Becoming a Weird Tale Counts as Success

Weird tales, bizarre entities that feed on cognition, wield information as weapons, and use data as currency. They are neither living beings nor dead objects, existing in human rumors, dwelling in the shadows of the world.

"Does this mean I will become a weird tale?"

In ancient times, they were worshipped as gods and spirits, growing powerful through faith.

"Then I am a god!"

In medieval times, they were feared as demons and monsters, nourished by terror.

"I will become the lord of weird tales!"

But under the scouring torrent of the ages, they gradually vanished without a trace, leaving only passages of text dismissed as ravings.

"Restoring the glory of weird tales is our bounden duty."

But you are not a weird tale yet, hmm, nor are you human.

"Alright, becoming a weird tale counts as success."
