Neither I or the other members of the pantheon are conspiring against you, rest assured. I wished to know if you really had the same objective as we have. I suppose that your way of acting is less visible than direct actions, but it seems you do have the same wish as we have, now that you present it in this way. I am sorry of doubting of you. The current situation did not help... I need to take a break from this mess.

"...that is, I think...an example of what I mean when I speak of the Shadows...deception is there, in a manner of speaking...but it is subtlety...and indirect change...that are more closely associated with it...I simply could not find the words for it...shadows conceal...and they obscure...but they rarely lie...they simply allow one to take the conclusions about what they mean...without correction...perhaps it is my fault...for thinking it would be clear...my apologies..."

I was addressing what you said about growth, and the means you use to bring it. I am still glad to see I was wrong on this other point too.

I am happy we were able to resolve this peacefully through discussion.

"...I understand...it was just that when you said it was less visible...it reminded me of the word I desired to describe what I mean when I speak of Shadows..."

Oh, is that it? I don't really see the problem. Having multiple systems offer a greater diversity of choice, rendering magic as a whole far more versatile.

Isn't that something you should like? The abundance of magic should be empowering your second aspect.

"True, but...It seems so sloppy to have multiple small systems as opposed to one big, unifying system.  Or, at least, you know.  A system with subsystems."

Also, 3E to Iliseth, as magic fees.  Because magic.

((Oh, WHAT FUN.))
((Seriously.  Why.  WHY.  WHY THE FISH.))
((All the same.))
"All right, this is simply untenable.  I'm going to DO THINGS.  If any of you want to help, I'd appreciate it.  Uniting magic....Here goes."
==Action==
Expend as much Essence as is required, unless I run out of Essence, to craft a metamagic system to unite the systems that can be united.  I am going to hypothesize that 'True Magic' will not be included in such.  Also, this will result in an expansion of effects of types of magic beyond, perhaps, their original scope.  Specifically, pyromancers will find that they can, surprisingly enough, do things other than create fire.  Because mental force really should be more versatile.  This is a theoretically collaborative effort, if anyone wants to contribute.
==End Action==

((Seriously.  Why.  WHY.  WHY THE FISH.))

(Because it actively hates you and wants to kill you. Unless you make a deal with whatever Void beings exist, it'll do everything in its power to strip you of your power and ruin your creations. Making a deal is a very bad idea, if Ye Gods was anything to go by.)

[Stirk]

((Go ahead.))

(Void stuff. Unstable, unsafe, untestable, and evil. Don't touch it.)

((That is pure conjecture!

There *is* also a mysterious ambient energy all Gods are instinctively aware is known as "Magic", however it is separated from this world. Think of it like an energy trapped behind a foggy pane of bulletproof glass, they can see something on the other side but can not get to it. A coordinated effort from multiple gods could put a hole in the glass, giving magic to mortals, but you would not understand how it works.

((Didn't stirk say something at some point about making the void stuff more hostile and alien? So far our only contact with them is through a massive army of brainwashed husks. That and apparently killing them infects you or something.))
