UU-ARt98V: You are insane!
UU-ARt98V: Jade light spare me, alright give me a minute.
UU-ARt98V: Alright, I have them both, watching the video file now
UU-ARt98V: Oh Void, am I a prophet? I don't want to watch a judgment execution as a way to wind down for the night!
UU-19vX271: just watch andlisten to it
UU-ARt98V: You cruel man!
UU-ARt98V: Wait
UU-ARt98V: It started a bit in to the hearing. Who is that?
UU-19vX271: archimedean
UU-ARt98V: dont patronize me I can tell that much, but who?
UU-19vX271: do you recognize him?
UU-ARt98V: no. he is in high-illuminant garb too, he should be in the hall of luminaries. I would definitely remember him, I had to memorize them all just like you.
UU-19vX271: im not insane then
UU-ARt98V: Unfortunately. I have never seen him. A fake perhaps? Maybe that is why he is being
UU-ARt98V: wait no, the executor addressed him in full title. Maybe as mockery? I definitely do not recognize an Archimedean Leanthros from any records.
UU-ARt98V: Is that all you wanted to ask me about?
UU-19vX271: no watch it all
UU-ARt98V: You torture me so!

UU-ARt98V: what the hell was that
UU-19vX271: thats what im asking you
UU-ARt98V: well I dont recognize anything either. i have never heard of 'void tongue' before. i have never heard of this archimedean leanthros. why would this be in an entrati archive?
UU-19vX271: do you think he might have been stricken from the records for some reason?
Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
UU-ARt98V: they have never done that for any other judgment ceremony. Hell, normally they announce them.
UU-19vX271: how would we know if they ahd?
UU-ARt98V: You think whatever he was being executed for would warrant complete uncanonization?
UU-19vX271: id ont know
UU-19vX271: maybe he wasnt stricken what if this
UU-ARt98V: What if this-?
UU-19vX271: never mind. im going to keep looking for any information i can find about this archimedean or void tongue or something
UU-19vX271: something is wrong here
UU-ARt98V: Alright. I agree, something is not adding up. I am going to go try some of my connections as well, see if they recognize anything.
UU-19vX271: NO DO NOT
UU-19vX271: keep this quiet i dont want to involve anyone else
UU-19vX271: im sorry for involving you already
UU-ARt98V: Alright alright, hush hush. Will do. I AM going to do some research of my own though. You have me curious now!
UU-19vX271: ok be careful im not sure if an inquiry might trip something in the archive monitors
UU-ARt98V: Don't worry, I will talk around it. Oh also, I am surprised you didn't mention it in the transcript, but what was that person doing at the end?
UU-19vX271: the end?
UU-ARt98V: Yes, shortly before the file ended.
UU-ARt98V: Right after the Archimedean said he was offering himself and the corruption got worse, that other person walked out onto the the disk and started doing something?
UU-ARt98V: I could not tell what they were doing exactly, but the way they were moving was uncanny.
UU-ARt98V: Very strange.
UU-ARt98V: Hello?
UU-19vX271: disconnect right now. leave the file where it is. do not do anything until im there.

[File Begins, Appears to be missing some introduction. There's an Archimedean on the floor before the judgment disk, the Dax are still holding their blades at his neck. I can't tell how many Executors are in attendance, only one speaks throughout the hearing]
Executor (Sounds like Tuvul? The audio is poor): -willing to be so bold. Surely you would know that the punishment for this transgression would be death?
Archimedean (Leanthros? Unsure of proper spelling. They address him later): Indeed, my lords.
Tuvul?: And yet here you are! Do you mock us then? Do you sneer in the face of your golden lords and defy your judgment just?
Leanthros: Never! I come willingly to face my judgment in the hopes I may give you a message. A final plea to justify my actions. I entreat not to be spared from the death I deserve, but only to impart my reason for trespass.
Tuvul?: Aha! A final boon then! So be it, Archimedean Leanthros. You may have your boon. But know that we hold little value in the epitaph of a doomed fool.
[The Dax withdraw their blades. The Archimedean stands up and walks forward onto the judgment disk]
Tuvul?: So speak then Archimedean, for what have you consigned yourself to death?
Leanthros: It is in regards to the very espionage I am guilty of. It is...Dr Entrati has begun a new endeavor, and he
Tuvul?: HA! You best watch your words Archimedean, lest I withdraw your final mercy! You dare bring accusation against the man who hath opened the pathways of the gods?
Leanthros: No, my lords! He..His latest discovery, of which I am sure you have been informed. The auditory phenomena detected in Void manifestation. This...so-called Void tongue…
Tuvul: Indeed, we are aware of his findings. Meaningless byproduct of the fold, yes? Unless YOU claim to have some greater insight on the subject?
Leanthros: No, but…
[The Archimedean stops for a while, he keeps looking at something outside the record view. Planning his words?]
Leanthros: My lords, language is one of mankind's greatest creations, in every sense of the word.
It is capable of forming stories. Songs. Sharing knowledge.
And when wielded for darker purpose, bears the capacity for so much pain and death...Yet, for all its faults, language is a thing of creation! Of translating thought and theory into perceptible form.
But this Void tongue...it is a language of lack.
It does not create, it destroys.
It is a blade. Wielded by eldritch force to carve gaping wounds into the screaming flesh of our reality. What we mistake as speech, as SOUND, is nothing more than a byproduct, yes. Blood welling in the path of its ruinous carve. The sound of vacuum, reality rushing to fill the nothing left in the wake.
And while our plane is quick to heal, it does not always heal...cleanly. It forms scars. Scars that wreak havoc upon their surroundings, or form into things that were not ever meant to be.
And it is these scars that Dr Entrati wishes to study. But with each stroke of the knife, the world of dust becomes ever so slightly smaller. The far reaching edges, tightening, like a noose around our necks.
To intone the Void tongue is to invite entropy. It is to butcher reality and feed the cuts to a hunger beyond our ken.
But the blade does not discriminate between victim and wielder. To even hear the Void tongue is to have something taken. And you have heard it haven't you? You can see it in the eyes. That brilliance, ever so slightly dimmed.
And what has been lost can never be recovered.
It was ripped from you, and the tear was closed in an instant. What was taken, forgotten in the infinitesimally small moment between wound and weft.
And it will continue to take. It lingers, like smoldering flame. Eating away at you. Ever hungry. Never sated.
So I beg of you. Forbid this line of inquiry by Dr Entrati. Cast down the swords that he would raise against the very walls of the empire. YOUR empire. Do not cast open the gates and invite the thief to violate our souls, to take what you did not know was to be given.
[The Archimedean looks over his shoulder. At the Dax? They would have already searched him for weapons, but maybe he has one concealed? He clearly is planning something, though I can't imagine what. A suicide as protest perhaps? Wouldn't be the first. Forgive me, I digress.]
Leanthros: But without proof, what have I to support my claims? And so here, I shall offer myself unto you, my golden lords. I shall invoke that which should never be invoked, and illustrate in-
[The corruption intensifies here. The sound ceases, but the Archimdean seems to keep speaking for a few moments. Shortly after, the corruption completely overwhelms the visuals]
[More corruption, still no visuals or sound]
[File ends]
Leanthros was a fool. Never should have let me in. [https://i.imgur.com/5TuVkzh.png]
