Keep the real Portable Hole in the head of a Pumpkin Leshy, who will wear a Mindblank and ride around in a hollowed out, lead-clad Black Knight, who will also wear a Mindblank, and who will be brought to Bloodraven via Treestride by Viserys in between summoning batches.

...Sure, give me a minute, I'll edit that in.
Actually, not sure it gonna be a good idea.
Uncle asked not to bring too powerful energy fields to his place, and I feel like the piles of thoussnds of sacrifices in Portable Holes would kinda count considering they're Demons.

Yeah, alright, fair enough, @Azel.
Added this clause:
-[] The real Portable Holes, once filled with petrified and Leaded Brimoraks, would be put inside the head of a Pumpkin Leshy, who'll be given a Mindblank item.
--[] That Pumpkin Leshy would further be put inside a hollowed-out, lead-clad Black Knight. Who'll also have a Mind Blank.
---[] The Black Knight will be near Yss' Avatar, maybe in the pool, we'll politely ask to keep watch over it for a while we'll spend preparing the main ritual. We'll toss a few sacrifices Yss' way later for this.

This is a shitshow and I'm proud of it.
Not too sure about keeping the real stuff so far away from the action, but double-Mindblank and double-lead should really be good enough to keep even that many Demons unnoticed if next to Yss' CR30 Avatar.
Night, y'all.

So I have a few questions which I will ask over the next couple of days as I figure out how to word them.
One of them pertains to our brother Rhaegar. If I remember correctly one of the reasons we didn't resurrect him was due to us not wishing to make the succession of the throne any more complex, but I do wonder and I not sure if this had been brought up before, but where is his soul right now?
Similarly where are the souls of our other dead family members, specifically our dear old dad.

We don't know OOC, although Viserys probably divined that IC before.
Kinda a big thing to cover out of nowhere on-screen though, and DP usually adamantly refuses to give such 'important IC knowledge' off-screen.
Much for the same reason we never went on to restore his body via Miracle and curse it to be near-unressurectable, so he technically could be brought back to life via an enemy party in a desperate bid to sabotage us/our rule.
It'd utterly fail, of course, and all the big factions would know that too.
DP gave "very good chances" on the Abyss, assuming he even 'survived' astral plane soul-searching monsters, which not all petitioners seem to do... at least, outside of their narrative importance.

Ah, Thank you for answering my question. With us summoning Demons I was thinking of the Abyss and who might be in it... and who might soon be in it

I have no words, I've spent the last 40 minutes laughing till I almost vomited at the sheer spiteful fuckery produced by the thread. This is a level of pettiness so vile that if the Court of Stars ever understands or learns of it they'd take the damn knee and swear vassalage out of pure admiration.

Viserys has not divined it because he does not want to know. His feelings towards Rhaegar are ambivalent to say the least and he's not sure how he would react if he saw him brother being hunted by demons or something.

@egoo Don't store the undead receptacle in Yss' temple. I don't understand how we'd get over the logistical hurdle of having to shrink the Demons inside of the snare demiplanes, and then transport them to the Material Plane, then having the Herald continually reapplying the Shrink Item effect so as to keep the whole bunch smol-ified. Other than occasionally opening a Gate outside Yss' temple. Also, the coming and going in and out of it would make it pretty obvious. Edit: I guess you could open the Gate inside of his Temple... though that seems very rude! Also, probably not metaphysically subtle.

That reminds me, after we set off the Varys nuke should we divine where their souls end up?
I mean, resurrection is a thing and Cersei, bitch that she is, would probably get raised by her dad if she's useful enough and she's more than spiteful enough to jump at the chance for revenge.
Jaime would also definitely be on that list though he might refuse because he's sick of everyone's shit and we've made steps to make sure the kids are spared the backlash of their parents' and grandfather's fuckery.

- You'd never be able to guess, eh?
On the point of for some reason moving the real hole outside of our bullshit defences. Even if somehow some intruder manages to survive long enough.
Your demons is in another castle.
We are so bullshit.

