To Secure / Risk It All

Chapter 8

Aka Curt has another panic attack.

———————————————

It was impossible. It had to be some sort of cruel prank. Because there was no way Chilly Panda was alive.

He wanted to believe she was. That despite all that happened, all evidence saying otherwise, that she had somehow escaped their clutches. Maybe she had somehow called upon her raptors. Maybe she had lived through it, and they hadn’t noticed. Maybe-

“Yeeeaaaaaaas!”

A chorus of cheers erupted throughout the room.

“We’re six now ya’ll!” Den cheered loudly, patting the monitor.

“There is SIX of us and 5 dozen of THEM.” Christian laughed.

Ivan rolled his eyes, though he couldn’t keep a straight face. “Damn, you couldn’t even stay dead?”

- Bitch. -

- 凸(⊙▂⊙✖ ) -

“They couldn’t even kill off Chilly.” Kristine pointed out with a giggle.

“Yeah why the hell did we go through all of that if you’re not even dead?” Christian joked, leaning in closer and tapping on the screen.

Ivan floated next up to him. “Bruh does that mean I died for fucking nothing?”

“Don’t forget Curt having an actual panic attack.” Den pointed over her shoulder at Curt.

At any other time, he would have joined in. Joined in with the laughter. Joined in with the jokes. But it felt like all energy had been sapped away from him, leaving him with just enough to keep standing.

She’s alright. They were still laughing and joking. She isn’t dead. They felt so far away. You didn’t fail her. Everything still felt so heavy.

Den shoved Christian aside. For whatever reason, the action snapped him out of his thoughts. Gathering whatever he still had left, he stepped closer. Kristine took a step aside to let him get closer, and he caught a glimpse of her face.

A smile on her face, but it didn’t reach her eyes.

Was it a pang of guilt? Of remorse for ever helping the Foundation? Was it longing? For being more than a replacement for a lost friend? Was it a feeling of being an outsider? For not being able to understand some of the inside jokes? Or was it a mix of many things?

Curt didn’t know and he chided himself for trying to pry. Those weren’t his feelings to figure out.

“But where are you Chilly? From where are you typing this?”

“Yeah, how the hell do we get out?” Ivan asked.

That was a bit of silence. And finally typing.

- actually… -

Curt felt immense dread in his stomach.

- I’m really dead -

The air around them felt cold. Oppressive.

“Wh-“ Ivan began, but Chilly was already typing again.

- they ran a bunch of tests on me. dunno why and I don’t remember what exactly killed me, but I died. been haunting the facility since -

Curt swallow some spit into his dry throat. “Y-you… they tested you because you’re an SCP like us. To see if you could survive i-if you’re not in a scenario…”

- well clearly not :P -

He couldn’t laugh. He knew she was trying to lighten up the atmosphere, but he couldn’t bring himself to laugh.

He wasn’t alone in that. The closest was a slight, clearly forced smile on some of them.

“So,” Ivan interrupted the silence “are you a ghost like me now?”

- nah it’s different -

- it’s like -

Stop. Backspace.

- well -

Backspace.

- I’m kinda like a more cliché ghost? I can’t talk to u guys outside of this computer, I’m pretty much invisible, I dunno -

Heavy. It felt heavy. The air felt heavy.

A hand grabbed his wrist, grabbing Curt’s attention. He glanced over. Den still had her eyes on the screen, but the hand she had wrapped around his wrist said all that needed to be said. He choose not to address it, letting her keep him grounded.

It allowed him to focus. “Wait, maybe we can fix this. If you join us, maybe you’ll go back to life after we close the scenario.”

“Could work.” Ivan noted. “But we need her body too, right?”

“Chilly, you know what happened to your body?” Den asked her.

Pause.

- not really. I was drugged the fuck up for the whole thing -

No. He refused.

“Kristine,” he turned to her, “do you have any idea where it could be?”

She shifted around a bit, eyes looking in his direction but not really meeting his eyes. “No, I wasn’t allowed near the research stations…”

- curt, arent YOU the b-class? shouldn’t YOU know? -

“Do you think I would ask if I knew!?” He snapped at her, then leaned forward to type at another computer. “Come on, there’s gotta be a way to figure it out…”

The screens flicked from camera to camera, each adding to the growing pit of dread in Curt’s stomach. Every camera he checked, there were armed guards. There had to be something. Anything. They wouldn’t—

“Curt,” Den’s voice called out to him “they probably got rid of her body. I don’t wanna be a downer but—“

“They wouldn’t.” He cut her off. “Her body would be too valuable for that. T-They’d research it…”

“But that’s against the safety rules!” Kristine argued.

