Relics of the Coil · World of Warcraft Addon
Ten thousand lines on the humility and complicated generosity of Xal'Reth. Please read the warning first.
Before you install
The Litany is ten thousand lines long. It does not tell a story, does not build to anything, and cross-references itself until it loops. Nothing in it is dark, violent or disturbing. It is simply relentless, and relentless sameness is not good for everyone.

The Litany of Begging is, on purpose, the most boring, droning and needlessly complicated text ever written in the name of the Coil. This addon performs it as emotes, one line at a time: start anywhere, perform a single line, jump by Title, search, and read your target into the Litany as the Notional Asker. Or type /litany all and walk away.
Perform It
Every line is an emote, every 3 to 60 seconds. /litany all (or the Perform Entire Litany button) posts the whole document from line 1 to line 10,000 without stopping, with a progress bar and time remaining.
Find Your Place
Jump straight to any of the 200 Titles, search the text, or perform one line on demand. Your place is saved across logouts, and the performance pauses in combat and boss chat lockdown, then resumes on the same line.
The Notional Asker
Appoint your current target as the Notional Asker, and their name is read into the Litany as it goes, wherever the text calls for one who asks.
The Twenty Books
Twenty Books of ten Titles each, from Of Definitions and Their Interpretation to Of Exceptions to Exceptions and Of the Final Provisions and the Repeal of Nothing.

LitanyOfBegging folder into World of Warcraft\_retail_\Interface\AddOns\. On Windows this is usually C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\_retail_\Interface\AddOns.AddOns, not in a folder inside a folder./reload./litany to open the panel. You have been warned, lovingly.World of Warcraft/_retail_/Interface/AddOns path. Switch to Desktop Mode and move the folder there.No. At the default 12 seconds per line it takes about 33 hours. The option exists because the Litany demands completeness. Nobody should do this.
None at all. Despite the word Politics appearing nearby, it is satire of bureaucratic writing, not of any real religion, group or person.
