hey guys in todays episode we're throwing ourselves off a cliff
Compiling a collection of Salvador lore before the event ends and all these crumbs disappear. They are literally driving me insane with grief.
First off, a collection of the stage stories with notes on the title changes for certain ones.
Stage 1: Request (levels titled "Claim" & D-tide level titled "Demand")
Stage 2: Struggle (levels titled "Contest", "Struggle", "Contention" & back to "Struggle")
Stage 3: Reproach (levels titled "Accusation" & D-tide titled "Condemnation")
Stage 4: Paranoia
Stage 5: Repentance (levels titled "Confession" & D-tide titled "Repentance")
The stage descriptions echoing his history/story and how they fucking lynched and burned him at the stake for not "saving them" as they wanted .... oughhh ⚰️
Within the stages themselves ofc you have the boon events. There are three of them.
First one is Desire and at first your only choice is to either face or turn away from the darkness.
[Choice chosen above was facing the darkness]
Later you get the chance to interact in the darkness again.
You’re actually encouraged to face the darkness here and get a sinful boon and, later on, pick up as many symptom cards as you can. The more “ill” and “broken” you are by the time you reach the final event, the “better” your rewards.
The second event is Repent.
If you chose to face the darkness in the first event, the result is often (in my opinion) much better than the random gold relic you get.
The final event is Redemption, which has various branches within it. At first you can only choose to seek external object or ask for blood. As you unlock the event nodes, you can ask for more. You can only ask for more, however, if you are carrying enough symptoms — in other words, you have to be “ill” and “demanding” enough. At that point, you can ask for flesh or his very soul to cure you.
There’s… there’s SO MUCH …. Here…. The fact that he so casually carves out pieces of flesh and bone to press into his tablet to heal people is fucking awful. His skin is littered with scars and stitches, I had no idea it was from himself carving offerings to demanding members of his flock. The fact that he is so willing to pull out parts (if not the whole) of his goddamn soul and use that to heal people when his own flesh and blood is not enough…..
Salvador……
Ending my grief with the event nodes, which make me want to SCREAM.
I’m sure you can interpret it as 3 separate people coming to him but honestly I see it as three halves of his own heart/soul: the sinner, the mottled, the ‘faithful’. Three, which is already such a meaningful number in religion to begin with….. and the fact that even the ‘faithful’ soul (colored grey) starts out on the path constructing a church for purely selfish reasons. Even later in that node’s trail, it still is not worshiping for the innocent desire to be one with the belief but simply bc money it conned from others built the church and what better way to show faith than to build a church, right?
The mottled soul is the lost and confused one — am I wrong? Will this last? I have to believe in the Father that This is the Right Path. It’s actually the one more aligned to truly believing.
And the sinful soul, mired in joy and blood. It echoes the rumors we heard about him in his story about a madman who wrought bloodshed and death wherever he went.
I’m just…. In grief…. There’s so much here. There’s so much to unpack…..
Salvador….
I’ve seen a lot of posts on my dash tonight about users who are threatening suicide, with other Tumblr members posting in effort to try to get ahold of them. I think you all should see this:
IF THERE IS EVER A TUMBLR USER WHO HAS POSTED A GOOD-BYE MESSAGE, SUICIDE NOTE, VIDEO, OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT, PLEASE FOLLOW THIS POST.
1. Scroll to the top of your dashboard.
2. See the circular question mark icon at the top? It’s the third one over from your home symbol. Click on that, and a screen similar to the one in the picture will come up.
3. Where you can type in questions, the box with the magnifying glass at the top, type in the word “suicide.”
4. Click on the first link that shows up. It should say, “Pass the URL of the blog on to us.”
5. Type in the user’s URL and tell Tumblr admin that the user is contemplating suicide and has posted a message indicating that they are going through with it or will be attempting. Hit send! Tumblr administration will perform a number of actions to contact the user and take the necessary steps to prevent the suicide.
TUMBLR: THIS COULD SAVE A USER’S LIFE. PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE SUICIDE THREATS.
Reblog this to keep other users aware. Suicide isn’t a joke, and neither is someone’s life. If you didn’t know this, someone else may not, either. Pass it on.
Ted bundy isn't ugly, you're just a lesbian
Congratulations, this is the worst ask I’ve ever gotten
my throat hurts
THIS IS A MOMENT IN HISTORY‼️‼️‼️ TAKE A PICTURE🗣️🗣️🗣️‼️‼️‼️
IT'S HIMMMMMMM
original meme from @mysillycomics
The entire point of proship ideology is believing because it is fiction, you can ship and do whatever. Which is wrong. And then they go and say that encouraging these types of ships won’t hurt anything. When fiction has a strong affect on reality. And they don’t believe that. Thats how racist propaganda has worked, and yet they don’t understand how proshipping hurts minorities aswell.
But this is where people go “but you’re romanticizing murderers” yeah, we are, but we aren’t endorsing their actions because its fiction. The Horror Genre didn’t develop real serial killers. We arent going out of our way to prove just how built different we are because we’re enjoying something morally bad within fiction. Proshippers also latch onto CHILDRENS MEDIA and make NSFW out of it and get MAD when KIDS enjoy the media that was MADE FOR THEM. Proshippers took their ideology of “its a fictional child” and use it to hurt real kids. We are taking unrealistic scenarios of murder and doing something like that.
Get it through your empty motherfucking skull. Get off anon and say it with your damn chest that youre a fucking brain dead freak, anon.