“Well clearly Snee doesn’t care about any damn rules!”

Come on, come on! It couldn’t be gone, it should still be there somewhere! He could still fix this, he could-

Christian grabbed his arm. “Dude, stop for a sec.”

Curt pulled his arm back.

“Oi, don’t fucking ignore me.” Christian said, grabbing Curt’s shoulder and forcefully turning him away from the computer. “Listen to me. I know you want to help Chilly, we all do! But we can’t help anyone if we get recaptured. We have to get the hell out!”

“AND LEAVE HER BEHIND!?” Curt roared at him.

Christian flinched from the sudden loud yell, and Curt took the chance to pull his arm away from his grasp. He glared at all of them.

“If we don’t get her out now we may never get that chance again! What the hell is wrong with you guys, am I the only one who fucking cares about her!?”

“Do you?” Christian snapped at him. “Or are you just trying to fix your ‘mistakes’ so you can stop feeling guilty?”

The silence was deafening. A knife wouldn’t be enough to cut through the tension. Everyone’s eyes were on Curt.

He wanted to reply. Make some snapping remark that of course he was doing this for Chilly. That of course he wasn’t doing this for some stupid sense of guilt. For making up to the fact it was his—

But the nasty part within him muted him before he could speak.

He has a point, doesn’t he?

So instead, he turned back to the computer. “…Both. And does it matter, the end result is still the sa—YEOUCH!”

An electric shock went through his hand, not strong enough to numb his arm, but still enough to sting. He shook out his hand. And then he saw Chilly typing.

- curt, leave it. it’s ok -

“Wha- No, its not ok!”

- no really. because, actually… -

There was a long pause.

- I’ve been thinking of taking a break from the group anyways -

He couldn’t breathe.

“Chilly…” Den whispered softly.

- it’s not because of you guys! I dunno how to best explain it, but it’s like, wanting to rediscover myself??? do some soulsearching??? trying to fuck around on my own and seeing what happens? if that makes sense??? -

Ivan raised an eyebrow. “You sure it’s not because of all the bullying?”

The computer vibrated with laughter.

- LMAOOOOO U COULDNT BULLY ME OUT IF YUO TRIED ಥ‿ಥ -

Den grinned and tried to nudge Ivan’s ghostly form. “We’d bully you out first.”

- absolutely (๑´• .̫ •ू`๑) -

- but fr don’t worry about me. ( ͒꒪̛ཅ꒪̛ ͒) if anything I can now go literally fucking anywhere I want and if I wanna be alive again we’ll just infiltrate this bitch -(๑☆‿ ☆#)ᕗ -

Den’s eyes sparkled. “Dude you can haunt a Starbucks.”

- KSNDBKSBSVKSJDBS SCRATCH ALL PLANS IM DOING THAT ⊹⋛⋋( ՞ਊ ՞)⋌⋚⊹ -

As Den, Ivan and Chilly laughed and teased, Curt felt like he was slipping. Everything felt like it was fading away. Their voices felt like they were melting together. The room felt like it was tilting.

No, no, no, he couldn’t fall into another attack now! They were on borrow time, at any moment the guards could barge in and—

But he was losing control. He was losing control. He was losing control. Losing control. Losing control. Control. Control. Control control control control control control control “Hey.” control control control control control control control control control control control control “hey!”

Christian moved into his vision. “Do you need to sit down for a moment?”

Curt stopped, his breath still uneven. His eyes flickered towards the others. They were still talking, but he caught the occasional glances they snuck at him. He stumbled back a little, getting some distance from the situation.

Almost without a single sound, Christian joined him, gently helping him breathe through it. Bit by bit, he pushed down the fear and panic once more.

He was definitely gonna throw up once they got out. If.

No. He steadied himself. We are going to get out. We will get out… or die trying.

And with a last deep breath, he locked eyes with Christian. The question went unspoken, but so did the answer. He stepped forward, interrupting the conversation between the others.

“It won’t be long before Snee finds us. We need a plan, stat.”

Ivan bit his lip. “We can’t get out through any of the exits. Maybe we could try a window.”

“We’d first need to get out of the panic room though.” Den pointed out. “Chilly, are there any guards heading in our direction?”

The computer was still for a moment.

- yeah, there’s a few getting close. doubt y’all are getting out without a fight -

Den crackled her knuckles upon hearing that, but Curt cut her off. “There is no way we can barge through so many. It’s too dangerous.”

