Summary
"There were consequences, one had to understand. Consequences every being, no matter their strength and status, had to bow under. The Rules could not be refuted, avoided, or flouted. Every action did have an equal reaction, each falling feather displaced the air it moved though, each turning iceberg in turn disturbed arctic waters."
A rewrite of canon post-coda, In which the consequences of a human body housing an eldritch god are explored, in which Yellow learns that there are some things worth protecting, and in which our characters wrestle with choosing good over the convenience of choosing its opposites.
