Without much of a word or warning, Neesa started to walk back in the direction they came with her new automaton in tow, though she did give a quick smirk towards Sabine. "Oh, if only you knew how much of a ridiculous question that was, girl. You would be laughing at yourself. That answer cannot be known, for all that is left of them is traces of their song. From all of the writings and research I have scraped together through the millennia, CHIM requires three things: Will, understanding the Godhead, and understanding Love. No, not that kind. Love, as Vivec wrote it, is the knowledge that individuality is a lie. I am a part of everything, and everything is a part of me. Will is the just that: willpower. The strength and stubbornness of mind to declare that you [i]do[/i] exist, despite all evidence to the contrary. It is the ability to retain individuality when you discover why it does not exist. Essentially, you have to have a massive ego in order to view the Tower and attain CHIM. Obviously, that is contradictory, which is why most fail. When you come to the realization that individuality is a lie, and know [i]why[/i] it is a lie, then if you accept that truth, then Aurbis will do exactly as you believe and write you out of existence, retroactively. To do so is to 'zero-sum'. You would be erased from the present, past, and future, as if you never existed. There are only traces of writings from people who [i]may[/i] have zero-summed, and that is debatable. It is the most permanent, and frankly terrifying, form of death. Given the existence of our eternal souls, I view it as the [i]only[/i] form of death." 

Neesa looked straight ahead and shrugged. "As for the Godhead, I have no clue what that is. I've seen the word in some writings from some authors; Vivec, Mankar Camoran, others. But, I do not know about it, quite intentionally, I might add. I assume it gives understanding for why I supposedly do not exist, but I do not know. Therefore, my Will has never been...tested."
