Foxmox talks to Nicolai and Thousandtails: "So that evil emperor guy? Yeah he's dead some other god dropped a mountain on him. Guess you don't need to deal with him then. But there's this Maxin Empire nation thing that has Sharp Foxes as slaves. I don't like slavery could you do something about that please?"

Foxmox then sneakily visits the Maxin empire and finds a rebelliously minded Sharp Fox slave. "So how would you like to lead a slave uprising for fun fur and freedom?"Foxmox then transforms the Sharp Fox into a Hero for one Essence!

"Just remember my Servants Nicolai and Thousandtails are coming to help!"

That said Foxmox then goes to the Fertile Continent and creates another Greater Law covering it for 1 Greater Essence.

WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!?! YOU KILLED... NONE OF THEM DESERVED THIS, YOU MONSTER!



Now that that's out of the way, I have to fix this. You caused this wall of text.

Right, let's see here...

Separating Tarrant from Torus by abusing continental drift, putting it retroactively in a different continent that just happens to be a day's sail away? Sounds fine to me! (I think it goes without saying this warms up Tarrant, but saying it just in case.)
Spoiler: Cumbria (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Map (click to show/hide)

I give Tucleon over to...


Kel flips a coin.

...Discordia, to do as she wishes.

And now the ecosystem. (Yes, I got 2 GE from somewhere. Don't ask. It's better for everyone.)

Spoiler: Sunberry (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Dragonbeetle (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Korribirch Trees (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Antmoles (click to show/hide)

What's next... Ah yes, the Basin. This is a cavern under Tarrant, with entrances dotted over the region. It has bioluminescent fungi and underwater streams. I bless the Basin: "Any living thing in the Basin will thrive there, as the water is pure and the soil will support any plant."

I create the Archive of Period Incorrect Technologies (aka the Archive) as my contribution to the Anchor Restoration Project.
Spoiler: The Archive (click to show/hide)
Lastly, give Eris my remaining 2 LE and patronize everything I or Eris/Discordia made (or will make) this Cycle, including Galina.

I deeply apologize for any Strain my actions this Cycle causes.

I go to the Crown of Thorns, thrusting my will upon the stone I drag forth Maxin's remains, wrapped within a shell of stone Grinning I set to work, Resculpting what remains, drawing his soul from the rod of lux and reincarnating him into a new body, a body of flame, earth, and metal...

I Spend an act to create a new sentient monster, the "Father" of its own race, and the bearer of Maxin's soul... or what remains of it.

"Wow, thank you! Now I finally have enough to make some new mortals!" "Don't take too much on it, Eris. I was asked a favor and I want to do it quickly. Also, thanks for the lands, Kel. But I will allow Eris to create during this cycle." "And here they are! Don't you think they are cute?"

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Eris creates this race at Tucleon and uplifts them (1 Essence, 2 Lesser) She then uses a Lesser Essence to recreate the pair of temples that were destroyed in Tucleon, even larger and beautiful than before!

Discordia drags Eris and incarnates where Talavars is in the form of a pair of winged snakes (golden and silver), as snakes are similar to dragons.

"Talavarsss! Hero of the Drogosss! I am Dissscordia, bringer of conflict and chaosss. Yet, for order to exissst, there alwaysss mussst be chaosss. Fear not, for I and Tachyon Everlord are alliesss and you came to the aid of the Three-Eyed Bovinesss when they needed you, which I had blesssssed. I am grateful for your actionsss. What happened to the Anchor wasssn't your fault. We godsss are far from perfect beingsss. The heretic Adriot and the theropodsss, being protected by X'arilyg the betrayer waged war againssst the godsss themssselvesss. The classsh between divine beingsss wasss terrible indeed, but it wasssn't your fault. It wass our own fault. Yesss, we make missstakesss. You want to insssult usss? Do ssso, I won't punisssh you. We dessserve it. But thisss isssn't the time for that. Look around you. The people needsss a ssstrong leader and you are the only capable of that. Let thisss be a lessssson for you. Redemption isss not archieved by abandoning your place when your people needsss you the mossst. That'sss cowardice. The will of Tachyon Everlord isss for you to find a legendary weapon in the remainsss of the Anchor and lead them to a new age of prosssperity, but thisss weapon might lead to a new war, worss than the lassst by virtue of being a weapon. If you wisssh to ssseek this powerful weapon and your destiny, I will guide you to it. Otherwissse, we will jussst leave your alone forever. We godsss don't alwaysss make the right choicesss. Ssso this is your own choice."

