1. Territory expansion
>Same thing. Keep spreading south.

2. New magical boons are discovered. It Is discovered that catalysts can be soaked In the practitioners blood and mixed with Pale essence to deepen their connection to It. Early tests showed side effects of the unprepared seizing up upon using an 'attuned' catalyst for the first time, but steps have been taken since, other practitioners now helping to stabilize spiritual outflow until new practitioners can safely manage and control their new output.

>Pale attunement. Magus Potential has been Increased for Military purposes and otherwise.

>>3220436
The bee doesn't even notice the dwarf approaching it from the side until his hands lay on its thorax. If it weren't feeling so good, the meeting would have ended with a nasty sting and a life lost on both sides. The bee lightly buzzes its wings until the dwarf stops.

As the Hive has no concept of money, the dwarven attempts at trade fall on deaf ears(?)

(To the diplomat of Emi)

Diplomat Kanos understands full well their trepidation In diving Into the arms of another, and promises them time and peace of mind. In the meantime, he states he will help them by offering them supplementary food and medicine, (are they still suffering at all from the plague?) and respectfully asks them of their political situation, what they would need to be freed of Uwuin'taipan rule.

The Diplomat does not immediately promise them weapons to arm themselves, but says In the future they would ensure they had ample means to defend themselves on their own terms, though should they need weapons sooner to free themselves of their captors the council may agree to such a thing.

(I have to go Into work now, don't expect me to reply to anyone for some hours.)

(And I know I still need to finish with the Cyclops and the Gorgons too, I'll continue that once I'm home.)

>>3220272
His ceramic face twists into a smile. "Please, waste my time some more, I've been looking for an excuse to try this new trick with the human liver. Where are the chosen?" Reflected in golden eyes, the man can see himself rot alive.

> Rewrite of action 2 from last turn
With the Crussade a victory and time to recover the Uwuin'tai[an nation stands strong and proud once again. Now with 2 nations under it's comand. (I will include them in some of my actions as I don't get any additional actions for them)

> Uwuin'taipan
The "White Rats" become a thing we learned how to fight in Sarinthia and more so in Calderia a new elite army is established by training skaven to have ridiculous amounts of morale and discipline. Training Skave usually only works torugh pain as such any mibehaviour grants one an acid bath and then healing, the process leaving their fur white and coarse. They are equipped with Enchanted Bronze equipment armour, helmet and a glave. The Soldiers can hardly be recognized as Skaven anymore. The White Rats become the core of the new Uwuin army.

> West Calderia
The tactics and fighting style of the dornians who fought alongside them has really influenced the forces. Digging trenches, standardised equipment and training in morele and discipline become standard. The soldiers are taught to shoot spells like Fireball and Tiny Sun with decent succession while manouverin trenches. Of course in the old calderian way ones with high magical potential are assigned into special units instead and operate the old way.

> Action 1:
Invent Boats. They are simple primitive boats out of chitin and bronze, but really big because Uwuin are big and need to fit on it.

> Diplo-Action
The High Priest of the Sun starts mumbling angrily as he takes out his money-pouch from underneeth his cloak.

The Dwarf would not understand what the Uwuin is saying, but the fammiliar word "Elf" would come up a bunch of times.

The High Priest would pay him the appropriate amount for passing trough and the crussader army would finally arrive back home comfilly settling down in their homes in the tower.
-------------
West Calderia gives a polite no thank-you to the Dwarves as the poppularity of the book "On The Elves and their Lies" makes them averse to trading with Elves unless it is very needed.

Action 2:
A new High Priest of Fire is elected. The old one died of Plague during the crussade.

The new High Priest of Flame is decided trough a combat tournament in the arena on the 5th floor. The flame is the most offensive of the aspects of God and as such it's high Priest decided trough combat ability alone.

>>3220483
A messenger is sent to the Lost Soul (Queen of insects) wanting to know if he could talk to her now.

He seems somewhat distressed as it seems that she decided ignore or forgot her holy duty.

Rolled 60, 43 = 103 (2d100)

>>3220483
While standing around, a dwarf quickly purchases a goat from someone nearby and offers it to the bee.

>>3220502
The man backs up, loses his balance, and falls out a window. The fall is not immediately fatal, the man is not getting up any time soon. "Help! I've be-" The man's words are cut off by an arrow. There is movement in the nearby woods.

>>3220490
Minor plague cases would occur naturally but overall it is mostly a non-issue at this point.
Food would be greatly appreciated.
The diplomat explains that most men are sent to mine for gems and that there are not enough of their people to cause any sort of meaningful defense against the Uwuin'taipa even if they were all armed.

>>3220645
"Ah, that's much more fun." Grevel pulls his knife free and leaps down, sprinting for the treeline.

>>3220660
As he reaches the treeline, he feels a sharp pain in his chest. A man to his side whispers"Almawt lilkifaar" into his ear, before 3 arrows fly towards his head.

>>3220650
> * metanote
If you at least accept most of the popplation having gone crussading and having returned later it was stated that most were Soulgranted for their service.

Soulgranted are physically repulsed by the idea of betraying the Uwuin'taipan and the hatchling which replaced their heart and left lung will first release poison and then die with the host if this is upheld of course the Soulgranted ones do not know why they are experiencing the symptoms.

Thought I'll mention this now as for you not to claim that I didn't earlier.

>>3220355

>>3220685
Grevel grins, inhuman speed having the man pinned to a nearby tree before the arrows pass through the space he was just a moment ago, "oh, you are going to tell me how you snuck up on a fae." A sharp blow collides with the assassin's head before Grevel charges the archers, a sharp whistle calling his fellow huntsmen.

>>3220751
"Stupid infidel" The man coughs up blood. "You don't understand the power of the True God" he laughs a bit before he recites a prayer, and blinding light envelops the forest, blinding the fae. The archers are nowhere to be found, and the man lies in a pool of his own blood, having killed himself.

>>3220761
Grevel smirks, "stupid mortal, you don't understand the power of the fae." He waves over Minerva of the Winter court. She kneels beside the corpse, and her power flows into it. The man finds himself alive, and impossibly cold. "What is your name." Much to his horror, he finds the cold sifting through his mind, searching for the answer the Faerie asked for.

1.Expand to the marked places

>>3220837
The fae finds a block however. One he cannot seem to penetrate. Whether by the act of the True God, or by shear fanaticism, it cannot be breached. Suddenly, the fae are horrified to find the man's belt buckle and boots had iron in them.

>>3220865
As the other far flinch back, Grevel rolls his eyes, fear belongs to the autumn, not the other way around. He takes his knife to the offending articles, treating the harsh burns on his hand with salt from his pocket as Minerva makes another attempt.

>>3220893
"T-try all you want heathen, We are powerful. More powerful then you could ever imagine. Allah Akbar." He laughs as he pulls a cord out of a bag. The explosion deeply wounds the Fae, if not outright killing them. It seems they must wait for a new opportunity.

>>3220909
Grevel sits up, a shard of his face falling to the dirt. "Looks like we're tracking then the old fashioned way. Next time, be sure to forbid any action you don't ask." Minerva looks appropriately chastised.

>>3220084
A letter is returned with a trio of men.. "Sarinthia only has one mage, a sorceress gifted to us by the Dread Emperor. She's currently busy with research. We've sent these three to observe the proceedings."

>>3220272
The garrison at Coldport takes notice of the sudden appearance of a fleet. The garrison command messages central command at Castle Hirukia for orders. Not long after, a single ship is launched from Hirukia to meet with the fleet's commander.

>>3220980
A ship is sighted. Many just want to blow it out of the water, but the fleet's admiral calms the men. If they can talk the situation out, then they will be all the better. If not, then they can watch the fireworks as Coldport is shelled. The fleet waits for the ship.

>>3221053
The situation aboard is tense between the pair. Elf stares down at Human. He questions the admiral as to who he is, where he came from, and what his intentions are in Coldport waters. He is kind enough to inform the Dornish that the area they are in belongs to Sarinthia, that the Jarldoms have been extinguished, and that the Elves protect this territory against the Undead of the east, who put many Northmen to the sword before the army of the Ironmistress was able to stop them.

>>3221081
"You will relinquish the land you have seized from it's rightful Dornian Inhabitants, or there will be war. There is no compromise. The men of the north are weak and pathetic, no wonder you could take them. Return the land, and there will be no further actions taken." He states, returning a cold, harsh stare. Marines have already come on deck, aiming their crossbows down at elven sailors, waiting for an order to be given.

>>3221134
The Elf is pulls a scrying mirror from his side and activates it. A rapid fire back and forth takes place between the Elf and the hand mirror. Leaving it active he flatly he informs the Dornish that they are unaware of any place called "Dorn" or people called "Dorn" and don't really recognize the difference between various types of pale round ears. The area the Dornish are in is being defended from the undead threat, and will not be relinquished to an unknown element. The Dorn may do what they wish east of Knuelldeg but they are also informed that if they attempt to force entry they will be fired upon from Coldport and any land conflict will be contested by the army garrisoning the area.

>>3221148
The man looks down, raises his hand, and lowers it swiftly. Marines fire upon elven sailors, and many on deck at the time are cut down by the fire, Simultaneously, The ship's broadsides open up, and the cannonballs tare great holes in the hull of the elven vessel, which takes on water at an alarming rate. (Whether you want me to take on elven POWs from the ship or not is up to you)

With this, the rest of the fleet advances on to Coldport, where a blockade is established, and naval weapons rain fire down upon the port. Cannons roar as their deadly ammunition is sent spiraling into homes, shops and people, which are ripped apart from the supersonic speeds the balls impact them at. Tri-Ballistae launch log sized Bolts, which burst into flames upon impact, adding to the destruction. Marines sing the State Anthem of the Dornian Council and cheer on the gunners.

The people of Shangri-La, the human's, the perhaps few elves and other assorted undead races and mutated creatures welcomed the three with a delight, a curiosity in many's eyes.

The living were...a curiosity despite their trading that may come through Shangri-La. Different then them almost intrinsically. The elves found themselves before a large being.

Before the god, the being on the mountain quietly staring down at the canal. Reached forward, a gleam from it's tendril, a pulsation and the undead around them noticably twitching. Some of their mouths opening and closing, wordlessly chanting, eye's dilated, trembling, not a trace of thought, a trace of disunity in this moment.

Combined action.

((Using both my actions to make sure this works essentially.))

The water gleams a soft gold, as life is directly changed and molded, spreading rapdily out of the canal, as fish grow plumper, as scales sheem and gleam. As tendriled creatures rapidly begin to form, mutating from predatory species and crustaceans, some staying the same size, while others begin to grow to more signifcant sizes.

The rebirth of the water has begun, a direct touch, a direct show of power by the rebirther himself! Let all those who drink upon it know that it is he who has made the water so grand!

Has perfected it~

Has reborn it~

1. Expand to capture as much northmun and unoccupied coastline as possible

Resettlement efforts, reinforcements, and proper prospecting all go into resettling the plague-emptied territory of the North. The coastline, seen as vital for future conflict in the north, is rapidly claimed, with waystations appearing along the coast to put a physical testament to the claims.
>highlighted areas

2. Arcane Research

The Sorceress sent by the Dread Emperor is finally put to use researching and improving the spellpaper the Sarinthians use for so much. While she does not necessarily tamper with their one-use nature, she does make refinement to the arcane structure of their function. They are further removed from the original Uwuin workings, no longer requiring trigger words but merely a trigger intent to function, with the ability further enhanced by both verbal and proper somatic components. The result is spellpaper that is more effective and resilient, and definitely less obnoxious to use.

It's application is many-fold, but chiefly it makes both food and water purification strips more useful as they don't constantly need to be shouted at to work and it has military applications. Long vexing the Sarinthians had been the inability to marry an explosive wrap with a combustive wrap. The combustive wrap would either burn away the explosive runes, or the explosive runes would be too far away to activate when commanded. The end result was an awful lot of duds or misfires. The new paper, working on intent instead of command, circumvented at least one part of the problem and reduced misfires dramatically. It's applications in other scrolls were also nice, but overall the sorceress's mastery in magic was more than welcome.

>>3220937
A letter and series of delegations arrive from Sarinthia, thanking the Dread Emperor for his generous gift of a sorceress so talented. Given to the Emperor are rich spices like garlic, cloves, honey, saffron, pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg. He is also given several cows, a fearsome Vica bred for war, and a dozen fireloques.

