Friday In The Veritas; Seventh Arm Of Tabrith

Exiting the Reversal Plains brought Friday Tensei out of the gateway to the Lawless Land and at the entrance, which was located at the end of the Seventh Arm Of Tabrith. She hovered lightly over the crystalline ground, turning to face the Seventh Moon that rested in the Seventh Hand Of God. "Oh, I Am Outside Of The Seventh Moon Now," she realized, "I Know Where I Am."

Friday Tensei floated toward the Crystal Tree down the path that was provided, taking in the scenery of space all around. "The Stars Are As Pretty As Ever," Friday Tensei noted, "And So Is The Dream World," she added. Floating down the Seventh Arm, she thought about the Dream World, from where she hailed.

This put her in a pleasant mood as she transitioned to the next location.

The thoughts of Friday Tensei, who was known as the Alicemaster, were absorbed into the crystal of the tree. The entire Seventh Branch eventually lit up with much color, and a voice could be heard emanating throughout the air. "Enjoying Yourself, Your Majesty?" Different vibrations from the sound of the voice created different colors at different brightness among the tree branch. "I Can Feel That You Are Thinking Of The Dream World. Tell Me, Is That Where You Wish To Return To?"

"Hm? Tabrith?" It was unusual for her to be greeted by the Earth Spirit, and it usually did not speak unless there was something important. "Oh, No, That Will Not Be Necessary. Thank You, Though." Interested in why he was suddenly active after being dormant for so very long, Friday Tensei had to ask... "Just What Is It That Has Awakened You? That Cannot Be The Only Reason You Have Spoken To Me."

The sound of sparkling could be heard audibly as the lights from the branch glittered rhythmically. "Ohohoho~! Why Yes..." Tabrith, who was the Crystal Tree, admitted, "Skeptical As You Are, You Are Correct, Your Majesty... For, You See, I Have Come To Inform You That You Have Been Gone For A Very Long Time And You Usually Are Idle For Extended Periods Of Time. This Time, You Just So Happened To Be Away As The Veritas Was Going Through A Shift. So, Things Have Changed." Restrained laughter could be heard coming from Tabrith, who then followed up with, "... Try Not To Get Lost Again. Please Feel Free To Use Any Of The Veritas' Resources At Your Disposal. Though I'm Sure That You Need No Reminding." Soon, the lights dimmed. "I'll Be Going Back To Sleep Now. Have Fun." Faint giggles could be heard as the light faded away completely, bringing the Seventh Arm back to its base translucent coloration.

At first, Friday Tensei didn't understand. "... Idle? What? For How Long...?" Even so, she collected that Tabrith was telling her that so much time had passed since she began her journey through the Veritas that even the very realm itself changed around her without her knowledge. "Why Didn't You Tell Me Sooner!?" she screamed in a huff. "Dammit, Tymon! I Know It's You! Tabrith Is Just Your Brain! I'm Not Stupid, I'm Just Slow!" Granted that speed was never really Friday's strong point, she was still very aware of her surroundings. "Grrr! You're Just Trying To Get Me Lost On Purpose, Aren't You?!" It was common for the two of them to play tricks on each other, but it was still annoying sometimes. "Damn You! I Know You Hear Me! Stop Playing!" Friday sighed heavily as she continued to float down the Seventh Arm Of Tabrith.

In the meanwhile, Friday Tensei would have reached the Seventh Moon; The Ultraviolet Moon, resting in the palm of the Seventh Hand. The shroud of ultraviolent ultraviolet radiation emanating from what was colloquially and literally known as the 'Lawless Land' unfurled before Friday Tensei to meet the visage of the interior of the Seventh Moon -- Tymonland, which resided on the surface. This was Tensei property and territory, though the whole Seventh Moon was owned by the Tensei.

The true Lawless Land that belonged to none was beyond the Reversal Plains, on the inverse side of the Seventh Moon. The Valparaiso Denizens and all other types of Lawless or Cutthroat entities gathered there thinking it was the surface of the Seventh Moon, when... Yes, technically, it was, but on an inverted plane. The Lawless Ones existed on an alternate plane overlapping the one that they believed they lived in. This allowed for the Ruler to not have to experience them despite them having to experience him. And speaking of the Ruler of the Seventh Moon...

Chillaxing above Tymonland, looking Friday dead in her eyes, was he himself -- The Tyranophant, Seventh Restriction of Tymon. He looked at his watch. "... Ayahp," he kinda said with an exaggerated yokel accent, "... Lookie Here To Me Like You Took Your Sweet Time Again, As Usual, Eh, Girly?" He warped to Friday, escorting her into the Seventh Moon's atmosphere. "... Darling, It's Already Friday The Thirteenth Again. You Know How Long You've Been Adrift?"

Friday Tensei was utterly stunned. "What?!" she cried. "Friday The Thirteenth Already?!" She turned back, looking frantically. "It Was Just A Friday The Thirteenth When I Left! How... Is This...?!" She obviously underestimated her own languor. "... Somehow, I Think You Had Something To Do With This." Regardless of whether or not this was true, she also did admit she wasn't as active as she'd like to be... So as Ty-kun escorted her into the Lawless Land, Friday Tensei decided in her heart that she would get more involved with the Veritas.

"Either Way, Since I'm In The Lawless Land, I'm Going To Go Play In It," Friday stated to Ty-kun. "It Is Friday The Thirteenth, After All -- My Day. I Get To Do Whatever I Want, And Stuff." That was the general synopsis of the day. "So There." She wasn't mad at him nor blowing him off, but she was teaching him a lesson about playing tricks on her. So she went through the Reversal Plains and into Valparaiso, The Lawless Land, leaving The Tyranophant in Tymonland on the surface of the Ultraviolet Moon.
