(( It's alright. I know I'm forgettable. ;P ))


Through the jaws of the starvation comes the salvation of The Traveler. It is His plan, it seems, bring those of Uudvurk low, let them know the taste death, the sting of pain. Only then could they grow.

2 Swampmen, feeling that they are unready to dredge enough food from the depths of the land of their namesake, again scavenge the wetlands in G-4.

Meanwhile one industrious worker continues to divine lore upon the construction of basic stone tools that they may move on from broken fingernails and raw palms.

Finally the last of the Swampmen gives the prerequisite prayers to their god of ruin.

All while the miracle of life begins to take shape as three food is spent to birth another man of muck and grime.

Turn 8- Regrowth



Thul, Purity of Avarice, Ponders the Replenishment of Basic Food. Perhaps it is that simply. He pushes 1 FP as carefully as he can to see the effects into C5.
He finds the land accepting it, but no growth occurs. However, the plants do seem livelier.

Thul, having found something that does seem like it would work, switches to pondering how to make it work.
Replenish Basic Food's Pondering time has been reduced. Ponder at 3/5. However, let it be known that this action has also come to the attention of his opponent, and he can take advantage of the reduced time without any FP cost.


Jaanin'Maldaraak continues to Ponder, dedicated to his task. He notices his opponent's action, and notes the underlying principal of Replenish Basic Food.

[Nirur Torir]

Thul, Purity of Avarice
A faint wave of self-satisfaction fills the realm after his discovery.
Thul feels his energy pool. Having power was Good. Perhaps one more expenditure to give his tribes plenty of room to grow, and then he could hoard it until it was time to create more deer.

Continue pondering replenishment. What more could there be? The energy didn't have a god's hand guiding it. Maybe it filled the air, instead of the land, for the plants to breathe? Perhaps he would have to denature it back into primal energy, but that seemed like an open invitation to the Ruiner to ruin things.
Create a river at B3, and 5 deer at C5.

Jaanin'Maldaraak considers the circumstances of...

While Thul's experimentation did not escape the attention of Jaanin'Maldaraak, it seems that this god was not too inclined to try to imitate it. Manually replenishing the food supply did not seem like a good long term investment...

The foraging technology seemed like a logical research subject for Jaanin'Maldaraak's followers given the extreme importance of it. It was surprising that it took this long to make progress on it.

For now, the expansion of the land was the priority. While the Swampmen were struggling with food the most, they still had an untouched tile they could access so they should be able to maintain their population provided that they diligently collect food. The highest priority now was the north.

Jaanin'Maldaraak creates a Hill tile at F1 (-3FP)

The zastarn bonekin, focused on their survival, spend 7 food to procreate and raise three new workers.  Two of the current ones scavenge f2 again hoping a second set of eyesockets could find something that they missed, and two forage F3, with the fifth attempting to mark a path southward to F4.

Right back to their original size, the Sawmpmen, now realizing some of their prior follies, immediately dixtate that yet more gatherings of food to sustain their way of life must be done!

Three Swampmen head out into the river of G-5 to scavange for new and interesting delicious morsels.

Professing to know the will of their Ruinous Lord, one man of Uudvurk commands another to fervently work on tooling as he prays with the utmost conviction.

One worker researches basic stone tools.

Turn 9- Life is but a part,



Thul, The Purity of Avarice, continues Pondering. For whatever reason, his power can b converted to, speed the regrowth of edible plants. One would consider this could also be used to speed the regrowth of damaged areas, but right now it only affects basic food already present in a tile. Perhaps... Further thoughts can't really be determined from the current information, and his attention is drawn to something occurring on the other side, as a worker tries to plot a path south. It goes poorly. Amused, he creates a River at B3. 4/5

Jaanin'Maldaraak continues to Ponder. He also creates Hills at F1. He also watches as a worker simply seems to vanish, their life snuffed out by the natural dangers of the night. That mostly being poor night vision in an unknown environment, and getting very unlucky. 9/12

However, Wooden Tools is at 10/12 now, so.. Though you guys do need food.

Zastarn Bonekin
7 food is spent in the creation of 3 new tribe members, materials piled together to give birth to them.
2 workers scavenge F2, finding food once more, 4 in this case.. Not the best result, but not from lack of trying.
2 more workers scavenge F3, finding 5 food.
1 worker attempts to plot a course southward, only to find themselves separated from the tribe. This is then followed by wandering in circles with no idea of where they are, before night falls. They end up dying overnight from a particularly bad fall, energy bleeding out of their bones until finally they lay still, never to reawaken. Turns out not being able to plot a course or know the environment is really bad. So is nighttime. - 1 Worker.

Swampmen of Uudvurk
3 workers travel to the floodplains of G6, finding not much area they can forage, the valley walls being too treacherous to climb. However, they work together to find 6 food despite that fact from the floodplains.