The Snare itself is on the Prime Material and we can technically travel stealthy from and to there by using regular Teleport, which is not very metaphysically obvious, but you are still right that there is a logistical problem. Namely that I keep forgetting that even we can't leave the Snare in less then a few minutes, so we would be locking away our own guards with this.
Reversing the latest addition, @egoo.
[X] Summoned Brimoraks will be subjected to the Shrink Item Chamber operated by a Herald at each Summoning site, then stored in a Portable Hole, guarded by that Herald and the additional forces already present at the main Snare (near Sorcerer's Deep)
-[X] As an additional layer of obfuscation, each shrunken Brimorak statue will be dipped in a lead before going into storage.
-[X] Have x2000 lead-clad Firefly units created (100,000 IM). Also re-assign 1,000x Spitters and 500x Spitter Swarms from "Inquisition Forces"-pool there too.
--[X] Have the Portable hole inserted into one of the swarm whenever one is filled up. All of the Fireflies are to be also filled with Holy Water and ordered to attack anyone except for the overseeing Harbinger that attempts to catch them or order them around.
---[X] Have the compartments of 20 Fireflies contain the Portable hole decoys Permanenced with diamond dust with Vacuous Vessel and auras of Portable Hole item created via Magic Aura spell.
----[X] Also have Vacuous Vessel cast and Permanenced with diamond dust on compartments of 100 random Fireflies for misdirection against magic-detecting senses.
-----[X] Have a partially overlapping number of Fireflies affected by a Magic Aura spell, some showing up as just Portable Holes, some as affected by Vacuous Vessel, and some as Vacuous Vessel and a Puzzle Box. All while in divination-and-magic-vision-impending- lead covering of the Firefly.
---[X] Have compartments of 20 random Fireflies covered with a Magic Aura copying the aura of a Portable Hole and containing a scroll case that is made to look as if a Portable Hole could have been rolled up inside, but instead, there is only a note: "I prepared Explosive Rune today."
---[X] Have compartments of another 10 random Fireflies covered with a Magic Aura copying the aura of a Portable Hole and containing an explosive charge, with a proximity fuse triggered when opened without saying the password. And a Hardened (to survive he explosion) note saying: "Oh, here it is."
---[X] Have compartments of another 5 random Fireflies covered with a Magic Aura copying the aura of a Portable Hole, and containing a vial of Giant Spider venom, set up to spill out explosively when compartment is open without a saying a password, a sum of 100 IM and a note "You win!".
---[X] Have 5 of the random Fireflies set up with a cloak of Chyber permanenced via Diamind Dust and a Magic Aura spell to specifically look suspiciously non-magical to magic-sensing abilities. Have them be ordered to take flight through the most uncomfortable and crowded positions around the swarm instead of fighting whenever swarm is attacked, looking as if evading capture.
---[X] Have 20 random Fireflies have another Firefly stored inside of their compartments, shrunken.
---[X] Have one of the Fireflies contain a progressively complicated series of riddles nestled upon each other which ends up with them performing menial tasks for us and finally with a formal offer of employment from us, if they can solve it all.
---[X] Have 25 random Fireflies have one Petrified/leaded/shrunken Brimorak in each of them, possibly crossing over with some Fireflies carrying "decoy Portable Holes" and/or Magic Auras, just in case a demon-sensing ability of any sort is applied.
---[X] Have 25 random Fireflies have one frozen Holy Water statue shaped perfectly like a Petrified Brimorak in each of them, and also covered with Magic Auras, making them feel like petrified Demons.
----[X] Also have the (real) Portable Holes themselves Permanenced with Diamond Dust with Vacuous Vessel. And with Puzzle Box.
--[X] Since Qyburn is already decanted and mostly working on cataloging his new knowledge / learning spells, have him do so in the Snare so that he is on hand in case of an incursion or to do maintenance on the undead if anything unexpected happens.