>>3221202
The Elves had come concerned. They left pretty pleased. The rebirth had actually seemed to improve the lake. The fish looked better, crabs looked better, squid was tasty so some of the creepy predators being turned squid-like was okay. Overall there was a general mood of pleasure surrounding it. The consensus was that when the Eldritch weren't literally exterminating races of Men they were pretty cool dudes, and expressed a hope to their hosts that all that northern business just be shuffled away. The Church were still trade partners, they still liked them (outside of creepy church land) and expressed that the members of the Cult were still welcome to visit provided that they wore charms against smelling.

The people seemed pleased by that reaction, the northern buisness being something that perhaps caused a bit of a confusion. A soft murmuring, it came across as them not showing remorse, even approving of the slaughter and conversion of the norsemen they had grabbed.

Unflinching, almost joyous that it happened. Nonetheless that they were trade partner's still and that borders had been...opened at least in the south seemed to please many.

The elves may find in time perhaps a small undead visiting population, with any that settle if they are allowed such most likely along the coast of the lake, preferring to look with reverance towards their god clearly moving about their former homes lands.

The fleet shelling Coldport is met with return fire from the shore bombards. The Elf had not been lying. The return fire was less, as there were simply fewer artillery pieces in Coldport to return fire with, but their power was impressive. The return fire matched the distance of cannon, and as those ships closed in to ballistae distance the counter-fire took its toll. Large iron balls, weighing between eight and twelve pounds, slammed into the sides of Dornish ships, splitting wood and killing men. Some ships went down to the deep. The aim was spotty and it was clear that the shore gunners really had no idea where to aim at on the ships. After nearly six hours of back and forth shelling the shore guns abruptly fell silent. The city had not burned as the Dornish had intended because teams of men with arms full of paper constantly fought fires with the paper that burst into a spray of water when thrown. What had happened though was the seeming abandonment of the from the docks. The Dornish could land their troops on what remained, but it was virtually assured that there remained a sizable garrison in the city itself if it could withstand a naval barrage for so long, and return fire as it had.

Elsewhere in Sarinthia there was great consternation. Random Paleos appearing from the sea to shoot at a city they were honestly defending from a genocidal threat? It made no sense. Neither did the callous execution of a messenger sent in good faith under a flag of truce. Word is sent out to every nation the Sarinthians were in contact with, seeking information about the vagabonds attacking Coldport, and showing in visceral detail the murder of the messenger recorded on the scrying mirror.

----------
During a Council meeting over scrying mirror the hands agreed: There was little need for the Hands to send more forces north. Already they had put nearly 80,000 soldiers in the area, 45,000 of them being hardened professionals with the best equipment available. For now, they would suffice until more information was available. Caslte Hirukia was on guard, and the canal blocked with chain and defended by heavy shore bombards to put a stop to any ship trying to force the canal. More troops would be called out of reserve household units and prepared for the trip north if it proved necessary, but for now they would merely be on stand-by drills. There was a realization that this would simply need to come in two waves. The first, units that had been disbanded as the Eldritch threat retreated back to its fortresses could be called back into the field with financial incentives. The mobilization of the household reserve units would be slow, especially as so many of the first wave had already been called up to go north and the others were on stand-by as reinforcements. It would be months before a second wave was properly trained.

The news of the murder of the scryer was...not taken very well by the population at large. Perhap's an extension of the rebirthers feelings or merely just the undeads, the people of the churches genuine belief.

A letter is sent quickly.

>>"We are willing to assist in the defense of Coldfort, we are also more then willing and happy to revive those of your troops who have died that you wish to bring to fight for their homes again.

In exchange we would merely ask for permission to use the canal as well for our own eventual Navy and to build a road inbetween Knulldeg and Avalon and our fortifications on the border.

-Your clear friend, Lizzy, The right hand of the Rebirther.

>>3221391
Lizzy had just finished sending off a letter, when the man was invited into the grand hall of Avalon, the city had grown much, some of it made of stone, bigger walls and it had two districts, New and Old Avalon.

Old Avalon being the city he knew well enough. New Avalon being a clear enough expansion.

"Friend! Okay..take it a bit slow, what...are you dealing with exactly?"

Intent, a bit excited clearly enough, pumped up clearly.

>>3221396
A return letter is sent back.
>Provided that the Northmun and Sarin populations are left unmolested and dead unless expressly stated otherwise in their will, your conditions are agreed to. The canal is for all of us to use, with appropriate toll tax for its upkeep of course.

>>The Kamadani Cyclopes

>Cyclopean Clockwork (in progress)
>Companous Dockworks

With the gorgon clocks fresh off the docks, a new era in cyclopean development occurs. The practicle, intended use of a time-piece is largely lost on the cyclopes. They have long moved at their own pace; shipments coming in early or late depending on the individual chosen, meeting times varying by hours, days or even weeks completely missed spent in their workshops. The introduction of clocks doesn't change much if anything in this regard. But the beautiful craftsmenship put forth draws many cyclopes to experiment. While frowned upon by some, a few delicate cyclopes do dismantle the clocks to get to their inner-workings. What they find astonishes them; hundreds if not thousands of tiny moving pieces all working in tandem to achieve full functionality.
Cyclopes are unmatched craftsmen, but even they have their physical limits. With their current tools and giant hands, they have little way to properly replicate the Gorgon's unparalleled art. For now, they begin to manufacture gears and springs to test out the same concepts on a larger scale.

With so many different boats all landing at once on their untouched soil, the Seer Filos sends in requests for masons and stone-workers to construct a proper docks for Companous. By the dozens, cyclopes flock to Companous, eager to build a new structure. Jetting out from the town, a flat circular shelf is raised from the sea. Sticking out like spokes on a wheel, several long, sturdy piers are constructed, each with different riggings and at different heights, meant to accommodate just about any ocean-going craft. The main shelf, meanwhile, has numerous buildings erected to support visitors, loaders, and the general populous when the trade-town is in operation. The lookout-tower is heightened, with several telescopes and signalling lanterns placed to help gather cyclopes when ships are seen incoming.
While built for practical use, aesthetics did not fall to the wayside. While stone is the main building material, marble is often used as an accent. Each Pier is also delicately detailed; with the cobblestones designed to look like snake scales, and the ends of each pier roughly forming the heads of snakes. The eyes are even lit to help show the edges of the piers. Meanwhile, Rene's statue is adorned with several others in a ring around the central plaza of the docks.
The cyclopes go the extra mile to make it as if the pier were a gorgon head, feeling a sense of wounded pride and competition when informed that a statue of a cyclopes was built as Unoeil's lighthouse.

>>3221411
he waves a hand in the air. "Ratlings are causing trouble in the wastes, not really your concern, they're land locked and separated from you. This 'one god' on the other hand, is rather problematic, as it lacks the inclination to work with other gods, unlike your god, who has never shown any sign of displeasure at working with the Spire." He furrows his brow, "I apologise, I've forgotten about the courtesies, how has existence been treating you?"

>>3221470
Their is quiet for a few moments, mentions of ratlings causing a clear confusion. Another religion, fingers folding over each other as she thinks, green hair being adjusted and ruffled.

Before the pleasent greeting interrupted her train of thought, a small smile being given.

"I've...been great really, were changing the occeans finally, though was a bit scared really..Uh, did some diplomatic stuff with some islanders and they really, reallly diden't trust or like us. Managed to get some kind of agreement luckily, but yeah.

As for that religion, maybe we could get them to perhaps back down..or perhaps...we shall see what we can do, just point us to the right place alright friend?

Is their anything else you might need by the way?"

>>3221494
He smiles, "thanks for the concern, but I just wanted to make sure you weren't in the dark about these things. Speaking of Darkness, would you mind asking your god if he knows a 'shadow king' I've noticed some similarities between their methods."

>>3221518
Their face flickers for a moment. A small hum leaving them, leaving their throat. Smelling of perfume, relaxed before they speak outwards, rushing from their throat.

"The Rebirther comes from below, from one of our Mountains. I do not know what the shadow king is, noir does he..or at least he has not informed me such. But, yeah, happy to see you...to have you around, more of your people should visit sometime, maybe we can make some sort of road, a split off from the one we have with another nation perhaps?

Diplomacy. Propose the pictured plan to take out the Skaven horde to all nations effected.
Action 1. With abundance of food, public schools are founded, so a larger population might have the skills to become artisans, engineers, or even Sorcerers.
Action 2. Gray missionaries are sent around the continent, preaching not from churches, but working alongside farmers, giving away hot meals on street corners, providing healing in brothels and secrets among peasants. Nobles are contacted as well, the powers and greatness of Calderia being used as an example. Not a single word is spoken about denouncing other gods, the Spire in particular encourages holding many gods in favor.

The cannons focused their efforts on the docks, splintering them, rendering them unusable. There would be no ships form those docks any time soon. Troop ships held off, as the shelling would continue. Cold Port would be no more by the time marines would land. Those men throwing papers would be targeted by Ballistae, skewering 4-7 people on a successful hit.

Back on Dorn, the Council receives word of the attack, and Conscription notices are to be distributed. There will be no shortage of Patriotic men willing to serve the nation. Shapers mold Armor and weapons, Artificers enchant Ammunition and weapons, Shipwrights craft new vessals in the span of days, and the Torian Mines pump out sulfur by the ton, which are brought to alchemists, which create Black Powder, which is bagged in silks and cloths to be put into cannon. Sargents whip Farmers, laborers and minor nobles into proper Dornian Infantrymen, teaching them tactics both new, Like anti-magic trenches, and old, like anti-cavalry formations. The Military-Industrial Complex of the Isles is rolling again...

>>3221819
A silver shod boot bursts through the veil in the midst of the extremist camp, the monster that steps through is a prince of Autumn, his very presence piercing the hearts of mortals with fear. Horns sound in the woods, a sound that leaves no doubt that these things don't see you as heretics, nor political enemies, nor any sort of people, you are their prey, and they your hunters. Arrows fly through the air with uncanny precision, even when they do hit steel, the silver tips punch through as if the armor were but paper. The Prince lays into the men with a sword that is the very concept of sharpness made thing.

>>3221857
In the end, 10 men are dead. 2 From suicide bombing, the rest from the fae. The Fae don't come out unscathed either, as some men coincidentally wielding inferior Iron weapons get lucky hits, while others die from point blank explosions or burning pitch. The have taken out one of hundreds of cells, a number that grows as the days grow on. Many are content to live their lives as hermit colonies, but many more are radicalists bent on the death of the Spire.

Over the past few days, a few missionaries have gone missing. No one has scene a hair of them since. Parties of concerned people look to the woods for their whereabouts, most returning empty handed, and some not at all...

In Idyllic by the sea, a group of pilgrims have taken refuge for the day in an inn, but one of their number is missing. They search for him, in the streets, in the alleys, and in the market. They catch sight of him talking to a Calderin missionary, before he stabs him, and pulls the cord. In the aftermath, these pilgrims would be shaken by the events, but their resolve stays, and they assist the injured...

>>3221910
Raids just like the first continue to sweep, the faerie method shifting to favor archery, as melee combat with these is the wrong combination of dangerous and unchallenging. Not a single one of these are worthy duelists, making it better to taste the fear as death comes from a distance. As for the missionaries, they start traveling with extra-planar guards, Fae with sharpened senses, demons with some power, angels with different powers, even a few of the Starless folk volunteer, though their presence is too counterproductive in most regions to justify accepting.

>>3221953
If I may, did we ever officially open trade? I remember establishing It way back at the party at Idyllic by the Sea, what In particular would you tend to purchase from our merchants?

Food? Metal? Ships? Weapons? Other?

>>3221953
Eventually, the fear gives way to fanaticism, the men no longer fear their death. They die martyrs, so they don't fear a hell. Now, with the destruction of a few neutral camps, The Chosen actively hunt the fae, with tales passed around on how Iron works the best from those who lived to tell the tale. Many fae die in suicidal attacks, the last thing they feel off the humans is pure bloodlust and fanatic devotion. Every camp that falls allows for two more in distant areas to spring up, and it now seems that the hunters are quickly losing numbers to their plentiful prey. Successful hunters bring back the heads of fallen fae as trophies.

>>3221973
Three days prior to the Winter solstice, the attacks stop, the last one leaving a frozen, undead, mortal behind. He can only scream in agony over the words carved into his chest. "Eternia is reborn at the dawn of the next court, our people are disposable, our gods are replaceable, our will eternal. Despair comes, mortals, whether you fear it or not."

