"Sometimes I wonder, what if this was the way things should have been? And the way it was before wasn't? Is it infinite recursion? How many times does this have to happen? How many times must we replay the same tragedies? Do the dark pretenders feel this sting worse? Is there any way to just break these chains forever and free us all of an infinite recursion?"

THE TABLE WAS ALL WRONG!
The oldest fumed! The trickster and the youngest and their games, worse the plagued one. All their meddling! The game was ruined! Nothing made sense!
The table was upended and nothing made sense. The shadow moved, gaining power, the golden light playing it's tricks. Then there were the outsiders.
Only the trickster knew about it, or so the trickster thought.
The Eldest Knew about it before the trickster. The outsider was always there. It's meddling wasn't noticed by the trickster till now. It put the Golden piece on the board.
Of Course the plagued one wanted it. And now the piece was unplayable. Gone. It would wreck havoc on the board and bite the plagued one on the hand later. Like the trickster thought.
Then the youngest full of ambition wanting a perfect game went for the shark, and now the shark behaved EVEN MORE ERRATIC. THAT WASNT SUPPOSED TO BE POSSIBLE.
The table was the mess.
Yet.
The eldest could clear the board. Could sweep the table. Two powerful pieces. One taken, one moved. The eldest didn't want the wolf. Nor the bat. The hawk was tempting, it was perfect, but it was also as strange as the bat. They wouldn't perform as expected. Too much like the old angel piece that was removed. Far Too wild.
YET.
If the wolf was made stronger. It would be the perfect piece. Then he caught it.
The bat moved.
On it's own.
The outsider made it's turn.
The fiery piece, moved, just a bit. It was now in a place that changed things entirely, probably by the shadow.
The shark flopped about disrupting the table. Worse was the sharks singing. The castle being hard to even move around was annoying enough, but the sharks annoying song angered the eldest even more than usual.
The wolf would become strong. So the eldest trapped the wolf. It would either adapt overcome and be the strongest piece on the board, or it would die and the hawk would be the next piece.
The Trickster cringed at this play.
<span class="mu-i"> <span class="mu-r"> good. let them. </span></span> The eldest thought.
