"If you can get me the rest, I can likely make some real progress on it. Let me know when you do. On another topic, Lord Io suggested I learn the Words of Creation from you."

[Nephrite]

Moore puffs his cheeks up for a moment as if he's thinking.

"I don't know if those are something I can teach you." He says. "But... maybe. I might be able to teach you the meanings, but I don't know if I can teach you how to use them... hmm. I can try, but I can't promise you anything." He says. "Although I do know someone who helped me learn more about them, so maybe it's possible with her assistance."

[Iron Dragoon]

"Who might that be?"

[Nephrite]

"Her name is Xandra." Moore says. "She's a trumpet archon who's part of my... uh..." He gestures. "Group? I don't know what you want to call them. Bonds, I suppose is a good word." He says. "She'd probably know more about teaching the Words than I would. But why is it you want to learn them, exactly?"

[Iron Dragoon]

"The way Lord Io talked about them and the Ones... While I don't think there's a direct connection, depending on how the Words work, it might require the same... Mindset? Thought processes? I don't have a solid handle on what the Words of Creation are, exactly, but my instinct tells me it's something I should work on and with Lord Io's recommendation on top of it... Well, I can't really ignore the chance to study and learn them, even if it just leads me to a better understanding of creation. With that alone, who knows what might be accomplished."

[Nephrite]

"That's fair." Moore says with a smile. "As for what the Words are... I have some ideas myself, but let me go find Xandra and we can kind of start from the beginning." Moore says.

Moore will indeed go and get Xandra!!

[Anastasia]

Xandra thus is fetched, entering the room. "Moore," Xandra says, "If we are going to keep meeting in your bedroom, we need to expand your bedroom."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa instantly shoots Jarem a level look, daring him to make a comment.

[Nephrite]

"I probably should've just converted the war room, but this will just have to do." Moore says. "I'll make sure it gets expanded." He promises.

"Xandra, this is Alyssa and Jarem." Moore explains. "They're both part of another group that's been blessed by Io." He says. "Alyssa is here to learn the Words of Creation, which... I don't know how complicated a task that is, so I wanted to ask you and get your opinion, as I've never been taught how to use the basic ones, just advanced the use of the ones I seemed to have."

[Anastasia]

Jarem smirks slightly but says not a word.

"Very well," Xandra says, "First of all: What do you know of the Words, Alyssa?"

[Iron Dragoon]

"Almost nothing except that they exist. I can hazard a guess at the risk of cementing preconcived notions."

[Anastasia]

"The Words of Creation are said to be the words used to forge Creation," Xandra says, "The most righteous and crusading of us can learn a few, and with that comes great power."

[Nephrite]

"To add a little bit more, though I don't want to confuse anything..." Moore begins, "It seems like the Words of Creation are some sort of language from Beyond that was adapted to be used in Creation."

[Iron Dragoon]

"Beyond? Hmm... Then there might be someone... Thing... In limbo that might get a faster handle on it, though translating their insanity is an effort of it's own. Hmm.. a concept and understanding of a thing that imposes order onto chaos... Much like Ao."

[Anastasia]

"The Words are also a thing of righteousness, at least in Creation," Xandra says, "Yet if they were used by the Incarnations, and the Incarnations do not know good and evil?"
