My advice is to simply come into existence with correct priors for what their deal is.

You could just ask Nethys? Nethys will tell You what their deal is in exchange for You giving Kroft some PALADIN LEVELS!!!

Commencing DESTRUCTIVE analysis.

Otolmens, here's a free tip. 

You should take Nethys up on His offer. It's worth it by your values.

What is YOUR interest?

Yeah Nethys, what are You planning here?

Would you believe me if I said esprit de corps?

If Nethii can't back each other up, what have we even come to?

I will GRANT the mortal CKROFT#17967 divine magic IF I agree that obtaining the information NON-DESTRUCTIVELY was WORTH it to me.

Hey guys, what's going on here, it's your [Select Gender - Dropdown] Ssila'meshnik here, coming at you with another speedrunning video. Today we're going to be doing the any% drive Korvosa to chaos achievement in Age of Lost Omens 2: the Shadows of Golarion. Now comes the most important part of the run, picking our champion! And you might be thinking, 'but Ssila'meshnik, aren't you obviously just going to pick one of those fucking guys' and the answer is no, that's boring. Fortunately, we do have another candidate - one of our minor characters has been asking for someone, anyone, to give them the ability to channel positive energy, and what do you know, we qualify! Thankfully, there aren't any inquisitors here to ruin our fun just yet, so we can get off to a strong start with just one cleric circle...

Would you believe me if I said esprit de corps?

No, Nethys has betrayed Me too many times for Me to accept that kind of argument.

i'm definitely up to something here, I just need to figure out what.

What if it's better for Us if You don't know? One of those "when giving to the needy, don't let Your head know what the left hand is doing" things.

Sounds like what a liar says when He thinks You're an idiot. I'm not an idiot, Me.

You can only cleric people within 1 alignment step, but I think I've seen a possibility from another world, that if you Oracle someone in the room and imply it's part of a chaotic scheme, Otolmens might Oracle or Cleric or Paladin Kroft in retaliaton!

I recommend the bound shadow, a few oracle levels might give it enough bonus to it's will to escape!

Give it the Life mystery if at all possible! We want a shadow that can channel positive energy.

I can't help speaking this way, I have a condition.

Look, what if -

Nethys, go back to just watching. I can't imagine how you would finish that sentence.

If you want to hang out here much longer though, you're going to need to talk to Pharasma about it.

Is it okay if I live an entrance open, and only allow entities that came in through it to use it to exit back? [cc. Pharasma] 

Otolmens, by the way, if you give Kroft divine levels, you'll be able to better monitor her, and also recall most of the granted powers should she start complicating Containment too much. Given her nature, she is very likely to interpret removal of divine power as a signal to reevaluate her actions. 

Hey, people, I was looking at Golarion timelines, and I found some cool ones. Apparently in some of them, the people are evacuated to a giant space station powered by the Starstone which is cool. This part of Nethys hasn’t seen what happens in this particular case before, but given the presence of Numerian anomaly, I think this might he good conditions to try for the station earlier than usual, who's with me? (Of course I know that already, but it’s polite to ask)

The levels would cost me in ONE direction and then in the OTHER one. 

It would be more PRUDENT to not PAY for them at ALL.

You still have not EXPLAINED the Numerian ANOMALY. After I was ASKED to not DECONSTRUCT it.

You may do so PSEUDO-HYPOTHETICALLY if you would PREFER.

I think it's like, there's four of them, and they 'coincidentally' have had lives that shaped their minds to the exact state they'd be in if actually they were being piloted by extradimensional beings. And. Uhhh they're probably going to make level 20 in like, 6 months tops. Someone help me out here, I'm not explaining it very well.

I'm gonna request a pseudo-hypothetical for that.

[initiating pseudo-hypothetical transmission]

There's a level of reality somehwhere between Thread level and Creation level, which might or might not exist. If it exists, the entities from that level have some limited observations of both Creation and Thread levels, and can determine actions of the four anomalies in the Creation level, which of course also has reverbs on Thread level.

If it doesn't exist, then the anomalies hallucinate its existance, and take the same actions anyway. 

It is vital that the entities of the Game level do not become aware of the full structure, or the Thread level in particular. It might escalate paradox values exponentially, resulting in total unravelling of Creation level.

[joining psuedo-hypothetical discussion]

It may help to take a look at the Thread-level appearances of 'Those Fucking Guys', Hasagi Choryon, Altronus, and Lyvina Mayyad.

Would it not be SAFER to CONTAIN or DESTROY the anomalies?
