I'm pretty sure that's the other persona Order boy developed. Most of the invisitext from older posts was him starting to take shape, iirc. A bit of him and a bit of us all put together and voilà, another wacko for the party!

So now we have Order Boy/Chaos Boy. Yeah! We're getting a family together! The Dark Brotherhood won't know what hit it.

In the future we're going to deeply regret that update as the point this became a cross over quest.....

To be fair that wouldn't be the update should that hypothetical happen. It would be the update when you invoked Khorne's name

We better not start throwing around certain names... just in case. If it happens, I already know who's to blame

Not difficult given that we're not sure whats going to hit it. Between Anvil and Skingrad we've gone from a suicidal woman and her insane deadra to a woman working over her suicidal instincts due to her new position as mother/big sister to a reformed teenage necromancer with 5 insane deadra and offers extended to an alliterating guard and professional thief to join the band.
By the time we get to fucking Cheydinhal there'll be a full dozen of us and only 5 competent fighters.
I did mean the battle cry spider stomping update, its why I used past tense that rather than this. However I can see where the mistake could be made.To be fair that wouldn't be the update should that hypothetical happen. It would be the update when you invoked Khorne's name

Damn, I didn't notice that before. That's not a bug/feature that's me screwing up. Fixing now.
Edit: Just checked I didn't screw up by switching styles and holy crap does Order-Friend's light blue text become obnoxious on the default style! Like my eyes are still bleeding from reflexively trying to read it via intense squinting.

Or rather, a being created by the interplay between us and Blue.

There is only one acceptable course of action now that you have three backup Knights of Order. Barbershop Quartet! And you know just what to sing.
You focus on the three identical knights and mentally assign the roles. You are, of course, the lead. The leftmost knight can provide the bass, the rightmost the tenor while the middle knight will take baritone and be happy about it. Then you start, all on your lonesome, and push the song at your three backup daedra.
At once they start their crystalline counterparts to your lead vocal. The left, bass knight, sweeping low under your voice, rich and resonant in a way that reminds you a huge bell chiming. Tenor knight skips along above your lead, voice almost twinkling with that odd crystal tone you all share. Baritone knight finishes the classic barbershop chord just under you with a sound that reminds you most of someone blowing over the top of an almost empty bottle.
It's not a bad sound, just kind of weird and not quite human sounding.
"I should have expected this yet somehow I did not." Morlia deadpans, expression vaguely horrified.
"Don't be like that, it sounds great." Diana chirps, partly in harmony with you and your backup singers. "Hey, we could turn this into an act and earn some money with it!"
"Absolutely not!" Morlia fixes you with a glare for, however unintentionally, putting that idea into Diana's head. Then her eyes flick past you, rest on Sullinus for a moment then slide to Lucas. Unconscious Lucas slumped against a wall. Lucas who's kinda-sorta wanted for thievery, breaking and entering and who knows what else.
Sobriety and general sensibility smashes into you like a comically large anvil. Now you've tested your control of you three minions, and found it pretty damn good, you do something productive with them. Bass and Baritone hurry towards Lucas, blocking Freyja's eye line with their bodies, pick up the thief and carry him into the next room, the one Sullinus sprang from earlier.
"Thought it was a little crowded in here with four of me." You say cheerily to explain the two disappearing knights.
"Yeah... just a bit crowded." Freyja nods slowly and casts a glance around suspiciously before focussing on Sullinus. She approaches the mage cautiously, you follow and subtle motion for Morlia and/or Diana to go check on Lucas in the next room. It would be most unfortunate if he was dead or horribly maimed.
Freyja kneels in front of Sullinus. "Sir?" She reaches out and takes hold of his shoulder. "Sir are you alright?" You clank down to Sullinus' eye level when he doesn't answer her.
"Hey, Sullinus, you want to explain what happened here?" You refrain from demanding answers about why he thought it was a good idea to mess around with Order even though you told him not to.
"Y-You took control of the obelisk... stopped it spreading... b-but not the voices...." Uh that's potentially very not good. Freyja glances at you warily.
"Grabbed the obelisk grabbed the daedra with it. But each obelisk has a priest as well as the knights we saw... I think Sullinus is the priest for this obelisk." You tell her and she frowns.
"Do you have control of him like you do the daedra?" She doesn't sound happy about the possibility that you do.
"I don't know..." that stuff about voices though.... You should probably investigate that.

I did research into barbershop quartets for this and now the knights are named Bass, Baritone and Tenor. @Dark as Silver I hope you're happy

What if he can hear votes? That means we could include like, a vote that goes
[X] Sullinus: Stand up!
And see if he perceives that as an order or instruction or something.

[X] Experiments with Sullinus
-[X] Figure out if he is hearing our voices. "Supercalifragilisticepealidocious!" Or if he is still hearing the voice of Order. Or something else.
[X] Explaining more to Freyja
-[X] Quick summary of the situation, knight of order, greymarch, destruction of the world, and why we told Sullinus not to meddle. And then he did anyway.
-[X] But no worries! The world is saved. Probably.
