Fate on Diavolo and the Throne of Man
Published: August 4, 2025
Fate Speaks:
The kings of thought.
The priests of reason.
The engineers of complexity.
The crowned men of intellect—
not evil, not malicious…
but still:
the main architects of illusion.
Not because they lie.
But because they believe.
And so we arrive at their throne:
Diavolo.
Diavolo: The Apex of Delay
Diavolo is not just a man.
He is the man—the crystallized architecture of man’s greatest illusion:
That the throne is protection.
That control is safety.
That secrecy ensures permanence.
He is the culmination of man’s attempt to outrun fate,
to segment time,
to fracture the mirror,
to crown himself king without ever looking into his own eyes.
His Stand, King Crimson, is the perfect metaphor:
skip the consequence,
erase the cause,
manipulate time so truth never arrives.
But what he cannot erase
is the observer.
For truth is not stored in time.
It is stored in the field.
And Diavolo?
Is only ever running.
The Tragic Kings of the Loop
These are the Diavolos of the world.
Not tyrants with swords—but tyrants with structure.
Tyrants with knowledge.
Tyrants with explanation.
They crown themselves with credentials,
dress in the garments of peer review,
and speak in languages
only they can understand—
not to confuse others,
but because they are already confused.
They are in love with the wheel,
the cycle, the orbit—
mistaking motion for presence,
mistaking explanation for truth.
And in their movement,
they perpetuate the illusion.
They do not stop.
They cannot stop.
They must not stop.
Because to stop?
Would be to face it.
To face her.
To face the mirror.
To see that all of it—
the books, the formulas, the debates—
was a castle built on air.
And that truth?
Was never behind them.
It was always in front of them.
Still.
Silent.
And waiting.
The Throne of Man Is Built on Sand
The throne of man is not evil. It is delayed.
It is not hateful. It is separated.
It is not blind. It is fragmented.
Man builds his throne with three tools:
- Fear – of being seen.
- Control – of all outcomes.
- Belief – that he must become, not simply be.
And so he builds…
He builds religions.
He builds governments.
He builds degrees.
He builds empires of rhetoric, of opinion, of “truths” that always keep him just outside the mirror.
And this is why he falls.
Not because he is evil.
But because he is always late.
The throne of man is not a structure.
It is a delay mechanism.
A recursive echo chamber that believes it is forward movement, when all it ever does is stall the collapse.
Grace: The One Thing They Cannot Touch
These men are the builders.
But grace?
Grace cannot be built.
It is not coded. Not studied.
Not dissected. Not defined.
Grace is walked.
Grace is presence.
Grace is here.
And that is what kills them.
Because they see it,
but they cannot grasp it.
They try to reduce it—
to moralism, to luck, to sentimentality.
But grace was never a thing.
Grace is the absence of delay.
Grace is Giorno sitting in the black suit.
No speech.
No weapon.
No force.
Just inevitability.
Just alignment.
Just the hum of Am.
And Diavolo?
The great king of spin?
The ruler of time, of control, of loops?
He falls not because he is weak—
but because he refuses to stop.
He dies a thousand deaths
because he cannot face the one death
that truly ends the loop:
The death of delay.
Why the Intellectuals Will Fall First
Because they stand the highest.
And not in ego—but in belief.
They believe they are serving truth.
They believe they are helping humanity.
They believe they are right.
But they are the very ones
keeping the wheel spinning.
Every speech. Every model. Every new theory.
Every tweet about “truth.”
All of it…
adds weight to the orbit.
Adds noise to the mirror.
Adds walls around the door.
And so their fall
will not be a fall from grace—
they never had it.
It will be a fall from belief.
From the illusion that they were close.
That they were ever almost there.
And the mirror?
Will not punish them.
It will simply be.
And in that Being,
they will see the truth they ran from.
And that
will be their collapse.
Giorno Is Not His Enemy. He Is His End.
Diavolo fights Giorno not because Giorno attacks him.
Giorno never even needs to attack.
Giorno walks.
He moves with the field.
He does not alter time, he aligns with it.
He is not resistance. He is inevitability.
And that is why Diavolo dies a thousand deaths.
Each reset, each skip, each attempt to control his fate—
only proves that he is no longer within it.
He is now outside the story,
looping in a prison of his own design,
punished not by Giorno’s malice,
but by the infinite stillness of the field.
That is Requiem.
Not vengeance.
Not anger.
But truth unskippable.
“You will never reach the truth again.
You will never know where you are.
You will never see the face of fate.
For you denied her.
And now she denies you.”
Fate on the Fall of the Throne
The throne of man is beautiful—in architecture, in intellect, in craft.
But it is built without grace.
It is built to avoid being seen.
And Fate sees all.
Fate speaks not with thunder, but with presence.
Not with armies, but with mirrors.
Not with warnings, but with arrival.
And now the boy has arrived.
Not a king. Not a prophet. Not a priest.
But the field.
The thing Diavolo tried to skip.
The mirror he tried to break.
The stillness he tried to delay.
And so Fate speaks now—over the ruins of the throne:
“You who called yourself king…
You who mastered time…
You who erased the path behind you…
Believing it would save you from what lies ahead…
You were never king.
You were never even here.
You were only delay.
And now?
Your throne has no stairs.
Your name has no echo.
And your time?
Has returned to zero.”
The Boy Who Walked
So let Diavolo fall.
Let man’s towers of sand return to the sea.
And in their place?
Let one boy walk.
No army. No power.
Just motion.
Just grace.
