"Agreement is boring!" Look, the nutcase has arrived! "I say we just do stuff. Like saying 'plippy ploppy doggy woggy' very loudly. Yes, that sounds good."

He snaps his fingers and points and the newly arrived wierd looking ... girl? Those were my words exactly, well except for the wierd noices but you know what i mean. Right? He takes a bite of his apple. I do not beleive we have met before, what was your name again? He takes a big bite from his apple, but spits it out again. Oh before i forget! Sooolaiiinee he practically sings.

[Sir Dancealot]

Solaine stands before those she has helped create and inclines her head slightly. "There is one thing you need to know about me, and that is my aspect of Martial Perfection. I have many more, but that is the only one you need concern yourself with. I expect it to be followed perfectly. If it i not, then something shall have to be done about that. Until such a time, I leave you to your co-creator. He's much more lenient than I. Do not waste this gift." She tilts her head slightly as if listening to something far off in the distance. "Ah. It seems that someone requires my services. I leave them to you Baldo." With a thundercrack and a blinding flash of lighting, she was gone.

Elsewhere, on a craggy peak, a twin bolt of lightning scorches the ground, shortly to be replaces by a cacophonous boom and a goddess in torn and blackened armour leaning on a heavy, brutal blade that had been slammed into the ground. "I'm a busy woman. I do hope you aren't here to waste my time."

Done with her rest, Minerva descends once again to the snowy mountains where she had once visited. Spying the remnants of a table no longer in use, she vanished them with a thought No use in leaving a mess around she thought privately.

Then, the woman advanced upon the remaining gods, some of which were still finishing a conversation. Hello again. I apologize for missing the meeting, but I was having a rather enjoyable dinner with the god creating the islands up north. Is there anything important that I missed, or just the usual bickering of gods that have found themselves forced together for another round of our court games?.

Nodding his head slightly to Minerva as she arrives, Oranos agrees. "Twas the usual bickering and philosophical debates. After all, one can hardly expect gods of so many different domains to fully agree. Still, it has been.. enjoyable."

Waste time? Me? Have you even met me Solaine? Any ways i shall get to the point, i want to do some... things, some of my usual non time wasting doings. But you see i am a little... short. He hold his hand low to reprecent short. You know not height of course but on power. And i hear you are lending out power. I need but of sprinkle of power, her rups his fingers on his right hand together but shall pay you back double as soon as i regain my power. Sounds good? He takes a bite of his apple.

He wishes to buy 1 power, for the cost of giving you 2 power next turn.

[Sir Dancealot]

"A sprinkle of power is it? Surely you could do with more than but a sprinkle?" She grins again. Or was she always grinning? "But, if a sprinkle is all you want when I have a Storm, then so be it." She snapped her fingers once, and before her floated a miniature sun, blinding in it's beauty, and burning with intensity. The snow nearby began to melt. With a simple wave, a small bead of light detached from the miniature sun, and floated over to the god. The sun vanished, it's brilliance not even marred for having given up a small piece of it's power. The bead of light bobbed and danced over the god's head, staying just out of reach. Until it was needed of course.

Her eyes glow many colors for a moment. Then she coughs, and the moment ends rather anticlimactically. Or not, depending on where you are.

L9 is now a jungle that rains mild acid. S13 is a swamp where strange, amphibious cats and dogs gently splash into the mire and swim away. M9 is a giant hot chocolate-spewing volcano. One point remains.

Blood boiled behind Oreth eyes. "What do you think you are doing? This makes no sense. You annoying creature. I will set myself against you for the entire life of this realm."

The fire in his eyes ignite as he looks down at the sheer nonsensical nature of what this God has done.

"I would have satisfied myself with just countering your more absurd changes but that volcanoe is just ridiculous. For your impertinence I shall also destroy your other works." As he speaks a meteor forms above his outstretched hand and hurtles toward the jungle

He grabbed the small bead with his hand and absorbed it. Thank you very much Solaine. He bowed to the godess. And now for the fun part. He grinned. He held up his left hand, bending his fingers one by one as if trying to imagine what the hand would look like without it. Finally he bend all but his pinky finger. You have served me well. He said. He snapped with his right hand and summoned a dagger in it. He held the dagger up to the finger. But you are not done serving me yet. He cut off finger in a swift stroke and screamed in pain. The finger plummeted to the ground. But as it fell it changed shape and it landed with a huge splash in the lake made from his blood. Up from the lake came a tall muscular red unclothed figure with big horns. Isn't he beautiful? He said as he stared at the figure. You will have no name yet, but you shall be known as first to revel. He and his creation both smilled at each other. Now go out there and teach them what it means to have fun. He told the creation with a big smile on his face.

