[Lost in Nowhere]

I raise my hand.

So, some stone men are rampaging around on... Keshan, isn't it? They're claiming loyalty to Yaos, although completely ignoring everything he's saying.

Yaos, are you sure you aren't going off the deep end?

[DreamerGhost]

Quick version:
Some strange stone wariors apeared out of semingly nowhere and razed three towns. They did three things I absolutely hate, namely 1)Raze large ammount af structures for no reason at all, 2)Destroyed a great number of Golems and 3)They look like caricatures of Golems, and therefore may damage reputation of Golems among mortals. To express my hate for all they are and represent I deployed archangel armed with a nuke on a stick. Yaos is involved to an undiscernable degree with all of this, and I am having a hard dime deciding wether I shoul pity or smite him. First nuke was deployed, desroying great number of stone soldiers and damaging my archangel. When I find out how many Stone soldiers remain in their army, I may deploy more and larger nukes. It was found out that all Stone soldiers are streaming from Human capital. Void is probably involved in all of this.

Darruth rolls his eyes at Fusil's cocky display(pun intended. ), but raises his hand.

[Cptn Kaladin Anrizlokum]

"I'm going to need as many living gods to explain to me the situation."

Well hello! Right now, an army of stoNe meN is rampaging through one of the worlds, razing everything in their path. The are being created by Nothing in the Human Capital, and claim to follow Yaos' every order but ignore most of what he says. Yaos is probably void possesed and creating things without knowing... or knowing but unable to do anything about it.

And I opened a bakery on an island turtle in the same world, and made some fancy trees.

Propose we build a galaxy-sized space battleship with a WMG and a humanoid form that the gods can use to enter the Void and destroy the Nulls within it.

I counter your proposal by proposing you explain your void dealings or we will turn you into a rowboat and send you to fight them yourself. What exactly did you promise them?

[Stirk]

"What if they are obeying Yaos, but simply not following his "Fake, Open" orders? If he ordered them to raze everything, then 'not listen to my false orders', he would be able to tell them anything he wanted openly, while they continue to follow their true orders he gave in secret?"

"What if they are obeying Yaos, but simply not following his "Fake, Open" orders? If he ordered them to raze everything, then 'not listen to my false orders', he would be able to tell them anything he wanted openly, while they continue to follow their true orders he gave in secret?"

I am *this* close to actualy believing this.  But it lacks your assassination to be real, Yaos wouldn't deal with the void on such scale without removing you first.

[Rolepgeek]

Or, of course, literally any other god could have told them to act as though they worshipped Yaos, but not to cease their activities if he told them to. It's a case of Wine In Front Of Me, and there is no obvious answer.

[Kilojoule Proton]

As with all WIFOM situations, the answer could always be that both of the options are right regardless of how much mutual contradiction there would be..

[IcyTea31]

"About what the GodManager just pointed out: when I asked the Null if any of them is responsible for this, and whether they include the Umbrals in 'any of them', the response was both yes and no to both questions. I asked for clarification, but none has been given so far. This is interesting, but not very helpful."

[IcyTea31]

"I now have an answer from the Null. Apparently in the broken spacetime of the Void simultaneity is meaningless, thus two condradicting statements can both be true and false at the same time and the other veracity as well. With our somewhat linear spacetime, reality must collapse into something, and apparently chance chose Yaos to be the one to have created the stoNe meN. Thus, she both did and didn't, in the way that some other being did and didn't do it and reality fixed the causation to have Yaos do it, but that required her to be alive, thus reviving her."

"This is, of course, only an educated guess and/or a crazy ramble, so I may be completely wrong (but possibly also right, withstanding or not)."

[Rolepgeek]

...Of course it is.

Because if anything was actually easy, I might manage to accomplish something.

Bloody hells...

If the Mountwyrms aren't taking the commission for armor-crafting(and yes the church is paying them), offer it to the dwarves instead.

Propagate Seraphim as much as I can for 3 Essence(aka 20,000, or a bit more if I would be able to with that 3 Essence)

Continue spreading word of Good
Listen for any prayers directed to me
Send Templars, once they've been outfitted, to assist in fighting the tide of stoNe meN.

[Ama]

"....So your saying we should destroy Yaos to fix everything."

Gift the Ice Titans much stronger resistence against the sun and send them even farther south to defend from stoNe meN.

[Stirk]

"....So your saying we should destroy Yaos to fix everything.

"I think it is worth a try..."

[Vgray]

Azem listens to the prayers of his followers.

"Nothing is ever simple Goodness. Nothing worth doing anyway."

[Andres]

Yaos, are you sure you aren't going off the deep end?

"Ambition's my new primary sphere. Still getting used to it. Other form's also a bit more emotionally unrestrained. I'll get rid of most of these proposals but I'll be honest - I think I'm on to something with my fusion idea."

Withdraw proposal that we remove the Void from [non]-existence.

Withdraw proposal to we build a galaxy-sized space battleship with a WMG and a humanoid form that the gods can use to enter the Void and destroy the Nulls within it.

Withdraw proposal that all the gods fuse into a singular "God" and use the supremely ultimate power of the fusion to utterly annihilate the Void.

"By the way, I'm not arguing that I'm not intentionally involved in this any more because I am - I still claim that I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON. I'm just tired of repeating myself over and over. Since most arguments are won by the loudest person this may be detrimental but really, I'm not sacrificing my pride for that."

"chance chose Yaos to be the one to have created the stoNe meN. Thus, she both did and didn't, in the way that some other being did and didn't do it and reality fixed the causation to have Yaos do it, but that required her to be alive, thus reviving her."

"So the only reason they claim to listen to me and aren't attacking Humans is by chance? And that Serac, for example, is mathematically just as responsible for this as me? Wait. If it was chance that did it and even dead gods are considered candidates, then couldn't another dead god have been brought back to life instead of me? Valkiss or Kujin for example?"

"I think it is worth a try..."

"This is the part where I'd argue and maybe perhaps even make a few threats, but honestly, I've thought about that option before. I'm currently doing some experiments in the background which may help in getting back my old sphere. My current bottleneck is my pitifully low amount of Essence. If nothing works, I'm probably going to have Azem kill me in a very specific manner and then revive me. I just ask for patience."
