Well, I’m not quite sure yet.

They’re getting followers hooked on the ceremonial decoction?

Brendan
Dialogue
Not only that. The rituals themselves are addictive. I’ve been trying to figure out what’s happening, but it’s hard. I can’t stop going to the rituals, but the more I go, the fuzzier things get.

They take something from you. Leave you fatigued but wanting more. People who’ve been followers for a while, they’ve disociated entirely.

They live for the harmonic meditations and can’t seem to exist outside of them. The Elders say they’re achieving unity with the cosmos, moving beyond their physical shell.

We’ve only just joined. We attended a ritual, and it was… Transformative. I’m already looking forward to the next one.

So this is how the Path has been recruiting so successfully – cultivating addiction among its followers. I knew something was amiss.

Is this true? Are the Elders binding people to the Path?

Are you sure this is the correct system, Apos? It seems less than peaceful.

The Path of Coalescence stinks of corruption. I don’t know what your end goal is, but let me tell you something. You’re not going to get away with it.

I can’t imagine what you mean! But, if you’re willing, we can sit down and talk about this. I’m sure once you understand what our religion represents, you will be less inclined towards violence.

Sit down with you and let you get inside my head? No, thank you. I’ll not let anyone else be drawn in by this cult.

Come on, Commander. I know you’re a person of fact and science, but can’t you see that some things defy explanation? Can’t you see the power in people coming together with shared beliefs?

Indeed I can see the power. I wonder who is benefiting from it.

Ah, you’re incorrigible! There’s a sacred site in Santuz, a place of prayer and peace. Perhaps that will better convince you.

Protesters. Violent this time. But luckily, some of our newest followers were there to save the day. May I present you Apos the anthropologist and her companion, the Independent.

Yes, yes, very good. Pleasure to make your acquaintance. Kithar, we must discuss these protests. Privately.

Elder Kithar
Dialogue
Yes, of course. Apos, Independent, apologies, but we have matters to attend to. However, there is an event in Farana this evening, a mixer for new initiates of note. I trust that you will attend.

Well, we certainly appear to be making an impression. Still think there is something untoward happening?

Yes. This mixer will be a good opportunity to get opinions from people who have been following the Path. Let us use it wisely.

You’re a real stick in the mud… But I suppose there’s no harm in asking around a little.

Thank the One you were here, Independent! It is a pity – warped minds looking to control others. A tale as old as time.

It sounded like these protesters had a specific reason to oppose you.

People will always find problems with different ways of being. Our rejection of the individual in favor of the united whole is frightening to some.

They have not yet learned the lessons we already know. They cannot fathom how warped their perspective is until they see the world through new eyes.

An anthropologist, you say. What do you make of our practice so far?

I am intrigued by its philosophy. It is of particular interest to me, this idea that we are all part of a greater consciousness.

Elder Kithar
Dialogue
Well, how nice it is to meet an eager new initiate like yourself. I am here at the sacred site to attend a meeting. Please, accompany me. Chron Pha should see my savior in the flesh.