CATACLYSM TURN


The Cataclysm raged, and Dirt changed...

------Shaped Lands------
The Fertile Continent:
The wild flow of the Cataclysm changed the Fertile Continent, enriching its lands with power. Its plants and creatures grew stronger and more resilient, turning it into a vibrant haven of nature.

The Dexoth Ocean:
In the same vein as the Fertile Continent, the Dexoth Ocean was enriched by the overflowing energies of Dirt.

------Unshaped Lands------
The Land of a Thousand Chasms:
In a distant place, the earth cracked open over the width of a Continent, exposing its surface to deepless rifts. The countless chasms exposed veins of Dirt's miraculous ores, metals and crystals with undiscovered properties pulsating with energy. Furthermore, these chasms appearance was not without reason. Each of them was carved by a flowing current of Dirt energy, and these shaping currents still flowed through the chasms...

The Crystal Continent:
In another distant place, the land suddenly and violently crystallized from the flow overload. Plains, hills, valleys and mountains of crystals covered this newborn Continent. The energy of Dirt was the most unstable in the Crystal Continent, causing it to be plagued with devastating energy storms and many more natural and magical disasters.


------The Moon------
While the Cataclysm didn't affect the Moon, its main island had to deal with its own share of problems. All the living beings of the Moon adapted to the harsher environment, becoming more vicious and savage. One may suspect that the divine energy that struck the Moon was actually the cause of such changes.

The most numerous predator of the Moon was the Waltroas, the dog-like amphibian that scoured both land and sea for preys.
The most dangerous was the Arfus, the cow-patterned manatees who developed an unparalleled strength.
Plants also turned very dangerous, developing poisons, deadly thorns and enhanced growth.
The pigs and goats remained herbivorous, but turned extremely violent to anything not belonging to their species. Sometimes, encounters with enraged pigs/goats were much more dangerous than encounters with Waltroas.

There were countless other dangerous species in addition to the above ones.

------Ma'Rook------

The Major God Ma'Rook retreated to its Realm, hidden deep inside the Other Plane. In an odd twist of fate, the Other One had come to ressent its own contradictory existence, and wished to return to what they should have been, to the primordial laws.

First, leave everything behind.

A ripple was felt all across the Other Plane as Ma'Rook terminated its own life, causing its Realm to collapse on itself.

Then, be reborn into the world.

At the very same time the Other One's existence was ending, a new kind of existence was forming in the Divine Plane. As Ma'Rook died, a new Divine One was rising, born from Ema. In the shape of a Dexoth, that is, a serpentine being with a massive hand instead of a head, the new Major God was born.

While Discordia was busy talking with Talavars, Eris decides to go greet the "new" god.

"Aw, I'm going to misssss Ma'Rook. But now we have a new friend! Hi Dexoth!"

"Whooopsss, I hope you don't mind the hisssssing."

I have been reborn. Fitting that my last act as an Other of Alteration was to alter myself, and my first act as a god of destruction is to destroy my old self. Truly symmetrical this act was, this Ema is.

Please, call me Maex. A new god deserves a new name after all.


Maex, seeking to make his mark on this world, created an artifact using a greater essence. A massive ring only a Dexoth could wear. It would allow the wearer control over the elements of wind, fire, and earth, but would not work in water.

Using his remaining power he rose a tower near the center of the first continent, and gave a vision to the Dexoths. This vision showed himself using the ring to raise mountains, burn forests, and create tornados. Then him placing it in the tower and beckoning for the Dexoths to claim it.

Come my children, claim your prize, expand your dominion. I wait for your conquest, reward in hand.
