Summary of Receipt
Mercutio suspects the Cult of Personality is trying to re-create the Miracle of Eight, which is incredibly dangerous, has repeatedly almost destroyed the Universe, and led to its Darkest Hour. Besides, there are many others who seek the Mantle of Eight and could threaten the Universe's stability, including the Zulus and the dead god-corpse, Netzach, they have. He also remarks that 'Miracles' are really just aberrations given out by pure chance, since the Universe likely doesn't have a consciousness. And although they can't ask any holder of Eight just how dangerous it is, now that Fate's dead...well, Jack Octo did want to talk. And it was his Miracle initally.
Transcript
Receipt: ZZ-TCOP04
Author: Mercutio
Status: Super Secret
Subject: Personality Cult
If the IRIS reports are to be believed, it would seem that Unidentified Cult Leader No. 4 is attempting to recreate the Miracle of Eight. I don’t believe I need to explain how dangerous that could be if it were to succeed, though I will at least remind everyone that Eight almost destroyed the Universe on numerous occasions, ultimately leading to the Universe’s Darkest Hour. I was there, and it wasn’t pretty. You were there too, Shaka, so you should know better than anyone how dangerous the Eight is. Even in the best possible hands, look at the mess it created.
And while it is true that Fate is no more, there are others who would covet the power of Eight. Pale, Eve, the Devil… You. I do not mean any offense, of course, but when I think about existential threats to the stability of the Universe, I can’t help but think about you two. Well, not you two specifically, but the corpse you’ve been holding onto. Netzach. If Netzach was able to get a hold of the Eight… Well, that would be… bad. I assume, of course. I have no idea what exactly the Eight does. Nor does anyone, not anymore, for that matter.
In my prior receipt (we are still calling these receipts, no?) I mentioned that Miracles were gifts from the Universe—thus not dangerous to the stability of the Universe itself. That’s a rather naïve perspective, isn’t it? These Miracles, to me, seem more like tumors or aberrations. I doubt the Universe has any form of consciousness with which to bestow Miracles to mere mortals. Especially Miracles, like the Eight, that can cause such bloody, senseless conflicts for generations. Though while we are unable to ask any previous holders what exactly the Eight were or how dangerous they might be with Fate out of the picture… I suppose we could ask Jack about it, as it was his Miracle, to begin with.
And he does want to talk, it seems.
