the observer

subject sent the collective into a manic episode that devolved into a temporary state of apathy for those around me.

this period has since passed, but its worth noting since this has never affected the collective before and any feelings of emptiness had been solely centered on the calamity’s state of being. previously the calamity was assumed to be tasked with isolating these experiences from the collective, but this is now proven untrue.

the king was drawn out of its nurturing state of mind for exactly twenty-seven minutes upon assuming control of the collective before the apathy wore off. its easiest to describe as a debuff that follows parts across switching, one that ran out while the king was present. the king then acted out of its element for the remaining time it was in control, of which i lacked to time.

upon the sovereign’s return as the most frequently tuned part, it appeared normal from its entrance to the moment of writing this.

to end this off, i will detail my plan for the next coming days. i will attempt to trigger these episodes from the calamity and record how long they last, along with recording what brings these episodes along. my current assumption is the inability to acquire satisfying stimulation, but testing will occur to prove or disprove this theory.