>Actions

1. Refine enchantments via Runes. Runic engravings allow for metal works that have undergone Pale Smithing techniques (They are able to store spiritual energy that can be tapped into) to be Interacted with In more complicated ways. Glyphs and runic symbols allow for more than one kind of energy to be stored or released, or Interact with energies In specific ways depending on the rune. Somewhat slowly, this process Is applied to personal weapons of practitioners and able captains.

>Acquire Runes

2. Begin creating a prototype for a new weapon based off the Gale Ballista.

>Months earlier
Plague, both a new concept and not. When the Sarinthians moved into Northplace the Northmun there were riddled with it. It was, mercifully, easy enough to spot. That didn't stop flare-ups in the army camp, but it was something that could be mitigated. The real question was what to do with the survivors and with the victims. The only real solution was to move them out of Northplace. Construction teams would be there soon to begin work on the canal, and the constant influx of troops and workers would make the city a charnel house if the problem wasn't solved. Adding to that problem was the simple fact that a massive camp of sick people so close to the front line was idiotic. The solution then was to move them as far away from everything that mattered as possible. That meant Coldport, which was the only urban center in the area that wasn't strategically important. Frankly, Coldport was irrelevant and that was perfectly fine for this purpose. Coldport serving as a hospital was, in some respects, ideal. Any hospital would need to be far enough away from an undead advance that the corpses could not be used again, and Coldport was at the time a city that was still in good repair. There was also a fortress between Coldport and the frontline, so the place was hardly undefended even if the worst came to worst.

Plague rippled through the army none-the-less, but its effects were less than if the precautionary measures had not been taken. With Coldport the designated hospice location it was given a decent guard in the event of an attack, but with only four bombards and less than five hundred soldiers, it was far from a veritable fortress. In truth, the most important element the city had was a wall. The Grey Death was contained to one city, out of the way, but still within easy travel. It was, frankly, no worse than the constant cholera outbreaks in Ebonhawke and Sendaria. The final tally in Sarinthian forces that succumbed to the plague was about nine thousand, spread out between reserve units coming across plagued camps and the initial wave of infections. A smaller flare up did occur in Sendaria from a unit returning on leave, but it burned itself out quickly after destroying a district hard hit by an earlier Cholera outbreak. The bodies in all situations were incinerated, the ashes mixed into clay, and bricks formed from the remains of the fallen. It made Coldport a mildly ironic place, as it was the hottest location in the north with the constant cremation fires. In order to keep fire from accidentally destroying the city, a large cache of water scrolls were kept there for emergency fire use.

Sarinthian forces moved what walking wounded they could to Waterfort. By now a larger force was mustering to handle any Dornish incursions, but for now the important thing was to get the cannon and supplies away from the indefensible city and someplace was walls that actually faced the ocean, and where proper coastal batteries could make easy work for Dornish naval vessels. Left behind in Coldport were a dozen apothecaries to tend to the plague victims and maintain the hospital. The Dornish were savages, it is true, but even they would not be so savage as to destroy a hospice full of plague victims and their tenders.

Waterfort was better defended, but the defenders there were not so foolish as to just let in the plague camp guards. Being informed by mirror of their coming, a camp was set up outside the walls for the soldiers to rest in for the next two days to be sure of no plague, then allowed inside to barracks while the entire lot awaited orders from Northplace.

>>3222008
PReviously, few ships of Sarinthian make had traveled to Tythian. Now, another one arrives. NOt carrying goods or services, but a chance for open dialogue between the Hands and the Prophet. The messenger came with gifts: A plump cow, a crate of fireloques, a fearsome Vica, and an assortment of rich spices. He also carried with him paper, both spellpaper and regular paper. He offers these to the Prophet in the interest of making a good first impression.

It is admitted that part of the reason they had come was to find out more about the Paleos. The discovery of more than one human nation was intensely surprising, as before they had only known about the northmen. These dark skinned Elves question why it is that all Humans are so pale and ghostly. He also explained that was the reason for the name Paleo.

>>3220632
The bee doesn't care, the wasps however inspect the goat closely.
>>3220550
He is allowed in, accompanied by roughly a hundred wasps and bees. Even though the tunnels were dug wide, the Uwuin would have trouble traversing them. On their way, the messenger gets a glimpse of what life is like down here. Countless chambers filled with plants, others functioning as hatching chambers, covered from one end to the other in sealed honeycombs.
Deep down in the Hive, after what felt like hours, they finally arrive at their target destination: the Queens' chamber. There they both reside, next to eachother, the wasp queen along with the queen bee.
The Queen allows the messenger to speak.

>>3221343
No member of the Hive knows of anything, and frankly, they don't care.

>>3222153
The Diplomat looks extremely surprised that there is more than one Lost Soul now. The Holy book never mentioned this, but infact never explicitly stated that there is "one" either.

"Queens of the Hive,

I've come with a message from the followers of the One True God. Your comming to this world has been prophetised for millenia by our prophets. A single soul different from all others chained down by a fake God.

My Queens there is only two types of beings in this world with souls and with special graces from God. It is us the Uwuin'taipan and you the Lost Sould of myth, the saviour of the world and her kin.

We wish to humbly welcome you back into the world of great Lost Soul."

The Uwuin'taipan is kneeling with it's head held down.

> Action 1: Penal Colony
Unlike old Calderia we do not burn people alive for their faith... and maybe that is a mistake when dealing with terrorists.

In the Frigid North we found a penal colony with a prison constructed at the edge of a mountain with mines carving into it.

(tell me what is in the mountain)

> Action 2: A moat 1/3
The Uwuin decided that there is no such thing as too many defenses. So we are building a moat filled with the most toxic substance know to Uwuin'kind... water!

It will be built on all our land provinces with sharp flint stone at the bottom. The moat is made wide enough to fit a ship and exactly so deep that a ship can sail in during high tides, but will get destroyed on the flint during low ones.

Alterations in the wall are made to quick streams of acid can be released temporarily turning the Moat into an acid moat. Though due to a direct connection with the ocean the acid is very quickly dispersed. Maybe in like 2 hours completelly so.

>>3220645
A proposition is sent to build a commemorative Church to the brave Dornian Crussaders in Tore. It would be a grand cathedral bound to attract pilgrims and tourists.

>>3221585
Grays missionaries are permitted to work alongside our slaves, but their converting seems to have no effect. Instead the slaves seem to constantly bring up arguments invalidating and questioning the Gods of the brought up religion, like.
"How can your Gods be true if you accept heathen ones as true?", "Why would there be multiple omnipotent beings if they are omnipotent? If they are not why do they deserve praised as Gods?"

>>3221518
Request for purchase of slaves is sent out.

1. Joint stock ventures
The new canals has made long distance trading possible. The problem was that it was so inherently dangerous and risky. The concept and administrative capabilities to spread out risk among many merchants makes ventures easier to fund, and thus more profitable. A stock exchange is set up in Sendaria to facilitate the new development.

2. Weapons development
The new spell paper made by the Dread Sorceresses is turned toward weaponry. The outbreak of a new war necessitated it. Most progress was made in artillery. More reliable, and with a lighter barrel, it could be transported by a smaller team of horses. Fire paper was replaced with an explosive scoll triggered by intent of the gun leader.

A similar change was made to fireloques. The old fire paper was replaced by a smaller explosive paper. The arrow that had previously been used was shortened and made lighter for better distance. Penetration remained the same. What did change was ergonomics. The new fireloques could be better aimed from the shoulder, instead of vaguely pointed from the hip.

Mutilated beasts, undead pale as can be excitedly rushing forward come from behind. Coming from the fortifications around Knulldeg. Invited in, terrifying any northmen they may see, with small laughs and their undead northmen brothern and familys rushing to defend old homes.

Armed with steel, with claw and tooth, with axe and spear and blade. Clad in the armor of chain and iron, simple, an army, with hauks overhead, every unit moves synchronized, moving to flank, to integrate into the units that were for the current assault.

Thr invaders of Coldport, would taste the sting of the undead~

The Second Dornian Assault Fleet moves to join the first near Coldport, bringing Logistics ships, more Marines, and more warships. Accompanying them is also the First of the Mageships, who's weaponry consists of State Mages, True God priests and clerics to call down the wrath of arcane and the Divine upon the foe. The First fleet will still have to wait.

The first fleet sights reinforcements arriving. The men smell the stench of death on them. A few men recognize it as those belonging to the Eldritch. It appears more explosive bolts will need to be made. For now, the ships adjust their fire to blow apart these undead constructs, as Tri-Ballistae Load An Incindiary bolt, Frost Bolt, and Acid Bolt with every volley to counter the undead nature of the foe.

The temperature drops sharply months before it would normally, and harsh blizzards become a daily occurance, with anyone not indoors during the storm being frozen in place.
Entire villages are concealed in up to 30 feet of snow.

1.The Gorgons don't know what caused the wave to hit Unoeil. Some say Reqin is angry at them,others say some far off monster created it while academics theorize an earthquake on the other side of world did it. Whatever the case, something must be done in case more monster waves happen in the future. The fanatics are the first to act. They start to build a colossus in the form of Reqin. (if it can be part of this action, ERS makes into migration/trade permission point like Ellis Island. If not, I'll do it next turn)
2.It was a chore to bring in water to the cities. While they try to be clean, sewage was still a problem. Rivers carry away the filth but the Gorgons don't want to pollute their drinking water. Teams of engineers worked tirelessly to find a solution. After much testing and help with blacksmiths, they created plumbing pipes. Who knows what else this can lead to?

The intial volley hits a mark at the very least, many mutated creatures are shot, their riders forced to scamper, nonetheless the majority of the large force makes it to the city, makes it within the ravaged city.

A small exchange of fire, from spears thrown like javelins and small bows grasped from the armory make it so the first day of combat is not bloodless for either side.

Though perhaps the undeads enemy may only suffer from a few wounded at most from this intial assault.

It is during the late hours of the night, that undead sneak deep beneath the waves, prepared to strike, planning to sink ships from below, a deadly ambush was set and more was to come.

>Action 1.
The people of coldport and the enemys of it had something to fear. The rebirthers gaze turns upon them and his power is unleashed. As the land is changed forcefully, a direct intervention, as tendrils grow forth from the ground to lash out at ships.

As eldritch squid like creatures emerge, as gigantic crabs begin to form and as the water gleams a beautiful amber during the day and glows emerald green during the night, concealing any activity beneath the waves both night and day.

Action 2.

The expansion of our territory moves ever onwards, we push to the west, to grab as much as we can once summer sets, people being thawed next to fire, hazy headed and confused beyond most likely belief.

A lone figure in the summer comes forth, walking toward's the prisoner's camp. Armored and with a gleaming skull, a jolly almost certainly terrifying visage as it swaggers forward.

Eye sockets gleaming a soft purple, matching the land they could see, the tendrils they could see in the far distance, the guards are spoken to, in a...common trade language for hopes of comprehension.

"Verify thineself, thou friend, for thou have entered the land of another, nonetheless introduce yourself and I shall introduce my home many leagues yonder behind me."

Fèlix and his crew were just finish with unloading the clocks when they saw scaleless Gorgonoids on the port. How strange? First, it was stout creatures, now pale scaleless ones?! The world is going mad! Reqin save us! Although, it's always inspiring to see new people. So mustering up all his courage, Fèlix went to talk to them. In the trade tongue, "Greetings, friends. I am Fèlix of ERS. Where do you come from?"

It was a lazy day patrolling the Sáe sea between the one-eye and ERS waters. When out in the distance, a captain saw a ships of weird designs approaching. Immediately, the captain ready the patrol fleet to stop these foreigners.

>>The Kamadani Cyclopes

>Zinc Mining
>Elsight-Cyclopes/Seers

Among all the digging that had been done, that would eventually lead to gold and gems, the cyclopes passed many other metals not known at the time. The most prevalent of these would be Zinc, often the only other thing found in the tin mines besides more tin. While fairly dull, some ore-smiths had been inspired by the bronze found from visiting foreigners, and wanted to see just how these came to be.

Elsight Cyclopes, an uncommon and troublesome breed. Their particular true power allows them to see through the eyes of another, essentially trading the visible sight of their target with their own. This has resulted in many Elsight cyclopes either disorienting themselves constantly, or sequestering themselves and never talking with another of their own kind. Because of this unfortunate situation, most all Elsight cyclopes come to the monetary to become Seers.
An Elsight Seer has the potential to see anywhere in the world, but there are limits. To properly far-sight, one must have an established connection with the person they are trading sights with. Second, they must also carry something meaningful to the subject of their sight, cyclopes believe they must have a part of their target's soul with them to properly trade vision: hair, something they made or carefully handled, or a relative are usually the first picks. Finally, the sight is just sight, no hearing or scent or anything, and its two-way. Elsight Seers are more or less able to do this without headache or disorientation, but their targets might not always be so trained in its effects.