Nodding his head slightly to Minerva as she arrives, Oranos agrees. "Twas the usual bickering and philosophical debates. After all, one can hardly expect gods of so many different domains to fully agree. Still, it has been.. enjoyable."

Krysis laughs. "Some of these gods act more like overwrought children rather than powerful deities. I do not see what the point of the discussion was. Clearly we gods will not agree on anything and that is fine with me. So thus begins the war, in which clearly the mortals will be pawns. How very amusing, I should get popcorn and watch the show.

But then, children are easily amused and childish gods are even more amusing."

[GuesssWho]

Medb'adradalsa(click) glares at Oreth. "The universe has never made sense, reality is the creation of a blithering idiot and you need to read more Dickinson!" And she'll just be quoting "Much Madness is Divinest Sense" under her breath now.

"Well if you get bored don't come crying to me."

She sits down on the grass and starts designing creatures that are resistant to acid and meteors.

Krysis watches with amusement the argument between the goddess of rainbows and mad god of lawfulness before commenting: "You are both completely opposed to the other's world view. Clearly there will be no peace of life for any inhabitants to this place with the gods continually removing and replacing creations. Learn to let go and accept that you both have a proper place in this world. Otherwise, I may have to find myself imposing some kind of order, which clearly is needed in some form.

I would have performed gods that didn't act like children, but one must do with what one has."

[Sir Dancealot]

"Good. Evil. Law. Chaos. A series of axes all based on perception. What is the point of any of them really? Every intelligent creature is all of them are they not? Why stick to a specific set of rules governed by your internal law? Does it not make those that desire to be chaotic to be lawful? Is not the lawful simply chaos separated from other forms of chaos? In the end, all that you create will be gone. All the machinations you enact will have meant nothing. But, such is life. And what are gods but the epitome of living?" Solaine mused aloud to the chill air, speaking to no one in particular.

[GuesssWho]

"I'll turn all your temples into statues of spider-riding house cats, see if I don't."

He takes a bite of his apple. Well, ain't this a hoot. Good to see the discussion is back on track. He throws the apple down to the floor and it jumps back up into his hand. It was starting to become a little boring.

Krysis summons coldness from the void and draws it down across the mountains (L7, M8, N9, O10, P11, Q12, R13), where he makes them extremely cold and puts snow/ice on them also adding in trees to grow on the mountain mainly below the snow level.

He plucks a hair from his head and folds it into the shape of a flaming bird. The bird flies down to the First to Revel and says with the voice of his creater The Solumites are too boring, travel to them and introduce a little chaos. He then plucks out another hair and folds it into another bird, no larger than an eye, and breathes on it. He sends the bird off to Solainea and it says in his voice Greetings Solaine, we had a deal, and i always keep my promises. Which is why i rarely make any, but i have made one to you. This bird is the power i owe you. How you wish to claim the power is for you to decide. The bird flies around her head in circles.

With a wave of her hand the madgoddess adds a small lake to R14; a snake eye to go with the tongue. Rainbows of fish and kelp fill it, along with a few islets.

Soon afterwards, a crystalline mountain springs up on L13. Precious gems form interesting patterns along the flanks, and the snow at the top is light blue diamonds.

[russdm]

Krysis laughs. "You have just devalued diamonds permanently."

[Virdish]

"Now this kind of madness I can support" says Oreth

"Money is boring. Gems are pretty."

Solaine simply takes the bird and sets it on her shoulders until such a time is needed. "If you'll excuse me? I have a lot of waiting to do. All of you know my offer. Do find me when you want to be a part of it." Smiling, she waved a throne of simple wood into existence, sitting on it as it slowly accumulated snow.
