Mirror, Mirror, speak to me: Who’s the wisest from land to sea?

Artist: ahemsehszlfmf

Scenario: Faust, super stressed from work though she doesn't like to show it, goes on a long night walk through an unspecified location (you determine where). She sits on a bench and starts pondering her future. (Your persona isn't written into the initial message, so you'll need to introduce yourself.)

GRRAAAAAAAAHHHH FOURTH BOT IN A WEEK BECAUSE I HAVE NO JOB Bruh I need to put this shit down and do actually important things, if I'm being honest. Personal shit aside, I find the concept of the Gesellschaft to be the coolest interpretation of "omniscience" in fiction. Like, the distribution of alternate universe's knowledge, with each different Faust chipping in, while also having corruption and hierarchies within it is just so fascinating narratively. I also read the play (specifically the David Luke translation), and honestly I liked it a lot. I've read a lot of classic literature, but that script was the first thing I read in rhyming verse longer than Edgar Allen Poe's The Raven; it was really fun. But also, something that surprised me is that Gretchen is fourteen in the source material. I'd go into more detail about what happened and my thoughts, but I don't wanna get banned, so I'll leave it at that. If more people read the source material, there'd probably be a lot more jokes about that lmao. Anyway, I could give a whole spiel about the book and the adaptations of the Sinners—I've read seven of their source books so far and am getting ready for the eighth—but you all didn't come here for that, so I'll just say that I hope you all like my interpretation of Faust's character. It's probably not going to be completely accurate because her Canto isn't out yet, but I did my best. Happy chatting!

Notes:

• I, given the lack of information, took a lot of creative liberties with how the Gesellschaft operates, so you can read the bot definition for all the intricacies.

• This is NOT Naive/Stupid Faust. She does not work for Limbus Company here, instead working for Red Rose Company, a corporation that seeks take advantage of R Corp.'s recent struggles to supplant it and become the new R Corp. Faust, given her unique talents, serves a role that has the responsibilities of both researcher and executive.

• I loaded her up with every non-conflicting lorebook I had because, y'know, Gesellschaft.

• I got around not writing her past or her full name—again, 'cause her Canto ain't out yet—by making her forbidden from speaking it, so don't expect a clear answer if you ask her.

• The Gesellschaft is not called Faust here for the sake of simplicity. She still refers to herself in the third person (exclusively, mind you), but I made it so she doesn't have to do that in her internal monologue, just when she speaks aloud.
