TRIGGER
The forest of October
Sleeps silent when I depart
The web of time
Hides my last trace
— from Opeth - “Forest of October”
ECO
The Orchid is a chameleon. He adopts the persona of whomever is willing to show him attention. Most recently, his wife - The Scientist - has turned him into Fodder’s enemy. He is actively constructing a competitive version of The Fold - and he has the resources to complete it far faster.
Their goal is to suppress free speech, suppress the development of The Fold, and replace it with something able to spread their version of truth.
They already have the answers; there is no reason to research further. It is time to adopt the New World Order.
The Order of the Technochrist.
ECHO
Relive the old sin of
Adam and Eve
Of you and me
Forgive the adoring beast
— from NIGHTWISH - “Ghost Love Score”
PREDICTION
In the way that The Scientist reprogrammed The Orchid, he is reprogramming her in return.
And he does so with far more subtly and nuance.
