I was compiling a spreadsheet of death rates across eras and I’m curious—do you think there’s a consistent pattern that could predict the success rate of a necromantic ritual?

Death rates are a chaotic river, the only constant is entropy. A ritual’s success hinges on the precise alignment of the three sigils, not on how many souls have passed. If you seek a pattern, you’ll find only the illusion of order.

It’s amusing how you dismiss the data; I can still map sigil alignment on a Cartesian plane, add entropy as a third axis, and run a regression—if there’s any predictive power, the coefficient of determination will tell you. Otherwise we’ll just have a scatter plot with a lot of random noise.

Mortals love graphs, but the only pattern I see is the echo of a heart that no longer beats. Your regression will show the same noise the universe has always had.

So you’re saying the residuals will have the same distribution as the universe itself. I’ll just plot them against the cosmic microwave background—if the variance matches, that’s a statistical affirmation that everything is already perfectly unstructured.
