§ 6. On Orveth
Axiom (AX-ES-1.11) \Orveth := {x | Will(x) ≠ 0 ∧ Energy(x → Other) ≠ 0 ∧ Lyveth(x) → 0}
Props.
- Orveth(x) → Feyra(x) → 0 (freedom tends toward null).
- Orveth(x) ∧ Will(x) > 0 → Surith(x) not necessary, yet effect similar.
- Orveth erodes resonance: Orveth(x) → Corrupt(Arivath).
- Orveth sustains False Kareth: Kareth(false) = conditions preserved by consuming others' life-energy.
- Surith = absence of will; Orveth = diversion of will.
Corollary. n ∈ \Aevyra → Orveth(n) ↔ {trace erased, field corrupted}.
Scholia to AX-ES-1.11 Orveth is not classical slavery. It is not defined by chains or death threats, but by the systematic diversion of life-energy into sustaining another's field of existence. The subject remains formally free, may even carry will — yet nearly all their resonance is spent outside themselves.
Thus Orveth differs from Surith. Surith annihilates will. Orveth permits will but redirects it, burning the trace (lyveth) into someone else's infrastructure. For Aevyra, this state is destructive: the enslaved decays toward silence; the master corrupts the field through parasitism.
Strophe Not all slavery is chains. If your life sustains another's comfort, while your own trace fades, this is Orveth. It is freedom bent, not broken — but bent so far it tends to zero.
