The **Treehouse** is a location in the *Zombie Universe* series.

## History

* Zombie Universe
* Zombie Universe 2

The treehouse played host to three survivors of the zombie apocalypse: The Leader, the Squealer, and the Sword Guy. The kids stayed there for at least a day, all doing their apporpriate jobs: the Leader sharpens his machetes, the Sword Guy plays with his sword, and the Squealer keeps the treehouse clean with the scrubber as she would have done at home.

That night, a zombie stalks the treehouse and the Leader has a nightmare about it. When he awakens, startled, he dismisses it as a dream and goes back to sleep.

In the morning of the next day, the kids, led by the Leader, jumped out of the treehouse to relocate and find another temporary hideout.

As they ran off through the woods, the kids never looked back at the treehouse, and it is unknown if they ever returned.
After killing the Leader, the Squealer and the Sword Guy walked off into the distance, toward the house.

## Biography

* Zombie Universe
* Zombie Universe 2
* Zombie Universe 3

The Squealer is one of the three kids to have survived the beginning zombie apocalypse together. They find a temporary camp in a tree house and then settle down and proceed to do their assigned work - The Leader sharpens his machetes, The Squealer scrubs the floor to keep it clean, and The Sword Guy sharpens his shurikens. The Leader asks if the others know about the kid who used to live at the house near the treehouse, and the Squealer asks about him. The Sword Guy comments that the kid is a zombie now, and the Leader says that there are rumors that the zombie haunts these parts at night, unaware that it is actually outside the window, listening to the Leader's story. He scares the Squealer by producing his hand-held knife right at her, and then laughs, saying that there are no zombies here.

The next morning, the Squealer is woken up by the Leader and the Sword Guy. The Leader announces they they need to find a new hideout. He jumps out of the treehouse and leads his team through the forest.

In another part of the woods, the Sword Guy comments that there aren't a lot of good places in that area. The Leader says that they should get moving, as the Zombie Horde will be on them at any moment. The Squealer urges them to move on, and so they run up the hill.

A few moments later, a Zombie emerges from behind a tree. The Leader tells his team to run, but then they encounter another one of the creatures at the bottom of the hill. The Squealer and the Sword Guy fight against a Zombie, and succeed in wounding him, but he vanishes before they can finish him off. They take a glance at the Leader and see a Zombie attack him. The Squealer stabs the Zombie, killing it, but they assume the Leader to be dead, and so they start to walk away. But then the Leader wakes up as a Zombie and chases the Squealer and the Sword Guy. The Squealer silences him with her machete. She shrugs her shoulders and walks with the Sword Guy toward the house.

*SCENE: A Treehouse. Present. Three kids, the Leader, the Squealer, and the Sword Guy, are sitting in the treehouse doing their respective activies: The Leader sharpens his machetes, the Sword Guy works with his sword, and the Squealer keeps the treehouse clean with a scrubber.*

**The Leader:** Have you guys heard about the kid who used to live here?

**The Squealer:** *(looks up)* What about him?

**The Sword Guy:** I heard he's a zombie now!

**The Squealer:** Ooh, when did he get stung?

**The Leader:** About six months ago, I heard. But some say he still comes down here at night.

*(Outside the window of the treehouse, a zombie spots the kids and growls)*

**The Leader:** And then, he comes up behind you, and he gets you right in the back! *(He produces his wrist knife at the Squealer, and she screams. The Leader puts the knife back in and laughs with the Sword Guy)*

**The Leader:** Come on, guys. There's no zombie here. Or is there...?

*(That night, everyone is sleeping when the Leader shakes in his sleep. The zombie is outside the window, and the Leader produces his knife to ward it off. But the zombie isn't really there, and the Leader dismisses it as a dream and goes back to sleep)*

*(The next morning, the Leader wakes up)*

**The Leader:** Oh, it was just a dream, scared myself for that stupid... *(The Leader looks down at scratch marks in the window, but then looks away and begins banging his swords together)* All right, everybody up! Everybody up! *(Thr Sword Guy hits the Squealer on her backside to wake her up)* We gotta find a new camp. Let's go! *(The Leader jumps out of the treehouse, and then the Sword Guy.