The Soulgranted guard starts also flexing by having soft exorcist-aura surrounding it's body.

"I am Prison Chief Sebestian Yelov, what can I help you with? Also send a letter next time when you come, you know seing someone walk in and out so freely might give the prisoners some ideas.

You are also mistaken this land was empty and barren and chosen as a Prison for being empty and barren it is you who infact walked into another's land."

The way the guard talks is upbeat almost silly, but it is clear he wants to relive the tenssion, even though he is annoyed at the undead claiming the land to be his, when it clearly is not.

>>3223057
Sarinthians love honey, but today they come to their winged friends with other offers. They offer more cows, and through pictures try to direct the wasp armies toward stinging everything in meadfort to death. More cows, fatter cows, fat fish, and other food for the death of Dornish settlers. They even suggest it would be a good place for a new hive.

>>3223054
"We came from the mainland, we just constrcuted our first boats and are seeking to figure out how they work in practice. We are happy, yet surprised to find another tribe of soulless ones.

If you could set it up I would like to talk to someone who is a representative of the state as a diplomat for mine."

A 6m bug with a clok on his head answers screaming (translation magic) clearly excited to be on a ship.

>>3223057
The dwarf simply outstretches his arm and gives the wasp a thumbs up.

>>3223078
The undead...blinks a bit strangely, the little lights in their holes blinking in and out. A silence of sorts overcoming their features before a soft sigh, their weapon was thankfully sheathed, though they looked confident, if slightly twitching at the strange feeling of the aura.

"It is indeed mostly barren, long fields of gleaming grass the color of my eye's are in the distance, a city is just south, a canal called Shangri-La. This land here we've always considered our's due to proximity and lack of other claimants, you stand near the church of the Rebirther's land.

The hero of our people who brought salvation to all those who had died tragically or had been stricken down unrightfully like myself, who was stabbed dishonorably by a bandit in the back many years ago.

Nonetheless, I'd wish for a more formal meeting, then this and would want to invite you to either our humble home Avalon, or to our grand canal city Shangri-La."

Jolly in sound, gracious, the feeling of someone immensly pious, of someone who holds love for this rebirther, gratitude and joy.

For one who must not according to Uwuin not have a soul, it would perhaps make sense to be immensly happy at being alive again, they had nothing after all but the cold void of oblivion waiting for them after all without this second chance!

>>3223012
A delegation of Elves arrive from the north. They come with gifts and a desire to open trade relations. They have many things which they express in gifts: Cattle, weapons, spices, paper, and magic scrolls.

"It is the One True God and for he is one he has no name. He is all-powerful and all-knowing. He created all that is and all that is comes from him.

For he is allmighty, omnipresent, perfect and allknowing as such he is one. For if there were multiple beings like that they would be indistuingushable by action and mind and thus still one.

He is the essence of existance the first thing to exist and what it means to exist. To exist means to be descended from him as he is the root of existance.

He is the kindling flame, the roaring fire and the shining sun. The one true God, one before all.''

The Uwuin stards explaining eagerly as it is rare for someone to ask for them to talk about the faith.

He would continue telling basically every myth in their holy book and theological truth for hours on end unless stopped.

>>3223087
"Well I am the man in charge here so I'd be happy to visit your city there and do some tourism. I know not a thing about whatever revived you, but you should thank them might just give you one more chance to convert to my faith.

You see I'm a hobby painter so if you wanna have a diplomatic meeting in Shangri-La tell me like a few days before so I'd stay there for 4 days or so to also do some touristing and painting afterward is that ok?

Ah, also. Could you please not spread your salvation to this land? The people here are to be punished so having the nice and cuddly holy land of your supperior spreading here would kinda defeat that purpouse, in exchange you can have their corpses if they die of overworking or in a brawl or something."

The warden seems to be extremely upbeat, but the undead might be turned off a bit as he seems to have some sort of mental disorder.

>>3223098
He certainly seemed a bit insane, it was a bit worrying, but nonetheless terms were being given.

"We shall expand around this colony, but we shall leave it intact, we may even make it less hospitable if that is what is wished, we will be glad to take any corpses that your willing to offer, come within the next season or so to Shangri-la, the gleaming sea will help distinguish it easily enough, our more formal diplomat will be there.

As for our hero, merely go a few miles west and you should be able to see him casually watching over Avalon like usual atop his mountain."

>>3223103
"Oh, nice. That means I can just casually stroll over there? I'm kinda free now, so might just do that. You can make the land less hospitable. Like why not, just don't touch the mountain the salt is for sale. So no touching of that, ok?

Nice, glad we agree. Gonna prepare my canvas and paints and stroll over to that hero of yours. Who knows maybe hes free and we can talk directly?"

Within a short amount of time the Warden packs his stuff while humming religious songs and strolls over to the mountain to see the Hero.

....it's a long walk. A rather long walk, the purple grass beneath their feet cool and smooth, tendrils flickering and coming about, moving about.

A wagon eventually comes on over, reaches forth for them to come onboard. If he went on it was only a few more hours until they reached Avalon. Till they saw in full the glory of the hero.

Of the god of this church.

A singular gleaming eye turning downwards. Staring upon them, with a hint of curiosity, what they might say perhaps. A singular undead moving to represent them, a small horned child, casually scratching at their scaled cheek.

"Soulless ones?" What on Reqin's green earth is this bug creature talking about? And how is it speaking our language? Ugh, he wasn't paid for this.
"Well whatever your excuse, you're trespassing on our waters. If you wish to speak with Congress, sail back east then south until you see Reqin Island. There you will processed and detained until you are deem safe to meet Congress. If you agree to these terms that is."

>>3223056
"Alright, we have no interest in purchasing or acquiring your cattle, though perhaps you may be able to sell a long lasting brew containing their milk if your nation can muster such a thing. Though we do have an interest in your weapons, spices and paper, could you please show me what fine wares and spices you have on you to me? As if I am impressed by what you have to offer I could get the Traders and Merchants of Nahuzan to flock towards trade with your people, as new fine goods, especially new and exiting goods can often fetch high profits upon their initial entry into the market."

>>3223145
"The detention part does not seem very reassuring. But if they wil guarantee our savety during detention then it is fine."

The Uwuin would ask for some sort of quick doodle or map and then would very slowly head in that direction as it is his first time swimming somewhere non-on-rando, but with a goal in mind.

>>3223140
The guard looks with shimmering glee at the Hero while gently touching it's tentacles. He asks the little girl if she is the voice of the hero and as she affirms he starts cleaning his uniform and fixing up his appearance.

What he sees before him not only is beautiful, but also immensely interesting.

He violently bos donw, stand up upright and says:
"Hello my name Sebestian Yelov, you are the most beautiful creature I ever lies my eyes uppon. I fell in love on first sight.

And while I know this might be inapropriate. I want to ask you to please go out on a date with me!"

He screams out in an upbeat honest tone.

The rumbling sound of some sort of distorted chuckle rushing through the beings mind. A small laugh trying to be held back from the young girl, amused, warmed by the scene.

She speaks for her god.

"Thank you for saying that, it uh, makes him happy to hear such kind words honestly, but..considering differences and his massive size and well that you've just met he's going to say No.

Sebastian, your name rings true, it rings as a name that is existent in our culture, The rebirther as we call him, as his name is well...not possible to pronounce by our throats is glad to meet you, your friendlyness is welcomed~"

>>3223165
Like said the Uwuin travels the proposed road at a slow pace untill he reaches the small island.

>>3223187
"It's not the size that matters, but the skill! Though it is true that we just met. As such I would like permission to come here regularly, so we can get to know each other better maybe become friends.

Also I'd like some way of direct communication. I don't mind if you directly acess my brain telephatically I can controll how much acces you get trough exorcism magic anyway.

Now please don't mind me I am here if you want to talk, but I now shall paint a picture of you my darling. I hope you like it."

The human does not seem discouraged at all, he seems to be even ejoying the Eldrich God acting Koi at first. He has not seen such combination of beauty and power in his life yet as such he will not give up."

>>3223031
It seems that the Undead now have taken the town. Judging from our previous encounters with them, any casualties they may have suffered wouldn't be cared about. On the admirals orders, the fleet turns to meet up with the second Fleet and take the fight to the land.
The dead may claim these ruins. Meanwhile, the First Gunners Company, and the first Combat Mage Company run off their ships onto the continent to join their brothers in arms in the 1st Colonal Protectorate Army. They start their march to the Coast on the morning, singing aloud the State Anthem:
"On our Noble home of Dorn
Island where the fields grow golden
We sing on to it's glory!
May God's (The Gods) grace always be with us!
Hail to our Home,
We will fight for victory for Dorn!

In the war which we were tested,
We showed our noble conviction!
Our will is that of all!
May God's (The Gods) grace always be with us!
Hail to Dorn,
We will fight for victory for Dorn!"

In Dornian
"Na nossa casa nobre de Dorn
Ilha onde os campos crescem dourados
Nós cantamos para a sua glória!
Que a graça de Deus (os deuses) esteja sempre conosco!
Saude ao nosso Lar,
Vamos lutar pela vitória de Dorn!

Na guerra que fomos testados,
Mostramos nossa nobre convicção!
Nossa vontade é a de todos!
Que a graça de Deus (os deuses) esteja sempre conosco!
Salve a Dorn,
Vamos lutar pela vitória de Dorn!"

>>3223203
A small nod is given, by the giant tendriled god. By the thing that seemed to relax, seemed to settle onto the mountain.

"It, he will consider it genuinly, he will enjoy such paintings, the paintings and art of his citizens and others is admired and we share such admiration.

It is one of the things that shows we are well...alive and our revival is his art."

>>3223204
The small sounds of victory are wonderful for the undead, the ruins, the small survivors their first real military fight victorious as can be!

He puts the small string you usually hang paintings by at the end of the creature's tentacle and gently strokes it before letting go.

"See you in a few days!" ~ he happily exlaims and wanders of into the wilderness.

A small retraction of the painting, strange, but rather nice, rather delightful, a wiggle of lts tendrils, a slow rise and a wave as the human leaves, most likely heading along the road.

The bee queen listens to all of it, while the wasp queen is tired of hearing the stories 5 minutes in and retreats to her own chamber.
>>3223086
The dwarf witnesses the wasps and bees exchanging various clicking sounds among eachother, accompanied by wing buzzing and body gestures humans can't interpret. One wasp would cling to the goat's back and deliver a sting, causing the goat to panic and run wild for a minute until the venom does its part. Afterwards, the bunch leaves, one wasp carrying the goat to the hive.
A few hours later, one bee returns, dropping off another jar of honey.
>>3223079
It's a wasp's natural instinct to fuck shit up, and now they were even offered a huge reward for doing so!
A swarm of 500 assembles and makes their way to Meadton, taking a longer route to hide their origin.

>>3223254
The Uwuin agree, but point out that he requires the barrels of acid on board or at least one of them as due to their Unique diatary needs he needs to drink that and if served water he'll die.

None of the Slave on board carry any desiese. What the gorgon might find interesting are the few Tanigaki on board. Which are an albino very humanoid looking reptilian species.
(like Krill from the Orville)

On board there are no animals or plants except already prepared Tapa'tapa Schrooms.

>>3223267
... well yea, but what does she say after hearing it?

>>3223273
She thanks the Uwuin for sharing his knowledge with her before informing him that it is time for her to rest and he may return home for now.
Once back on the surface, he is given as much honey as he is able to carry back home.

>>3223267
By the time the wasps reach the town, Tens of thousands of men are camped outside, surrounding it. They quickly take notice, and man defensive positions.

>>3223296
Like a child not caring about a Kinder Egg's chocolate until they got the toy, the wasps frankly ignore the army and go straight towards attacking the townspeople, starting from Meadton's center.

>>3223337
wasps truly are, tiny (tho these ones are big), flying, assholes

>>3223337
The men quickly take notice, and begin to fire their crossbows, muskets, and some mages even lightning magic, which arcs between wasps, cooking them from the inside out. While it takes more bolts to kill a wasp, then bullets, the accuracy can’t be underestimated as artificed bolts set wasps alight, begin to dissolve their exoskeletons and freeze them, sending them plummeting to their deaths.

