Era 0 Turn 6: Timeskip will occur soon
Innanis Dominus"It all seems so distant, but now I am curious. What exactly is the void? And how did it come to be inside of me?
Are there other worlds out there? Where did Sarrab come from?"
They would rest and listen curiously. He needed to understand the full extent of what had happened and why.
Arca walks to you, and create an impenetrable sphere.
Inside, she creates two simple and comfortable seats, a parasol and some refreshment.
"Aaah, finally a break. Sorry, but putting up with every young gods antics is hard for a Protearch. It will be our secret, okay ?"
She then takes of her hood, revealing a white head seemingly made of pure porcelain, with two glowing eyes.
"You are asking the right questions. It means you have already matured enough to be made aware of the nature of the Void. Let's begin.
First off, what is Void ? It is different from an empty vacuum. Void is a primal substance, the brick that made up unborn universes. It is Everything and Nothing at the same time, and existed since before Existence itself.
Now, you must be wondering : what is the relation between Ether and Void ? It is a simple truth that we hide to younger divine ones : Ether is the first and only Anomaly that was born out of the Void. You have to know that the current iteration of Protearchs is different from the first ones : before Ether existed, there were "Ancient" Protearchs, but those were beings of Void. Ether was born when the Void of a group of Ancient Protearchs suddenly turned into Ether."
She takes a sip of a cup of tea.
"Now secondly. How did Void come to appear inside you ? There is only one possible way considering the situation : your Ether turned into Void. How and why it happened is a mystery though, but is is safe to assume the Ultimate One is involved. Such an event means for sure the Ultimate One has plans for your destiny.
Thirdly, about the worlds outside. They are infinite. Innumerable universes, filled with existences, with their own laws, shaped by Protearchs that came before. Saraab, Proelior and Kahn comes from one of these universes, though now it returned to the Interstice. The Interstice is the everything that isn't an Universe, it is where everything of Void dwells."
After answering your questions, she adds something :
"One last thing. You may wonder who or what is this Ultimate One. It calls itself the [RNG], and is an entity above all that is and is not. It may be right to call it the true "God", as it is truly omniscient, has infinite powers and can twist everything according to its will. It is the [RNG] that created the Ancient Protearchs, it may even have created Void and Ether. And all Protearchs know that even though our Wills may be ours, our Fates are not.
Some accept it, like me and Ekariot, but other refuse it. Saraab, Kahn and Proelior comes from a World whose Protearchs were of the latter. Their rebellion sealed their Fates."
She then ends with this :
"If you have any more question, feel free to ask. No one can hear us in this space I created. And feel free to share what I said to your siblings if you wish to."
Resoonman Exmel RastaraI Teleport in, grab the swine, and teleport to a diffrent part of the caves.
After having created the traps of the labyrinths, you sense the tragedy that befell on the Stone Swines. Though they initially survived, they ended up lacking food and died of starvation. They even resorted to cannibalism to survive.
You teleport in and transport the Stone Swines to a safer location of the caves.

Teaching Roll: [6]>[1] [Teaching+1]
Proelior expertly analyzes the situation, and rightly deducts he must adapt his teaching to the Amazons. He scrapes the complicated and intricate lessons of strategy, logistic and resource management, to introduce 'Hitting People 101'.
It works with great success, under the guidance of Proelior the Amazons quickly learn how to lethally punch one another. To too great success actually, as half the students die during the end exam.
You wonder, maybe a battle to the death was a bad idea as a final test ?

Resoonman: I add Exactly One 771 power to assist in the creation of the Solar Cycle Device.
Veeki: "Oh, very nice! So much of an opportunity for chaos, once adjusted!"
Veeki Mori Ubei Shaki Ento supplies 5001 Energy for the day-night-seasons thingy.
Saraab: After a heated debate, Saraab decides to allow the other divine entity to have their way, hoping it won't be too expensive:
Every 24 hours, a new cloud will be formed over the continental ocean, casting a veil of darkness over the land. These clouds will travels at a normal pace, spending about 8-12 hours over each region, depending on specific factors.
Every three months, a stronger cloud will emerge, one that will change the season of the region it travels over. The seasons are warm and wet, warm and dry, cold and dry, cold and wet, and occur in that order (suck it wet autumns of earth). This will deplete all the energy, and will have to spend the next 3 months being naturally recharged.
These patterns are set in stone, and unable to be changed without the power of at least 4 divine entities, with the following exceptions:
1. A divine entity is able to recharge the seasonal cloud with their own power, triggering a new seasonal cloud (cuz why not).
2. A divine entity is able to change the laws of a region to block certain seasonal effects for a small price (as long as it is high enough to not want to be tampered with). This allows them to be customized, such as always being warm, with wet and dry seasons, or always being cold and wet, because you hate your creations.
3. These clouds will rarely bring water, and will not effect the ecosystem beyond changing the seasons and bringing darkness. This allows deserts to still be deserts.
4. Adding a region to the clouds path for flat cost is possible. Adding a continent is also possible for a less linear cost is also possible.
Four gods gathers to create what they would call the "Night/Day/Season Cycle".
Drakieng, the original motioner adds that "he wants to raise the Sky higher". The demand in itself is pretty confusing, then all gods retort that the Golden Sky can't be manipulated by any of them. Saddened, Drakieng sulks a bit.
Seeing nothing has been done, Saraab the most experienced one raises his voice and propose the Cycles System.
The other gods look completely awed and dazzled in face of so much informations and arguments, and Saraab even suspects they either didn't get a clue of what he said, or they were busy daydreaming. It feels like a normal business reunion.
Then when he is over, they all cheer and applaud, saying "Oh very nice !" "Great idea !" "I support this motion !".
Yep. A normal business reunion.

Together the three gods give to Saraab their contribution which he uses to form an immense black cloud covering the Ocean. With the combined powers of the Gods, he manages to craft an even better Artifact than he had in mind. The excess energy absorbed by the Artifact manifested as a glowing white orb, illuminating the darkened lands with a faint white light.
It could be chosen to make this orb visible or not.
