# '''Temptation''': '''Union''': FNORD
# '''Dedication''': '''Union''': I have dedicated myself to the pursuit of greater unity in all its dangerous, pervasive grandeur. I will have to give of myself if I am to rise, or to fall.# '''Ascension''': '''Union''': FNORDSolitude, surrendered! I have let Their first shard into me. I can feel it blossom in the depths of my being into a delicate rose. I won't ever be alone again, and Their whisper will guide my steps. I will have to make deeper incisions if I am to bloom into a garden.# '''Ascension''': '''Union''': FNORD, surrendered! # '''Ascension''': '''Union''': FNORDSecrets, surrendered!# '''Ascension''': '''Union''': FNORDThoughts, surrendered!
# '''Ending''': '''IN MY DREAMS, MANY FLOWERS''': I go to sleep for the very last time. I will find Their roots in the Mansus and let Them surround me, like a cocoon or a hungry snake. What is left of me will be torn to pieces and reassembled. I am me, but I am myself no longer. I have let others into my soul and I have let others borrow its pieces. I am fuller than ever, my colors are so bright, now. I will not die, decay won't find me, but eventually, I will end. And once it finally happens, I won't sink into the Mansus-soil— I will be held by Their roots, and then, my story will find another beginning...

# '''Descent''': '''Union''': THEY are NNOT to be contained<br>i feel my mind UN-RA-VE-LING<br>i am falling<br>i am drowning<br>I MUST CLIMB BACK
# '''Ending''': '''ALL THAT IS LEFT OF ME''': Where will They find me? I am not here. I've left behind too many parts in my pursuit. Now there is nothing, only Them. They have filled the hollows in my soul like water, now, They are becoming more myself than I am. And all that is left of me is spiraling deeper, deeper, deeper-

==Names==
They don't have any Names, They can't have any Names, They won't have any Names. They don't want to part with Themselves, so They won't. But They also can't, because anyone elevated this high will join Them like a drop of oil in a running river.
Poor Calixtus...

===The Mansus===
====The Grove Entangled====Their roots run deep in the Mansus, but it's in the Woods where they are the deepest, where they could be mistaken for oak trees. It's in the Woods Grove Entangled where They gather and care for the dead.
