The Antinomy

Good day.

We all recognize the fact that with every postulation comes paradoxes. Paradoxes are the root of all philosophy; it is the thing that clears the conundrums  to make certain subjects more lucid and coherent. Hence, as we explore the paradoxes of TÖMN, this helps us to delve deeper into the core of her powers.

Thou: You (Subject)

Thee: You (Object)

Ye: I

Thy: your

Scene 1
(TÖMN is summoned to the forest where she had gained possession of The Emblem of the Silver Angel. Facing the dark ahead of her, she recognizes the presence of The Omnipotent, looming over her and all that is known and unknown. What was unknown to her was a figure that emerged from the dark; it was an elderly man TÖMN had seen in the world of her author. However strange, TÖMN was unable to use her Mentifery to assert dominance over the man. Moreover, she found his aura to be as vigorous as it was tempting. With that, TÖMN bows in honor).

The Man: TÖMN, must it be?

TÖMN : With deference, but who might thee be?

NAMN:  Ye is NAMN, The Lord of Arcanas  

Wind rustles through the leaves as sagacity dawns

Scene 2
(Namn moves closer to TÖMN, as TÖMN  steps back. His motive beyond acknowledgement, TÖMN evokes her Sceptre and prepares for combat. Wind converges around Namn as he cups his hand to form a lustrous orb. TÖMN launches herself to Namn, feeling threatened by his mere presence and the enigmatic orb. In a thunderous instance, TÖMN clashes her Sceptre into a wall of force, smothered by the hallow purple light. She swings around fiercely and hits the wall again. After several clobbering, she swings her body round and hits a final blow, and using the force of the resistance, she thrusts into the air and aims for Namn's head, but the orb blocks it completely. TÖMN is sent flying a couple of yards away, crashing into the ground as she creates a big hollow in the surface of the impact. She resists, and tries to stand up, only to find she had been tethered by a fraction of the orb. Breathing heavily, she wills to transcend her current rage in order to manipulate it. She succeeds.)

TÖMN: How can you...vanquish me?... ye stand to be ...the second-most powerful entity... ever created by The Omnipotent, All honors...to Him.

NAMN: To trounce thyself is the best victory

TÖMN: Thyself, you say? What do thee mean?

NAMN: Ye am thou, but ye am not thou : ye am Metaparadox

(TÖMN's breathing becomes shallower)

Denouement
TÖMN faces appaling injures, so she thinks of transcending it but can't. The inability outrages her, and as if fueled by it, the grip of the orb gets tighter.

TÖMN : What is going on? Why does it get tighter everytime ye want to break loose?

NAMN: Because thou are bound by Ularia: The Orb of Metaparadoxes

TÖMN: When shall ye get released?

NAMN: You shall never

(TÖMN frowns)

TÖMN: Thy say ye am a fraction of thou, but thy walk free?

NAMN: Because ye, too , am shackled by a paradox

TÖMN: What paradox?

NAMN: Thou

TÖMN: How?

NAMN: And that question is a metaparadox

(TÖMN feels her hands emancipate. She looks at her palm, the whitest white, and then at Namn. They both come closer to which other, yet maintaining a disquieting distance. TÖMN rests her arm on the scabbard, while the orb still glows inside Namn's palm )

NAMN: Thou see thy are not the second-strongest, because once you claim that, there will be paradoxes. Ye was created without enlightening thee, whereas ye am a part of thee that is yet to be manifested, and thou could not vanquish over thyself yet...

TÖMN and NAMN (equivocal and ubiquitous) : And that itself is a paradox

(TÖMN stares at NAMN curiously as he proceeds)

NAMN: You are but a container of infinite infinities. All infinities have a probability of an end point, which is a paradox. But paradox has its infinity inside you, which is a paradox itself. What if ye tell thee that TÖMN, as thee a singular entity, is paradoxical? Isn't being 'ranked' second, paradoxical? What makes you think that the gap between Omnipotence and Absolute Omnipotence isn't paradoxical? And above all...

(TÖMN narrows her eyes)

NAMN: Absolute Omnipotence- it is metaparadoxical.... but isn't that a paradox?

TÖMN: Wait...then why do thee even exist?

NAMN: Ye exist to cease to exist. That is my purpose. I am the embodiment of Ularia, the ether of Metaparadox, and I am here to negate myself because in the end, Metaparadox negates Metaparadox, and what paradox is left is devoured by Ularia.

TÖMN: How does this affect me?

NAMN (smiling) : As thee consume me, thou will become the symbol of the negation of Metaparadox and even beyond it. In you will lie the greatest secret of paradoxes, the '''Anatomy of Negation. '''Thus, as Ye saturate into a glowing orb, I congratulate thee to the beginning of a new venture. My disappearance is yet another paradox, so I have nothing to offer but bid you farewell. May the journey bless thee

(NAMN radiates purple light as he becomes overwhelmed by it, soon transfiguring into a large glowing orb. As TÖMN grabs and devours it, she savours every bit, until a new paradigm of transcendence blooms inside her.

With the rustling of the wind again, she disappears.
