i have the feeling that the silver isn't a thing you can kill, or destroy, or even harm really

like undying nuclear waste, the best thing you can do is bury it in concrete and hope it isn't unearthed any time in the next few millenia

You know, this only just occurred to me. Wasn't it confirmed awhile back that the ocean is beyond the reach of the Khert?

If they actually do manage to flood that thing out, all those miserable souls will be trapped in pain at the bottom of the ocean forever. Kinda bleak, unless I'm misremembering something.

well, they aren't really souls. not whole souls, anyway. just the pain and trauma and grief and all that jazzy fun stuff.

honestly by comparison to what they've been doing in the khert just feedbacking off each other, soaking in the black brine doesn't sound so bad

so uh, what's going outside of the continent then

isn't the khert basically the underlying code of reality, to use an awful overused metaphor

does the world just recede into endless sea?

i feel like the khert is the sort of thing where you could make something real, but there's also stuff that's always been real and not just retroactively

right, yeah, and their throats are open, revealing their trachea and such. This was revealed ages ago with the fully grown water women, so I guess I don't get why it's somehow new or worse with the water girls.

unsounded update page posted:

No one wants what you’re offering, snakeman Still, it must be terribly frustrating to have experienced for yourself just how happy a person can be relieved of their memories, and yet find everyone you meet so reluctant to give them up. Confounding creatures.

also unrelated stuff from tumblr, a hearty lmao:

cope posted:

Murkoph wants out! Murkoph suffers from the same hunger that harasses Duane but Murkoph doesn’t care to try and ignore it. Want to know why he was naked when Sette found him? ‘Cause over the long years of his imprisonment he’d eaten his clothes.

also those memories of his that ruck's eating? they're gone, forever, lost to the khert. its unclear how important that actually is (the khert seems to just record human memories, whatever it does probably doesnt make a difference to the dead) but every culture believes the khert is their afterlife/reincarnation checkpoint. to them, ruck is literally eating their souls
