Lost in the discourse about where Dems are is the fact Republicans know the anti-trans ads aren't helping them but, as Terry here openly admits, hurting trans people is all they have left. They'd use their dying breath to ruin one more trans kid's life.

Swordtember Day 28! 28 - Mystery Ness raises some concerns. #rbswordtember

Journal of Record - Entry NS-349-403

I am concerned about Artemis again.

He's been much recovered as of late, even of the melancholy that had gripped him for a while. He's been keeping a better work schedule, and I've even been able to convince him to come out for the odd evening for recreational time. It's been nice, I've had opportunities for socialisation again, which I thought I might have left behind me when I agreed to my new role as Artemis's guard. I've honestly come to care for him as I might a friend, rather than a colleague, and the professional relationship has been such that he's made me feel an equal rather than a subordinate as I felt when I first joined the Order.

However, in the last few days, he's been staying up working 'til all hours, muttering to himself. I can tell he's stressed because he's been chewing at his fingernails again, and the dark circles under his eyes tell me what sleep he's been getting has not been sufficient. Since I've known him, he's been single-minded in his ambitions, he's never to my knowledge sought companionship or taken time to consider what else he might do if his goals are unattainable. I know he's desperate to figure out ways of regaining the magic our predecessors had access to, but I don't think he's prepared for the possibility that day may never come. I think he and the rest of the Order have put a great deal of faith in finding answers in me, their Voidkissed miracle child, but I do worry I am nowhere near as learned as some of the researchers here, and I doubt without me making breakthroughs of my own there's a limit to the amount of knowledge they'll be able to glean from me second hand.

I did ask Artemis once, about the fact he shared a voyage with my mother, and so could be similarly affected in that were he to sire a child, that child might possess the same abilities as me. I thought that an odd avenue to go unexplored, given his singular focus on the answers such a child might provide. A child of the prodigious Kaumera line might be much more suited than I to take up the mantle, after all. But Artemis brushed it off, saying that he couldn't in good conscience raise a child as a test subject, nor seek out the company of someone for their sole quality as a mother to such a child; only feeling comfortable asking for my cooperation as a test subject because he'd only known me as an adult who was making her own choices. And so I fear the responsibility will lie with me, after all.

One thing that has been notably unusual is Artemis's new habit of taking in the air after nightfall, going up to the observation post. I get the sense he wants his space while he's up there, and so I have generally left him to it. However, I have made a point of checking in on him from time to time, stopping on the stairs up where I can see him but not disturb him. Each time I've done so, he's been facing southward, face illuminated in that weird greenish purple the black sun gives out, just staring back at it. He'll regularly stop to look at it for a while whenever we're down in the anteheliocal hemisphere on expeditions, and I figured it was a passing curiosity, but I worry it is becoming more of a fixation for him.

He's never really discussed his theories about the black sun with me, other than his fears that the sun's light is the reason we still struggle so much to venture in to the swamps at the pole, something about the proximity and the intensity of the light, especially as the poles see no nightfall during the lunar cycle. I figure he considers the light not to be a risk at this distance, but maybe I should gently discourage the habit at some point soon. But still, I do wonder what he's so captivated by.

Swordtember Day 26! 26 - Moon The August Order celebrates a holiday. #rbswordtember

Journal of Record - Entry 338-560.

I have been dragged away from my work at the insistence of Chalia and Ness in order to participate in some “downtime". I have been attempting to return to my previous level of efficiency with regard to archival and research, but neither of them have let me be since my bathysphere accident. I have assured them that I am fine, but they maintain that I have been “overworking" myself and that I need to rest.

With that in mind, we have taken a rare journey north, and are taking in the festivities for the Melan eclipse and the ringing in of the new lunar cycle in Latramere, a town built on one of the islands in the western coral shallows. I must admit, it is a refreshing change of pace compared to my normal festive traditions of continuing my work unabated, maybe catching a glance of the eclipse on my way to my quarters. I find it perplexing why the eclipses are celebrated with such enthusiasm across the entire population. I myself have bore witness to two thousand, seven hundred and three of them, with another poised to darken the heliocal hemisphere tonight as Mela reaches its apoapsis.

Latramere would not have been my first choice of location for three scientists to celebrate this occasion, as it makes its reputation mainly on the repeat custom of those that tend to steer clear of the more official shipping channels that operate through Sailskeep. However, at Ness's suggestion, we have chosen the Kraken's Beak- a particularly busy tavern- as our venue for the evening. I confess I feel a mite out of place, not being used to keeping the company of such a boisterous crowd. Ness clearly has no such concerns, having done the majority of her preliminary research expeditions in this area. She seems to be close friends with the two hostesses here, who I understand to be the daughters of the proprietor here. I have never seen her make quite so much eye contact with someone before.

