The Prince of Milk

Product Information

We're all in the same strange boat, grappling with the same strange condition. But it isn't quite so scary if we all do it together. So let's do it together.” Type 4 Immortality: When Etherics enter Corporia through the world-schism to settle disputes, they are granted 500 incarnations to settle disputes before they are killed permanently. [9] Whenever they die in Corporia they are reincarnated as a random thing from Corporic history. [10] While they have a certain degree of choice over the gender or species they incarnate as, [11] humans are usually chosen for convenience. What can I say about the writing? It's fantastic. Whimsical, magical, mind-blowing and strangely reminiscent of Neil Gaiman. I loved the writing.

I read this book about having an existential crisis in a small English countryside town while simultaneously having an existential crisis in a small English countryside town. Several galaxies and a dimension away, Wilthail is a small English village alternating between flower shows and the occasional divorce. Life ambles. Old men and women make peace with their gods. Little do they know three deities walk among them already, biding their time before an ancient grudge rears its head.Book Genre: Fantasy, Fiction, Horror, Literature, Novels, Philosophy, Science Fiction, Short Stories, Surreal, Time Travel Perception Manipulation: Capable of showing, within his eye, [36] visions of pieces of the Gestalt; The World in Itself, Truly. [37] Essentially, the true nature of and meaning behind reality. He is also capable of sharing qualia in the form of gems. [38] There's no grand plan and no one's in charge. It's all just fumbling about in the dark, and half the time you're not even sure why you're fumbling. You're so desperate for something to pin your peace of mind to that you'll do all sorts of stupid things in its name. You don't mean to break up a marriage, but if breaking it up might let you sleep like a normal person again, suddenly you start considering it. You don't mean to become a drunk, but if drink is the only way you can keep a handle on some tiny compartment of your life then it's straight for the bottle.” Before the time machine, before the undead mannequins, before the cat with the universe eye, there were the arbiters. They regulated the world and kept reality from banging into itself. All was well in paradise. But even the gods end up in love triangles from time to time. Discovered in the 1970s, magic is now a bona fide field of engineering. There's magic in heavy industry and magic in your home. It's what's next after electricity.

Just like a hotel, it's a place to sleep and be, only you don't sleep that much and you're barely a thing at all anymore.

It's fun to think that one day our great, great grandchildren may get that much closer to understanding what the hell creation is doing here in the first place, and glimpsing the underlying structure and nature of matter itself. Hopefully they won't live with the same existential horrors we all quietly face today in our own lives. Intelligence: At least Extraordinary Genius (Shares the memories and knowledge of his Etheric form) | At least Extraordinary Genius (There is only one mindstate in The Prince of Milk, and Etherics remember all of their past mindstates, including as being everyone [7] and everything [8] in the Corporia)There is evil in the world, yet God claims he loves us. If he could remove that evil but chooses not to, then he is not all-loving as we're told he is. If he wants to remove that evil from the world but cannot, then why do we call him all-powerful? In any case, he's not truly God and there's nothing to be frightened of. Chin up.” “Goodnight”