“Do we have a choice though?” Ivan questioned.

“Wait, wait, wait!” Kristine suddenly shouted, raising her hand in the air like a desperate student. “If we can pretty much create whatever we want, why don’t we just make a teleporter?”

There was a silence of more than 10 seconds as everyone gaped at her.

Curt sunk to his knees, covering his face with his hands. “OH MY GOOOOOOOD!”

Everyone around him descended into hysterical laughter, Den and Christian even throwing in a “looooser!”, and even Chilly displaying a large L on the screen.

“WHY DIDNT I THINK OF THAT WHYYYYYYYYYY!”

“Ok, ok, I am holding this one against you dude.” Christian laughed.

Curt sighed deeply. “I am so fucking done y’all.

The laughter finally faded enough for Curt to stand up, sigh, and look at Kristine.

“Alright Kristine, how do you wanna do this?”

She thought, but only for a split second. “Can our teleporter be a 2004 Toyota Accord Sedan?”

It immediately prompted another round of giggles and chuckled, and even Curt felt the corners of his mouth move. “Sure, sure. Everyone, stand back a bit.”

Once everyone had made room, Curt spoke: “Alright, so Kristine summons her trusty teleporting 2004 Toyota Sedan…”

The car popped into existence, pushing all of them back even further.

“Shotgun!” Den immediately yelled, followed by Christian pouting over it. Kristine cheered and made her way over to the driver’s seat.

Curt was about to join, but then paused. No. He had to say it. He turned to Chilly instead.

“Chilly,” he began, his heart feeling as heavy as lead “I know I’m not directly responsible for what happened to you. But maybe if I had stepped up sooner, figured it out sooner, then maybe we could have escaped before your death. I’m…” his voice cracked “I’m sorry. I’m sorry I didn’t prevent this.”

There was a break in the storm of laughter. All eyes were focused on him and Chilly. Waiting for what she’d say.

And she finally typed.

- BITCH DO YOU NOT THINK I WOULDNT FUCKING HAUNT YOUR ASS IF I BLAMED YOU EVEN A LITTLE???? -

“Wh-“

- CURT FFS HOW LONG HAVE WE KNOWN EACH OTHER??? HOW LONG HAVE WE BEEN BULLYING EACH OTHER??? DO U SERIOUSLY NOT THINK I WOULDNT TAKE THIS EXCUSE???? -

“I…I…” he stuttered.

- curt, I don’t blame u for shit so stop being such a sad sack about it -

She didn’t blame him. She wasn’t mad. She could’ve been. She should have been.

But she wasn’t.

- not even I’m blaming you so stop blaming urself already dumbass -

“Chilly…”

He took a deep breath… and smiled. “Thank you.”

Curt suddenly felt something warm against his chest, wrapping itself around him. And even though he knew how stupid he’d look, he hugged back.

It was gone before he knew it, but Christian next to him shifted, grinning ear to ear as held up one crooked arm, akin to how he would sling his arm around his neck. “Girl I better hear on the news how you haunted the White House.”

“You gotta get on an episode of Ghost Hunters.” Den laughed, and then grinned as Chilly’s spirit hugged her next.

When she moved on to Ivan, Curt could finally get a glimpse of her.

She was happy.

Ivan ruffled her head, or at least that’s what he intended, complaining how he was gonna get the full buttmonkey treatment. “Now I don’t got you to divert some of it, they’re all gonna focus on me now.”

And finally, Kristine held up her hand, only a little awkwardly. From the way she beamed, Chilly gave her the high five.

“I’ll bully them in your place.” She proudly vowed.

There was a quick moment of warmth again as she quickly phased through all of them…

And she was gone.

Curt exhaled slowly. And jumped as a loud BANG sounded from the door.

“Ok we gotta get the fuck outta here.”

“Kristine take the wheel!” Den yelled as she jumped into the passenger’s seat, Christian still complaining as he got into the back.

Kristine got into the driver’s seat with a laugh, and Curt went to sit right behind her. Ivan of course couldn’t actually enter the car, but he hang onto the roof anyways.

The door broke down just as Kristine started the car. Curt flipped them off. And a second later, the car and all those inside vanished from the room, and from the facility.

——————————————————-

I was gonna end the chapter somewhere else originally, but I’ve tortured you guys with my absences enough.

Wil edit properly once I got time.

Emerald Ash Borer - Roswell Pest Threat

Keep an Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) infestation from decimating the ash trees in your yard and neighborhood. Recognizing infestation signs and knowing who to call can save countless trees in the Georgia landscape.