On the ground, the fight is much more even for the massive wasps, as their stingers pierce through steel armor fairly easily, and mandables snap at limbs, occasionally severing them. The soldiers, for their part, do fight back. Hacking and stabbing at exposed leg joints, thoraxes and antenna, which when cut send the wasps into a frenzy attacking anything within the immediate area around them. Someone spills a barrel of sweet-wine, which draws in some wasps...

>>3223449
Roughly 80 of the remaining 150 wasps end up gathering around the spilt wine, while the other 70 enjoy whatever food was served in peoples' homes they got access to. Completely ignoring their surroundings, they'll now only attack when provoked once more.

"Drawing a line between god and 'godlike' is like classifying unimaginable power, a fine intellectual exercise, but ultimately irrelevant. The concept that gods cannot coexist is a uniquely Uwuin'taipan idea. If you would like to argue the definitions of 'omnipotent' we can certainly do that."

>>3223501
The soldiers, seeing the wasps not actively trying to kill them, take the opportunity to escort colonists to the dugout rooms underground in the trenches. The town is left empty for the time being, Company Command staff knowing a sign from their respective God, gods, goddesses, etc. when they see one.

"An Omnipotent creature can do all if there are multiple cretures that can do all it would be plain unnecessary and illogical as 1 would at some point remove all or they would become all.

Meanwhile does a creature which is not omnipotent deserve worship? One which requires worship?"

>>3223623
"Your definition is self defeating, I could come up with multiple logic problems that invalidate it. For example, under that definition and omnipotent being could preform the activity "produce construct of finite weight you are incapable of lifting" any man can do that, but when you apply the same to an "omnipotent" being he suddenly becomes incapable of lifting an object of finite weight. We prefer to use the definition that they are capable of manipulating creation based on arbitrary whims. Which leave them well into the region of "worth worship" which is to say something of equal or greater worth can be obtained, while not necessarily being able to overpower one another.

"Then the same would apply to your own statement on multiplicity, there are always multiple gods and simultaneously only one, in which case all faiths are simultaneously true and false. This idea has long been known in Calderia, and we find the arguments irrelevant, as only measurable results are of importance. We can measure the presence of many different gods so it serves creational purposes to act on that measurement. While we're on the subject, it might be incorrect to translate our respective words as sharing meaning. The misunderstanding could root from a mistranslation."

Dark Clouds gather over all Dornian territories. Purple bolts of lightning dance across the sky as an strange, but all too familiar feeling overtakes all of Dorn. The State does all it can to prepare its citizens for the event, and to gather all knowledge and technology they can, and within a week, it happens.

Simultaneously, all Dornians, from the Fleets, to the Armies to the villages in the forests, along with most of their cities Vanish in a magical maelstrom. Time and Space had fucked with Dorn once again.

They leave behind great trench works, weapons and technologies in what was once their lands. However one thing is left in what was once Toria. The ingredients needed for gunpowder, and a warning to be wary of any magical anomalies in the area. Dorn is gone, and many riches lie in the vacuum.

(Yes, I’m leaving. Yes, I’m a faggot for doing so, but between a lack of interest and IRL collage shit, I don’t have much time anymore. See y’all in the next game.)

OP will now control Dorn.

The Army of the North as it had come to be called was a massive force of eighty-thousand soldiers. It's composition was split between 200 cannon, 55,000 infantry - split 35 to 20 on line troops and fireloqueers respectively, and 25,000 cavalry - split 18000 to 7000 light cavalry and heavy. Unlike most, it was a professional army. Training and drill was a daily task, rigorously enforced by a draconian policy of discipline and punishment. It was rewarded with good reliable pay and solid benefits in addition to free housing off campaign. An enviable position, and one very expensive for the Hands to maintain out of pocket.

Their equipment varied depending on rank and position. Fireloqueers were lightly - if at all - armored. A few wore a steel breastplate or cloth jack. Some had helmets, but most simply wore hats and tabards colored with their unit colors and rank. Their compatriots wielding sword, pike, or halberd, were universally equipped with at least a solid steel breastplate, tassets, and a sloped steel helmet but there the design varied based on the foundry that produced them.

The cavalry was better equipped. The heaviest cavalry were the lancers. They wore a full plate harness of steel. Their Vica mounts were similarly armored. The large raptors were encased in articulated steel plating on the front and flanks, but jointed as to leave their terrifying claws and mouths free for use. Both vica and rider were further protected by a wrapping of healing cloth around torso, limbs, and crown. Should they be wounded and not immediately killed they would recover from their wounds in time to see service in the next battle. Equipped with: lances, swords, maces, axes, and explosive scrolls their offensive output was terrifying.


A major advantage of thew New Model Army was an emphasis on maneuver, combined force drill, and strong support elements. The expedition traveled with a mobile hospital equipped with plenty of healing wrap for serious injuries. It had its own quartermaster and food was stored in specially made containers to ward off rot and plague. No expense had been spared.

The force that went south to intercept the Dornish advance had several advantages. The biggest was in communication. The army was well aware of Dornish positions and troop strength from extensive scouting, and their settlement and observation of the coast gave them a good idea of where to pin the Dornish to the best advantage of the more mobile Sarinthian army. The general battle plan was to take advantage of the Dorn's inability to defend their flanks or supply lines without any cavalry. Light cavalry will take a circuitous route around the Dornish army, and awaiting word on scrying mirror, will prepare an assault on the supply and baggage trains. The infantry will work in coordnation with the light cavalry to halt the Dorn advance and drive them close together for the cannon to take their toll. When the Dorn begin to try to dig in, hit them with a concentrated charge.

>>3224071
Gay nigger

>>3224096
If the Dorn manage to dig in before, or if the army commander feels that they have not been put into sufficient disarray by infantry and artillery fire, then there may be a decision made to simply starve the Dorn out. The superior numbers and cavalry of the Elves mean that they can pin down the Dornish infantry and prevent them from leaving in good order, and with their flanks crushed by the cavalry the entire army can simply wait them out while intercepting supplies and relief forces.

>>3223269
They didn't find anything that infect ERS;they only found pale reptilian slaves. People still practice slavery? That is so ancient history. Besides the weird request for a barrel of acid to drink, the Bugs were clear to port in Laméise to meet Congress
"No weapons are allowed in the city. May Reqin paved your path." The bugs were sent to the Congressional Building.

>>3223873
Bugs, Humans, and now flying towers? The Gorgons have completely given up hope of normal foreigners. A message sent by scout on a winged horse to the biggest tower.

"You are trespassing on ERS territory. State your buisness. We already bug people to deal with."

>>3224143
The robed man makes a gesture of peace, "I must apologize for the fright, this is, as absurd as it must sound, the least alarming way I could've arrived. You mentioned bugs, I know how much of a pain they can be to deal with. We only wish to establish trade, perhaps after we demonstrate that a great stone monolith won't have to accompany each shipment, we thought that stepping through a Fae gate on the way in would be quite startling.

>>3224194
"Very well. Please...*gestures at the towers* go to Reqin Island to the south so you made be processed and clear for an audience to Congress. They are busy with bugs first so please be patient for your turn." By Reqin! Will Gorgons ever have peace again? The Cyclops were much bearable and enjoyable.

The Uwuin ship-captain and a few of the better-looking slaves would go to the Congressional building.

"Greeting to you little Soulless ones of this nation. We stumbled uppon this land while exploring the sees arround ours. We've come to trade and if you don't mind spread our faith."

We have Churches there, many believers and heroes who served in the Crussade.
Even the non-religious folk would probably see it "Who better to currently lead the nation than the men who outnumbered 100:1 survived a war in hell and ended it with mutual peace?"

In the Dorn core continental land a huge push happens to put the people of the 400 in office as heads of the new council.

> Action 2: Relations with the Golden Republic
The nation now prospers after the crussader money came in, but the Doge reports that there are people who might wish to seceede to the neighbouring nation.

A natural migration of loyalist West Calderians takes place into the lolands arround Ukuru to create working farms and possibly swey the vote and demographics in the future, in addtion small amounts of Salt are shipped regularly to the nation as a token of good faith and so to-say "tax" for using their port in trade..

General messages of loyalism and being appreciated by the Uwuin'taipan are blased all over the nation.

>>3223811
"The Church of the One True God has condemned the self proclaimed "Chosen of the One True God" as heretics after their first attack.

The Diplomat returns to talk to the queens with something interesting. Two sets of armor made out of bronze and heavily enchanted and tailor mde for the Queens.

He wishes to continue the talk from a few days ago as he got distracted and started talking about the faith in general not the issue thhey came here with.

Fèlix told them that the Bugs would p call them "Soulless Ones". How very rude! Just because they were politicians, it doesn't mean they don't have souls. It must be a religious custom. Ignore this transgression;they another group to deal with later.

"Yes, welcome to our land, sirs. Trade might be considered if you have desirable resources but for spreading your faith. It is not permitted. We are conent with our god Reqin and the people are in a bit of religious frenzy due to a giant wave damaging our northern port."
>>3225576
Bug people were one thing, now flying towers? Sometimes Trade and Customs overseer Demos wish they close their borders. The flying tower lands and out comes its owners.
*in a obvious bored and rehearsed tone*
"Welcome, strangers, to ERS. You are be detained for a day while we examine you for diseases and undesirable plants, animals, and materials. If you agree to these terms, you will provided supplies for the duration of your stay. No weapons of mundane or magical effect are allowed in the city. Have a wonderful stay."

>>3226172
The Bug seems to not understand the logic of being content with their God if he let's a huge wave hit their shore, but the giant bug does not say anything.

"We have many trade goods. Magic scrolls, Acid, Gems, Salt, Stone, Bronze, Enchantment services as well as our local cuisine."

>>3226172
"Ooh, fancy!" The Sorcerer enthuses. "Of course, I wouldn't expect anything less. Please, come in, I'm sure you're going to want to ensure we don't have any doomsday rituals prepared in there."

1. Land Development

The Sarinthian lands have largely remained the same for the past 100 years. The construction of the Grand Canal has linked the placid shores of Lake Elune with the Silent Sea and out further to the Northern Ocean. What happens now in Sarinthia over the course of the next ten years is a combination of resettling the North with Elves, restoring the surviving Northmen population to a semblance of security in Coldport and its surrounding areas, and building up general infrastructure across the now expansive nation.

The infrastructure deal includes roads between larger towns and their surrounding villages. Farms are updated with new tools. Loggermasters with a vested interest in maintaining a high supply of rice, spices, and processed cattle products, spread the knowledge and supply of preservation spell paper to many farming communities. Food and milk that will not spoil for months replaced food and milk that spoiled in days. With the issue of spoilage solved from the source the population could continue it's upward explosion and outward migration. The Northmen were treated to Sarinthian luxuries for the first time. Beef, milk, butter, spices, and honey were all readily available in Sarinthian cities. Sarinthian cavalry patrolled the roads, keeping banditry down to the lowest point it had ever been.

Of special interest was Irontown. The sudden eruption of a calm, but still dangerous volcano, in the mines outside the city had rendered much of it unusable. The armories were evacuated, and surprisingly few people died outside of an entire shift in the mines and the distinct the iron was processed in. It was a hard loss, particularly for the Ironmistress who lost the seat of her Sarinthian power base. Metal production in Sarinthia dropped precipitously until the other mills in the east and in Ebonhawke could pick up the slack. Iron came in from other mines and soon from the north as well as their own mines were restarted.

2. Ship development
The Northmen and Dorn left behind interesting ships. We should learn lessons from what they have made to create our own ocean-going navy. The longships of the northmen are fantastic for the Silent Sea and Canal traffic, as they are sleek, light, and can move easily over the shallower canals. The Dorn had fierce ocean going vessels of enormous power but slow speed. Those would make for good trade and warships on the open ocean. We try to learn how to make both types of vessel.

2.The ruins were certainly interesting but you must move. A large number of construction workers and artists went to the south to restore and remodel the ruins into something worthy of ERS. It took some time with all the clouds, rain and tall buildings but in the end, it was a beautiful city mixed with the previous occupants' and Gorgon aesthetics. It was named Cielnas.

>>3226187
Acid? No need for now. Salt? Sounds interesting though they get salt from the sea. Gems? A boon to get different types of them. Stone and Copper? We have plenty of stone and Cyclops have copper.

"Hmmm, gems and salt are the most desirable i this instant. For now, we will trade for just those things. What do you wish in return? We have iron, variety of fruits/herbs, statue commissions, cows and for trading."