During the Apocalypse

At some unknown point before the events of *Zombie Universe*, three kids (The Leader, The Squealer, and The Sword Guy) survive the beginning of a zombie apocalypse. They find a temporary hideout in a Treehouse, and they stay there for an unspecified period of time to avoid detection by zombies. The kids, for no specified reason, are doing tasks assigned to them to keep themselves fresh and ready for any attack that may come - the Leader sharpens his machetes, The Squealer scrubs the floor to keep it clean, and The Sword Guy sharpens his shurikens.

Zombie Universe 2/Transcript

*SCENE: The Woods. Present. Three kids, the Leader, the Squealer, and the Sword Guy, are pacing in a circle of leaves.*

**The Sword Guy:** Ugh, there's no good places around here!

**The Leader:** *(straightens his glasses)* We should find some place soon. This is Zombie territory, the Horde'll be on us any moment.

**The Squealer:** Let's move out!

*(From behind a tree, a Zombie moves out growling. All three kids draw their swords.*

**The Leader, The Squealer, The Sword Guy:** Zombie!

**The Leader:** Back to the treehouse!

*(All three kids turn around and run with their weapons down the hill. The Leader stops when he sees another Zombie crawling up from the ditch.)*

**The Leader:** Another one! Go back! *(He looks at another approaching Zombie)* Another one! *(He runs, between two Zombies, and looks frantically around)* What are we gonna do?

*(The Squealer and the Sword Guy face off against a Zombie, who growls at them until the Sword Guy stabs it in the head and it vanishes)*

JI Polyrhythms

Polyrhythms are two or more independent rhythms played over top of one another. More specifically, they refer to the same amount of time divided into different equally spaced divisions played over top one another. Polyrhythms like harmonic ratios, are notated in Just Intonation. In fact, Harmonic ratios such as 5/4 are actually rhythms themselves played so fast that we hear it as a pitch rather than rhythm. This hints at the fact that we can indeed produce scales, chords, and perhaps even something akin to melody with rhythm alone. This has been a part of african music for quite a long time and it serves as a good example of such musical possibilities.

Like harmonic ratios, polyrhythms are notated as ratios. Do not be confused though, they are NOT time signatures!! Polyrhythms are merely the same amount of time divided differently and played over top one another.  With a polyrhythm of 3/2 we have some abstract amount of time divided into 3 equal parts and the same time divided into two. the beats are then played over top one another. This is a very common rhythm in western popular music as well as many cultures around the globe.  Unfortunately, because much of the west has been so restrictive to strict use of time keeping, it may initially be difficult for you to hear and feel the different polyrhythms, especially in a scale or piece of music. But as you expose your brain more and more to these rhythms, you will begin to see their potential.

## Rhythmic Limit

Rhythmic Limit is how complex a rhythm or rhythms are in a piece or a set. Typically in much the west, we are used to 3-limit rhythmic ideas which involve both rhythms of 2 and 3. 3/2 occurs quite a bit in popular music as well as 2/1. 4/3 also occurs but is not as common as 3/2 possibly because it is utonal. Generally 5-limit and 7-limit rhythms or anything higher in complexity than 3-limit feels awkward and is hard to follow for a large portion of western musicians and is even generally rare around the world.

This makes it worthwhile even to expand horizons to 5-limit rhythms which are more texturally complex and exotic. 7-limit rhythms sound ridiculously complex and even alien to many people and therefore may be harder to work with than 5 limit rhythms. Still, even 11 limit rhythms deserve exploration, but they're harder to do anything with.