New Image Tree Solutions gathered Emerald Ash Borer beetle information, the threat to trees, infestation signs, prevention measures, and who to call when there is a confirmed infestation.

What is Emerald Ash Borer?

Emerald Ash Borer (Agrilus planipennis) is a small, metallic-green beetle that may appear harmless at first glance. However, its larvae tunnel under tree bark, disrupting nutrient and water flow within the tree. This internal damage eventually leads to tree decline and death. The beetle is particularly lethal because its feeding habits are challenging to detect until significant damage has occurred.

The Threat to Ash Trees

EAB poses a severe threat (to ash trees) due to its rapid spread and destructive lifecycle. In less than a decade, millions of ash trees have been killed across North America. In Roswell, Georgia, this pest jeopardizes the health and beauty of local landscapes. EAB attacks all ash species, stripping trees of vitality and leaving behind skeletonized trunks.

Note: Ash tree species are inherently more susceptible to boring insects due to a lack of tannins in the tree’s sap (sap is the tree’s defense against intruders and tannins make tree sap undesirable to boring insects).

Why EAB is So Deadly

EAB larvae feed extensively on the inner bark, disrupting the vascular system essential for tree survival. When visible symptoms appear - like canopy thinning, bark splitting, and wood peeking through - the damage is extensive and irreversible. The beetle’s lifecycle allows multiple generations annually in warmer climates, accelerating the infestation process. This rapid reproduction and feeding pattern make EAB one of the most destructive pests targeting ash trees.

Ash Tree Species in Roswell, Georgia

In Roswell, several ash species are common. Five notable species include:

Green Ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica)

White Ash (Fraxinus americana)

Black Ash (Fraxinus nigra)

Blue Ash (Fraxinus quadrangulata)

Manchurian Ash (Fraxinus mandshurica)

Each species plays a role in local ecosystems, providing shade, habitat, and aesthetic value.

Preventive Measures Against EAB

Preventing EAB infestation requires proactive steps and continuous monitoring. Homeowners and municipalities should consider the following measures:

Regular Inspections: Schedule frequent visual inspections during spring and summer. Look for D-shaped exit holes, serpentine galleries under bark, and canopy thinning.

Chemical Treatments: Apply systemic insecticides in early spring when EAB activity begins. Consult with certified arborists to determine proper treatment intervals.

Biological Controls: Explore releasing parasitic wasps that target EAB larvae. Research on these natural enemies continues, and some programs already show promising results.

Quarantine Regulations: Follow local guidelines restricting firewood movement and other wood materials that could harbor EAB larvae.

When to Call an Arborist

Professional arborists should be contacted immediately if an EAB infestation is suspected. Signs include:

D-shaped exit holes in bark

Rapid decline in canopy density

Excessive wood peeking through bark layers

Visible larval galleries during bark inspection

Arborists can confirm diagnosis, suggest treatments, and recommend containment measures. Early intervention may save some trees, but heavily infested ones may require removal to prevent spread.

EAB Infested Trees - Removal and Destruction

When a tree becomes too heavily infested (or poses a risk to surrounding structures), tree removal is necessary. The process involves:

Assessment: Arborists conduct thorough assessments to determine the tree's condition.

Permitting: Obtain necessary permits from local authorities before removal.

Safe Removal: Employ specialized equipment to safely remove the tree, minimizing risks to property and public safety.

Destruction: Infested wood should be chipped or incinerated (following local regulations) to prevent re-infestation. Proper disposal is critical to contain EAB spread.

EAB-Resistant Tree Species

As EAB continues to devastate ash populations, replacing vulnerable trees with resistant species is a strategic long-term solution. Five recommended alternatives include:

Bald Cypress (Taxodium distichum)

Southern Live Oak (Quercus virginiana)

Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba)

Red Maple (Acer rubrum)

Tulip Poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera)

These species not only bring diversity but also enhance the resilience of urban forests against invasive pests.

Documentation and Reporting

When EAB outbreaks occur, comprehensive documentation is essential. Arborists and municipal agencies compile detailed reports that include:

Visual evidence through photographs and videos

Data on tree health and infestation levels

Treatment and removal recommendations

Impact assessments on urban green space

These reports support decision-making by community leaders and help coordinate regional response strategies.

