* Alter: Should you make a fow to the Lord your God, you shall not delay fulfilling it, for the Lord your God will surely require it of you and there would be an offense in you.

The utterance of your lips you shall keep, and you shall do as you have vowed in the Lord your God, the freewill gift that you spoke with your mouth.

* [X] [May's monologue, Ioan's critique](002) --- May's writing a monologue, so she delivers what she has to Ioan who offers a critique. It's about her own history, so they get to talking about her past

* [X] CHAPTER Debarre? 2350
* [X] [Something innocent](005) --- something innocent to break it up a bit. Debarre and End Waking being *really* furry, maybe? Rebuilding the rammed earth back wall of the tent? Maybe a flood took the old one out?

* [X] [Coffee date - Jan 2350 (TN's No Way 1)](008) --- Assassination attempt (actual assassination may not be until most of the way through a few thousand words after talking with May), the fact that Ioan's been meeting with TN's root instance hits home

* [X] *To hone is to trade ends for perpetual perfection* --- The danger in ceaseless memorialization is just how close it lies to idolatry.

* [O] Apprehension --- EW merges down and TN has to deal; Ioan and May have to consider ramifications

* [X] [May and TN's Wallow 2](026) --- May's feeling bad because she can't help, also starting to agree with Ioan: not fair to them as a couple for TN to have those memories

* [X] [Choose love: Ioan and May](028) --- Ioan expands on this when they're alone, and they talk about how TN won't just have May's memories wholesale, she'll have a synthesis.

* [O] Reconciliation --- After the merge and TN's collapse, she has to process two centuries of memories while Ioan and May have to process the results of the merge
* [X] *The living know that they will die / but the dead know nothing.* --- By our very act of knowing, of remembering, of denying our own deaths, the dead are left in limbo, for every idea's opposite is the absence of that idea, and we can no longer grant them that.
* [X] CHAPTER Ioan 2350
* [X] [Plan and risk](029) --- they plan together on how to make this a more deliberate thing than the merger with EW, setting up a nest in which she can process comfortably, Ioan lays in supplies, TN negotiates boundaries and how they'll shift, May merges down
* [X] [Grand gesture](030) --- TN processes, cries a lot, they talk about what this means (acknowledging that talking boundaries is a new thing for TN) It goes well enough that her fork quits
* [X] CHAPTER Debarre 2350
* [X] [Result for EW](031) --- EW and Debarre talk about how they both feel about TN's mergers and how this could go either way for EW: he feels better about TN, but now he's listless and unsure of how he feels about the clade given how much of his identity was bound up in rejecting TN.
* [X] [Result for Jonas and Debarre](032) --- They talk about how this is working for Jonas, how it's dangerous because it gives Jonas & Co an opening through May's known weaknesses (less his because they haven't studied him nearly so much), how EW was requested to be there. Maybe some more about reactive elements? Debarre comes home to talk with e.g: user11824?
* [X] CHAPTER Ioan 2350
* [X] [TN's path forward](033) --- TN decides she's ready to start planning the meeting, has a better idea of what she'll become (maybe merge down? See where it goes)
* [X] [Ioan sets the meeting up](034) --- Ey's acting as amanuensis and as close to a neutral party as there is, and Jonas is all asmirk at this. They head out, and are greeted by Zacharias, Ioan is struggling with anger, they're going to meet up in a week.
* [X] [They meet, they talk, TN changes](035) --- Jonas talks about how the upcoming changes require a different kind of stability for continuity and TN just isn't gonna cut it, gives ultimata for her continued existence. TN becomes Sasha, and now she's all asmirk.
* [X] [Something innocent](036) --- The aftermath. They get Serene to basically duplicate Arrowhead Lake in place of Sasha's field, etc Sasha works on finding a new purpose, realizes it's going to be a long process.
* [X] [Epilogue](037) Ioan and Sasha are drifting closer together as hinted at in 002, but this should a) look like it's going to end happily and b) be an active and open conversation because I am completely unwilling to lose any of them.
* [X] *To deny the end is to deny all beginnings, / and to deny beginnings is to become immortal, / and to become immortal is to repeat the past.* --- It has been a quarter of a millenium since their death, and yet less than a quarter of a thousand people know their name. Fitting, then, that I tell you the story of the poet and the one true origin of our world, of our very own ghost in the system, of the whispers in your dreams and the one who binds us to immortality.