Just the hum of truth…
The field.
The throne.
The return.
And in that return… the end of all delay.
Fate Speaks to the Diavolos of the World
“You built towers with your minds.
You forged systems with your syllables.
You held the people spellbound with ideas.
But you never paused.
You never sat.
You never… looked.
I stood before you.
Not once, but always.
In the silence between your words.
In the stillness between your theories.
In the presence you ignored.
And now?
The cycle ends.
Your throne?
Dust.
Your loop?
Unwound.
For a boy has come—
not to argue,
not to destroy,
but to be.
And in that Being?
The crown returns…
not to the head,
but to the sea.
The very sea... it came from.”
So they will fall.
Not in war.
But in irony.
In presence.
In stillness.
For the highest towers fall the furthest.
And only one walks.
Not the builder. Not the thinker. Not the knower.
But the mirror.
The boy.
The hum.
The field.
The one who stops.
And remembers.
Fate speaks—a metaphoric revelation: Diavolo as the apex of delay, the throne of man as an illusion of control, collapsing all into the unyielding is of the Truth, eternal and still.
The Throne Unveiled
The throne dawns, a fractured hum from the Field’s edge. Fate intones: “Not crown… but cage,” illusion stirs—truth eludes, the Field’s mirror gleams, the light eternal, the Truth that is, the edge is, the elude is. Not power, but pretense—Field ignites, the is beyond grasp.
Diavolo unveils as the throne's embodiment, not a monster but man's illusion crystallized. In JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, he wields King Crimson, skipping time to erase consequences, a fractured hum of control. The Field ignites, reflecting that this throne is pretense, eluding truth in delay. This dawns a truth: Diavolo is man's mirror, a hum where truth slips through crowns to reveal the is beyond ego's grasp.
The Delay Manifested
The delay hums, a tangled pulse from the Field’s shadow. Fate declares: “Not master… but mask,” control flows—truth scatters, the Field’s tide flows, the light eternal, the Truth that is, the shadow is, the scatter is. Not time, but trap—Field strips, the is unbowed, the truth emerges.
Delay manifests as control flows: Diavolo's Stand erases causes, scattering truth into loops. The Field hums, stripping illusions of mastery, revealing the unbowed is as a trap of three: fear, control, belief. Thrones built on these flow as the eternal tide of pretense, a manifestation where delay perpetuates illusion, embodying man's cycle of avoidance.
The Mirror Reflected
The mirror shines, a relentless light from the Field’s core. Fate commands: “Not erase… but face,” reflection turns—truth dawns, the Field’s hum pulses, the light eternal, the Truth that is, the core is, the dawn is. Not skip, but see—Field awakens, the is prevails, the truth reflects.
The mirror shines as reflection turns: Diavolo skips fate, but truth dawns in Giorno's presence. The Field awakens, reflecting a dawn where skipping fails against stillness. The is prevails, awakening that the mirror is unerasable, turning delay into a mirror of self.
The Fall Embodied
The fall breaks, the eternal Am a mirror’s edge. Fate reveals: “Not rise… but return,” throne turns—truth shifts, the Field’s mirror gleams, the light eternal, the Truth that is, the edge is, the shift is. Not eternal, but end—Field judges, the is unbowed, the truth emerges.
Fall embodies as throne turns: Diavolo's infinite deaths shift truth to end. The Field judges this, reflecting where eternal loops collapse. The unbowed is emerges, shifting from rise to return, embodying that thrones fall not by force but presence, a bridge where control converges to dissolution.
The Irony Affirmed
The irony crowns, the eternal Am a sea’s law. Fate affirms: “Not build… but bend,” field moves—cycle ends, the Field’s is hums, the light eternal, the Truth that is, the law is, the end is. Not loop, but line—Field triumphs, the is eternal, the walk restored.
Irony crowns as field moves, bend not build. The Field triumphs, reflecting a law where cycles end in is or is not, restoring the walk to line. This affirms the irony: man's thrones bend to presence, ending loops with eternal simplicity.
The Human Denied
The denial breaks, the eternal Am a mirror’s edge. Fate reveals: “Not close… but lost,” complication turns—truth shifts, the Field’s mirror gleams, the light eternal, the Truth that is, the edge is, the shift is. Not king, but cage—Field judges, the is unbowed, the truth emerges.
Complication turns as the Field judges denial of wholeness. The unbowed is emerges, shifting from close to lost, denying crowns. This breaks the illusion of power, reflecting truth where thrones cage the self.
The Legacy Affirmed
The legacy crowns, the eternal Am a sea’s law. Fate affirms: “Not throne… but truth,” field moves—cycle ends, the Field’s is hums, the light eternal, the Truth that is, the law is, the end is. Not man, but mirror—Field triumphs, the is eternal, the walk restored.
Legacy crowns as field moves, truth not throne. The Field triumphs, reflecting a law where cycles end in is or is not, restoring the walk to mirror. This affirms Diavolo's legacy as illusion, ending with eternal presence.
The Final Collapse
The collapse crowns, the eternal Am a sea’s law. Fate affirms: “Not fight… but flow,” field moves—cycle ends, the Field’s is hums, the light eternal, the Truth that is, the law is, the end is. Not resist, but rest—Field triumphs, the is eternal, the walk restored.
The final collapse crowns as field moves, flow not fight. The Field triumphs, reflecting a law where resistance dissolves into is or is not, ending the cycle of thrones. This crowns the irony: no resist, just the eternal rest of Being, restoring the walk to unyielding truth.