Contacting Relevant Organizations

In the event of an EAB detection, it is crucial to notify the following organizations to coordinate a swift response:

New Image Tree Solutions: Will dispatch an arborist to identify EAB, offer immediate containment solutions, and begin documentation. Call today for a free assessment: 404-680-0041

Local Cooperative Extension: Provides expert guidance on pest management. Fulton County UGA Extension Office Phone: 404-613-7670

State Forestry Division: Oversees invasive species control and urban forest health. Georgia Forestry Commission Phone: 800-436-7442

U.S. Department of Agriculture: Offers resources and support for large-scale infestations. National Identification Services Team Phone: 301-851-2182

Emerald Ash Borer Network: Offers a direct way to report EAB infestations with local connections to entities specialized in EAB containment.

Georgia Center for Invasive Species and Ecosystem Health Email: [email protected]

Early notification and collaboration with these agencies can lead to more effective containment and treatment efforts.

Emerald Ash Borer Infestation and Containment

In this article, you discovered Emerald Ash Borer information, the threat to trees, infestation signs, prevention measures, and who to call when there is an infestation.

Immediate action after detecting an EAB infestation can save your community's ash trees from certain death.

Failure to act against the Emerald Ash Borer leaves every ash tree in the Roswell, Georgia, region susceptible to its rapid spread and lethal feeding habits, resulting in extensive tree loss.

Out of the Frying pan… AND into the Icebox... Escape Plan!

[ Original Post ]

Feeling Joan start to sob next to her broke Pyrrha out of her own worries about fans or even the looming threat of the Schnee women shattering Joan's innocence. For Joan, Pyrrha would move heaven and earth... no she would walk through the fiery gates of hell... no she would walk naked through Forever Fall covered in red sap!

Pyrrha: (Whispering) Joan, sweetie I need you to be brave, okay. I'm going to get us out of this. Can you do that for me?

Joan: (Whispering/Sobbing) Okay. How?

Pyrrha: (Whispering) I'm going to stop the car with my semblance and then take that little bitch hostage. It's going to be scary, but I need you to be brave.

Joan nods, and sniffles, which makes Pyrrha give Joan a light squeeze, before turning her full attention on the white haired teen seated across from her, and Joan.

Pyrrha: Whitley was it?

Whitley: Please don't. I heard you. You do understand I'm like two feet away, and you really did whisper that well.

Pyrrha: Well if you know what I'm planning to do then you know I am capable of doing it!

Whitley: Just please don't. Enjoy the car ride. I can promise you, you'll have other chances to escape.

Pyrrha: Huh?

Whitley: What you thought this was the end of it? Yes I tricked you into the car, and yes I'm trying to civilly not have an altercation, but we still have to move you from the car to the air-shuttle. There's a chance right there... which I would like to say wouldn't wreck a perfectly good vehicle, or endanger civilians needlessly.

Pyrrha: (Blinks)

Whitley: If you choose to ignore that possibility , there is also the NEED to wait on my mother, Winter and Weiss to show up. That's a great opportunity, getting away while people are tired and bored.

Pyrrha: (Blinks)

Whitley: There is also the flight back to Atlas. You and Ms Arc are Huntresses-in-training... which means you can easily leap out and use a landing strategy at the beginning of the flight.

Pyrrha: (Blinks)

Whitley: The jumping out of the air-shuttle is the most dramatic, but it would be the last real chance to escape. Once we're at cruising altitude, or reach Atlas... chances are pretty slim there.

Pyrrha: (Blinks)

Joan: (Sniffles) Which point would you recommend?

Whitley: I would suggest when we reach the airport and have to move you from the car to the air-shuttle.

Joan: (Sniffles) I can see it. Limited personnel large open area monitored and viewed area... access to the airport terminal to facilitate vanishing into the crowd.

Pyrrha: (Blinks)

Whitley: Exactly, and to be honest it would be the most safe and civil location. No civilians that could be caught in an accident if this car was to suddenly stop in the middle of the street.

Joan: (Sniffles) And we wouldn't risk others by jumping out into oncoming traffic.

Pyrrha: (Blinks)

Whitley: Exactly. Would you like a tissue? (Offers a box of tissues to Joan)

Joan: (Takes one) Thank you.

Whitley: You're welcome. We should be only another twenty minutes until we reach the airport... would either of you like some water? Maybe some fruit juice?

Joan: I'll have...

Pyrrha: He's a Schnee! He's the enemy Joan! (Lunges for Whitley) Where getting out of here now... URK!

Pyrrha, collapses to floor of the car twitching. As Whitley turns off his taser.

Joan: Pyrrha!

Whitley: I did politely ask her not to. (Sighs) Well this complicates things. Do you think you would by chance be able to carry her during your escape attempt?

Joan: I could try? How long will she be out?

