"Sancturn was created On a Glacier, The Crusade allows all to see The Light, even if they have no hope of witnessing it now, Later they will be Illuminated by It's Sanctified Glow. The Luminites do not Kill, rather, they Destroy the Corruption of their Mortal Bodies, and their Souls come ever closer to The Light."
"Then I will pick up the Luminites, I have experience in carrying people.
And you are sending them to kill people. It may be destroying their bodies, but it's still killing.
"
"I would not be surprised if the Luminites you pick up use the opportunity to attack you."

"Allow me to Correct Myself. The Luminites do not Kill out of Malice to Other Mortals, they Kill out of a Desire to Cleanse Their Souls of all Corruption, Allowing them to Ascend to Purity, the Highest State of Being."
"They're still killing people, people who should choose for themselves. They're taking decisions of others' lives, with inadequate responsibility."

"I would not be surprised if the Luminites you pick up would take the opportunity to attack you."
"That is a risk I have considered. This is an extreme solution, and I have chosen to accept the risk. If it comes to this.
It can still be prevented.
If you find a way to stop the attack, go ahead, but until then, this plan still stands.

"Xenraft is already stopping the attacks in an elegant manner, by dropping a mountain on the portal.

If need be, we can take further action to isolate the Luminites and prevent the creation of portals in their region if the Coward persists in his foolishness.

Returning to the topic of the imprisoned demon, further contemplation has revealed to me that expelling him from our world would be too tricky to spend our attention on now. As such, I would like to propose that we keep him imprisoned for another two centuries, and then revisit the decision of what to do with him."

Clarity fades and Xenraft says to Slæve...
If you do take some of the Lamp's Creatures to safety and they Bother you too much, then Send them to my People, They won't be killed only Enslaved, and Unlike With The Lamp they WILL be able to keep their Religion if they still wish to, if not then they can Always join mine...

"Well then, there is no more rush. And I need only deal with any place the Luminites may have invaded before the mountain fell.
However, make sure the Demon isn't made incapable of speaking. It's one thing to be imprisoned, and another to be silenced as well.

The only killing I would ever agree on, is euthanasia, and even then it's not that simple. They need to have sufficient responsibility with that power.

Turn 6: The Crusade Begins

Om teaches the Tortons metalworking and architecture. The tortons begin to build true structures in their encampment and get several novice forges up and running. Yet the pace is slow and the quality of work is what is expected from beginners.

Triniteus, after much waiting and planning, transforms his land into a chaotic world of fire, ice, and lightning. At each moment the entire area is either one of fire, ice, or lightning, yet it may change to a different element at any moment. This rapid switching of elemental powers causes the land to be constantly dangerous and unpredictable. Here he places his Asthates, who will thrive in this chaotic landscape. Almost immediately the golems, beseech the Asthates for relief.
This land is angry, and makes us angry. We cannot protect this tablet from ice, fire, and lightning. We demand a sanctuary so that we may live in peace.

Next Triniteus places the Grots within the world. A quater of the grots join the Asthates in the southern region. A Second quarter was placed in the northern region near the luminites. A third quarter was placed in the western quarter near the Torton settlement.
The final quarter was placed deep within the earth.

Asteros begins nudging his tribal people towards civilization. First he teaches them writing, which allows them to express ideas and praise to Asteros in a more material way. This became more important as he taught the Alarri architecture. These two concepts were interpreted to go hand in hand, and many Alarri began writing upon their buildings.

The angel Ryalliph can be spotted flying over the world. He looks down at the affairs of mortals. He seems displeased, but does not act or speak.




As the war in the east comes to a close, after many weeks of disinterest by the gods, a new war begins. Like all wars, it is waged in the name of good and evil, with those on either side claiming to be good and the other evil. The Luminites have a three pronged attack. Approximately twenty percent of the Luminite population will travel to Berial's Continent. There they will attack from the south and slay any anorath who do not declare themselves as acolytes of Zelthen. The second front will be underground on the Continent of Gods (Official name still pending). The Luminte forces, of the same magnitude as the first force, will slay any dremonians that they can find. They shall give the Ickanthy the opportunity to join the crusade. The third prong will lay waste to the western forests, home to the tortons. They will burn omnifruit trees and take any torton young back to Sancturn.

In the far north the god Xenraft unleashes his counter attack on Zelthen and the Luminites. High in the sky above Sancturn Xenraft crafts a mountain the size of a small island. It hangs there for a moment before falling towards Sancturn. It takes less than a minute before the island crashes into the icy bastion. Much of Sancturn is crushed, the rest buried. Survivors are few, far between, and wounded.Even if they survive their wounds, they are trapped beneath a mountain. Those in the Aubern wood glades outside of Sancturn survive, but have no way of getting to their fellows who are buried alive beneath the earth. Of the 300 some Luminites who remained at Sancturn, only 20 were outside gathering Abuernite wood. Slightly less than 40 inside Sancturn survive the initial destruction, but are burried alive.

Slaeve, still in mortal form, Takes her Luminites to Sancturn to rescue survivors. They manage to save thirty of the 40 who survived the attack. Leaving 50 Luminites alive and homeless in the northern region. Slaeve then flies over to the second continent, which takes a decent amount of time. Once they get there, they search for wounded Anorath. They manage to find about 20 anorath who are fatally injured, and manage to save 15 of them. Slaeve then moves to the Western Forest on the God's continent, where she sees Tortons being attacked by the luminite army. Slaeve swoops in and saves as many tortons as she can, ushering several hundred to the Lamia camp, safe from the danger of Luminites, Grots, and orange slimes.




