Cebrail 10, 1790 – A sentient magical construct known as a Nigoda has materialized in the Patali manufacturing hub, causing significant chaos and an unknown number of disappearances. The Maharajahnate of Lemuria [1] has issued an urgent public safety warning, while the extraterritorial corporation Pantagruel Inc. [2] has been accused of downplaying the crisis to maintain production.
The Patali manufacturing district is a sprawling industrial center and a vital economic engine within the Maharajahnate of Lemuria. While situated within the nation’s borders, the district operates under the extraterritorial control of Pantagruel Inc. Patali is a nexus of both industrial power and mystical energy, with its machinery and supply chains heavily dependent on stable Orgone torture networks and sympathetic connections that crisscross the land. This delicate balance of magic and industry is now in jeopardy.

However, a previously dormant and ancient threat abruptly re-entered the realm. The event has created a profound split in the response from the Dharmist Priesthood, which holds spiritual and civic authority, and Pantagruel Inc., which prioritizes its economic output above all else. The citizens find themselves caught between a sacred duty to protect their souls and a corporate mandate to continue working.
The Nigoda’s appearance was sudden and without warning, materializing near a primary torture chamber in the industrial hub. Eyewitnesses describe a grotesque, teleporting tower of discordant matter: gems, gravel, sand, mud, smoke, and shadows woven with countless insects. Initial reports from frightened workers spoke of the construct consuming everything in its path, from raw materials to living beings. The Nigoda does not merely destroy; it absorbs and digests, a fatal process with no known reprieve.

Beyond the written words, the story unfolds:
The immediate effect was widespread panic. Work in several key sectors of the hub ceased as workers, fearing for their lives, fled their posts. The sudden disruption rippled through the supply chains, halting the movement of critical resources. A significant, but as yet unconfirmed, number of Pantagruel employees are now listed as missing. Search parties organized by the megacorporation’s security teams have so far been unsuccessful, with a clear directive to avoid the Nigoda’s location at all costs. The construct’s unpredictable nature makes it a constant and uncontainable threat, as it can appear anywhere at any time.

In response to the crisis, the Dharmist Priesthood immediately issued a public safety alert, broadcast widely across the Maharajahnate. The message was unequivocal: “The Nigodas are a profound threat to all sentient life. To engage with them is to embrace oblivion and derail one’s rightful Gilgul, the process of reincarnation that ensures the soul’s return to the cycle of existence.” The alert rightly framed the Nigoda not just as a physical danger, but as a spiritual one that threatens the very essence of a Kenomitian’s being. The message urged citizens to maintain a maximum safe distance and report any sightings to the authorities.

Pantagruel Inc.’s response, however, was markedly different. An internal memo, leaked to a local news consortium, instructed supervisors to “minimize panic” and “ensure production targets are not severely impacted.” The corporation’s official statements have downplayed the severity of the threat, referring to the Nigoda as an “anomalous magical presence” that Pantagruel’s “magi-tech specialists are actively working to contain.” This has created a direct conflict between the Maharajahnate’s sovereign authority and the megacorporation’s economic interests. A security guard from Pantagruel, speaking on condition of anonymity, provided his perspective: “They’re telling us to keep working, to just ‘avoid the big scary rock,’ but the Priests are saying it will literally devour our soul. The fear is real out here, and they just care about their Orgone quota.”

The crisis in Patali has sent shockwaves through the Maharajahnate’s economy and society. The disruption of sympathetic connections and Orgone currents by the Nigoda has not only paralyzed industrial output but has also interfered with the Dharmist Priesthood’s magical practices, which rely on the same energy grid. Some lower-level magical rituals are reportedly failing or producing unpredictable results.

The immediate future of the Patali hub is uncertain. Pantagruel Inc. has fortified the areas adjacent to the Nigoda’s current location, but these measures are largely viewed as symbolic given the construct’s ability to teleport. There has been no official statement from the Maharajah, but sources within the Dharmist Priesthood hint at a potential ultimatum to Pantagruel: cooperate with the national directive or face severe sanctions. As the populace grapples with the conflicting warnings and the unsettling reality of a primordial threat to their Gilgul, the unfolding crisis serves as a stark reminder of the fragile balance between spiritual life, civic authority, and corporate power in Kenoma.
Notes extracted from the Kenomitian Compendium
[1] Maharajahnate of Lemuria: is a crystal‑spires, neo‑feudal absolute monarchy grounded in Indian‑Ocean cultures; capital Shalmali (New Delhi). Society follows a gene‑engineered caste ladder—Mahachohan to Nada—with Kahata (Hindi) as lingua franca and Moryan scripts. It runs off‑world and extra‑dimensional colonies and grants megacorporate extraterritoriality (Nuit Macroengineering, Ra‑Hoor‑Khuit, etc.). Biopolitics govern status: Peshat/Remez/Derash are citizens; Sod & Partzufim are engineered for elite/covert roles (Drakes/Archangels); Cambions are executed; slavery abolished. Law ties automata/AI, uplifted tlavati, necromancy, and psychic autonomy to creator‑caste and consent; cold war with Avichaem, aiding Cyranides vs. Ouroboros; EM Rank 11; flag scarlet‑wheel triband; anthem “Song of the Dharma”-

[2] Pantagruel Inc.: is a Solar‑Punk megacorporation inspired by Śrīvijaya; nominally capitalist but functionally fascist. It runs extra‑planetary colonies on Báb, ‘Ālam‑i dharr, Behenius, Horos, and Hypsiphrone, plus extra‑dimensional outposts; often repels Thulean raids. Pardes Laws graft Lemurian castes onto corporate life: no distinction between national and corporate citizens; segregation is brutally enforced. Peshat/Remez/Derash are microchipped employees; Sod are re‑engineered with visible cybernetics; Partzufim are brainwashed for black‑ops/ executive/ occult/ security roles; Nephilim count as Partzufim; Emmakha treatment follows caste. Automata, mundane AIs, and uplifted tlavati are (with exceptions) corporate property; epimorphism/necromancy permitted only on slaves or corpse assets; psychomancy/telegnosis allowed on slaves/POWs (recording/empathy excepted for free citizens); slavery “abolished” with a voluntary‑slavery loophole; Megacorp Rank 6; logo: red Telassar shieldate; slogan: “Join us”.

I am really amazed whenever I read any kenomitian episode. The author has such an imagination! Some episodes look like a premonition and that is scary.
