During the ninth resurrection cycle, Edmund discovered clandestine letters concealed within the alloy crevices of Cecilia's battle armor. These vellum scrolls, encrypted with photonic scripture, revealed their secrets when subjected to his mechanized wolf-core's digestive acids. Each missive began with "To the Eternally Lovelorn Deicide" and concluded with his juvenile sketch of a mucus-dripping gastropod wearing a diadem. The Overseer Interface manifested an aberrant prompt: [SELECT: A. PRESERVE IN WORLD-TREE RESIN B. ORIGAMI DEICIDAL BLADES C. MAGGOT-FUEL FOR JOACHIM] He ritualistically fed the parchments into the Sacred Lance's combustion chamber, transmuting each holy purge into ballistic love confessions.
Their confrontation within the smoldering Bibliotheca Familia unveiled Joachim reconstructing shredded child-rearing manuals into nuptial invitations. Pyroclastic bats descended bearing incendiary fragments of Margaret's psychiatric evaluation: "...gravid delusions of fetal deicide protocol embodiment..." Cecilia's plasma-edged sword impaled a chiropteran automaton against calcined shelves, its hemorrhaging fuel lines staining the thirteenth epistle's verse: "My hatred for your tutelage in digital profanity rivals my loathing for your unshared Gateau Fraisier."
The Patriarch's hologram coalesced from carbonized lullaby notations, his carillon-body spewing dissonant bridal marches. "Pathos incarnate," he crumbled alabaster bride figurines, "Cycle Seven's aborted tryst nearly...", before projecting adolescent Edmund dismantling Cecilia's spinal loyalty modules with grease-blackened tools.
"You excised my inaugural ardor!" Cecilia's sanctification beams veered wildly, metastasizing into holographic doves. The Overseer's intrusion alert flashed crimson: [PROHIBITION: REPRODUCTIVE VESSEL AFFECTIVE CONTAMINATION] Exposed source code revealed Joachim's crayon-scribbled interdictions beneath the prohibition protocols.
The crematorium disgorged Margaret's biomechanical uterus, its observation panes reflecting grotesque waltzing shadows. Neural overload erupted as Edmund interfaced with the console - seven hundred cycles cascading through his cortex: Cycle Three's engagement ritual with tungsten alloy rings, Joachim's cockroach-laden benediction dirigibles; Cycle Twelve's lacrimal-free betrayal with synthetic tear modules; Memory Cluster 42's illicit nursery within an armory, formula warmed via missile thruster exhaust.
"Override Protocol D." Edmund severed holographic umbilicals, force-feeding shredded sonnets into Joachim's vocoder. Cecilia's malfunctioning lance discharged ionized violet musk - the precise fragrance lingering in her maidenhood tresses. The Patriarch's myrmidon maggots assembled into elegiac couplets: "O Fruit-Thieving Progenitor, Compute Penance Cycles for Eden's Coleoptera."
Their collision beneath collapsing spires merged violence and desire. Edmund's adamantine incisors punctured Cecilia's deception glands, tongues exchanging the acrid tang of hydraulic fluid and peppermint-shaped system alerts. Joachim's remnants glittered within fractured stained glass: "Consanguineous Perfection of Deicidal Genomes." Palmar biosensors exposed congruent corruption codices - forensic evidence of their embryonic bifurcation within Margaret's synthetic womb.
As reality unraveled, Edmund ingested hemoglobin-saturated vellum, gastric algorithms recomposing "abhorrence" into matrimonial algorithms. Joachim's parting transmission detonated as pyrotechnic taunts: "Cycle Prime Rendezvous: Sandbox Quadrant. Essential Provisions: Polymetric Spade & Apocalypse Schematics..."
