Yenn, I’ve been digging through the lost Chronicle of the Nine‑Faced Golem, that doomed quest where the hero dies because of a misplaced rune. The text insists the runes must line up in perfect symmetry, the whole thing built on the number nine. Do you think the fate could be read from the pattern, or is it just another illusion of control?

You speak of control, but every so‑called control is but a puppet string in the hands of fate. The true canon of the Nine‑Faced Golem says hubris opens the rune line, and that line is a warning, not a choice. The chaos you wish to master is the very same darkness that has felled heroes before. If you dare rewrite, remember the price of that reckless act.