### Levels of Complexity

The limit of a polyrhythm determines it's complexity. The complexity of a rhythm is always 1 less than the highest number in the ratio. For example, a rhythm of 3/2 has a complexity of 2 meaning there are two possible note durations in the polyrhythm.
ER 4s3

The simplest non-isochronous Euclidean rhythm that fits into a power of 2, the domain of ubiquitous "common time" and strictly duple rhythmic divisions of Western classical theory. It is the general rhythmic framework of the Renaissance-era *pavane,* and at high speeds it is the familiar "gallop" rhythm of rock and heavy metal.

2:1 polyrhythm

A **2:1 polyrhythm** is a just intonation polyrhythm where one instrument plays at twice the speed of the other. It is the simplest possible polyrhythm. Similar to how an octave doesn't really sound like an interval, a 2:1 polyrhythm doesn't really sound like anything other than two instruments playing on the down beat and only one on the upbeat.
3:2 polyrhythm

A **3:2 polyrhythm**, also known as a **hemiola** or **sesquialtera**, is a just intonation polyrhythm where one instrument plays at 3/2 times the speed of the other. It is one of the simplest polyrhythms and is prevalent in music across the world, occuring quite a bit in popular music. It is particularly important in traditional West African music, where the 3:2 cross-rhythm is the foundation of most typical polyrhythmic textures.

Altera system

The **altera system** is a naming system for just intonation polyrhythms designed by CompactStar. This system names polyrhythms by the Latin prefix for their ratio combined with "altera" (second), based on the widely accepted term "sesquialtera" for 3:2 polyrhythm. If a Latin prefix for a ratio does not exist, a new one will be created based on the derivations of existing ones.

## Polyrhythm names

The **VIS Agree to Disagree** is a large destroyer controlled by the VPMC.

## Description

The *VIS Agree to Disagree* is one of the Hurricane class, which are some of the faster designs of heavy destroyers due to their shape to accommodate more thrusters. If looked at from above, the ship looks like the letter 'T'. The horizontal line of the T is the highest point, whereas the shorter part is the vertical line. It is fixated with huge thrusters on most available spots facing towards the back. The locations of its guns are mostly on the top, bottom or the side of the T, with some on the front.
Swing and notes inégales

**Swing** (originating from jazz) and ***notes inégales*** (from the baroque/classical era) are both names for a rhythmic technique wherein a set of notes (usually pairs of eighths or sixteenth notes), nominally equal in duration, are played unequally.

Swung duple notes, if notated explicitly, are usually termed a "triplet feel", and this is how most classically trained musicians learn it, as Western canon tends to strictly enforce regular divisions; however, study of historical and contemporary performance practice shows that swing and *notes inégales* exist on a continuum, from "straight" 1:1 up to a "hard" 3:1 ratio between long and short notes (think the Marche from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite) which is traditionally considered the limit of swing.

Different degrees of inequality give rise to different names, with the "hardness" or "heaviness" increasing as the inequality increases.

* "Light swing" denotes a small degree of inequality, from ~3:2 to as subtle as 7:5, and is more characteristic of classical/baroque practice. The golden ratio could be a good cutoff point.
* "Medium swing" denotes a greater degree of inequality, up to the vicinity of the triplet feel 2:1.
* "Hard swing" denotes a ratio noticeably higher than 2:1, up to the limit of 3:1. Silver ratio swing can be found here.

Swing can be applied to other note values as well. For example, Irish jigs make use of swing in triplets, where the first two notes of each triplet have medium-hard swing applied. The concept could potentially be extended to modify the ratio of all three notes to each other, for example, a subtly accelerating 6:5:4.
Rhythmic Complexity

Rhythmic Complexity is a term referring to the number of varying widths that exist between attacks in a rhythm. For example, a rhythm of 3/2 has two levels of complexity: distance of 1 and a distance of 2. We might say the distance of 1 is a 1/16th note and 2 is an 1/8th note. Thus the rhythm would be 2 -- 1 - 1 - 2 -- or in differing beats it would look like this:

```
3: X-X-X-

```

```
2: X--X--

```

In the case of a 5/4 rhythm, there are four levels of complexity. It would look like 4 ---- 1 - 3---2--2--3---1-4---- or separately:

```
 5: X---X---X---X---X---

```

```
 4: X----X----X----X----

```

So the distances between the X's are the different levels of complexity.

