[[Geneva Scala|Geneva]]'s mind tampering that was revealed at the end of the previous chapter was truly damning proof that the [[Minacien Wall]] had been breached. The [[Contradiction|Second Mind]] acted swiftly, but it alone could not breach the citadel to reach other [[The Minds|Minds]]. Even worse, it had no allies. All five other Minds were united against it as a battle raged for over nine hours between them. The result was inevitable. The following day when Geneva reported to the minds, the Second Mind was reported as alive. It was mentally beaten down into submission until they all thought alike. Geneva did all that she could from there which was mainly to get back to work. | [[Geneva Scala|Geneva]]'s mind tampering that was revealed at the end of the previous chapter was truly damning proof that the [[Minacien Wall]] had been breached.

During an experiment where she wanted to test the Periodic Table and magic, Geneva got a sample of [[Selphids|Selphid]] flesh under a microscope and found it to be completely foreign. The cells themselves had no nuclei and had jagged edges that grew like fruit on a vine - completely different than any cell humans have ever seen.

The cells themselves had no nuclei and had jagged edges that grew like fruit on a vine - completely different than any cell humans have ever seen. She dreamt that night of a Selphid-Geneva taunting her about the futility of her situation. She saw the other side of the Minacien Wall as she and the Second Mind drowned behind it. Geneva woke in a frenzy and tore through her belongings until she found a piece of flesh from [[A’ctelios Salash|A'ctelios Salash]] that turned out to be very similar to the Selphid sample she'd looked at previously showing that the two had some sort of common ancestry or relation. The following day, she reported this to the Minds, and they swore her to silence with which she naturally agreed. Geneva also entered the body of the First Mind and had blood drawn from her while she was there. From there, the Minds showed her bodies in their deepest floors that had once been dead but had been brought back to some semblance of life albeit with no levels or classes. Geneva tried to stop this, but did not get a satisfactory guarantee and was brought back up against her will. | ||
Geneva's mind got more muddled in the following days. Her sleep was not fulfilling her, and her one ally in Contradiction was fading as well. It gathered the mental fortitude to remind her of the past by showing Geneva [[Okasha]] stuck in a jar and letting the two talk, but they could do nothing else. When Okasha was brought forth a second time Geneva forgave her and promised to speak to the Minds about the selphid's treatment, but she knew they would do nothing. Instead, she put in place a plan to end her own torment. She set herself to wake up in the middle of the night and poison herself by eating a piece of Tombhome's flesh. She was stopped from this at the last moment by [[Ressk]] and a few other selphids that realized the horrible path their Minds were going down. They had fought their way to her and attempted to fight their way out to the Titan. They took heavy casualties trying to escape and eventually made it to the second floor where they encountered [[Calectus]]. Calectus killed the remaining rebels leaving Geneva with only her original choice of eating the flesh of A'ctelios Salash, but even this was taken away from her by the Second Mind who knocked it from her hand. The days thereafter grew even more bleak. Contradiction stopped interacting with the outside world entirely and the Selphid-Geneva continued to taunt her. On the final day Geneva regained full lucidity, but at this point it was too late. | Geneva's mind got more muddled in the following days.
