Its first post is linked in Pixiethreads which is mentioned in the Index if Glowfic, but Pixiethreads takes a different branch on the summonee.

I do not think it makes a good Admin intro, although it might if it were continued. Her summoning Cam might because it shows one of the few times she is moved to deliberate action, but I don’t remember it well enough to be sure.

I for one was introduced to Mileses via this path: Amounts of Dragon, the Skylight Empire stuff, some short sandboxes and then seeing the similarity and trying to figure out "who the hell is this" "where can I find more of this template" and then League.

Also maybe some of: hazmats, Uninvited Guests Are Welcome Here, galaxyrise, Demon Cam and Miles, and there will be light?

I think shren Miles or Nexus is the best place to start with Miles.

hazmats is a good one for Thedas, I'm not sure whether it's a good one for Mileses.

there will be light is definitely an excellent showcase of something but I'm not sure the something is Mileses. It might instead be one of the fundamental underlying narratives of my brain. XD

I am pleased by all of your contributions and you all delight me <33333

When the monument claims to be eternal, indestructible, etc., is that in theory or just in practice? Was it somehow made so that civilizations’ worth of epru couldn’t destroy it, or civilizations’ worth of beshenn couldn’t stop it from doing anything including giving out taieli?

Presumably stronger non-taieli magic could destroy it even if no magic conceived of by the monument’s creators could.

They were very, very serious about making really sure that nothing could ever subvert or supplant the monument system as the sole method for distributing taieli. They put in enough beshenn to make it conceptually impossible for anything to change the relevant characteristics of the original monument (existing, functioning according to its specifications, forming the basis for the only viable method of distributing taieli), and then they put in a bunch more as a safety margin. The monument and its function are really not going anywhere, in theory or in practice.

How much does the Admin approve of the taieli monument? (On a scale from Yes to Very Yes)

The admin thinks the taieli monument is one of the most Aesthetic things she has ever seen, and would happily spend several centuries sitting in her comfy armchair contemplating its structure and properties.

Astra Nephthys is so miffed about the taieli monument.