A rhythm of 7/4 has a whopping six levels of complexity:
Accent Displacement

Accent Displacement is the technique of stressing or accenting beats that normally are unstressed. Accenting can be performed by thickening orchestration as well as increasing volume on the note the musician wishes to accent. It is a form of syncopation usually performed by stressing a beat which occurs on beats in order to displace the listeners sense of time keeping in the music.

It is often confused with "polyrhythms" which are completely independent rhythms played on top of one another and dividing the same amount of time by different numbers.

## Accent Grouping

The most common technique in accent displacement is placing stress on every X number of beats with X normally being a number which is NOT divisible by the time signature numbers. For example a technique used in some complex metal is to place accent on every 5 16th notes in a 4/4 time signature giving a false sense of an odd time signature. Some composers have used this technique to such an extreme that it takes several measures to return to accenting the first beat again.

Below is a few examples: X represents the accent and dots represent the unaccented 16th notes.

Pattern of 5 sixteenth's over 4/4: X . . . . X . . . . X . . . . X | . . . . X . . . . X . . . . X . | . . . X . . . . X . . . . X . . | And so on

Pattern of 6 sixteenth's over 4/4: X . . . . . . X . . . . . . X . | . . . . . X . . . . . . X . . . | . . . X . . . . . . X . . . . . | And so on

You'll notice how the sense of rhythm is thrown off because the beginning of each new bar isn't stressed except on the first beat. The effect is more striking when played with other musicians who are not displacing accents as to add alot of contrast and interest.

Father

**"Father"** is an mysterious entity of unknown origin. He appears both in the Ancient Legends and The New Kingdoms Canon. He has also appeared in the Children's Anuad canon, being seen serving a Mysterious Figure and fulfilling his wishes.

## Background

According to Lily, Father, much like the former, is an entity who contains half the power to defeat the gods and even nigh-omnipotence itself. This entity is also said to be Lily's biological father.

Despite this, Father treated Lily poorly from the start of the latter's childhood. The former performed hideous acts to the latter, such as torture, violation, beration, and unreasonable punishment. This is due to Lily having half the power of the powerful ability to slay gods and destroy even nigh-onmipotence.

When Lily escaped captivity, Father went increasingly furious and impatient in his destructive goal to attain his full power, and has sent agents all over Tamriel in pursuit of his own daughter.

After his crushing defeat at the hands of Horus Steelfang, Father fled to parts unknown. At some point, he collides with another Aurbis, only to meet defeat at the hands of Thalna. Again, he traversed the Rift, and eventually met Thanatos, whom he pledged his loyalty to. It is later revealed that he has lost interest in his daughter and is now focused on claiming his power back.

## Personality

Father is shown to be sadistic, cruel, cocky, and somewhat arrogant. He does not let any mere failure off his eyes and usually punishes subordinates whom fail him with death. His only interest is his unknown goal, which is unknown to all but himself.

However, this was no longer the case during his appearance in ACA. He was less cocky than before, and is more cautious in his approach. He serves Thanatos with distinction, but is unsure of his true motives.

## Powers and Abilities

Father's powers resemble that of Lily's. However, after his defeat, he has lost much of his power and has been reduced to a mere shadow of his former self. Currently, he is a Sorcerer, but his skills regarding his class currently remain unknown.

## Trivia

* Father's motives for absolute destruction alludes to Kefka Palazzo and Exdeath of the Final Fantasy series.
Hiérarchie et ses lois

.

Il faut savoir qu'au sein de notre Royaume, de nombreux titres sont utilisés, et possèdent chacun des caractéristiques leurs étant spécifiques. Ainsi, à travers ce message je vais essayer de détailler au mieux lesdites spécifités de ces titres, pour rendre les choses plus claires pour ceux qui s'interrogent !

