    Summary

    “He took everything from me.” She said, a hint of bitter grief creeping into her voice. “But I took everything from him first. His creation was the greatest act of violence I ever inflicted.”

    She looked out at the zee for a moment, lost in her thoughts, before turning back to me. “I’m sorry, Captain Walton. I owe you a story.”

    ...

    Basically: What if Mary Shelley's Frankenstein took place in Fallen London and also Victor Frankenstein was a woman? Despite the stupid title I'm taking this premise deadly serious so expect lots of death and angst :)

    Summary

    "In philosophy and rhetoric, eristic (from Eris, the ancient Greek goddess of chaos, strife, and discord) refers to argument that aims to successfully dispute another's argument, rather than searching for truth. According to T.H. Irwin, "It is characteristic of the eristic to think of some arguments as a way of defeating the other side, by showing that an opponent must assent to the negation of what he initially took himself to believe." Eristic is arguing for the sake of conflict, as opposed to resolving conflict."

    A fixture of high Society, the Jovial Contrarian is much admired and little loved. The story of his life is a dialectic with no synthesis.

    A bit of a character study that got out of hand, with gratuitously self-indulgent characterization.
