hey. what's your shadow like?
trust me i get why nobody wants to talk about this whole thing. neither do i. but it kinda seems like we ought to compare notes and we can do it anonymous. or you can just use this to vent about how your shadow's an asshole idc
mostly i just keep seeing people say stupid shit and claim it was their shadow and i can't tell if this is just a case of your_experiences_are_not_universal.jpeg (sorry. obviously i don't have the meme on me) or if i'm going crazy. bcuz mine is so quiet i can't even tell it's there usually. so what's the deal???
(before you say i must be a good person who doesn't have much of a dark side: lol. but i'm not some evil psychopath who already acts on their worst impulses either)
and has anyone had any luck getting theirs to fuck off?

Ah, I made it sound a bit too simple, I guess. There are layers to the underworld. I guess that the flaming pit of hell that is described by many people here is the closest thing to Asphodel.
But, if this is purgatory, hell, or some sort of strange heaven, wouldn't the presence of that god (or the ruler of this underworld) be more, ah, known?
no subject
they talk about ascension and oblivium though. and it's hard not to notice that it sounds a lot like moving on to heaven/hell from purgatory
no subject
I suppose you're right.
In my perspective, there are those who are in layers of Hades whose fate wasn't determined by their actions, piety, or thoughts. I've known those who have been cursed by the mere fact that another god decided to do something to them.
[Looking at you, Daphne, Medusa, Arachne...]
Have we seen anyone ascending or headed to oblivium, though?
no subject
man. growing up catholic was a nightmare but at least you can't get condemned to hell just because.
we have definitely not seen anything. it's written about in some library books, but i haven't talked to any restless that have seen it personally either

[He's always unsure of using this new lingo but he's trying and he hopes whoever this anon is understands it.]
But seriously, it's not always like that. Dionysus' mother was a mortal, for instance.
Oh, ah, do you know who Dionysus is?
Well, that's something worth investigating, isn't it? I'll see if I can find anything.