>Brass smelting
>Cyclopean Clockwork (#2)

After many tests trying to fuse the various kinds of metals the cyclopes had available, success was finally found in a blending of zinc and copper. This new metal alloy had a wondrous sheen and interesting acoustics. It was also easy to work with, but capable of holding its form well. Brass soon became a popular material for all sorts of products: ranging from housing furnishings, to tools, to personal accessories.

With the discovery of this new, easy to work with material, as well as work being done on creating an optical scope to see small, close things, further development went in creating clockwork. Still sometimes struggling with their big hands and tiny pieces, the clockwork artisans would soon master their crafts after staying weeks straight obsessed with the concepts of gear ratios, springs, sprockets, levers, pins, and other such components. While still few in number, these masters would hone their craft to an unknowable degree.

>>3226355
"Very well. On this day, trade is established with your kind. Salt for herbs. Have a pleasant stay, good sirs. Bailiff, bring in the next audience."

>Diplo with Uwuin 'taipan
The Uwuin boat had managed to land in a relatively out-of-the way cove of the island, east of the Proving Grounds. They'd managed to get to rebuilding, and were nearly done with repairs when they were finally found.
Two Primes, going farther than normal for their daily jog, stumbled upon an alien sight. Some giant craft similar to a whale, but hard and metal lay, in the cove. This must be one of those "BO-ATs" that have been seen coming in and out of Companous. The Primes were further removed from the rumor mill that circulated the island, only hearing bits and pieces from the haulers they bullied into delivering goods to the Proving Grounds. But what the rumors had never mentioned was the existence of giant crabs that walked on two feet. A single one of the giant crustaceans was standing outside of the craft, delegating a bunch of tiny-men that swarmed over the craft.
The two Primes bickered about what to do:
>"Should we inform the Primarch? It looks big and dangerous."
>"She's been wanting a new challenge, but..."
>"What?"
>"I want to wrassle it!"
>"That thing looks like it has natural armor, and a bunch of tiny-men that could swarm us."
>"We just barrel through the tiny-men, just like a herd of sheep. And that's exactly why I want to wrassle it, it looks like it could put up a fight."
>"Yeah... it could put up a fight. The Primarch wouldn't care about it if it isn't a threat."
>"Exactly, we should see how good of a challenge it is first!"
Suddenly, from the edge of the jungle, a pair of giant 20ft (6m) tall cyclopes brimming with muscle and the barest of sheepskins for clothing rush the boat. They move with purpose, low and fast, like when they charge one of the rhino-tigers. The men on the boat start feeling the earth shake under their feet. The men on the ground have to dive and run out of the way, lest they get stomped or thrown aside by the charging giants. The cyclopes pay the tiny-men no mind, tunnel vision focusing solely on the crab-man.

The tower was far from discreet. Gracefully touching down on the shores by Seculous, the resident Seer called for a few to follow him to see what it was about. After an hour of arguing, drawing straws, and gentle encouragement, a small band of cyclopes were convinced to follow him. As always, they brought a sheep along with them as an offering.

When they got to the base of the tower, there was already a little activity surrounding it. Strange, small men were exiting the strange tower and scouting around. They quickly noticed the band of cyclopes standing in the middle of the open. The Seer of Seculous took a step forward and offered a subdued hand in welcome, as the cyclopes craned their necks to look at the tower.

The Dorn prepare themselves for a fight, but messengers arrive with terrible news of their capital being attacked and destroyed. While they would be heavily skeptical of the island simply "disappearing" commanders decide to retreat to face whatever threat is truly attacking their island, Northlund can wait.

The army swiftly packs up what essentials they need, leaving behind supplies they deem unimportant as they head west with spearmen on their flanks and crossbowmen peppering the Elven cavalry.
They head to Northeastfort and would attempt to occupy and defend there until either ships can be sent or more information sent to them.

While a few of the 140 crusade survivors could be candidates for the council, chaos washes over the realm and there is no time to handle such things until order can be established.
For now, Cordova is named capital and a temporary council lead by the cities lord and village mayors is created.

The life of the Emi begins to improve but most will never forget the actions of the Uwuin as well as the recent influx of migrants.

The Captain organising the slaves outside the boat pays little attention to his surroundings as he knows they need to get out of this island as quickly as possible. There could be natives and this could be cause to a massive diplomatic crisis.

Suddenly the slaves started screaming... and there the crisis arrived. The slaves are used to evading 6m abominations and it's not like the Cyclops want to harm them so except for minor scratches there are no injuries.

The Uwuin Captain noticed 2 attackers close by one in the front and the second one moving behind him. As the one in the front hits him in his face, he throws of the white cloak behind him on the suplexing Cyclops and uses minor sun magic to make his body shine for a second giving off blinding light as he throws his glave asside.

He uses the distraction of the Cyclops to move in and attack the creature with a hit to the bottom of the jaw.

As soon as they heard comotion 2 other Uwuin would run out and subdue the Cyclops struggling with the cloak, while the captain would intensely stare at the Cyclops as this would be the first time encountering a fleshy one as big as an Uwuin.

Their first impression of the Cyclops is as a primitive, agressive and ferocious species.

>It is a cold land, but not desolate, the inhabitants have formed it in their image and live in harmony with it, as it is their image.
>A highly efficient culture, distant descendant of humans, having left the great cultures at the beginning of time, displeased with the inefficiency of the cultures of the time they set across the endless ocean in hopes of finding land to start their own culture. For the sake of efficiency everyone is taught basic algebra, literature and common magic(such as closing cuts and mending small tears, to being able to light a candle with their finger), beyond that they are put into specialized schools based on their future careers(such as wizards and seers, druids to assist with the Management of the surrounding environment, scientists to maximise the efficiency of the surrounding interment, fisherman, lumberjacks, jewelers, blacksmiths, architects miners, soldiers etc.). their chosen career is what they will most likely follow for the rest of their lives. Some dabble in other sections of work beyond their own assigned job, but it rarely becomes more than a hobby. Outside of work life is more chaotic, they believe that in matters of importance it must be efficient but their lives are not that way. They enjoy the chaos of the world and causing it without harm to others is something that is quite enjoyable.
Also, they have slowly adapted to there world around them, the harsh environment of the north has left them with resistance against the cold and skill at traveling the woodlands and ocean. They all have an affinity for some part of the world, that being the trees the ground or the sea. The way this manifest varies for every individual, some feeling that the land must be conquered for rapid development while others believe in nurturing it so it can yield better fruits in the future. Overall these 2 mentalities have made peace with each other with the natures of the land coming into a section to revitalize an area after the strippers of the land have taken about 40% of the previous resources from that area. At a time of conflict more resources may be taken from an area.

We were talking about it on the discord while you were still there. Held it to a vote to see if all your area disappeared, all your people got rapture'd, or if just the central island poof'd away.

We figured just the central island made the most sense, as that was what originally warped into this world, it'd make sense for just that small area to warp back out. Plus having literally all of your people just leave the game would be both really silly, and be fairly lame to all the people you were currently acting with, ie Uwuin and Sarinthia mainly.
That way they don't just lose out on a bunch while you quit, and you still get your main people and capital out for another game in the future.

The Gorvak had been searching the waters for some time, and after being turned around by the mysterious storm around the surrounding area, the ship approaches an island which appears to have a mountain. The dwarves decide to build a settlement here as they make some repairs to the ship, resupply and figure out where they are so that they can return home, but for now, they make use of what the brought with them including their goats to breed and dig into the mountain and make shelter there in the new home they call Dunzkat.
>New Settlement

The Dorn struggle to reassemble order in their nation. Cordova tries its best to reform the council but soon more ambitious men take this incredibly rare opportunity.
Across the islands and continental holdings, people rise up and recruit members to their cause in attempt to form a new government.
Wealthy and respected lords attempt to convince others of their divine right to rule, attempting to form a monarchy.

Civilization/Race Name: The Entomantic Conclave/ Modified Humans
Capital Name: Talza
Brief Summary of Nation: A group of Mages with a passion for Biomancy and entomology (Insect studying).
Optional Fluff: In Talza, The City of Chitin, resides a group of so called Entomancers. These men use magics to shape and create insectoid life to use as they please. Even their city is technically on the back of a giant, legless beetle created with a ring of chitin that would regenerate itself if harmed. From labor to medicine, everything is gathered, produced by, or made from insects. Their human population is content, with most manual labor done by servant bugs, and Human War Leaders having living armor and weapons grown in or on them with the help of mages skilled in grafting Human flesh and Insect Chitin.

1. Diplomacy

Now that the Dornish government has all but collapsed, it was time to possibly end the conflict before it really went any further. If nothing else, it may be possible to divide the existing colonies. We could fold them and what Northmen territory we give them into one single province lived in and administered by Paleos so we don't have to deal with them anymore.

It was realized that this would likely need to be done through a combination of political, economic, and military incentives. The new colonies, especially the northern ones, would be hard pressed in food, medicine, and personnel given how new they are. The southern colonies, more Uwuin than Dorn, were de facto independent before. Perhaps against the better judgement of some, new diplomats were dispatched to Northeaston to hash out a peace arrangement that would leave the new Republic susceptible to political maneuvering. If they could manage it, they would turn the northern provinces of the new republic into a puppet state to defend their flanks.

2. Claim Northerner Territory
Plenty of territory left is unclaimed by the Republic or the Sarinthians so that needs to remedied. Take the remaining Jarldom hexes.

The Sarinthians during their development campaign at least around coldport would find it to be much swifter, with large tendrils to help with rebuilding and an undead army that some who have lost limbs or been injured in the volley too much seem happy enough to settle within cold port.

As such, cold port may be built up faster noticably and now likely houses an undead population.

The Dorn found their retreat cut off. Now with even less supplies than before, they faced a massive force of Cavalry that swarmed around them, peppering them and harassing them with arrows. If the army was fool enough to engage the cavalry simply broke off until they tried to regain the order to move. If detachments of spearmen or crossbowmen were sent to stop them, it was easy enough for the vastly overwhelming force of cavalry to simply surround and eliminate stragglers while the main body of the mobile force kept the Dornish pinned and down slow. Eventually, no more than a day or two later, the main body of the Sarinthian heavy cavalry and forward infantry elements would arrive to do battle as well. Those units would follow a similar battle plan to the first. Keep the Dorn pinned down and slowly pick them apart until they wavered enough for a decisive heavy cavalry charge. Eventually retreating toward the coastal colonies would be simply impossible given the nature of the cavalry's mission. They would either be forced toward Meadton and picked apart piecemeal, or turn to fight and be overrun.

with the iron mine the narsics begin to forge new engines, they began to tinker with gears and the like to create all sorts of contraptions, it's not long before they began to make machines to assist the miners in their endeavors.

The Elven commander arrived the following day after the surrender of the Dornish Army. The two commanders sit down to hash out a surrender arrangement. The Dornish command would be allowed back into Pikkfort, but the fortress would be surrendered to the Elves afterward. The Elf impresses on the commander the futility of resistance but expresses that provided the terms are met the Elven army would not loot the cities or towns and that all surrendered soldiers and civilians would be free from harm. The Elf expresses that the Dornish and Northmen should have their own territory in the north as an ally and that if the Dornish commander would deliver to the Elves the northern colonies and Pikkfort, that he may be the person to lead this new state after the Elves had taken it. With Elven advisers, of course.

The two may come up with a plan to infiltrate the fortress, using Elven soldiers dressed in Dornish uniforms to ensure that even if the fortress refuses to surrender that it can be easily taken. The rest of the then defenseless north following along soon afterward.

If the Commander is unwilling to be turned into an Elven puppet, or refuses to surrender the remaining Dornish fortresses in the north the entire army will be rounded up and marched north.

Then given to the Eldritch Church. We don't need anymore Paleos.

Worker Bugs: Walking on short, stubby legs, these 3ft tall bugs who aren't made for combat. The arms on their backs are used to carry materials, such as eggs, lumber and other such thing. Most work, like digging and woodcutting are preformed with their sharp, shovel like front claws.

They did! They finally did it! Like the legends of old, a statue was given life! It took much blood, sweat, and pain but they found a ritual to breathe life into inanimate constructs. One of the first beast created was a winged monster called a gargoyle. They were made to guard important buildings and keep an eye on the streets. Vicious creatures who will tear asunder any who dare trespass.
>2.Something to Write About
For most of the time, Gorgons wrote on stone tablets to make lists, record history, and so on. But over the years, the stacks of heavy tablets were getting taller with less room to store them. One day in a forest near Gateau, Gwenaël, a boy who loved exploring nature, was playing and looking for interesting animals. He wanted to write down what he saw every day so he could remember but the stone tablets were too heavy and made too much noises when chipping on them;scaring the animals. While picking pieces of fallen wood, he found out if the wood was smooth enough, you could write on it with ink! But it took forever to write. Gwenaël took some wood to his father and asked him if he could make the wood easier to write on. Böily was a lumberjack but he worked as a alchemist on the side. He wasn't sure how he'll do it, but he was determined to make his son happy. Experiment after experiment, it ended in failure but that didn't detered him from stopping. After a while, he figured it out. He smashed wood into a pulp, mixed in water and a special chemical mixture, press out all the water, dry it and then cut the dried pulp into thin sheets. By Reqin, he invented paper!

