*record scratch*

Hey, its Ishani. Your bestfriend Ishani. It’s me, live and in stereo. Settle in. Because I’m about to tell you the story of my life. More specifically, why my life ended. And if you’re listening to this tape, you’re one of the reasons why.

broke my heart, mended it and broke it again. R.F. Kuang you are a genius and i love you but my god im never healing.

“Who is the true god.” “Chaos,” he says.
this is so. im jumping from the ledge sorry.

But Nezha knows divinity. It’s fathomless. It is not something that can be measured or studied; can’t be described through meticulously constructed logic. The forces that dreamed up this world are the opposite of rational. Divinity isn’t knowable. It’s the Dragon in the grotto. It’s the Dragon inside him. It’s the three madmen who united a nation and tore themselves apart. It’s pain, eternity, and terror. It’s endless, all-consuming fire. It’s her.

HE PISSES ME OFF IM SO MAD ?!?! .

Rin or the Hesperians. Rin or military aid. Rin or victory. Only now has Nezha come to accept this. There is no future where Rin and the Republic coexist, because everything about her is antithetical to what they are trying to accomplish. There’s no space for Rin in the world they’re trying to build, and the unavoidable truth of this kills him. He loves her. Of this he’s certain.
