(Hour 10) Audditorius creates the Lightshrooms, a parasitic fungus that enforces his doctrine of pure law and good.
However, this comes with the side effect of driving the host to complete apathy and disconcert for everything except enforcing Law and Good - which they do with ruthlessness and brutality. The Lightshrooms slowly overgrow the host’s body, eventually turning them into a mindless mass of light and fungus that chases anyone that deviates even slightly from lawfulness and goodness.
The followers of Audditorius are now seen as a dangerous mind-consuming cult by the masses, and the Light becomes a term of fear to all men. Desperate measures are taken to contain them, and most people kill themselves rather than risk exposure to a Lightshroom.
And with all the other stuff going on, this isn’t even big enough to generate an Enthalpy.
CLESTESTH: "
A great showing, my children! Now, then, my fellow gods have been busy corrupting the grass. The cicadas are now huddled in their fields in fear. Want some easy meals? Now's the time!"
ALPHA UVHOTH: “
The cicadas? What? They have helped us so far. Those mortals foolish enough to follow insects, however...”
(Hour 12) The Alpha Uvhoth drills up right in the middle of the shielding rune of a village. It corkscrews in midair and turns to regard the men below.
ALPHA UVHOTH: “
Lord Clestesth is coming for you, little ones.”
He then shoots through the air and drills down again through the shielding rune of another village.
-2 shielded villages+1 enthalpy
(Hour 10)
X’arilyg tries to make Psycholoids based off dust instead.
Nothing happens.
(Hour 12) Clestesth, pleased with the success of his creatures, throws his ghastly green cigar down upon the earth.
Sadly, the conversion of divine objects to mortal materials hasn’t really been mastered yet.
Globs of strange material burning with green fire are spread over a good portion of the earth’s surface. The fire heals and purifies all living things near it.
A good fraction of the villages are able to collect some and use it to break the mind-control on the cicadas.
32 towns, including the Civil War town, no longer have mind-controlled cicadas
(Hour 13) Gello feeds the Windstorm.
It soon develops into a full-blown hurricane and induates two towns.
-2 towns+1 weather problem+1 enthalpy
(Hour 14) Roboson builds his Tower, which spurts water endlessly. A nice pond forms around it.
He also accidentally blesses
all water, not just the stuff from the tower, so
everyone gets strength and vitality.
The civil war increases in vigor.
+1 enthalpy
(Hour 16) Cavefriend surrounds a town in a cave, careful to avoid hitting the shield.
The town begins mining the cave for minerals and becomes famous for its earthly riches. In honor of the benefit this brings, it is renamed Cavefriend in time, though the people do not know how fitting the name is.
(Hour 18) Nephilim attempt to transmute all Grimmersteel into cicada food.
He fails.

If you acted but didn't see something happen, then it was probably no-showed by the Fire Sigil; check the timeline.