(Both Dorn and Rat quit... just fucking kill me. No allies in this world.)

> Action 1&2: How to kill a God >>3227076

Human with pointy Ears, overly long lifespans. Wreched cursed creatures... it all makes sense. The Elves in the South believe in a Sun God while those in the North-East in Gods of Sun and Moon. This clearly makes the Sun one so ancient that the two groups venerated that one before they even split appart. The magic patterns from when the magic crystal exploded are compared to magic patterns of 'blessings' which the Sun Elves claimed to have during our early diplomacy... it's a match.

Preparations are made. While we did not rot out the worshippers of the Sun God, we did learn it's ancient history and posess the physical remains of his former emissary to the mortal plane, King Rekat.

The 60 Sarinthian refugees which survived Orthas's rebellion are breainwashed with their memmories reverted to the state before Orthas. They are 'permitted' to build a temple to the Sun Twingod it is set close to the Tyrany border. The temple is made out of wood which was bought but never used still during the times of Orthas's uprising.

Soulgranted humans bring the remains of Tyrant Rekat (some bones) and put it on the altar. His retinue of 40 (with some Dwarf bone mixed in) would be placed below the altar.

The Humans would leave and chain up all the exits to the temple with the Sarinthians inside.

People from across the faith would be invited to a religious event. Obviously the Doge of Emi and his crussaders, King Cian of West Calderia and any of the Dornian Crussaders which would want to come.

After weeks of starving and suffering inside the Church would be set afflame with brightly burning remains of Rekat being the last thing to burn up. Out of the blackened earth, flaming chains would start emerging as every believer of the faith present would be chanting to make them do so.

They would spread over the ground expading the burned area and then reach into the sky. The Godslayer Tower can be felt resonating with the spell. The chains would extend into heaven as if piercing the sky itself with the spots they pierced emmiting radiant heat.

Suddenly they would tighten as they wrapped themselves arround the deity and pulled him to the moral realm. The Sky would shatter as if it was a wall of glass and the diety would be dragged to the earth chained up, while a huge rift in the sky would eminate intense heat.

>>The Kamadani Cyclopes

>OverSeer Training
>Cyclopean Clockwork (#3)

The Council of Singulous was the original administrative group for Kamadani. It served its purpose well enough, managing the trade and logistics of all the small villages scattered around Singulous and the island. Unfortunately, as population expanded, villages got farther and farther away from Singulous, and eventually the creation of new trade-towns that needed there own councils, the Council system has grown weaker and more inept. More and more cyclopes ignore the summons to join the Council, leaving the current members on board far longer than they wish. With so many resources flowing around now, it becomes harder and harder for the cyclopes on the council to care about every single detail that doesn't interest their hobbies. Finally, because it is just normal cyclopes on the council, their ability to properly command with authority is severily lacking, meaning some more stubborn cyclopes simply don't listen to what is being ask of them.
The Seers were originally intended to take over the role of administration from the council, and now that particular aspect is being realized. While not in service yet, many Seers are being trained to act as OverSeers, Cyclopes capable of running a town and working together to see everything runs more smoothly on the island.

Clockwork continues its developments. Now that things have been properly miniaturized, work is being done to make more and more complex machinations. While still more niche than other hobbies, clockwork grows in popularity as a hobby.

Thus the Uwuin make a mistake, an error that has grevious consequences. Lizzy the right hand of the rebirther is called forth. Upon a tendril of the rebirthers they are brought forth to the highest of peaks.

They are brought forth with a trembling in their heart as from high above on the mountain tops, they see what has become of the sun. Of the golden orb in the sky suddenly and inexorable changed.

Stilling the undead's thoughts, before a twinge of fear, a clarity of sorts enters their eyes. As tendrils wrap around, pierce her body and she is pulled forth into the depths of her god.

With just a scream, For but a moment rendered free of the ceaseless worship they've had over the years. Confronted with the terror of being pierced, being grappled and then?

With a sickening crunch, her thoughts go dull, her body goes slack and something new begins.

With that finality, a fell chorus leaves Elizabeth's throat, a hearty chuckle echoing alongside it and the rebirther channels itself well and truly.

People cease what they are doing, to the point of letting themselves be killed if they were in combat and they scream. Like lunatics anywhere and everywhere they may be found.

Screams of joy, of primal instinct and of most of all victory. As something opens within that rift, as a domain is seized

The hour, the time of Rebirth is inevitable~

I am carrying a life inside me as well right now, trust me it's not so bad. I bet though that their souls not cry out in their afterlife seeings as what they carried has been killed. Brother, please don't do anything rash. The King will be back in a bit, then you can talk."

>>3230272
"Moraine, you and I both know that not all monsters are irredeemable. But these things, they cannot coexist with us. Not through any fault of mine, the theocide demands the death of our gods, their physiology demands the death of our lands. Even the worst of daemons in the Pit are not so destructive."

>>Diplo

Sarintha is greeted quite simply by someone flying down. Feet arched and moving to land, gleaming armor softly shimmering, veins of lavender, of purple eldritch blood.

A head without a true face and with a long white mane, strips of flesh gleaming and sparking with sheer power. It lands, the wind almost trembling in It's presence.

Standing upon the docks, as undead rush over to fall to their knees and pray, some children gasping and sputtering before doing the same. Low inaudible mutterings and then a pulse of energy as a message is delivered across the city.

>>"I have ascended, I have been truly rebirthed. I was Lizzy, right hand of the Rebirther and now. Now I stand here in a perfect form, as Elizabeth consort of the Rebirther, elven friends, the time of rebirth is upon us all, the rebirthers work is clear as day, join us, stand beside us and bask in the reward of such friendship that we can have~"

An offer extended, a hand held out for a leader, for someone to come out to the docks and shake. An expectation, will they prove themselves as the rebirthers friends?

>>3230284
"It has been millenia since they expanded their land and while a world filled with acid frightens me as much as anyone... so does them one filled with water. If I see any intention of them trying to expand I will support you, but I don't.

Brother... our Gods. Do you like them? They demand betrial and bloodshed. You see what that faith has done to Calderia. An attempted coup every week, people being burned alive for no reason. Look at this country, people live free... or at least freeer. The Uwuin are not different to humans, some are monsters and some are kind. Also brother I know you house one too... a creature inside you no different or worse than an Uwuin hatchling. You're the avatar of one of the gods aren't you?"

>>3230317
"Is that really what you see, looking at what I've built. I've made peace and you see sacrifices. I hear the whispers and you think they control me? Girl, they are the outsiders! IT IS THEY WHO DO NOT BELONG!" He takes a breath. "Moraine, please, I don't want to loose you."

>>3230341
"I don't want to loose you either brother... but I don't want to loose Cian either."

She becomes silent for a while maybe even desperate, takes a few deep breaths and continues.

"I know it does not controll you brother, but so I know it does not controll Cian. Let's keep the status quo at least for now. A bit more at least, I don't want to bring my child into a world torn by war."

>>3230365
"…There may be no choice, but I will leave it in Cian's hands. If there is one thing I cannot allow, it is a theocide." He turns around and walks away.

>>3230315
the elder looks at the disturbance at the sky spits on the ground and says that those fuckers are fighting again, The island continues under the softer menacing glow of this new sun, uncaring or unmoved by its presence. Gawking would be inefficient.

>>3227088
As the miners dug into the mountain, they would find caverns of various gems. However, within some of the farther reaches, deadly scaled beasts prowl.

>>3230315
The Elves are confused by Lizzy's sudden appearance from the sky. They shrug and continue on with their day. Lots of odd shit keeps happening, but absolutely none of it seems like any of their business, and they don't really understand any of it anyway. They are hospitable though, and Lizzy is treated to a nice teriyaki beef dish with rice and fresh vegetables.

>>3230476
Liz-Elizabeth is silenced to a large degree at the food, at the gifts that were brought forth. They consume it in what appears to be a strange way.

Their mouth, a hint of an old face contorting and distorting and showing through, before their head returns to something...akin to Lizzy again.

Eating quickly, before their face and head shift again. The being, Elizabeth taps a nearby citizen and asks for simple directions to talk to someone in leadership.

Seemingly a little embarassed.

Action 1: The People of Tarn know of the basic metals of the Earth. They know of steel and gold and electrum, how the nations far wealthier than themselves adorn even their paving stones with materials of unimaginable luxury. And yet, they have never seen anything quite like the substance leaking out of the walls of the tunnels they have just constructed. It's flows like water, yet shines like silver. When a metal touches it, it absorbs like a sponge to water. And most curiously of all, when they stare deeply into it's surface, they can catch glimpses of the other tunnels, even when separated by miles of solid rock (Discover quicksilver)

Action 2: The People of Tarn possess a few of the inquisitive sort. They attempt to befriend the deadly scaled beasts, putting out offerings of raw meat to accustom them to human presence. (Domesticate beasts)

>>3230460
> Action 1&2 to kill a God
The gathered armies keep the captured diety at bay. The main component in this is the hero Cian as both a Great and Soulgranted he is the only present creature rivaling the fallen God in power.

Meanwhile the 4 high Priests manifest the presence of the tower. The giant tower inspire of being an astral projection would be possible to see as a giant spear of light in the sky. It would pierce into the Sun God. The God dies, the only True Death of a God.

> Lore
In the underground just to kill the Tanigaki Gods the Uwuin'taipan had to fight wars lasting more than 50 000 years. As for when a God died he would be reborn from the prayers of his believers. As such it was an endless battle against an immortal enemy. One eventually won, but at the cost of the collapse of the nation.

> Result ( >>3227646 >>3227156 )
After finding out that a God can be revived by the prayers of the faitful the deisgn of the tower came to be. A spell which truly can kill a God for good. The "thoughts" which could potentially revive a God are traced and destroyed.

All monuments, scluptures etc of the God would break appart while paitings, holy books etc would burn up.

Now... Usually the memories of the God would be deleted... just deleted. But due to Eldrich >>3230315 interfering... instead him replacing the Sun God in his spot also replaces the sun God in his spot in the memmories of the believers.

In Other words the Sarinthians would believe a God like Eldrich to be the Twin God to the Goddess of the moon and the Sun Elves would believe it to be their God.

Important to not. Both groups would know something is not right, they would feel like an alzheimers patient seeing their family. As if they lost something very precious and they would know something is not OK.

ADDITIONALLY all races which knew the faith of the Elven races would havet heir memmories changed too to believing that the Elven Faith is the Eldrich one. The only exception I can think to this would be Emperor Gray himself who as an avatar of a God would be immune.

The beasts are highly aggressive and kill anything in sight. Their toxic maws clasp onto prey with enough force to sever the average human in two. They have excellent dark vision and are seen consuming mushrooms or any cavern critters unfortunate enough to come into contact with them.

>>3230048
The Elven commander agrees. The Dornish retreat from the north is acceptable. Their territory down to Pikkfort would be turned over to Elven administration. They are, of course, informed that they are welcome to settle once the territory has been turned over as the Elves forge a new friendly Northlund.

>>3230513
The Divine council, made up of the Dread Emperor (representing the whisperer) the Pit Tyrant, the Shadow King, and the Fae Sovereigns, all know there is something terribly wrong, the deicide has struck. The forces are arrayed swiftly. In less than a fort night, a fleet is loaded up in some Eternian sea, not to attack any Fae shore, but to end the Deicide.

With the Dorn soldiers retreated westward back into their original forts, they are demoralized and disorganized, as would the religious sect further west attempting to form a new government having difficulties as well.
However, on the islands, Dorn lords have both access to wealth, power, and the organization of the islands, allowing some lords to begin to be noticed among the realm and start to gain traction.

>>3230750
King Cian I Nashet while on a boat heading back to West Calderia suddenly hears a mirror buzzing in his pants. It's his pregnant wife frantically screaming into the phone.

"DREAD IS ATTACKING!!! DREAD IS ATTACKING!!!"

Cian does not even have the power to comfort her. The mirror drops on the ground and shatters and he in a futile attempt triest to put it back, but fails.