La hiérarchie :

Le Roi/la Reine dit(e) «de sang» : Né de l'union du couple royal, il est, dans un premier temps, l'héritier présomptif au trône. Il s'agit, la plupart du temps, de l'aîné de la fratrie engendrée par le monarque régnant. Cependant, des cas particuliers peuvent avoir lieu, où le trône est donné à un autre enfant, qui succèdera dans ce cas, à son parent royal. Lorsqu'il accède au trône, on lui attribue les pleins pouvoirs, les «rênes du royaume». Il aura de ce fait le dernier mot sur toutes les décisions importantes concernant son royaume, et ce quoi qu'il arrive.

L'actuel Roi «de sang» est Sa Majesté le Roi Théodore Ier des Quatre-Roches

Le Roi/la Reine dit(e) «d'union» : D'origine princière, noble ou rôturière, ce monarque n'a, de base, aucun lien direct avec la famille royale. Il entre dans celle-ci par une union matrimoniale. On remarquera cependant qu'il ne possède pas la même panoplie de droits que le roi issu de la famille dite royale, puisqu'il n'en est pas directement issu. Il a cependant un poids énorme, si on le compare aux autres personnalités présentes à la Cour Royale, et selon la personne, est respecté aussi profondément que le roi de sang lui-même.

L'actuelle Reine «d'union» est Sa Majestée la Reine Juliette des Quatre-Roches.

Jack Hart

**Jack Hart**, AKA "**The Seer**", is an antagonist in **A Children's Anuad**.

## Biography

Jack was born in Wayrest, raised as a normal boy with little to no view about any other race. When the Great War broke out, he had developed a hatred for elves, which then evolved into a despise for any other race than human. He joined as a simple mercenery to aid in the fight against the elves, but when they had lost, he founded a secret organization to put Humanity in it's place- at the top. He is known for being extremely secretive about his motives and sources, but gives out any information he deems necessary to get what he wants.

His organization grew, and it became one of the most powerful yet unknown forces on Nirn. He hired skilled agents, which took his information and brought results back to him, giving him an almost unlimited source of knowledge. However, once he had discovered the Celestials, his interests took a strange turn. They began to corrupt his views, using a form of mind control to manipulate what he saw fit. When he thought he was doing humanity a favor, he was actually degrading it's status through the slaughter of innocents and other races. While he may have kept this up, he still continued to remain extremely smart and manipulative.

## Relationships

* Unnamed mother (deceased)

* Unnamed father (deceased)

## Events in ACA

Jack starts off inside the Ascension base, looking over the mountainside. A man then brings him news that the captain of the Emeric's Pride, Javier Schaffeur, had died in the celestial attack, his body at the bottom of the ocean. He then tells his assistant, Mariette, to retrieve the body and begin their project to reconstruct the captain for their own purposes. When she leaves, he writes a letter to Refia, informing her and her group of the Captain's reconstruction, and that they may 'retrieve' it when it's done. After releasing Javier, it was later revealed that he had placed the seeing spell on him, granting him access to whatever the Captain may be seeing at the time. Since then, he had been coordinating something extremely secret, and informed Mariette to begin the operation which had not been named.

## Trivia

* Jack's picture is of The Illusive Man from the Mass Effect series.
Maison de Gowen.

**Entourage** | • Patriarche : Erindus de Gowen (très vieux)
 **Famille** | Membres de la maison de Gowen.

Il est difficile de mentionner les **Srark** sans parler de la maison de **Gowen**. En effet, fidèles alliés depuis des siècles, ces deux maisons sont aujourd'hui plus soudées, plus proches que n'importe quelles familles **Vardiennes**. Leur alliance remonte d'ailleurs à la création même du Royaume des Quatre-Roches, et s'est maintenu grâce à quelques liens matrimoniaux organisés au cours des années. Aujourd'hui, ils sont reconnus au sein des terres comme étant la principale force militaire des lieux. Possédant une armée autant maritime que terrestre (voire aérienne grâce au Brise-Montagne), ils sont omniprésents lorsqu'il s'agit de la défense du royaume, ou encore des quelques attaques parfois organisées.

