Chapter 4937: Temporal Infinity III
Amser Modred!
Noah stared at this man that he had always known as THE Living Temporal. The purple rivers of time that surrounded the Absolute now shimmered with glimmers of blue-gold. The desperation that had filled those ancient eyes moments ago had faded, replaced by complexity that only someone who had just traded freedom for survival could possess.
There were many ways to go about things with him.
Noah could have let him be consumed. He could have watched the infection claim another Absolute and added THE Living Temporal to the growing list of beings lost to THE Primordial Mycelia.
But as he continued receiving tremendous harvest, as THE Infinite Observable Harvest and the harvest of One Fourth of a Primordial Architect flowed into his existence with force that made his foundations expand, more Infinite Everythings and Absolute Everythings formed within him.
He could afford to give one.
Frankly, THE Living Temporal was an enemy. But sometimes, one needed to do things differently. Because if he had gone ahead and not helped, THE Entity would have gained the capability to traverse and infect across time.
An infection that could reach backward into moments already passed. A rot that could claim beings before they even knew they would be claimed. A unity that could establish itself in the past and simply wait for the present to catch up.
He had effectively eliminated this possibility.
And in addition to this...
Prompts bloomed before his eyes.
|Infinite Everything Integration Complete|
|An Infinite Everything has been ingested by the subject, Amser Modred. The foreign undifferentiated authority of THE Primordial Mycelia has been burned away by the Infinite nature that now permeates his Civilization of Temporal. The infection that had been claiming his existence piece by piece has been expelled entirely. Amser Modred retains his identity, his memories, and his ambitions.|
|However, his Civilization of Temporal now exists beneath the authority of your First Tongue. This hierarchy cannot be altered through conventional means. Amser Modred’s growth will always occur under the umbrella of your Infinite authority. It always has, it always will. Temporal...has always been under your feet this whole time.|
...!
|New Quality Acquired|
|Your Infinities have grasped the temporal weavings of Existence through Amser Modred’s bound Civilization. Your First Tongue has gained the quality of Undifferentiated Temporal Infinity. This quality allows you to interact with time in ways that were previously impossible for your Civilization.|
|At any time of your choosing, you can make the Civilization of Temporal a Derivative Civilization fully integrated into your existence. However, you already enjoy its core weavings through the subject Amser Modred, who has now been bound under THE First Tongue.|
...!
|Applications of Undifferentiated Temporal Infinity|
|Elevation of Temporal Traversal and THE Existential Paradox Loop. Through The Interstices, set coordinates of points in time can be traversed to with more precision. Also, your ability to simulate potential outcomes has been enhanced exponentially. You can now perform Temporal Simulations of potential futures and pasts without requiring any Moirai Threads.|
|Accelerated Cultivation of Depths and Sacred Resources. You can apply Undifferentiated Temporal Infinity to the cultivation of your people’s foundations, allowing them to experience eons of training and growth within moments of Observable Existence. Beings within your Civilization can be placed in temporal environments where their Depths advance through accumulated effort that doesn’t consume time from the outside world. Additionally, you can apply this authority to the growth of Sacred Herbs in your Early Veiled Shore. Plants that would require eons to bloom can now be cultivated through temporal manipulation that doesn’t consume those eons from Observable Existence. Wonders that only bloom in the face of Infinities can be grown in controlled environments where time flows according to your will. Your dream role as a farmer has become significantly more relevant to your path of power.|
|Temporal Refuge Construction. You can create spaces where time flows differently than in Observable Existence, allowing for training and recovery that doesn’t consume time from the outside world. THE Yggdrheim could be enhanced with such properties, providing your people with unlimited time to overcome their challenges with undifferentiation.|
|Temporal Inscription Composition. When writing Inscriptions through THE First Tongue, you can now incorporate temporal elements that cause your Embodiments and Apophasis to affect targets across multiple moments simultaneously. An Inscription that would normally strike once can strike across the target’s past and present and future, causing damage that compounds through their timeline.|
|Harvest Optimization. You can apply Undifferentiated Temporal Infinity to your Infinite Observable Harvest, causing resources to flow toward you from moments that haven’t occurred yet or from moments that have already passed. This creates harvest streams that exceed what present-moment collection could provide.|
BOOM!
