middle Tesla style.
The higher end beings in creation could possibly grasp a Ferrets Thief Bag and use it with some kind of precision but most of them are smart enough to see they are just too dangerous to fuck with in any fashion.
Someone did use one as a weapon once and for that bit of ego towards conquest came The God Mark.
Its use accidently created a whole different complete fucking reality.
Can you imagine what it would do if it lets say sloped on the other side of accidently?
So if something is powerful enough that it can by accident create a whole other reality and scares the shit balls out of Gods, imagine what it could do if someone could control and direct it but with an demonstrative variety beyond their rational states?
When it comes to a Ferrets Thief Bag the Gods have enough power to know better. When Gods have come across one of these powerful things they have shrugged their shoulders and moved away from it not wishing to bring that sort of drama into their lives.
And Gods already always have enough drama in their lives to push away any desire to pull any more in.
The chaos seekers who might come across one just wouldn't try to use it to reach their goals. Chaos Seekers are detail orientated. They plan things out. The whole chaos thing is really a misnomer.
Playing with a Ferrets Thief Bag is like painting with a nuclear bomb to try and copy Jackson Pollock's style.
Speaking of throwing things against a wall.
Then you have human beings.
The human race.
The beings who have showed over and over again they have neither the wisdom nor the power of Gods to crack a path in Destiny enough to come across a Ferrets Thief Bag but there are beings out in the universe who can be just as stupid as human beings and one approached a sun with a human level of dangerous inanity.
The Aerial Echoes Of Edgehill came into existence as a group of former human spirits birthed from a battle in the United Kingdom.
So they are tainted with human stupidity.
These ghosts couldn't stay put as good spirits do and they started eating other spirits. Ghosts, poltergeists, and living humans were all meals to add to their power. All the eating was adding to their hive mind in a goal of turning the planet back into a single living organism as it once was.
Their whole existence is such an overcomplicated convoluted multifaceted mess that even I couldn't step too deep into those waters and have any hope of coming out with words that would help others to understand.
And I'm nuts.
There are some who think The Aerial Echoes Of Edgehill were a joke of the mystical world. If you don't believe the mystical world has self-created jokes from the organism of the weird I'll just point you to most Roman Catholic Saints.
The Aerial Echoes Of Edgehill have never really been a real threat to power pulls and influence struggles but they have now obtained a weapon for a future time. They know they will need it to keep their existence continuing throughout eternity. Being just there and strange isn't enough anymore.
Now with the emergence of Beyond Humans on the planet they see their existence as being under even greater threat than before and are looking for big strike capability if humanity gets to the point of not being able to be used as a meal source.
The Aerial Echoes Of Edgehill obtained the bag. That part wasn't hard for them but what was hard and pretty creative was how they so far have kept the possession of such a weapon a secret.
Keeping that secret has involved one part to remind a lot of Christians about what King David did to a large number of soldiers' wives to weaken their faith and two parts licking a hypervelocity star.
Everything is about ritual and symbolism.
What will come of their full story and their Ferrets Thief Bag is an allegory for another time.
I'll get to it.
Trust me.
I have a plan.
I sure have a lot of those.
The nature of the game I guess.
All moments that we experience in time are powerful and when you gather many of those moments together you get a most powerful thing. If random you get a Ferrets Thief Bag, if not so random you get a lifetime which is one of the most potent things in all of creation.
All of the powerful are moving across the board trying to gather an edge as the book has awakened and soon the landscape of everything will start to move.
BREAKING NEWS: Millions of spiders kill a bus load of children in Arizona desert. Activists claim gas drilling nearby is behind it, others say it was something more?
Cut was walking across a busy bridge, on a busy day, with hungry thoughts. The act of touching another reality did to him things that are nothing he really wants to talk about to others, including the other members of The Pearl.
Being part of a reality tapping group has made them even more unclear about a lot of things even if their whole new existence is about learning things about the world that others never even touch upon in their lives.
In the past he was known as someone who didn't mind doing a bit of mouth hugging but like so much which has changed from his past now he really isn't into it because now human skin to skin contact with others turns his mind slightly to the left.
Though a good hate hug is still a cure for a bad day.
For a former serial killer he knows many variations of the hug.
Now that he is the soldier of The Pearl his choices of hugs has went down but he still has a style of hug or two that he still fancies.
Cut moved through crowds noticing others playing games of absent treatment dancing. There were air tight men and baby vamp teenagers. People watching has always been something he enjoyed but now it's a like a cannibals meal to him.
He overheard beat sessions of gossip and more than few blue serge sweethearts with predators following to take advantage of them.
Cut is The Pearl's soldier not just because of his special set of skills but also because of how he can see each individual for their possible ways of being a threat.
Not to mention being a former redneck serial killer makes him a bad ass motherfucker.
The motherfucker thing is literal.
Not judging let me say.
But he has left that part of his history in the past.
The serial killing and mother fucking.
You would think this sort of man, if you are looking for quirks with this sort of man it would probably fall in with him being a former serial killer but the biggest one is his hobby of playing with different slang from different times in history.
Thus why I'm doing this right now.
Characters are real assholes when they make you do research.
Some people look at Cut and see him as some sort of wandering nomad but he ant no bindle punk anymore.
See the research there. Got me on Wikipedia and then for two hours straight I was looking up Victorian politicians.
And somehow got onto the history of the cane.
One of the few places Cut visits outside of Pearl meetings besides just walking around doing people spotting is having drinks at a local dive bar called The Blind Cat.
And bars are pretty great for people spotting also.
The bluenose morally upright owner and bartender of The Blind Cat is Bronx Tear. It isn't her real name course, everyone knows that, but so far no one has had the guts to ask her what her real name is.
Though her image is one of a morally upright person, doesn't mean she won't break your nose or blow some fingers off with a shotgun if you get out of line in her bar.
Cut looks over the bar and sees nothing but bug eyed betties and bunny guys today. It's cold so a lot of the prostitutes and day labors are coming inside for a quick drink.
Though The Blind Cat is a dive bar it doesn't sell coffin varnish spirits and doesn't have time for any cellar smellers looking for free drinks.
Maybe I should drop using this old slang stuff with Cut because it's starting to confuse me?
Cut likes to find a bo
oth and read. Nothing exciting about that really. I just wanted you to get to know him better with a few more details because that is the purpose of these monthly releases.
Don't worry; I'll get into more serial killer stuff with him later.
By the way, he was reading Seven Soldiers of Victory: Volume One.

Notes From The Author
What I learned While Writing This: That there might be something meaningful in the fact that most of my characters are a little off from center when it comes to the sanity department.
