seeing the disturbance, Cellis formed an avatar next to the spire, a body formed of innumerable small insects that gathered together in an instant.What is the purpose of this structure? it looks like a strong citadel
Erothayce
"I shall do just that esteemed sister."
Gargax
I came to see this odd structure you have built. It is quite magnificent...
Erothayce
Erothayce sat and actively tried to focus on the sounds emanating from the structure to no avail. Next he decided to relax and let things take their course. He slowly began to hear things. It was a whispering in the back of his mind that spoke of the planet and all it had been through and all it wished to be done for it. Erothayce listened rapturously to this voice of knowledge.
Revolts erupt in Alomarra, as well as in the cities of the Ensirex and the Protoss. The rebels want to break free from the authority of the "False Gods".
------------
Meanwhile, the other gods discover that the People of the Sea and Sahuagins have adopted a new religion one century ago. They now worship a being they call the Calamity. In their art, the Calamity is depicted as a giant beast, a cross between a whale and a crustacean.
Ikassi
Magnificent on the surface, yes, however it is what is deeper that is even more magnificent.
Deep underground, it has roots, very much like those of a tree, but far deeper all the way to the heart of the planet. The world is forever moving, talking and seething. This is a means to listen and even talk back to it.
If you wish to send your people here, they are more than welcome, though if they are not ready for the melody of the earth, they will surely fall into madness or death.
Speaking to Cellis
A citadel it is indeed, but it is not one in the normal sense.
Cellis
interested in this new religion, as a god not from the old-world, or even one from the old world that he hadn't met yet, would be very interesting. As such, he decided to attempt and call it.
appearing on a rocky outlet far out at sea( avatar of course) he spoke I wish to speak to the being called the Calamity, who rules the ocean.

Beware the SAHAUGIN!!!
To Cellis
A whirlpool formed in the sea, only a few hundred feet away from the Lord of the Hive.
"Who disturbs me? What sacrifice have you brought to appease me?"
SpoilerOOC: Good one Armin. It fits really well!
Gargax
Gargax gestured to The Changed at his side. What of creatures of the spirit?
-----
The Ensirex brutally work to put down the rebels, and they have the full might of Gargax at their side to aid them. All the undead who served the rebel Ensirex turned on their masters at the will of the Lord of Necromancy, he sent avatars to each of his cities to see the end of the revolts. Those intelligent undead that rose against Gargax were bound to him, their very essence bound irreversibly to the True Liche. The Changed used this opportunity to devour souls, possess bodies, and the most brazen even recruited from the Rebels ranks, adding to their varied cults from those who chose to break away from their masters. Gargax allowed these to escape, for little did they know they truly served him.
Cyrus
Cyrus bows to Ikessi. "Thank you sister. I understand. Tell me, how might I prepare my followers to learn here? You say if they come, they will be driven mad."
Once again, Saradinus appeared into the dreams of followers, this time, not to teach more summoning, but to introduce a new form of magic.. Circle Magic.... Combining magicians could allow them to cast more powerful spells. This would come in handy. (Minor godly act)
Ikassi
To Cyrus
Those who are worthy will already know if they are. Those who wish to be must learn to embrace that which is purely that of the body, mind and spirit and abandon the supernatural, incluiding magic.
It was clear she was referring to the art of the self.
Motioning to the changed.
As for your little spirit friend, ancient one, I suggest that he leave. It is impossible for that which is purely spiritual to have its mind rent asunder, but its very being is in danger as it lies here. The same goes for the unintelligent undead, though those undead that do have minds may attempt the journey.
Cellis
to the Calamity
I bring no gifts, I come as your equal ,and wish to learn of you. All the other divinities I know of are from the fallen world, and wish to know of your story. mentaly he addedand it might fetch a pretty price with the Death-god too.
[ooc]what happened to Severus anyway?[/OOC]
To Cellis
"So, you are one of them... You must know that there was a god of the sea worshipped by the sahuagins and humans before me. Well, I ate him. Don't worry, I don't intend to do the same thing to you or your siblings. Unless you anger me...
My name is Ossua, but the mortals may only know me as the Calamity. I don't care too much about them. As long as they bring me gifts, I am satisfied. As for my story...let's just say that I'm really ancient. You are not the first so-called "gods" I meet."
Cellis
So you are one of our predecessors? the Dragon-imp said that you were all dead, and that the Beast had brought us hear as replacements.
To Cellis
"Not predecessor. We are not alike. I am the Lord of Elemental Water. I am part of this world. You...you are unfortunately living an ephemeral existence.
You spoke of the Beast...this is interesting. Maybe he has brought you here to entertain us."
Cellis
interesting, although I hope you're wrong. I don't suppose you would tell me what you know of your siblings and the Beast? I would be able to compensate you. and if you agree, would you allow me to draw a veil over the area, to prevent spying?
'In other news...
all over the cities of the continent, one or two enlightened traders some in, with goods on created pack animals. They sell books with some of the knowledge of all the minds that It had subsume, as well as foodstuffs and minerals. they sell herbs. It also offers "enlightenment," and offer a payment to anyone of the persons choice if accepted. In each city, one of the traders approaches the ruler and gives them the same offer It gave Alrinach. We will subsume those who have violated the most sacred of you r laws. This saves the cost of incarcerating them for life or killing them. We will also use them for whatever you wish for the first two years after their Enlightenment. one quarter of the bodies will stay in the city, preforming whatever tasks you desire, the rest will do whatever We consider intelligent.
To Cellis
"Compensate me? What do you have that could be of any use to me?"
Cellis
Why do you ask for sacrifices if they don't give you some benefit? Is there anything that could get you to divulge the information?
To Cellis
"I normally accept the sacrifice of sentient creatures. How many souls do you offer me?"
Cellis
one hundred sapient giant ants?
To Cellis
"Very well."
SpoilerOOC: Continues in PM.
"we never intended war against your peoples, and we will be willing to trade goods, but our land is not for sale it is the birth place of our peoples, and the most holy of sites. Would we ask you to give up your queens nest in exchange for material welath? We the Protoss believe land has a spiritual value, and defend it with out lives."
Cellis
Very well, once again, I have no authority over trade, I am simply hear to make sure this colony is safe. If you do wish to sell land, may we have a map of the land you claim, avoid misunderstandings?
"And safe this colony shall be if peace is what it wishes, may I ask how you excavate so quickly? These tunnels are so vast yet you claim that they have only been here for a small amount of time."
Saradinus
Saradinus then begins to utilize Myrokhan the Avatar once more. This time, Myrokhan tutored the people of Teke in wyvern riding.. The wyvern riders learned how to soar in the sky on their non-sapient dragons and keep a patrol over the lands. (minor godly act)
Meanwhile Saradinus spoke as a cloud over the mage towers.... He demanded a report over the affairs of Teke.
Cellis
It was founded in a tunnel complex, and as you can imagine, transmutive magic is popular among us. a few of us can create acid, which helps. as does the large number of worker.
The Protoss examines one of the larger tunnel workers when a idea, and he quicklly made a mental note of it before he got back up, and faced the commander.
"I see, so you are a speices of adaptation, and change.... I will be taking my leave now; please notify your Queen that I have requested a meeting with her to disucss things further."
