Phoenix: Hey, are you done with all these current sufferings?
Phoenix: This Covid-19 thing and now the Comedian-Strongman War.
Black Swan: Hey man. This is what I was born to do, no?
Phoenix: Aren't that not enough? You already got two and still going on now!
Black Swan: What's your problem? Your time only comes in 2024. I've got more unfinished tasks.
Phoenix: So tell me what new havocs you intend to unleash.
Black Swan: Period 9 is Li Gua, right? It is Fire, right?
Phoenix: Yeah, you're right. Time for every Female to rise, more so a beautiful one like me. Ouch you are so ugly!
Black Swan: You better watch your mouth yeah! Hell had no fury like a woman scorned! I can turn that fire into many gigantic fireballs in the skies. All that I need to do is to get that Strongman guy push the N-button.
Phoenix: Seriously. Are you out of you mind!
Black Swan: Okay, okay, okay. That one is catastrophic. It could be the end of the world. I keep it for last option.
Phoenix: Don't even think of it.
Black Swan: How about a little less serious one.
Phoenix: And what's that?
Black Swan Turn the fire into 2-3 degree increase in world temperature, climate change.
Phoenix: That's as bad as pushing N-button. Incessant rains, massive floods, heatwave, droughts, rising sea levels and famines will wipe out millions and millions of lives. We will live in a hot world as though the Sun will never set.
Black Swan: Hmmmm....then let try something a little milder one.
Phoenix: Like what?
Black Swan: Wars, high energies and commodities prices, shortage of food and commodities and the slow and small rise in interest rate to fight inflation may not necessary trigger a sudden collapse of the market.
Phoenix: Your suggestion?
Black Swan Tank the market...melt it and let the economy and market goes into tailspins.
Phoenix: Do you discriminate which one to hit?
Black Swan: I hit the No.1 and everything will drop like dominos. The No.2 seems to know how to shut themselves down to achieve zero Covid-19. That is bad enough for them to self destruct and the world would be hit as well. No.1 always wants to provoke and infuriate No.2 so I am not surprised they would start one across the straits. No.1 is desperate to look Macho so he will try to pick a fight with No.2 to safe his face and manhood since he dares not go into direct face-off with the Strongman who ever ready to push the N-button.
Phoenix: How about No.3?
Black Swan: No.3 has been castrated long time ago by No.1 using N-button and through the Plaza Accord. They have no choice but to follow what No.1 tells them to do. On top of that No.3 fears No.2 who has taken over her place and challenging the supremacy of No.1 and going to replace No.1 soon. The Emperor is doing his work humbly and quietly. He could possibly help the world economy as No.2 while others faltered. His country can be dragon and phoenix at the same time. That's why The Dao, Yin-Yang originated from his country. No.2 rise will prompt No.1 to act to protect her position and as a consequences my black event could happen.
Phoenix: This one is quite bearable for me. That No.1 super power economy has been printing money for decades as though they can keep on spending infinitely without really producing enough for their own consumption. Furthermore everyone must use their money to trade and if you refuse to they would cut you off from the system, SWIFT-ly.
Black Swan: But before I choose any one or two of those above the end result I must see ashes.
Phoenix: Why is it so?
Black Swan: Isn't that you're a Phoenix.
Phoenix: So?
Black Swan: Like they said a phoenix must rise from the ashes, right? Otherwise when Period 9 arrived without ashes there would not be The Rising of Phoenix. There will be no grand welcome for you. You know everyone is so excited about you. Some even making huge amount of money talking about you to others. My name doesn't sell like yours. They don't want my name. But when I acted they would suffer tremendous pain. That's how I make my present felt.
Phoenix: Oh, God! Everyone has suffered a lot and barely surviving because of the on going so called Black Swan events created by you. You're still not happy and wanted more. All I wanted to do is to give hope and motivation to others. Some people use my name to make money and I don't even benefit it.
Black Swan: I need a lot of ashes to make me black otherwise I would lose my power to punish or penalize; and people would continue to be greedy, selfish and irresponsible to Mother Nature, and you know we need to balance the Yin and Yang, right? I need to teach them a lesson before it was too late. No matter what they still kill each other and sometimes I am very confuse whether was it me who acted on them or they did that to themselves.
Phoenix: You are such a volatile and unpredictable creature. Can't really figure out what's on your mind. I better consult some FS Masters to predict your next move. May God has mercy on us when you unleash the next black event.
Black Swan: And don't forget I will always and forever be here since universe existed, Period 9 and whatnots. Dinosaurs are some of the examples. Humans are more luckier than other species because they have the intelligence and all the tools using science, technology or even metaphysics to read, analyze and predict past, present and the future. Egoistical, greedy, selfishness and gullible are their downfall.
