And Udil killed all the drakes already, I think?

All but the ones my kids have domesticated/sacrifice.
Not the Dragonborn; the other ones.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

And I doubt your kids will set drakes on him unless he goes through with a localised Armageddon to clear the jungle.

Not sure why we need the jungle to survive, I thought we had grain fields; but ah well.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Said Armageddon theoretically spills out over to their lands? Considering it's essentially causing a massive forest fire...

I'll be helping them move beyond that soon anyhow.

The jungle could provide good sources of wood, meat, and tannery.

Yeah actually that speech probably was a little too IC.  Anyway almost all the gods interested in the squiddles or seaspawn are on good terms with me, either allies or potential allies.  Yeah unifying them will take a long time but it's not an unrealistic goal.  Anyway how exactly am I playing a race?  I'm just role playing one member of a race that feels abandoned by the gods who created him.

[Digital Hellhound]

Why don't I get an ironic death? I guess everybody already knows I'll be the only left alive in the end.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Sabt Golgo- Killed by Udil with a giant power draining web, and being fed to Mirrorborn.

Careful what you wish for.

[javierpwn]

I have an ironic death planned for her.

What are the ironic deaths of everyone?
Azthor- Extinguished
Avarian- All the gods stop fighting each other, only to join together to kill him
Az-sho- Slain by the uprising of the Soultaken, or Udil, or consumed by Azthor's fires.
Udil- Killed by the last surviving Drake
Vanida- Death by sensory deprevation
Aldemas- Killed by undersea volcano illuminating him in the fires of the planet's core

the volcanoes shall now emit black ink, because Darkness Lulz

Also Gman: Apparently you could sacrifice fish blood to me, and it could give me minor acts. But sentient blood is POWAHFUL

Again neither Dwarves nor the Children are in any way reliant on the Jungle. The Children tend vast fields, their own forests of that Embertree stuff and have domesticated the Whipdrakes. Dwarves have plump helmets and trade stuff with the Children...so if the jungle dies all that happens is that the Children get more farming land quicker.

On another note named Dwarves aren't fate-touched they are just minor characters to make the updates more interesting to read...

Spoiler: Not that relevant,, nor usefull (click to show/hide)

This place used to be badlands/ desertlike yeah. And those fields are far inland, I'm correct.

So you could get some problems, because as the Jungle recedes, so does the rain. Nothing unsurvivable, but maybe quite annoying. It might also cause other desertlike tendencies, and maybe even cause a sudden spike in small pests. (As those are the only ones to survive Udil's manual terraforming project.

On the other side, the removal of large predators and herbivores could also cause the Jungle to flourish, as the trees are no longer cut down so often. However, this'll likely result in a gigantic forest fire sometime soon, drowning the peaks in fire and smog. Considering the nature of As-sho and the dwarves, I don't think these'd have a problem with it.

Everything is connected, and stuff should have consequences, but they won't be that grave.

After all, as Ghazkull said, the Jungle was a selfsustaining aborrance (ie, by keeping rainwater trapped in it's own microclimate), and as it collapses will likely return towards an infertile dorren plain. (Jungles are infertile, as all nutrients end up in the trees, and with the water cycle being broken, the inlands should rapidly drie out.)

[javierpwn]

Yup. Desert land bad. No shade for Shades, and a bright sun.(unless night time)

I wonder if Ghaz is doing Traurig's turn.

[Ghazkull]

well but if the jungle dies down wouldn't the nutrients that were created with the jungle make the former badlands more fertile?

[javierpwn]

Most nutrients would be blown away, as "fertile" jungle land is usually less than an inch.
