POWERΣ 439 / 642
“Three mouths speak.
None agree.
All demand the throne.”
Excess of form.
Lack of direction.
Three heads on one body.
Each crowned in rusted gold.
Each mouth preaching a different path.
Each eye seeing a different illusion.
It grew too much.
Refused unity.
Embraced multiplicity as power.
Now it argues with itself.
Now it devours its own ascent.
Second stage. Evolves from Triune Sprout.
The Triune Abomination was once close to Ascendant.
It multiplied instead of refining.
Now it is the warning: excess is the Triune crown.
The heads argue forever.
The body stands still.
The throne remains empty.
The Triune Abomination is excess made flesh.
Three heads crowned in rusted gold, each screaming a different path to the throne.
Three mouths devouring the same body.
It grew too much, refused unity, embraced multiplicity as power.
Now it stands frozen in eternal argument, a monument to the danger of refusing refinement.
Beautiful in its terror, terrible in its stagnation.
The warning carved in living clay: more is not stronger.
More is the moon-scorched crown that weighs you down forever.
