"That which can be destroyed by the truth should be."
-- P. C. Hodgell, Seeker's Mask.
"We work in small cells and this is a suicide mission that plausibly ends with me in Hell, I don't know anything like how we got the tip. The symbol is two curved lines, like so, it's some kind of economic theory thing. Abadar's not worth serving, though, He isn't doing anything about all of the suffering in the universe, he fought against Rovagug -"
"Okay, look, if this is actually real and you hanging around here is going to get you sent to a place of eternal suffering then you need to tell me how to get back in touch with you people and then Teleport the fuck away from wherever this is."
Ten feet are backstepped. "If what you say is true I'm going to have to magically hide when I'm out of Cheliax, how do I get a message to you."
"Wrong priority. You pushed too hard there, at the end. We do not want them figuring out that this mission failed and repeating it, and that is a higher priority than tracking down one cell of Rovagug cultists."
Can Cayden Cailean please have authorization for an intervention in the prohibited zone?
The why is that Cayden Cailean has spotted a band of Rovagug-aligned mortals who are about to target the anomaly-securing-containing-and-protecting installation constructed by Asmodeus, in order to kidnap the anomaly and try to get him to destroy the universe. This is Cayden Cailean being very legible about that.
Cayden Cailean requests permission to update his oracle's curse with an information packet, after which Cayden promises that his oracle will stop the Rovagug-aligned mortals from obtaining the anomaly.
Then there will be more Rovagug-aligned mortals later!
Cayden Cailean's oracle will make the Rovagug cultists believe they succeeded at their mission, which will diminish the incentive for them to try it again.
This will go a little better with some subtlety, Otolmens.
...FINE. Cayden Cailean is authorized to carry out that ONE intervention ONCE.
A lot of things happen very fast under conditions like this one. It's not even that Security believes Snack Service about the cultists but not about the thirty-minutes part. It's just, this is sort of what Security is programmed to do.
Keltham and Pilar are now in the (official that Keltham knows about) saferoom! Carissa Sevar and Ferrer Maillol and Jacint Subirachs have all just been shoved into it! And some of the more powerful Security! It all happened very quickly!
Other tier-1 researchers are going to a different saferoom, this one is at capacity.
"Rovagug cultists? I guess everyone else is involved, so why not." She would like Keltham not to be curious about the Rovagug cultists's motives - no, lost cause. She would like Keltham not to ask the Rovagug cultists' motives. And not to find it suspicious if they aren't taken alive. "- is this definitely real Keltham - Keltham say something that no one raised on Golarion could come up with -"
"That'd be easier if I wasn't half-asleep and my mind wasn't only generating things like 'reasons why masochists shouldn't exist' that anybody could've gotten off my transcripts if they had access to those... uh, really simple math I haven't covered. Uh. It's a trivial theorem that most useful proof systems can't prove themselves unable to prove a contradiction, because if they could, the hypothesis that they proved a contradiction would yield a contradiction, and then assumable provability would give you that a contradiction is actually provable."
Snack Service is having a telepathic argument about whether to actually stop and Maledict the cultists! Why are Asmodeans so suspicious every time Snack Service suggests not sending somebody to Hell? If the cultists know they've failed, they'll think they have to try it again!
Also, Cheliax might possibly want to observe how the Rovagug cultists are going to get past all their careful security. Because they totally would have if not for Snack Service!