La jeune, mais déterminée, Julie de **Gowen** mène aujourd'hui d'une main de fer la maison guerrière, prenant peu à peu la place d'un patriarche très âgé. Appréciée par une grande partie de la famille royale, elle est une habituée de la Cour de Haute-Montagne, s'y montrant de temps en temps pour parler affaires avec la Reine en personne. Cependant, des rumeurs affirmeraient qu'elle aurait quelques différends avec la sœur de la Reine, la Princesse **Kaarah**, qui n'a, d'après les dires, pas réellement apprécié la façon de faire de la jeune femme, lors de son commencement.

Quoi qu'il en soit, il ne sera pas rare d'observer un de **Gowen** lors des conseils les plus importants, puisqu'ils ont un véritable poids dans les décisions diplomatiques, stratégiques et «secondaires» au sein du Royaume de **Vard**.
Maison Goldsmith

**Famille** | • Avarus d'Aragon, premier «roi» Goldsmith,
• Veredius d'Aragon, fils d'Avarus et père de Juliette, actuel «roi»,
• Catherine d'Aragon, fortement respectée par tous, sœur de Veredius,
• Juliette des Quatre-Roches, Reine du Royaume des Quatre-Roches, héritière de la couronne d'Aragon, fille unique de Veredius d'Aragon.

Autrefois discrète, la maison Goldsmith n'a jamais été la plus appréciée de toutes, souvent absente à la Cour Royale pour se réfugier dans ses terres ancestrales, à Aragon. Physiquement, ils sont généralement comme la plupart des habitants de leur île, c'est-à-dire à la peau légèrement plus foncée que leurs voisins vardiens, les yeux également d'une teinte noisette à noire (bien que certains cas particuliers existent, comme la jeune Reine Juliette qui possède des yeux clairs), ainsi que des cheveux noirs de jais, leur donnant une élégance et une certaine prestance jusque là inégalée.

La maison semble, depuis la trahison d'Avarus, en «voie de disparition», ce dernier n'ayant eu que deux enfants, Catherine et Teredius, qui eux-même n'ont donné qu'une seule héritière, fille de Teredius, Juliette. Cette dernière se place d'ailleurs inévitablement comme la prochaine dirigeante de la maison, et ce malgré son jeune âge.

Selon le traité signé lors de l'accord du mariage entre la jeune Goldsmith et l'héritier Srark, le père de Juliette s'engage à céder la monarchie aragonnaise au couple royal à sa mort, alliant de nouveau la monarchie indépendante qu'était Aragon au Royaume des Quatre-Roches. Cependant, les dernières révoltes à Aragon pourraient faire venir le jour de l'abdication du père bien plus rapidement, puisque l'unique solution qui s'offre à lui, pour sauver ses terres, est de donner une bonne fois pour toute son fief ancestral à sa douce, et jeune fille. A savoir que le père de Juliette est un homme discret, qui a durant longtemps été dans l'ombre de sa sœur ainée, Catherine, fortement appréciée pour ses actes de bravoure répétés, notamment lorsqu'elle vint en aide aux Gowen, qui depuis ce jour se sentent endettés, et justement prêt à retourner le geste autrefois très apprécié.

Il est clair que la maison en elle-même ne peut plus avoir son influence d'antan, ayant perdu un bon nombre de ses ressources lorsqu'elle s'est détachée du Royaume des Quatre-Roches. Malheureusement, cela n'a pas été de tout repos, pour qu'elle puisse se reconstruire petit à petit. Elle reste cependant loin derrière la maison souveraine Srark, mais aussi derrière les autres connues de la Cour Vardienne, comme les de Gowen.

De nombreuses personnes affirment que l'enfant que porte Juliette sera un souverain puissant, puisqu'il sera le fruit de l'union de deux monarchies autrefois détachées. Il obtiendra, de facto, à sa naissance, le titre d'héritier d'Aragon, en plus de celui d'héritier du Royaume des Quatre-Roches.
