He wanted to ask many things.
How had THE Primordial Paradox opened a passage to The Interstices? What method had he used apart from what Noah knew from THE Mnemonic Leviathan? There were many questions!
But he focused on himself and the Immensity that he felt.
First, the Apophasis. A single one, but with three components!
|I am not limited by the weight that crashes against me. My existence is not incapable of bearing that which seeks to overwhelm it. I am not collapsible under the Immensity of what I have claimed.|
...!
In the future, whatever he had any weight of an absolute crashing against him, whenever he had any power seeking to overwhelm him...this Apophasis would be there to help him! And whatever Absolute he would collapse and claim in the future, this Apophasis would already be there like a bastion of protection!
Oh!
He stood like a primordial beast on the deck of Naglfar, his transformed figure radiating authority that pushed back against the undefined space around them. His wings spread wide, blue-gold feathers burning with linguistic power. His crown of burning books blazed above his head as he took in every single ounce of Depth left behind by a powerful Absolute.
The weight continued to flow into him.
But now, with his Apophasis in place, it no longer threatened to collapse him.
|Foundation Analysis - Updated|
|Integration of Absolute authority proceeding|
|The infinite potential of the weight and Immensity being inherited from THE Storm That Hungers is elevating your foundations significantly|
|Current status: The Immensity and weight of your Foundation at Fundamental Depth is now 68% comparable to that of THE Creature|
|However, after observing THE Primordial Paradox, I need to note something|
|Although not fully accurate due to limited data, the Foundation of your Fundamental Depth compared to THE Primordial Paradox when he was at Fundamental Depth before he became Absolute...|
|Is at 45% comparatively|
|THE Primordial Paradox built a grander foundation than THE Creature did at the same stage|
|Shall calculations be based on THE Primordial Paradox instead of THE Creature?|
BOOM!
The words from RUINATION were actually heavy.
They made a distinction between THE Creature and THE Primordial Paradox that Noah hadn’t considered before. Somehow, THE Primordial Paradox was actually the one who had built the grandest foundation compared to these beings. The one who had accumulated the most weight before making the leap to Absolute.
Of course, as she mentioned, this might not be fully accurate. If he met THE Creature again, the calculations might scale up to potentially show him as the one who led in foundational weight.
But as of right now, every other entity was left behind as THE Primordial Paradox pulled into the lead.
...!
Noah gave the silent command to utilize the comparative weight of THE Primordial Paradox as the new baseline.
|Recalibrating|
|Foundation of Fundamental Depth: 45% comparable to THE Primordial Paradox at equivalent stage|
|This is actually remarkable progress given the time differential|
|Additionally, I need to note something about the authority you’re currently absorbing|
|As THE First Tongue, the Way of THE Paradox of Consumption can theoretically be embodied as a Derivative Civilization|
|However, it is too similar to your existing Derivative Civilization of Hunger|
|The Derivative Civilization of Hunger is currently moving within your existence|
|It has begun consuming the Immensity that stands as THE Paradox of Consumption|
|When the Derivative Civilization of Hunger finishes devouring everything that is the Civilization of THE Paradox of Consumption, its Immensity and standing can be pushed above Fundamental|
|It can become Half-Step Absolute|
|You can make the choice on whether to allow your Derivative Civilizations to take this step to Half-Step Absolute while your main Way and Civilization continues across its Formless Depth|
|Your core remains where it needs to be before making the jump to Absolute, it disdains Half-Step|
|But your derivatives can advance ahead of you|
BOOM!
...!
Inside all of his existence, Noah felt like countless jaws of hunger had erupted.
They were chomping down on the Immensity of Impundulu that was crashing all around him, devouring the authority that had threatened to collapse him moments before. The Derivative Civilization of Hunger was not waiting for permission. It was already feeding, already growing, already reaching toward something that Noah himself had not yet grasped.
