The ancient God Avatars laughed. They laughed as Humanity was left to fight. The laughed as the Humans flung themselves to certain death. They laughed as the corpses of Humans littered the worlds. They laughed as they devoured the Humans alive. Humanity began to laugh back. They both laughed as Humanity continued to die. But the laughter of the God Avatars began to fade as they heard the corpses beneath their feet, and the remnants of meals, laughing as well. They heard Humanity, even the dead, laughing. They began to feel something not even their summoners felt since gaining sentience. They felt DREAD.

Funny enough, if I want to see some good Horror, I go to rule 34 disgusting section (gore, vore, rape, dismemberment, etc, etc, etc.). Horror movies as in late leave much to be desire (jump scare snore-fest) and some newest "Horror" books are not even that interesting past the half of the story. It's simply incredible what you can find in rule 34 and how much you can learn to break some ones fragile mind by simply explaining to them what you saw. The artists even challenge what people would DARE NOT do, the Taboo is common ground in rule 34. There is no God here, cause the artists killed him or he is hiding cause he lives in fear of what the artists have done on rule 34.

Unlike every other race in this story humanity didn't evolve sentience as a way of surviving the number one threat on its world. We evolved sentience to deal with everything ranked between number one and 12,000,000... Because pre sentience humans were ranked about as highly as a poisonous centipede when it came to threat level, now we are the most dangerous group on the planet and everything that can kill individual humans consists of a small number of species who survived long enough for us to start keeping them around because we like the diversity and nature now.

You got Wojtek wrong it would be read as Voytek in english and name Wojtek probably came from Corporal Wojtek who was a Polish bear fighting in WW2
@Alex-xt1rr3 жыл бұрын
Just to clearify some things (or not): Wojtek was a Syrian bear cup that got adopted as mascot by a Polish exile regiment that under British lead was stationed in Persia (Iran). Travelled with them to Egypt and was made a corporal so they could bring him to Italy since only troops and draft horses where to embark the ships.

@@Alex-xt1rr i know his history but he was originally a private and to get him with them they had to make him Polish citizen that's why i wrote Polish bear because he was oficially a Polosh citizen and then soldier.

@@diooverheaven6561 thank you for pointing out the pieces I missed. The answer was meant for people who aren't familiar with the mortar shell carrying bear of the polish army. Just thinking of the scene of them embarking: "You can't bring your pet to a war zone." "But sir look we have his paybook and papers to prove he is an enlisted soldier." "Oh very well carry on then."

From Babylon 5, the best speech (among many many fabulous speeches), is when Londo, as the Centari Emperor, was talking to a child about the Earth-Minbari war.. "The Humans, I think, knew they were doomed. But where another race would surrender to despair, it made the Humans fight back with even greater strength. They made the Minbari FIGHT for every inch of space. In my life, I have never seen anything like it.. They would weep, they would pray, they would say goodbye to their loved ones, and then throw themselves, without fear or hesitation, at the very face of death itself. Never surrendering. No one, who saw them fighting against the inevitable, could help but be moved to tears by their courage. Their stubborn nobility. When they ran out of ships, they used guns. When they ran out of guns, they used knives, and sticks, and bare hands. They were... Magnificent. I only hope that when it is my time, that I may die with HALF as much dignity as I saw in their eyes at the end. They did this for TWO YEARS. They never ran out of courage. But in the end, they ran out of time..."

The idea that these eldritch monstrosities can drive men insane always kinda bugged me.. because, I mean.. existential cosmic horror was new when Lovecraft wrote about it but it's been over a hundred years since then. If cthulhu rose out of the sea today, people would just be like: *"oh hey. interdimensional dracula squid. neat."* Our collective consciousness has had the time to absorb and adapt. Eldritch horrors from beyond might even be considered boring lol.

I don't know if aliens will ever find us, here on dear, sweet Terra. But, I do know this. If they come from a world that isn't as outright deadly, as unabashedly lethal, and as blatantly hostile to life as our beautiful blue globe, they better either come in peace, or blow our world up. Anything else, and things could get a bit dodgy for them.
