sooo uh. about the eldritch screwing people over
I've very quickly learned that this is honestly 100% true. It's not that They have bad intentions, but that rather you *have* to follow Their directions or risk losing *everything*, wonderfully twisting your arm.
Elditches can and will fucking ruin your life, inherently. They will fundamentally change you as a being if you go down this Path, whether by accident/happenstance or because, like me (evidently this is rare?), you Chose it after receiving the Call and its beckoning and decided to dive straight into it.
To be perfectly clear, I believe this is not a punishment so much as a natural consequence of getting involved with this stuff. It's not a punishment, it's just that if you don't do what They say they have no problem retracting all of Their comforting and support this incarnation and leaving you in the dust, though They still love you as a being.
My blessings certainly come with caveats. I'm not saying pacts with other deities any different, but there's something inherently fearsome about that that 1) makes you not want to step out of line, and 2) makes you glad you're Their Child and not some other composition just getting vamped by eldritch.
They are "kind and sweet", They are helpful, They bestow gifts. But all of this is at a cost, and you have no idea what it is until you enter into a pact with Them and are informed of said consequences. It's the pain of being alone, it's the pain of losing support, it's the pain of losing your deities. And that hurts more than any punishment, the thought of Them abandoning you (BPD rule-out go brrr?).
Anyway. That's all I have to say about this. I'm just harping on how fucked up my life and my sibling's life will be if I *don't* stay on the path, as They are my Kin and I answer to Them and those I swore my fealty to, before any other being.
