Hello Scholar & Scribe,

A few years ago, I serialized six novellas of Hunting Midnight here on Hive. I stopped at six, because book #7 hadn't been finished. And in that time, I started exploring more reader focussed communities that I might syndicate or relaunch into.

I found (or rather, rediscovered) the vibrant reader base at Royal Road and decided that I wanted to try a launch there, but only if I could shake the cobwebs off the keyboard and actually finish the dang story.

As of yesterday, I am happy to report that Hunting Midnight, Volume 1, is complete at nine novellas and almost a quarter million words! I'll still be spending some time editing and polishing and getting ready for a launch on Royal Road in the coming weeks.

In the meantime, I thought I'd ping my old readlist and let them know. I also plan to DM y'all on Discord with a request for some help in the launch :) I think I found most of you there, but if you're not interested (or are very interested!) feel free to leave me a comment here too.

The Hourglass and the Iron Fist: On the Futility of Hiding and the Illusion of Control

The Arithmetic of Futility

How much time are you willing to waste?

Not minutes. Not hours. But years. Decades. The precious, non-renewable currency of your own existence. How many sunrises will you miss while you stare into the abyss of a ledger that stares back with unblinking indifference? How many connections will you sever, how many bridges will you burn, how much of your soul will you erode in the frantic, exhausting labor of trying to hide what is already written in stone?

You are trying to hold back the tide with a sieve. You are trying to whisper a secret in a room made of glass.

You can never hide the truth on a blockchain.

It is not a suggestion. It is not a possibility. It is a mathematical certainty. Every transaction is a footprint. Every delegation is a thread. Every vote is a signature. They do not fade. They do not blur. They accumulate, layer upon layer, until the picture is so clear, so stark, so undeniably bright that no amount of shadow can obscure it. The more you try to hide, the more you illuminate. The more you twist, the more you reveal.

Why would you spend your life building a maze when the map is public? Why would you spend your energy constructing a lie when the truth is free, instant, and immutable?

The Theater of Decentralization

And while you waste your time hiding, let us speak plainly about the stage upon which you perform.

You call it "decentralized." You wear the word like a crown. You speak of community, of consensus, of distributed power. But look at the throne. Look at who sits upon it.

You cannot call something decentralized when it is controlled by one person who calls all the shots.

Decentralization is not a marketing slogan. It is not a logo on a website. It is a structure. It is a system where power is dispersed, where no single voice can drown out the chorus, where no single hand can steer the ship alone.

But when one person holds the keys to the treasury, when one person dictates the voting rings, when one person decides who is rewarded and who is silenced, you do not have a network. You have a kingdom. You do not have a community. You have a court. And you are not citizens; you are subjects.

To call this "decentralized" is an insult to the very concept. It is a contradiction in terms. It is like calling a prison a playground because the bars are made of gold. It is like calling a dictatorship a democracy because the dictator holds an election once every ten years.

The Cost of the Illusion

The tragedy is not just that you are lying. The tragedy is that you are wasting your potential on a lie that everyone can see.

You could be building. You could be creating. You could be leading with integrity, with transparency, with the courage to let the data speak for itself. Instead, you are hiding. You are manipulating. You are concentrating power in hands that were never meant to hold it all.

And for what? For the fleeting comfort of control? For the temporary illusion of authority?

The blockchain does not care about your title. It does not care about your narrative. It only cares about the hash. And the hash says: Centralized. Controlled. Closed.

A Call to Clarity

So, stop.

Stop wasting your time. Stop hiding from the mirror. Stop pretending that a fiefdom is a federation.

If you believe in decentralization, prove it. Distribute the power. Open the books. Let the community breathe. Let the data flow. Let the truth stand on its own merits, without your heavy hand guiding it.

But if you cannot do that—if you must control every shot, every vote, every reward—then have the courage to admit it. Call it what it is. Do not insult the intelligence of those who can read the ledger. Do not insult the integrity of those who know that blockchains don’t lie.

The clock is ticking. The ledger is recording. And the world is watching.

Choose wisely. Choose truth. Choose freedom. Or choose to keep wasting your life hiding from a light that will never go out.

How much time are you willing to waste hiding the truth? You can’t. The blockchain sees all. And you can’t call it decentralized when one person calls all the shots. It’s time to admit the truth. #TruthUnsilenced #DecentralizationIsNotALie
