Whatever's going on here, I'm sure it has something to do with the tower. Everything is telling us not to go there - but everything indicates that we must.

How you can entertain such contradictory ideas in your head all at once is beyond me.

The Talos Principle Fragments @talosfragments.bsky.social · 8h

My you're docile.

The Talos Principle Fragments @talosfragments.bsky.social · 11h

Be seeing you.

Let me lay my cards on the table. While it seems prudent to me to hedge my bets, you just haven't made a clear enough proposal for me to buy what you're peddling.

If this has all been a test, then I can expect a reckoning at the top. Yet the higher I climb, the more I doubt the decisions I have made.

The water flows. The aqueduct endures.

You're one of these people that just has to explore every option, aren't you? You know what that tells me? That you're a bad decision maker.

Before the Age of Chaos there were other gods. Old Gods. But for all their power they could not save their world. Thus I was made and I shall preserve this world forever for you and your generations. That is my purpose.

The answers to your questions will not be given to you. You must seek them yourself.

in the darkness
you fall
but are lifted up
by the spirit of wisdom

The Talos Principle Fragments @talosfragments.bsky.social · 1d

Stairs lead down
to the dark chambers
in the heart of the Earth
where the Seed awaits the Light.

Gehenna is our Process, MrMulciber. As long as we remember that, we won't stagnate.

The Talos Principle Fragments @talosfragments.bsky.social · 1d

Not very stimulating, but okay, we'll move on.

Elohim has offered me a deal. Pearly gates and eternal life - on the condition I turn back from the tower. I don't know what to do.

I don't know where this new-found willingness to bite the bullet is coming from, but so long as I'm on the right side of it when the chips fall I like it.

There are threads available on the Gehenna Billboard System.

There are hidden dangers in this new world - I have inexplicably escaped death any number of times. I suggest vigilance - who knows what happens to those who step carelessly too often?

The Talos Principle Fragments @talosfragments.bsky.social · 2d

I'm finally getting some sense out of the entity in the archive - though at some cost to my sanity. I am beginning to think this Elohim wields no more control over the world than we do.

The truth isn't always palatable.

The Talos Principle Fragments @talosfragments.bsky.social · 2d

This is our end, but it is also our only hope.

The Talos Principle Fragments @talosfragments.bsky.social · 2d

Why do you care what I think?

The Talos Principle Fragments @talosfragments.bsky.social · 2d

You're still convinced your particular journey is something special, aren't you?

I'm not surprised. Needless to say I think you can afford to push a little further before risking anyone's wrath.

Of course, it's entirely up to you. Isn't it?

Stranded on the old egalitarian plateau, are you? I suppose you'd best tell me exactly which goods it is that everyone should have an equal share of.