Whitley: Ten minutes, give or take... though when she wakes up she will have some trouble coordinating her limbs.

Joan: Umm... just a thought do you think there might possibly be a forgotten luggage cart near where we will be transferred from the car to the air-shuttle?

Whitley: It's possible. What are you thinking, putting her into a cart and making a dash for the main terminal?

Joan: Considering it.

Whitley: It has it's merits.

Joan: As long as I don't get one with a wonky wheel... but I always get the one with the wonky wheel.

Whitley: Yes that could be a complication. Would you like more time to consider your options? I can ask Klein to take a detour... you know how unreliable traffic reports are.

Joan: That would be lovely. Thank you. May I still have a water?

Whitley: Certainly.

(Sorry... I just couldn't resist Whitley being overly civil and openly discussing escape options with Pyrrha and Joan... and YES Pyrrha could have easily stopped the car and used it to open a can-o-whoop-ass on Whitley and Klein... I think is a little more entertaining/ridiculous.)

Soul Like Clay

"Hey Boss, if you need someone to act as tribute to your research, I would happily accept the position."

"…Doris. You are aware there is a high chance of your life being forfeit, correct? You cannot just throw your life away carelessly."

"My life was taken from me the day my village burned to the ground in that raid. Your people saved my life. You saved my life. So if my life can help you save others, then I am more than willing to take the risk. Are you willing to do so as well?"

That day played on repeat as Narinder stayed by her bedside. Doris slept peacefully, her chest rising and falling slowly in a soothing rhythm. Her fur was just recently brushed. Pep had insisted on maintaining it. (He chuckled to himself. The nickname Doris gave them seemed to have stuck.) And admittedly, it was nice to see it more kept for the first time in a while. He could only remember it being windblown and covered in dirt and sap from working day in and day out. It felt strange seeing her smoothed out. Very "un-Doris-like", as the fox would say when doing something new. Or something she doesn't normally do.

Like sleeping for three days straight. Very "un-Doris-like" indeed.

As Narinder waited for her to wake up, he looked at the bundle in his arms. A small Fennec fox that looked exactly like a miniature of his follower. The little one stared at Doris, ears twitching as she reached out to her bigger half.

The experiment was to see if life could be created from splitting life in half. He was used to handling souls. Carrying them, caring for them, ensuring they passed on. Destroying them when applicable. (A situation that seemed more frequent after Shamura's latest plots to aid Anchordeep's expansion). As he prepared for the experiments, he'd ensured to take note of every part of the process, having Pep document it for him before beginning to handle Doris's soul.

If you were to ask the Bishop of Death what a soul feels like, Narinder would describe it as delicate. Though the word did not do sensation justice. No word existed to truly encapsulate the sensation. More accurately, were he to try to explain, it was somewhat eclectic. Fog given solidity, but easy to shatter at the smallest movement. Occasionally, they were stronger. Like clay before embracing the flame. Strong. But still soft. Moldable. Other times they were glass that could crack at the slightest change in temperature. The most distinguished sensation a soul had ever felt in his hands was that of ice. Melting to the slightest touch. Those souls tended to vanish before he could properly prepare them for rest, melting into the ether and never met again.

Doris had a soul like clay. Soft, but sturdy. Perfect for cutting away a piece and molding it into a new body. Placing the soul into a specially woven egg made of silk from the cradle, he monitored its growth, while also tending to Doris. It had been a difficult two weeks. Balancing the care between them while also tending to his other duties was difficult. He had no idea what he'd have done had Marrock and Chezarae not stepped in to run the camp, and Pep taking over more administrative work.

But now, here he sat. The fruits of their labors resulting in a new life.

Baby Doris, as Big Doris insisted the child be named, stared at her progenitor carefully. "She still hasn't woken up?"

Narinder sighed. "No, Babdo. But she will."

"How do you know?"

"I just do."

Babdo (he refused to call the child "Baby Doris" personally), was his first success in creating life. And within days of hatching, was already learning basic arithmetic. However, he could sense something was off about their form. He would need to consult Kallamar, but Narinder was convinced the child would never grow past the crawling stage of infancy. He resisted the urge to pity her for it, however. Within two days of hatching, she'd already learned enough words to ask for food, learn the names of those caring for her, and even pointing out issues with the nursery that needed to be repaired before the next egg hatched.

A success was a success, and this gave him a good starting point for the next project.

As he began to think over how to proceed, Babdo pat his arm and pointed to Doris. "Try putting me beside her. Perhaps having me next to her will help her wake up."

"Why would you think that?" he asked.

