Congratulations on Forming the New Triumvirate

Aurora, I take exception to you referring to me as a "cohort-in-crime" for simply giving to Twilight the Chaos Bond that trapped the Oath Breaker. It is amazing that you now appear to aid the Oath Breaker, when you were one of the most militant among us to rise up against her, especially in light of the Oath Breaker's plots that we uncovered which were directed specifically against you and the Church.

In any event, you dramatically accuse me and Twilight of "dark workings" and somehow hint that Twilight is committing some sort of crime, when in fact Twilight is simply finishing what we had started and taking what is his due. I certainly have nothing to gain by Twilight's dominion over the Oath Breaker and am a bit perplexed by your statement, "a lesson learned of the futility of aligning yourself with Darkness, for what does it gain you but frustration as you watch all your plans go up in smoke." If you somehow infer that my actions were "futile" because I aligned myself with Darkness and thus have to watch my "plans go up in smoke", I assure you that nothing is further from the truth.

But what ought to concern Achaea is the formation of the New Triumvirate, consisting of Aurora, Oneiros and Hermes. Since it is obviously beneath the dignity of gods to bend to the whims of mortals, it is absurd that Aurora would have us believe that her motivation was "in response to the many pleas that were lifted up to the heavens." Given this inane logic, if mortals cried and sent many pleas up to the heavens to always have their vials filled, Aurora would comply. (If I am wrong, of course, I suggest that mortals start taking advantage of Aurora's generosity and send her your multitude of pleas.) One must wonder what motives really underlie the New Triumvirate.

Although I have no evidence of any sort of "seed of evil" that "poisoned" the Oath Breaker, I have investigated the results of the New Triumvirate's healing of the Oath Breaker. What is ironic indeed is that whatever the New Triumvirate did to the Oath Breaker has perhaps irrevocably harmed her to the point where even if she does escape her remaining bonds, she will be nothing but a pathetic shadow of what she once was. Or, Aurora, perhaps this was your plan all along? Perhaps you purposefully erased her memories so that you could enjoy a Gaia who no longer remembers the plots against you, perhaps a Gaia that you may more easily manipulate. Of course, I suppose you could blame the "seed of evil" if it even existed at all.

Of course, Aurora, my dear young sister, could it be that Chaos manipulated the formation of the New Triumvirate? Could it be that Chaos grows in conflict? Could the lesson learned be that by opposing Chaos, you strengthen Chaos?

Eris, Goddess of Chaos
