You passed by one.
But it still hurts.
Suddenly you understand what it's like for mortals to try to comprehend the great old ones.
Then it stops.
”an interesting feeling... what are you, exactly?” The prince says, mostly unfazed.
"the last remaining fragment."
”give more details, please.”
"you could not comprehend the name."
”excuses.”
the Prince begins conjuring up another spell.
"Fine." It says.
Then it utters a name so alien, it is beyond your mind.
Roll dc70 wisdom saving throw.
The Prince automatically fails, having only a +19 to wisdom.
Oh sh*t.
It digs into your brain.
For the first time in eternity, you feel your mind shattering, breaking, and you black out.
*how long would the Prince be blacked out for?*
That's for you to decide, because I lazy af, and feel guilty for making them do a dc70.
After a few minutes, the Prince wakes up, a bit confused for a few seconds but mostly unfazed, due to their Great Old one blood granting them some resistance against insanity, because of how Great Old one minds work.
“I-Interesting experience…”
"I have never fed on the power of the son of a great old one." It says. It goes back to him, and you notice it seems to glow brighter, and he gets dimmer.
*just to clarify, The sun king god guy gets dimmer?*
”now, without using that word that you used that affected me strangely, please explain what you are in terms comprehensible for a half human, half great old one.”
*yes*
"I am all that remains of the most powerful being to ever exist."
"And you will tell no one."
“And why… is that?”
You feel it in you're mind.
"Because you're brain won't make you speak the words if you try."
”and why, if I may ask, are you telling me this, if you specifically want to keep this a secret?”
"because you can't tell anyone, you just have to sit and watch as I fed off my son."
”yes, but what purpose is it supposed to serve? Am I supposed to feel bad?”
