The Half-Turned (The Anticyclone, The Cycle-of-Seasons, The Impatient Act) is the feral eleventh Hour of the Second Fansus, represented by Death. It emerged from Sea-Of-Mists in an inverse to the The Knife’s Edge and The Storm-Tossed; born when The Hunter’s corpse and The Inks tears mingled with man’s memory of the Subsumption. It waits watching beneath the waves, gazing upon the storm with interest and impatience. Its aspects are Winter, Moth, and Forge. It rules over the escalation of conflicts and their abrupt conclusions. It ends the journey to make room for the next.
Description
History
Appearance
It’s upper half is often depicted as old, wild turkey with massive wings. The wing feathers, as well as all the feathers, are spear to just be more wings. It is often shown rising from a vast gray sea, sometimes with a circus or theater nestled beneath it.
The less revealed lower half often appears as a vast worm or eel of sorts, with bits of it rising out of the sea behind the main body.
Principles
The Half-Turned is an hour of Forge and Winter; unraveling the old to make way for the new. The old, in this case, being the conflicts that refuse to pass, or fail to amuse its Moth.
The Half-Turned is not counted as an hour of Edge, but before it left the sea it could have been. Its might cannot be denied or controlled. It’s endings are as indifferent as they are catastrophic. Only by appealing to its longing for fresh conflict to can the beating of its wings be postponed.
It is the Hour of restlessness and the changing of stories. It is a patron of actors, but not of play-writes. Its favor is an unpredictable power for all orders and movements. No story can stay fresh forever. Likewise, no establishment, or movement, can stay in its favor forever. When unrest persist but fail to usurp, who the Half-Turned favors rests solely in who entertains it best, and even then it will tire of both eventually. Where The Storm-Tossed lingers, the sound of its wings can be heard. Where its gales near their peak, The Knife's-Edge soars. Round and Round and Round they fly.

Names
Jev, the Opening-Act
The first Name-Fragment of the Half-Turned; the call of the Half-Turned freed and given flesh.
Jev serves as the herald of the Impatient Act—the bringer of its will. A colorful jester, donning a chromatic jingling cap and a joyful mask. He enters with instruments in every hand, cutting the world open with every note, opening the world to the wings of his master.
Though not a sign of doom, his arrival is a warning of one that may soon come.
When uninvited, he is a definite threat.
Septa, The Pre-Finale
The second Name-Fragment of the Half-Turned; A colorless jester who hides a face of claws beneath their tragedy mask.
Black as the eyes of the Ox.
White as the heart of the Glory.
Her spear and gaze move to ensure that the will of her maker may not be denied. She is never to be taken lightly, for her very presence signals the Anticyclone's direct intervention.
Should she manifest uninvited, it is already too late.
