# 🛠️ Eternity Arsenal — Inversion-Synced Update
*Codex Update: Legendary Weapons Adapted to the Emergence of The Fourth*
---
## Overview
The legendary weapons forged across the multiverse were once thought to obey the limits of Time, Life, and Death. But with the emergence of **The Fourth**, their deepest truths are mutating. These weapons now exhibit **Inversion Effects** when near the **Null Crown**, **Fourth-Born entities**, or **Elsepaths**.
This document revises the behavior, resonance, and philosophical implications of your core Eternity weapons.

## 🏹 Eternity Bow — *Eternity's Crucible Bow*
**Old Function**: Steam precision + cavitation tunnels + crystal resonance + divine fire guidance
### 🜏 Inversion-Synced Update:
- **Premonition Arrow**: Fires at enemies **before** they appear; damage applies retroactively.
- **Unshot Release**: Occasionally fires the arrow you *meant* to loose last fight.
- **Null Vector Targeting**: Targets are selected not by location but by **intention across Elsepaths**.
- **Ashless Flame Trail**: God-fire now leaves memory residue, not heat — those hit *forget they were ever safe*.
- **Silhouette Echo**: Kills appear as afterimages seconds before they happen.
### Reaction to Null Crown:
- Forms a “Second String” — a glowing tether connecting the user to their alternate self.
- Arrows ignore armor *only if the target regrets wearing it*.
---
## ⚒️ Eternity Crusher — *Eternitys Reality Maul*
**Old Function**: Seismic + abyssal pressure + geological + steam-powered reality fractures
### 🜏 Inversion-Synced Update:
- **Impact Reversal**: Can “undo” a terrain state—stone reforms, enemies revert positions.
- **Cracks in Concept**: Shatters not stone but the **idea** of resistance — walls become “disagreements,” armor becomes “hopeful.”
- **Echo Quake**: Tectonic waves that retroactively cause structural damage *before impact*.
- **Weight of Regret**: Gains power based on how many times a target could have surrendered.
### Reaction to Null Crown:
- Begins “thinking aloud”; mechanical consciousness comments on *better lives* the wielder could be living.
- Ground impacted begins echoing *lost choices* — footsteps sound like what might have been.
---
## ☄️ Eternity Reaper — *Steam-Void Soul Scythe*
**Old Function**: Shadow void harvesting + divine fire + abyssal pressure + mechanical soul processing
### 🜏 Inversion-Synced Update:
- **Memory Reap**: Harvests living memories instead of souls — victim forgets who they were mid-battle.
- **Paradox Slice**: Strikes across timelines, causing cumulative damage from three realities.
- **Echo-Burn**: Divine fire now burns *what was said* — scythe can silence voices by cutting their meaning.
- **Void-Shifted Wounds**: Damage migrates between parallel selves.
### Reaction to Null Crown:
- Scythe hums when lies are told.
- If held during a Crown Ascension, begins processing **the Unchoir** directly.
---
## 🔥 Eternity Blade — *The Crucible Blade*
**Old Function**: Divine fire + reality cutting + steam pressure + geological consciousness
### 🜏 Inversion-Synced Update:
- **Stillfire Edge**: Blade burns with fire that **freezes emotion** — wrath becomes serenity; fear becomes numb clarity.
- **Elsecut**: Slices through *unrealized outcomes* — can cause wounds from decisions not taken.
- **Tectonic Silence**: Strikes mute geography — mountains forget how to echo.
- **Phase Echo**: Swing leaves trails of “other yous” striking from other paths.
### Reaction to Null Crown:
- Reflects the wielders **Unchosen Self** in its surface.
- Begins refusing strikes it believes are “not aligned with the wielders truth.”

## ⚠️ Null Effect Containment
When any **two or more Eternity Weapons** are brought into proximity of an active **Stage IV Null Crown**, the following occurs:
- **Reality Bleed**: Battlefields shift through Elsepaths — doors and windows lead to never-built versions of the arena.
- **Sync Echo**: The weapons harmonize, causing strange boons:
- **Maul + Reaper**: Enemies forget how they died.
- **Blade + Bow**: Time bends around emotional truth — lovers move faster, traitors slow down.
- **Bow + Reaper + Crown**: An arrow finds your **most impactful past mistake** and strikes it.
---
## Summary
The Eternity Arsenal no longer obeys the rules it was forged under. Each weapon now carries echoes of **choice**, **memory**, and **non-linearity**. As The Fourths influence spreads, their power becomes less about *what they do*… and more about *who you could have been when you used them.*