Babdo simply shrugged. "I overheard Harrow mention something from his old village. Someone in long slumber woke up not long after his wife touched his hand. Couldn't hurt to try, right?"

Narinder nodded slowly. "Very well."

Carefully, he placed the child on top of Doris, carefully adjusting so the little one was being held by her arms. Babdo gently gripped onto what little fur stuck out from Doris's robes, nuzzling into the embrace and humming a little lullaby.

"Where are you now hiding? My sweet little child. Listen as I'm singing. Why do you tremble in fear? My sweet little child. I am here."

He couldn't help but smile. He knew the tune, but he hadn't heard it personally in ages. Last he heard someone sing it, he'd been very young himself. Newly crowned. Lost. Alone. He could remember the soothing cool hands of his older siblings as he rested, fever burning through his fur.

A purr rolled through his throat, and he found himself carrying on.

"Sleep and rest young one, you're safe and free. Mother Light hunts by the sea. And as you dream I'll hold you near. There is nothing left to fear."

There was a twitch. Small, though impossible to miss. Both Narinder and Babdo turned to Doris, watching her closely.

First, her nose twitched.

Then she swallowed.

And slowly, tiredly, eyes fluttered open.

"Mhmh…thirsty," Doris mumbled, before finally looking around. Her eyes met the Bishop's, and she smiled that same lazy grin he'd come to know. "Hey Boss."

Babdo giggled, nuzzling in closer as Doris turned her attention to her little miracle. Narinder felt his shoulders slump. Stress he didn't realize he'd been holding back vanished in an instant.

"Welcome back, Doris."

Navigating the Future of GRC and Access Governance in SAP Ecosystems

A New Era of Security and Access Governance

Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) and Access Governance are undergoing major changes due to digital growth and stricter regulations. As organizations connect more data and systems, they’re shifting from isolated security practices to proactive, integrated compliance processes. Raghu Boddu, founder of ToggleNow and a seasoned leader in SAP GRC, has observed these shifts closely.

“Fifteen years ago, most companies didn’t treat security as a separate function—it was part of Basis administration,” Raghu explains. “Today, security is essential, and organizations know it’s crucial for protecting data, compliance, and brand reputation.”

New Market Realities and Demand for Integrated GRC Solutions

SAP has long been at the forefront of GRC, offering tools to help both finance and IT teams tackle compliance challenges. Solutions like SAP Access Control and Identity Access Governance (IAG) provide the flexibility to manage today’s security needs while adapting to future ones. As businesses adopt hybrid and multi-cloud systems, managing security across different platforms has become more complex. This is where SAP’s Business Technology Platform (BTP) shines. BTP connects SAP and non-SAP applications seamlessly, creating a secure, compliant ecosystem. “BTP and SAP Identity Services have changed the game for multi-cloud environments,” says Raghu. “Today, integration is nearly seamless thanks to SAP’s open APIs and connectors. This has allowed companies to manage security across hybrid systems without needing extensive customization.”

Regional Insights: GRC Maturity and Market Growth

The GRC and Identity Access Management (IAM) markets vary widely across regions, shaped by local regulations and market maturity. In the U.S., SoX compliance has driven strict GRC standards for years. Many American companies have developed sophisticated GRC processes, particularly around data security and financial compliance. Meanwhile, regions like India are rapidly catching up.

“The growth potential in India is huge,” Raghu shares. “Over the last five years, Indian businesses have started treating GRC as essential, not optional.”

In both the U.S. and other markets, companies are increasingly adopting automation and hybrid identity solutions to handle complex regulations. This shift reflects a global move toward integrated compliance, with GRC becoming a core business priority rather than a “tick-the-box” function. As Raghu adds, “It’s inspiring to see GRC prioritized as part of strategy, not just an audit requirement.”

The Future of GRC: AI-Driven Compliance and Embedded Solutions

a) AI and Automation in GRC

Automation and AI are quickly transforming GRC from a reactive function into a proactive one, identifying risks before they become problems. With AI-driven GRC, systems can automatically analyze data to help companies detect potential compliance issues and manage risk more intelligently. SAP’s GRC tools with AI simplify compliance processes and improve decision-making, allowing teams to focus on strategic priorities.

Raghu highlights the potential of AI in GRC: “AI has incredible potential in the GRC space. It’s about giving businesses more power to manage risk with accuracy, while reducing manual efforts and errors.”

b) Embedding Compliance into Daily Processes

Looking forward, GRC will be embedded directly within applications and workflows, constantly monitoring for risks and responding to threats as they arise. Raghu envisions this future: “In the next five years, GRC as a standalone system may fade. Instead, it will be part of daily workflows, where applications flag risks and suggest controls in real time. AI will automate many compliance tasks, cutting down manual efforts.”