His desperate expression soon changes into righteous fury as he thinks "Just a few days ago he promised her prace, yet as soon as he came back he prepared for attack."

Cian clenches his chest and uses a pecial "skill" which is a result of being both a Great and High class Soulgranted Sun Mage, it's called 'The Sun King's Roar'.

He screams out into the sky and this message is heard everywhere in both Calderias where the sun shines (he does it during the day, duh)

"Gray! You lying swine. No matter what you do I still don't wish for bloodshed, but if you want a united calderia I propose we do it the old-fashioned way! A duel, hero versus villain, just you and me over the fate of Calderia! SOldiers on both sides I beseech you, put down your weapons. There is no need for there to be more bloodshed among Calderians. In two weeks when my ship arrives I chellange you Gray to a duel to the death, over the fate of a united Calderia!"

The King ends his transmission and hopes both for some common sense on Gray's part and the pressure from both whole countries hearing this to facilitate a duel and for there to be no more bloodshed amongst brothers.
------------------------------------
> Metanote:
I propose we do the duel like this, at roughtly the same time both of us roll a 1d100. Depending which number is higher that one wins the duel. The closer the numbers, the closer the fight.

If I win Cian becomes the Emperor and my faith the official state religion. The controll of the nation is handed back to you as it would be plain mean if I ursurped your nation from you over a roll. I just expect you then to RP the new Calderian Empire as a nation freindly to mine as that'd make sense.

If you win all of Calderia is obviously under your rule.

I think both sides want to avoid another slaughter and a duel sounds cool. Obviously who won the rolls describes the battle.

>>3230750
A Fae gate opens in the middle of an acidic lake, then another, and another. The ships come from a world where ideas and things are one and the same. As such, though they look to be made of pale wood, the acid does nothing.

>>3230601
>1. A Show of Strength
With the world seemingly seeking them out, the Gorgons felt scared. They know they're the most cultured of this world but that means nothing if you don't have the power to back it up. Their way could be destroyed! ERS's only ally they felt they could trust were the One-eyes but they weren't sure if they would aid them if enemies attacked them. They didn't want to presume anything. ERS needed to get stronger and fast. ERS began conducting military exercises, building more ships, and so on.
>2.Path of the Earth
Their earth magic was strong but it was slow. It didn't matter if you were stronger;speed was needed too. Mages research a way to meld into the earth and travel through it.

In answer, Calderian forces man the walls about the Spire. Towers hang in the air, waiting to hold the line until the Deicide can be dealt with. Archer Greats from both sides, demons, for whom hellfire is a bodily function, not magic, and the latest spawn of Calderian engineers, manning the finest seige equipment on the continent.

1. Complete the subjugation of the north

The surrender of Dorn's northlund colonies has allowed us to finish by capturing Hillfort, then reorganizing the territory from Coldport south into a new puppet state for our Human subjects to live in. Elves will maintain important roles as administrators and advisers, but the state will provide for itself in most respects and provide raw materials for Elven industry and markets. There will be a large military garrison of about 15,000 spread throughout the northern forts to support the human auxillaries and provide law enforcement for the area.

2. Construct Dockyard
If a new navy is to be created it will need a place to be built. The lessons we've learned from the Northmen and Dorn is that a ship need to be built in a specially made area. We'll build the facilities, staff them with some ugly Paleos too important or smart to ship off to the puppet state, then build large trade and warships to wrest control of the ocean.

>>3227587
The deal is accepted, alongide this the sun elves for pay in a better way both the dwarf effort and dwarf mercenaries propose until the end of the war to buy less dwarf goods.

>Diplo with Uwuin
The boxing-cyclops' head whips back from the upper-cut to the jaw. He stays there for a moment, as if contemplating the sky, before his mouth spreads wide. A shit-eating grin is plastered on his face as he meets the crab-man's stare. A challenge, a true challenge. Oh, the Primarch was missing out. He rolls his shoulder, and charges forth. A right hook, which the Uwuin captain blocks with his own right claw. While the Uwuin blocks his right fist, his left flies in from below and makes contact with the Uwuin's chest, almost lifting the crab-man off the ground. The Uwuin captain takes several steps back to recoup, while the Prime reestablishes his stance.

The grapple-cyclops is none the worse for ware. The Primes don't often have 'fair' or 'honorable' duels. Combat is rough, bloody, crafty, and primal. 2-on-1 or even 3-on-1 isn't too rare, and the ubiquitous pocket sand that litters the Proving Ground's main arena forces many Primes to rely on more than just sight to fight. While still wearing the cloak over his head, the grapple-prime hears the ground shake from the other two Uwuin approach. He performs a leg-sweep to knock down one. Then he crouches, bull-rushes at the other; he tackles the Uwuin at the hip, lifting it over his shoulder, and throws it onto the ground behind him. He then pulls the cloak over his head and drapes it behind his shoulders as a trophy.
While his companion doesn't appreciate the art of grapples, this cyclops understands just how much it hurts for something as big as them to get thrown to the ground.

Similar to Filos, the undercurrents of multiple disembodied voices from translation magic sends the Seer of Seculous on edge. Wringing his hands nervously, the Seer nods when the Sorceress says the word "frightening".
After building up the courage, he finally steps forward, gets onto his hands and knees. Now as close to eye-level as possible, the Seer's deep, quiet voice eeks out: "H-hello... Can we... help... you?"
A second cyclops slowly comes from behind him, and appears to offer a sheep to the strange, multicolored people.

>>3229649

>Diplo with Narsics
The cyclops hardly notices anything around him, as he herds a small flock of sheep off the coast of Solitous. The old man just barely gets his hand on the cyclops' leg, before the cyclops notices him and nearly jumps out of his own skin. The old man managed to get one or two words out; before the cyclops quickly waffles back and forth on his feet, grabs one of his sheep, hands it to the old man, and picks up the rest to hurry them on home.
The old man easily sees where the cyclops is headed, and can just make out the presence of what appears to be a circular village at the top of the valley.
Meanwhile, the cyclops runs his way to the plaza of Solitous to tell the Council that a strange tiny-man touched his leg.

Kefalés finally arrives at Companous; she isn't used to stopping so often for the fluff-puffs' tiny legs.
Completely oblivious to the growing crowd at the edge of Companous, she leads her little herd of fluff-puffs right up to Filos. Now, the Tythians, Gorgons, Cyclopes, and Dwarves are all meeting at the edge of Companous. Thanks to the Tythian tongue-spell, everyone is able to understand each other.
Kefalés, upon realizing so many new people are here, is absolutely gob-smacked, and quickly starts jumping around, staring at people disconcertingly.
Filos, meanwhile, is currently trying not to faint from all the sudden commotion and new faces staring at him.

the old man goes back to the ship and begins to touch every person on the ship. he takes the sheep and some of the fruits and meats brought with them to go to the town he saw. About 15 people ender the town. When they enter the town he bows to every cyclops he sees, offer food and saying we come as friends. He heads to the center of the town to speak to the leader

>>3232007
One of the dwarves pipes up, tugging on Kefalés' sheepskin (or just poking her) and simply asks for some wood to repair their ship, or ale, if the cyclopes have any.

>>3232002
Neira looks at the creature that is brought forward, there is nothing nearly that hairy in her native swamp. Her acute senses catch on to the discomfort brought by the translation matrix and adjusts the formula for more Eternian methods, it takes a bit more of her attention, but a glamour of shared language will be much easier on their host. "Yes, we come to speak of trade agreements. I assume by this creature, part of what you might offer is it's fur?"

Because of the completion of the 2nd Generation Beasts the centralization of the Empire has increased dramatically, but with this development new ideas are spreading, the Alchemists of Hytza have made massive new developments, and out of their ideas have risen two schools, the Yax’bans and the Cha-Ya’potans, the cult of Boron and the Cult of Potassium, these schools of fire are represented by the colors of Green and Purple respectively, as that is what the products of their elements are capable of coloring fire.
The Yax’bans, lead by Petin Xantal have exiled the Cha’Ya’potans of Hytza to Nahuz, as their cult is seen as mildly heretical to the Yax’bans.

Along with the development of these new cults, we must search the Mountains of Nahuzan for any new metals that we can come across, hopefully we may be able to find stores of Bismuth, as the growth of our Magician class must be invested upon, though stores of zinc, copper or iron may also be found to be useful.

Current Population trends by territory:

Hytza-Nohoch: 62,000~ 124,000 (Boronic)

Hytza-Chichan: 33,000~ 84,000 (stabilized)

>Diplo with Narsics
Whatever few cyclopes are in Solitous at the time quickly back away from the procession of strange, ankle touching, tiny-men. The ability to understand them is met with some confusion, especially since they have never reportedly been seen before. As they continue on their way towards the town plaza, a few of the cyclopes bend down to inspect the food offerings.
When the old man reaches the center of town, the Council is waiting for him. The cyclops herdsman he met earlier is quietly gesturing on one of his sheep's hind-legs, trying to show where the old man touched him to get his voice.
The entire council ogles the tiny-ankle-men, and largely seem to be waiting for them to do something. Should any of them get too close, the cyclopes would back away to maintain their personal bubble.

>>3232036
>Diplo with Dwarves
Kefalés, surprised that the fluff-puff men can talk, immediately squeals with glee, and starts introducing herself.
>"Hi I'm Kefalés and I like to pet things especially small fluffy things like you why are you so small and fluffy and what was that thing you came out of is it a boat the gorgons have boats but yours is different why is it different are you gorgons under all that fluff gorgons don't have fluff but their snakes are still fun to pet -"
The dwarves likely lose track of her rambling, and their eyes probably glaze over about half-way through. Able to empathize with the tiny fluff-puff men's feeling of overwhelming sensory overload, Filos is quick to put a hand on Kefalés. After getting her mind back on track, he sends her down to fetch a few trees and some awls.
As Kefalés goes on her quest for friendship, Filos quietly introduces himself to the dwarves. He then asks if they need any help with their boat, or if they would like to dock it in Companous for the time being.

>>3232317
>Diplo with Calderia
The Seer of Seculous looks down at the sheep, then at his own sheep-skins, and then back to the sheep. It never occurred to him to *take the fur off* the sheep. But thoughts for later.
The Seer explains, in his slow and methodical way, that while Seculous is a logistics hub for the cyclops villages in the area, it usually doesn't have *all* the stuff they offer for trade, at least not in the quantities usually desired. Or in a timely manner for that matter. He gestures down the island's highway, to the south west.
>"Companous is... usually where... the Gorgons do trade with us. They have... a dock... you can park your... tower in. Filos... is more used to dealing with... outsiders. He should treat you well,... at any rate. I could send a... messenger to inform him of your... imminent arrival."
>"I hope... you have a... good day?"

>>3229889
>>The Kamadani Cyclopes

>Sheep Pelt Processing
>Gem-tipped tools.

Thanks to the insightful conversation held between the Seer of Seculous and Neira, the cyclopes learn they can do more with their sheep than butcher them for meat and pelts. Two main things come from this: wool and parchment.
Wool is finally sheared off separate from the rest of the pelt, allowing the sheep to live and grow more wool. This results in some cyclopes herdsmen specializing their herds: either fattier and meant for butchering, or fluffier and meant for shearing.
Second, when the wool is sheared off the pelt of a butchered sheep, the cyclopes are able to tan the hide and let it sit out to grow tougher. More resilient than an untreated hide, this sheepskin is soon used as a parchment of sorts, to mimic the kinds brought in for show by the gorgons. While not often used across the island as a whole, the Seers begin to quickly adopt this sheepskin parchment for writing down various scrolls or tomes for future Seers and acolytes alike.

Many cyclopes that work in the mines or with small-scale craftmenship often complain of the quality of their tools. Copper and brass, while plentiful and pleasant to look at, are not necessarily the best to maintain their form over long periods of use. The large collection of gemstones the cyclopes possess are known for their hardness, and since they are not used for much else at this time, some cyclopes begin incorporating these gems into their tools. Picks and axes are able to cut deeper and last longer against the tough conditions. Small-scale instruments; especially needles, tweezers, chisels, and clock-work related tools; also benefit from the ability to maintain a small and consistent point.

As the Grappler Cyclops is carrying away the Uwuin the one he knocked onto the ground uses his glave. Not to cut him, but to swipe at it's legs so it falls down.

(Uwuin have hands now claws)
The boxer and Uwuin Captain keep slugging at each other like mad. Without magic both parties are matched and the Captain seems to be enjoying himself way too much to use it.
