Main Disc. Thread - Season 4: Into the Wonder [9.28.25]

I guess I’m building a custom.

I know it’s not the final build, but Emperor Reforged, is “unioning” hard lol. I’ve had the biggest breakthroughs of my entire life this week, the unconscious becoming conscious. Honestly feels like I’m discovering that real inner self for the first time in my whole life- as so much of it was obstructed previously. Don’t want to go to much into detail as I want everyone to have there own expierience with the title, but it’s an incredibly liberating title.

This makes me excited for when all the existing titles get re-written with ZPU scripting. I’ll be rebuilding NE customs then, too.

When did all custom orders start coming in ZPU build as default?

I’m considering which ones to remake.

June 1. It was a surprise announcement.

Can @SaintSovereign confirm this? I know he said it somewhere but couldn’t find the quote.

Anyone else able to get the post where he said this, do link it.

Would this parable, in the style of your favorite author, illustrate it? :

The Emperor had once believed that kingdoms were built the way cathedrals were—stone upon stone, command upon command, every victory another brick in a fortress against uncertainty.

He forged himself accordingly.

His jaw became granite.
His calendar became scripture.
His ambition learned to march in polished boots.

The world applauded.

Women admired him.
Men respected him.
Money developed the peculiar habit of introducing itself.

Yet every night, when the banners were folded and the applause went home to watch television, the Emperor found another brick in his hand.

He had become a magnificent mason.

No one had told him he was building a prison.

One spring morning, a dragonfly landed on the rim of his coffee cup.

“You’re late,” said the Emperor.

“For what?” asked the dragonfly.

“My empire.”

The dragonfly laughed so hard it almost fell into the espresso.

“My friend,” it buzzed, “you keep trying to own the horizon.”

The Emperor frowned.

“Then what should I own?”

The dragonfly considered this.

“Nothing.”

And then it flew away without leaving a forwarding address.

For days the Emperor was furious.

Nothing? Ridiculous. Empires required acquisition. Expansion. Strategy. Metrics. One did not simply nothing one’s way into sovereignty.

But the sentence lingered like sandalwood smoke.

One evening he walked through his city without guards, titles, or agenda. He noticed a violinist playing as though the moon itself had commissioned the concert. A florist arranging tulips with the seriousness of a philosopher. Two old lovers arguing over which constellation looked more trustworthy.

None of them appeared to be trying to become themselves.

They simply were.

The realization struck him with all the subtlety of a champagne cork.

He had spent years trying to manufacture what had always existed beneath the machinery.

The throne was never something to climb toward.

It was something to stop climbing away from.

From that day forward, strange things happened.

He still negotiated billion-dollar agreements—but now they felt like conversations instead of conquests.

Women no longer felt like mountains to summit, but fellow travelers carrying beautiful maps.

His voice grew quieter.

Oddly enough, rooms became quieter to hear it.

His ambition did not disappear.

It relaxed.

It became less like a clenched fist and more like a river that had remembered where the ocean lived.

People began asking what had changed.

He smiled.

“I stopped trying to become Emperor.”

“And then?”

“I remembered I already was.”

The odd thing about sovereignty is that it behaves much like perfume.

The harder you wave the bottle around, the less anyone notices.

Open it quietly, and the whole room begins wondering where that remarkable fragrance came from.

@Plutus - if you could only run one title, would it be EoG:TS?

@SaintSovereign An addition we could have in Q: have it dynamically generate some artwork for the custom subs generated, and have that artwork embedded in the audio files.

I did something really sick for my newly built ZPU subs so their files have these as embedded artwork. Can you tell what the subs are?

Hint: each of them are name-embedded mains with two cores :slight_smile:

Depends what the new EoG: True Sell has. If we’re talking about the current OG True Sell, definitely not even if it did change my life a lot. That’s reserved for Stark Black till A Stark Reality comes out. You? @Lion

Good choice.

For me it would be Wanted Black after the update too if I could choose only one.

Is there any way to stop threads from users we’ve blocked from appearing in our [New] list?

What’s New List?

There’s a tracking dropdown at the bottom of each thread, you can choose to set it to normal or muted rather than whatever the default is that it’s set to.

Any ETA on TS & ASR?

We’re eagerly waiting!

Since this thread has been getting unwieldy and hard to search, I went through and snagged a bunch of the updates in chronological order for TS:

EoG: True Sell is either next week or first week of August from what Saint said apparently.

What,does this also apply to new paragon? It would just behave as if it was written in zpu? Or would it be better to wait for the full zpu upgrade ( depending on when that will come)