Noah’s existence buzzed with the implications of these prompts!
He had Infinite Undifferentiated Fate and Infinite Hunger as separate bodies entirely, currently in the process of becoming Absolutes. Their transformation was occurring even now, their foundations crossing that impossible step with ease.
And he had gained the quality of Undifferentiated Temporal Infinity!
At a time when it felt like THE Primordial Mycelia was winning on many fronts, when THE Secretive Eon had just claimed the four Strategoi of THE Agora, it was good to have this victory against it.
Preventing it from accessing time was a heavy thing!
An infection that couldn’t reach through temporal pathways was an infection that could be cornered. An infection that couldn’t establish itself in the past was an infection that could be traced to its origins. An infection that couldn’t claim the future before it arrived was an infection that could be outmaneuvered.
He had just removed one of THE Primordial Mycelia’s most dangerous potential capabilities.
He even looked at Amser Modred as he awaited his answer on exactly how he had kept the infection at bay for so long. The question wasn’t merely curiosity, though curiosity certainly played a role.
Understanding how THE Living Temporal had resisted could provide insights into fighting this thing on larger scales.
He knew part of it was the Depth of this being. Amser Modred was a powerful Absolute, one of the strongest in Observable Existence below THE Four. His foundations possessed weight that most beings couldn’t match. That weight alone would have slowed any infection.
But the other?
There had to be something else. Something about time itself that made THE Primordial Mycelia struggle to claim him completely.
Noah looked at THE Living Temporal, who gazed at him with an ancient expression filled with complexity. The purple rivers of time that surrounded him continued shimmering with blue-gold glimmers, a constant reminder of what had just changed.
Eventually, Amser Modred sighed.
He closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them again, the complexity had settled into something closer to tired honesty.
"Time is not merely a river that flows from past to future."
His voice emerged with weight that came from eons of intimate understanding.
"It is also a record. Every moment that occurs is inscribed into existence itself. The past doesn’t disappear. It remains, written into the foundations of reality in ways that cannot be erased."
He paused, temporal currents swirling around him with increased intensity.
"That infection... it seeks to decompose individual consciousness into unified soil. It wishes to make the many become one. But the past records who you were before the infection began. Every moment of your existence prior to contact remains inscribed in time."
His eyes met Noah’s with understanding that only someone who had just fought this battle could possess.
"I used my Temporal authority to constantly anchor myself to past moments. Moments when I was fully myself. Moments when no infection had touched my consciousness. Every time the infection tried to claim a piece of my identity, I reached into the past and pulled that piece forward again. I was essentially restoring myself from temporal backups that existed before the contamination."
He shook his head slowly.
"It wasn’t a solution. It was a delaying action. The infection was reaching further and further back, trying to claim those backup moments as well. Eventually, it would have reached the moment of my birth, and then..."
He didn’t need to finish the sentence.
"But the principle remains. The infection struggles with temporal anchoring because its methodology requires continuity of infection. If you can break that continuity by reaching to moments before the infection existed..."
His eyes blazed with purple light that now held glimmers of blue.
"You can restore what was lost. You can pull identity forward from moments when that identity was still intact. Time is the ultimate record of who we were before we became what we are now."
...!
Noah absorbed these words with perception that was already beginning to process their implications.
Temporal anchoring!
Reaching into moments before infection.
Pulling identity forward from the past!
If beings could be connected to moments when they were uninfected, those moments could serve as templates for restoration. THE Primordial Mycelia couldn’t claim what it had never touched. And if what it had touched could be overwritten by what it hadn’t touched...
A possibility was forming in his mind.
A terrible, wonderful, incredibly complex possibility!
He would need time to develop it fully. He would need to understand more about how THE Entity operated, about its limitations, about the boundaries of its methodology. But for the first time since learning about THE Primordial Mycelia’s true nature, he felt like he was looking at a path toward genuine solution.
Noah smiled slightly as he looked at Amser Modred.
"Temporal anchoring. Restoration from moments before contamination. Using the past as a record that the infection cannot fully claim..."
His smile widened.
And the purple rivers of time surrounding THE Living Temporal shimmered with increased intensity!