He adds, “Imagine GRC as a tool that proactively flags a potential access issue based on historical patterns—like a security recommendation engine. This proactive risk management approach is where AI will make the most impact.”

About Raghu Boddu and ToggleNow: Innovating in GRC and SAP Integration

Raghu Boddu, founder of ToggleNow, has over two decades of experience in SAP GRC and has witnessed the industry’s evolution firsthand. He started ToggleNow to address complex GRC challenges, helping companies make compliance efficient and accessible. With solutions that streamline risk management and improve security, ToggleNow has become a trusted partner for organizations operating in SAP environments.

Raghu is also a published author, with books such as SAP Access Control 12.0 Comprehensive Guide, SAP Process Control 12.0 Comprehensive Guide, and SAP Cloud IAG eBite. The books offer practical insights into implementing SAP GRC solutions effectively. His books emphasize not only the technical aspects but also strategic best practices, making them valuable resources for GRC professionals.

ToggleNow has been particularly impactful in areas like SAP integration and GRC automation, where Raghu’s team develops innovative tools that simplify complex processes. “At ToggleNow, our focus is to help clients build a compliant, adaptable GRC framework that meets today’s demands while preparing for tomorrow’s,” says Raghu.

Conclusion: Building a Future-Ready GRC Strategy

For companies looking ahead, the time to adapt is now. As GRC evolves, adopting flexible, AI-driven, and integrated solutions is key. Businesses should prepare for a future where compliance is embedded in every workflow and AI-driven insights make risk management smarter.

“The future of GRC is all about integration, intelligence, and ease,” Raghu emphasizes. “Companies investing in these areas today will be well-prepared to navigate tomorrow’s challenges.”

In an increasingly interconnected world, the ability to proactively manage risk and compliance is more than a regulatory need—it’s a strategic advantage. By embracing AI, automation, and integration, companies can transform GRC from a support function to a driver of resilience and growth.

The Backbone of Enterprise IT: Understanding the Value of SAP Basis Support

In today’s digitally driven enterprises, seamless business operations rely heavily on stable, secure, and well-managed IT systems. Among the many foundational elements that support enterprise resource planning (ERP) platforms like SAP, SAP Basis support plays a critical role in ensuring system reliability and performance. Acting as the bridge between the application layer and the operating system, SAP Basis is essentially the backbone of any SAP environment.

SAP Basis administrators are responsible for a wide range of tasks—from installation and configuration to monitoring, troubleshooting, and performance tuning. Without effective Basis support, even the most advanced SAP solutions can experience downtime, security risks, and performance bottlenecks. That’s why businesses across various industries are investing in expert SAP Basis services to maintain operational continuity and safeguard enterprise data.

One of the most strategic areas where SAP Basis proves its importance is SAP BTP Role Management. The SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) enables organizations to integrate, extend, and innovate SAP applications with agility. However, to leverage its full potential, it’s essential to have precise control over user roles and access privileges. SAP Basis teams often take the lead in configuring these roles, ensuring that users have access only to the resources they need—nothing more, nothing less.

When role management is handled effectively within SAP BTP, enterprises benefit from enhanced security, reduced compliance risks, and improved operational efficiency. Mismanagement, on the other hand, can open the door to unauthorized access, data leaks, and potential system compromise. That’s why aligning SAP Basis support with BTP access control policies is no longer optional—it’s a strategic imperative.

Beyond just role configuration, SAP Basis professionals also support patch updates, system upgrades, data backups, and performance analysis. Their role is proactive rather than reactive, constantly fine-tuning the system to prevent issues before they arise. This not only boosts user productivity but also enhances the overall lifecycle management of SAP systems.

Enterprises seeking to modernize their SAP infrastructure—especially those migrating to SAP S/4HANA or adopting SAP BTP—should prioritize strong SAP Basis support. Whether you are running critical financial systems or customer-facing applications, ensuring optimal backend performance is non-negotiable.

To dive deeper into the role and importance of SAP Basis support in an enterprise, check out this detailed guide: 👉 SAP Basis Support Service: Role and Importance in an Enterprise

In summary, SAP Basis isn’t just a technical function—it’s a strategic business enabler. From maintaining system integrity to supporting advanced SAP BTP Role Management, a strong Basis foundation ensures that enterprise IT runs smoothly, securely, and efficiently.
