Cosmo and his whimsical Logogram had never been a joke. The Logogram was real.

CALCHESTER CITADEL, STEFFITH.

I COULD NOT SPEAK.
DANGER lurks before the gods, while safety lurks behind, somewhere still exists the contraption I hid for you to find.
Tristan was as still as a statue. Eric looked like he was carved from granite. His eyes were the only living things on his face. I sat down on a chair, putting my head in my hands. Terror burned in my blood.
This was not possible. This could not happen.
"Cosmo..." Eric uttered softly, his eyes misty. "He wasn't lying. The Goldberg Logogram does exist."
"Meaning that the Titans might return," Tristan observed quietly to himself, whiter than a sheet. That seemed to the only sign of alarm on the handsome god, yet only I could notice the rigid set of his jaw that gave away how tensed he was.
Put together the crafty device, strike it up and down, so Tytos can be free once again and cause the Triarchy harm.
"The Triarchy," I murmured slowly. "It refers to us. Three Monarchs in a Monarchy. A Triarchy."
"Tytos," Eric added in a trembling voice, "refers to House Tytos, the House of the Titans. And... written by Pandora? She was the one who created the Logogram in the first place!"
It was impossible.
It was like saying that the sun had stopped shining, or that trees had ceased to grow, or that glaciers had melted and drowned all land in sight.
Even that could happen. But not this.
The seconds turned to minutes.
"You - must have... made a mistake, Valmont," I said, my voice queer and loud in the strangled silence. "Maybe you read it wrong."
"There's nothing wrong with the way I read it," he growled with a low rumble in his silk throat. "This message makes perfect sense. Apparently, Pandora left clues for one of her Titan children to find the Logogram, finish it and kill all the gods."
"That's not possible," I argued hotly. "All eight Titans of House Tytos were imprisoned in Seattoria by Cosmo! Pandora, Zadicus and all their six children. There is no way they can be back in Endollon!"
