[It is something that reminds Grimm of his own contrast to the Radiance, to his sealed away sister. The Kingdom of Hallownest thrived with those who worshiped the Pale King and the free will he bestowed upon them. The Nightmare King had his own followers in the past but...no more.
Grimm stood with the Troupe and them alone. Not as a God and his worshipers but as Master and actors within their endless song. He refused to accept praise as the God of Nightmares, refused to step on the free wills of those who chose to put on a mask and enter the Troupe's everlasting dance.
A failure of a God. But a God free of his throne.
Getting a straight answer (or as straight of an answer as the Pale King ever gives) surprises Grimm but generally these rare moments were the beginning of something good, interesting or both. Stepping out of the closet himself, Grimm is silent for a moment as he stretches with a groan. It appears that his height was a problem for once and working the kinks out of his body takes a moment.
Flexibility was endlessly useful for performances but that did not mean holding these poses did not cause discomfort!
Grimm can still see how distracted the Pale King is. If this was any other situation he would have long since started working again. A way to distract the Pale King from his work was to present a big enough puzzle to gain his attention but this time the puzzle was in his own head.
The perfect machine encountering the perfect error.]
Perhaps we can work it out together. What is missing from this puzzle presented before you? Is it a particular question or subject you seek the answer to?
