"Oh nonononono this isn't good we can't have this!"

"Okay okay calm down Foxy gotta calm down. There's gotta be some way to save the Foxes. And all the other nice people. Yeah. Ooh! I've got an idea! I've got an idea I've got an idea an idea!"

Foxmox creates a Greater Servant/Location: The House of the Rising Sun.


Foxmox creates the House of the Rising Sun flying above Nicolai and Thousandtails.

"Okay Nicolai and Thousandtails I need to tell you something. Something very very bad is about to happen. Very bad. Like worse than the mountain falling out of the sky bad and unless we help out it's gonna kill all the Sharp Foxes! So I've got a mission for you! Pilot the House of the Rising Sun I made for you to the Evil Maxin Kingdom and rescue all the slaves! By the way slavery is very bad if I haven't told you this already. Then you should probably fly to the Fertile Continent to escape the bad time cataclysm because things are going to get very bad. The Fertile Continent is this super awesome place that's still on Dirt but not Torus. It's full of super weird magic stuff that will make everything like anime. Oh and it grows plants good."

Foxmox sends the HRS, Nicolai, and Thousandtails to the Maxin Kingdom of Bleh to rescue all their slaves and take them to the Fertile Continent to escape the Bad Times.

"Look I know you're listening you evil Maxin god person. Listen up. If you try to stop them I'll bite your face off."

If another god intervenes to prevent the rescue or assist the Maxin people in stopping the rescue, Foxmox will infuse his Essence into himself and bite that god's face off.

If that doesn't happen, Foxmox will instead use his Essence on a Greater Law affecting the House of the Rising Sun(because it's also a Location).


"Um one more thing. I'm gonna make a prophecy!"

"The next cataclysm to occur will be really really nasty in spite of the efforts of a lot of gods but at least the Sharp Foxes as a species will survive by escaping to the Fertile Continent in the House of the Rising Sun!"

”Another cataclysm? This will not do. I must protect my children.”
Use both my essence and greater essence to shield the moon from further destruction and chaos. I will not allow the life that both I and Acter worked so hard to create be decimated a second time!

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.

”Oh how gratuitous the ones who are the most invigorated fall to grace, trying to assume dominion and attachment to the things of all things they have created, but keep on trying to make your attachments even though the directed prejudice of a single entity, for I was the one master of puppets of them all, as the universe implication without me would have been a peaceful and chastise one as this entity has created the most impact, unlike fox-god yeah keep doing your very important deeds, for this entity is always in your mind, watching into the soul that you were provided.”

Maïspapa whispers across the world, an oppressive wall if ever there was one, to the House of the Rising Sun, whom the Corn Pope desires and is in turn desired by (1GE):
"O envious world, to what end standest thou against lovers?
It would be such a favor if thou let us draw together,
Or, if this be too much, allow the giving of kisses?
Neither are we ungrateful: We admit that we are indebted to thee,
who grantest us that our words be carried across to friendly ears.
"

Also, Païsmama votes for GrandMavnon.

Tachyon looks at the voting list, thinks it over, and brushes it to the side. He is still waiting for the restoration of his creation after pouring all his essence into it. Frowning and holding the Metallix Arcana.

1 GE: Populate Transnullis with an ecosystem full of deadly plantlife and somewhat less deadly animal/fungi life. All animals resemble marsupials crossed with insects. Giraffe-sized kangaroos with the heads of beetles are the biggest motile life. Of course, the whole ecosystem is eldritch and emit mutagens into the atmosphere, mutating non-Transnullisian life.
1E: Create the the Servant "The Mist, Pleasureful Smog of Singular Value" a living mass of blue smoke that slowly patrols Transnullis. All that comes into contact with the cloud begin experiencing odd dreams which either drive them insane or make them amazingly good at one skill which they enjoy. This only affects sapients. Regardless, all who enter the mist become conditioned to want to stay in Transnullis


Action: Mavnon goes around telling people of the coming cataclysm.
Action: Mavnon also does her best to create rumours of safety in Transnullis from the coming cataclysm.


Mavnon isn't at all perturbed about the coming mass exticnction.

**/*****/**/* stands to the side of all that happens, looking worried.

I'll edit this post to give my essence to anyone who has a plan for trying to mitigate the cataclysm and needs more essence to do it.

Hey, **/*****/**/*, could you write up a list of specific things that the previous Cataclysm broke? I know that, at he very least, fixing those will make the upcoming disaster less disastrous.

Ah, fair enough.
A greater essence should be sufficient to bless their climate toward more temperate temperatures, yes? ...actually, no, that would be excessive I think.
Actually, now that I think about it, I could just make a "return to normal climate" blessing over the whole of the world. That seems like it would work.

1 GE: A blessing over Dirt, causing areas whose climates were negatively impacted by the recent Cataclysm to have those climates revert to their pre-Cataclysm status.

Acter will use one GE to create a reasonably-sized [read: Asia-sized] moon with Inanis as its core (as per the plan prior to gaining access to the main universe), grant his other GE to Kel for the creation of his Dwarves, and, as per communal request, uses his QE to destroy Nakyr, the skinless fox/arms Greater Abomination that got created by Ema out of a rug during the chaos that occurred this Cycle.

In light of the imminent influx of inimically inclined immigrants, Païsmama blesses the continent-sized moon's inhabitants with peace assuming Acter provides permission. (If not, this blessing is reduced as necessary so that some lesser form of the blessing ends up falling on the moon to reduce the paperwork)

Maïspapa applies a blessing of general fertility on Torus.

Maex using a GE creates a benevolent Dexoth of massive size and power upon the moon. It's light markings glow constantly rather than just in the dark and unlike normal dexoths, it has a glowing iris. This special eye allows this Dexoth the ability to use their innate magic powers to astroproject and see the world from afar in addition to the extra size and strength of a mega dexoth.
My child, I bring you high above the world. To look out, to see, to know, and to act upon that, that is the power of the gods. I gift you a modicum of this power, so that you may know the world and grow wise.

Next Maex uses a minor action to bring the most benevolent of the other dexoths to the moon. Thou shant be alone my child, this sky oasis has your older siblings, and many smaller beings. I will leave you all one last gift to aid you in the trying times to come. Prepare yourselves my children.

Maex uses an E to bless the moon dexoths with an ability to look into the future. While this power varies from dexoth to dexoth, it grows in power and accuracy when more dexoths use it simultaneously and/or in close proximity. (So for best results, used close together and at the same time).