As the light of the yellow sun gets dimmer, it makes me realise I have not watched a Melan eclipse from anywhere besides the Black Peaks since I was a young man. The waters of the Sea of Harmony, already nigh unnaturally calm during the rest of the lunar cycle, become as still as a mill-pond; the surface of the ocean seeming to take on the same strange stasis as the moon that governs their season. As the sky to the north turns dark and still, the sky to the south begins to brighten in comparison, and those odd greens and violets of the black sun start to curl over the tips of the Black Peaks like tendrils. It's a beautiful sight, and one that takes me back to my childhood. I can remember watching the first one our people ever saw with my parents, before any of us even knew what lay beyond the southern horizon.

Before I get too entrenched in sentimentality, Ness and Chalia are motioning for me to stop writing. I think I would perhaps be well served to listen to them, and try and enjoy the festivities for once. Maybe I'll even buy the next round.

Ex Arcana Scientia.

What a surprise, the organizers of the covid cautious dyke bar hated the article, rejected its framing, and is defending their covid cautious patrons and performers. Anyone who joined in on the viral harassment campaign started by Jesse Singal wanna say oops or…? recorder.com/2026/09/24/g...

Current and former owners of Last Ditch could not be reached by phone, email or social media. However, Last Ditch did share on Instagram that the Globe story allegedly misconstrued statements from Noire, and urged community members to stop harassing Noire.
"It is neither productive, progressive, nor valiant to attack a Black patron. He has been a collaborator and performer of Last Ditch for a while, and he deserves to speak his mind about accountability and repair from the bar," the Last Ditch statement reads. "There are so many misconceptions due to the disorganization of the Globe article. He did not call for the bar to be firebombed. Further, he did not disparage the owner for being homeless.
"As a result of this abysmal journalism, he has been getting additional threats, slurs, harassment, and is being reported to the police over something he did not do," Last Ditch continued. "This is not supporting us at Last Ditch, and it is, at its core, anti-Blackness hysteria."

Swordtember Day 25! 25 - Generation Artemis returns to work. #rbswordtember

Journal of Record - Entry 338-419.

This will be my first attempt at taking back archival duties from Ness after she has stewarded the role during my illness. It has been almost two hundred days since last I wrote an entry, and I simply cannot let that date pass, lest I admit failure on the whole undertaking. Ness assures me she's been thorough in my absence, and I look forward to catching up on current events at the Order.

I have very little memory of the incident. I recall sending the staff at the laboratory away, with the intention to ready myself for a solo journey in the bathysphere, and then to call back Ness and a small team of the most knowledgeable researchers available at the station. I wanted to petition them for their opinion on the best route forward, as I felt my own judgement was compromised after my loss of nerve regarding the sphere. Ness tells me that I never called her or anyone else back, and instead got into the bathysphere alone, somehow fastened the hatch from the inside, and deployed it without any supervision.

I must not have been in my right mind. I cannot conjure up a single conceivable explanation as to why I would have made such an irrational decision. If that is indeed what transpired, I owe Ness and the two concords who offered her aid during the incident a tremendous debt of gratitude, as well as an apology. This is to say nothing of Chalia, without whose care I don't believe I would have survived.

She tells me Ness carried my unconscious body all the way from Espial Rock back to the Black Peaks. Even in favourable conditions, that would take almost an entire day's light. I know she has dedicated herself to my protection as part of her pursuit of deeper connection to her magics, but I was not prepared for the lengths she would go to to ensure my safety; forgoing rest and food to drag me across a sea, spending the entire night watching over me as the hydraulic lift carried us back up the cliffs, and still having enough energy to then carry me halfway up a mountain to get back to the facility here. Chalia then spent all of thirty nights nursing me back to health before I even regained consciousness, and she tells me only then did Ness take her leave to catch up on rest.

What Chalia has told me in her absence, though, is that whatever charms Ness attempted to rouse me with on the way up the cliffs may have been the thing that saved my life. She seems to not remember the specific magics she used, likely as a result of the sleep deprivation she was also subjecting herself to at the same time, but Chalia did not recognise any of the traces they'd left on my body. It seems Ness can cast spells purely on instinct, rather than relying on our still limited array of defined magics. It also seems, or so Chalia thinks, that those magics bear the signs of being in the third degree. If that is so, Ness may be the most powerful magic user currently alive on the planet, and she has become so without the need for study, or divine intervention, or an external energy source of any kind. It is as if she has a natural affinity with it.