As the world changes, two new gods join the pantheon. Sparked by the sudden increase in war and death in the world the the god Mir is drawn into the pantheon in order to bring peace to world. However, another god, Kyazir god of war, is also drawn in by ongoing conflict. The god Garix is removed from the pantheon, his duties involving the afterlife and the sorting of mortal souls, is now taking up too much time for him to meddle in the mortal world.




Four requests are posed to the pantheon.

The first request is made by an angel. I am Uriak, angel of music. I see your world is without music. I pose a challenge to you gods, and a reward for the winner. The god who's mortals produce the best music, as determined by me, will receive an artifact created by me as well as special blessing for your mortals. Both of which are surprises worthy of your attention as a god.

The second request comes from a powerful undead spirit They look as if they are a humanoid without skin, so that their muscle and sinew is clearly visable. Furthermore, they seem to have the ability to grow bone armor over their bodies at will. They seem to be the product of necromancy. I am the Red King Rakuza. I am drawn to this world by the war and death it now contains. Please allow me to enter this world so that I may lead and army into battle. The spirit glows with dark energy, the result of devouring hundreds of souls. It would cost 14 points to bring into this world.

The third request comes from the Inax. With their god on vacation, they have been left unattended and are withering away in the divine realms, unable to truly exist. Bringing them into the world would cost 4 IP.

The final request comes as a strange note. Zkpmqss gvyy saam lq cdam iac. Qypevbou dagqes tkjq cdam iace gaeyp. Sbad buqz lqraeq vbs baa ykbq.

"Ah, how wonderful. A world brimming with strife and conflict. A mere pittance at this stage but that's something we can fix. However, I presume that there is little land left for any new intelligent mortals. In that particular line of thought, I would suggest creating more in order to ensure that plenty more life can be sustained on this world."

[Sleeve, Snake of Medicine]

Sleeve will bring the Anorath to the Lamia Camp. Along with the Lamias she had carried since the underground war.
Sleeve shrinks to normal size, and creates a needle for 1 point.
Then she creates Sleeve Arts, a magic of good feeling and healing, for 15 points.
Thirdly, she creates a roll of silken thread for 1 point.

"I have created magic of healing. With pure intention and good mood, you will heal more than before. In time, your power will increase."
She will sew shut severe wounds, and reattach limbs. As she is the only one capable of high level Sleeve Arts.

Having transposed the Asthates, Triniteus communicates to them :
"Asthates, Sons and Daughters of Fire, Ice and Thunder. Having finally transposed you into the physical world, your true story begins now. This land that I just imbued with the elements will be your home, and I will watch from above over your progress.

I want you to be free, and to live with the goal to always better yourself and surpass your limits.
I made you all different so that your true Strength as a people would shine when you would unite the Three Elements : those who manage to forge balance out of chaos are those who will be worthy of my praise.

Finally before leaving you to carve your path, I will leave a test to the most courageous ones.

In the Center of the Continent lies a Stone Tablet, upon which is inscribed the Names of All Gods of the Continent. The journey won't be an easy one, but those who will reach the Tablet will truly be amongst the strongest and worthiest of the Asthates.

To those, I will answer their call and bless them with gifts.
To those, I will show how to guide the Asthates."



Triniteus actions :
-To the Asthates :
>Credo: be free and surpass yourself. Strength of your people lies in unity and cohesion.
>Challenge: journey to the Stone Tablet and be rewarded. Potentially become a King/Hero/Guide/Ruler

Asteros looks at his now war-ravaged world with a dispassionate gaze As if someoone coould really force enlightement... what a fool Luckily there were still some  interesting opportunities to take in this world.But first he had to complete his work with the Alarri. He was delighted that they were mixing his teaching in such an original way but he had not finished yet. So he gave them the Second Light.
Teach the Alarri mathematics
Teach the Alarri astronomy
Then he went to Uriak angel of music. "I gladly accept your offer Uriak. Music is one of the best path for Enlightenment and, regardless of how this competition goes, it will have the merit to inroduce the music among my people.
Then he contacts the Alarri, asking them to produce the most pleasant and harmonious sounds they  can.
 Ask the Alarri to partecipate in the music contest. Do not teach them music unless another god cheats and teaches his race music.In that case, teach them music instead of astronomy.

[Sleeve, Snake of Medicine]

When Sleeve is finished with any treatment of wounds she may have done.
"Uriak, you come at grim times. But I do think some respite is needed for now."
Sleeve speaks to some of her people.
"Healing the body is good, but we should also try healing the mind. This stress is not going to do anyone any good.
So, songs and music. It's hard to explain, but sound to put one's mind at ease, and provide a distraction from reality.
Follow a rhythm which one can hear and follow. And test the sounds until you find the pleasant ones.
"
Sleeve will try to teach the Lamias Music and Song, through the old fashioned way of trial and error, along with some guidance.
That is to say, no beaming knowledge into people's minds.
"The challenge is that the mortals must create it. Teaching along the way doesn't seem to go against any rules.
But, if you worry about it. I can exit the competition, I only wish for some more pleasant things in this world.

Yeah, pehraps you are right Sleeve.I was so overeliant on my divine powers that i forgot the other interactions a god can have with his followers. I should try to descend in the mortal world too.
Sp Asteros descends in a beamo of starlight, right in the middle of the biggest vllage, taking the form of an Alarri with deep blue wings, covered in stars. Then he start teaching his followers music the mortal way.
