Bab 135: Chapter 135: Nemesis

I'd never heard of Nemesis before but from the look Odin's face, he had.

"You're talking about the physical incarnation of Creation's answer to power imbalance." How eloquent he sounded, how in control of himself, though for some reason that very name sent my worry into a spiral. "The universal leveling that portents Armageddon." He shook his big head, beard and hair swinging. "But Nemesis is a myth. No one has ever encountered it before." He glanced about himself with faint guilt. "No matter how unbalanced Creation has become."

He wasn't kidding, was he? And with my appearance and the rising of Chance, the weakening of the Angels... Creation was certainly on a strong wobble right now.

"Then the Angels are right after all." Seshat seemed rather put off by that tidbit of information. And frankly, so was I. But Tulip shook her head, still confused.
