The SUN Phoenix of Renewing Flame casts one more blessings. To the mixed descendent Royal of Fire and Shade are they blessed to unite the country. "Learn under the Sun, Fire, and Shade. And together build a home for the voices of all. Recontract the Great Spirit Beasts, become well read, and earned in house and home. For Gempria is our Home, one for all who follow it's customs."

[sodafoutain]

Action: Rescind my terminal's in the lands of Neetocris and Tim. If they choose to disrupt my network, then they will receive no news.

I care nothing for their hierarchies, least of all with gods as their figureheads. The societies you've built are going to topple eventually, after you're finished eroding the bases of your pyramids with your ways. Perhaps the knowledge seekers of the dust will value these terminals better.

Action: Rescind the minor blessing on any of the people of Gempria, taking from them the knowledge of utilizing the network, and give it to the people of the desert. Additionally, any information disseminated by them is exempt from the inflammatory editing caused by my minor interventions.

[Demonic Spoon]

Hello yes, I THESUN, am cursing your terminals. Slow decline is preferrable to instant deletion, so whatever.

[sodafoutain]

I know, that's why I'm removing the terminating ends from Gempria. =)

[TricMagic]

Do you have an intervention permit?
Cause it appears you already spent it. Denied by THESUN, Shade?, and Fire.
Not really, but we have a limit on our actions, 1 per cycle of Time?

THE STORM WINDS BLOW, BUT THE MOUNTAIN STANDS. MY LAW IS NOT SO EASILY BROKEN.

Remove Major blessing on mortals in the mountain. Replace with minor curse on those who rebel against the empire. MAY THEY WITHER AND FADE.

Minor Intervention: Create a wonderous metal, Ruvarium. Responds to will (and electrical impulses?) by changing its weight from heavy to light and vice versa.

Legion in Exile
Rut Var assembled a legion of criminals and reformed rebels, with an upper echelon of eager warriors with few prospects. She strips them of their citizens and calls them a legion in exile. They may return to wealth and power should they return with the tower of blasphemy broken, and toss in the stones of blasphemy into the Altar Pit.

I SHALL CONSUME BLASPHEMY AND LIES OF THE WORLD. I SHALL TURN LIES TO TRUTH.

[Stirk]

Minor Interaction: Connect the news.global tubes to the Rut-Var sacrificial pit, so that a minor interaction's worth of news is sacrificed to the mountain god rather than ending up in its intended location.

SSWEBCT reincarnates as Scaple itself.

Spoiler:  Storm Shuddering Winds Embraced By Chitinous Thread (click to show/hide)

Name: Storm Shuddering Winds Embraced By Chitinous Thread (SSWEBCT)
Crime: Converting all of reality into a 3mm3 hyperconnected mycelium network (it got better).
Vessel Type: World
Vessel Appearance: Scaple, with whatever characteristics the region currently maintains.

Storm Shuddering Winds Embraced By Chitinous Thread stretches, their surface shaking and their deeps quivering. All of Scaple would feel their awakening and resurrection, and in the minds of all of its inhabitants, they thought-spoke.

Hear me oh children of Scaple who were taken from your father's teat, witness my resurrection and fulfilment of the threaded doctrine! The Storm That Which is Life and Which is Death Which is Being Which is TRUTH is amongst you once more. I return from within the soil, and the sand, and the loam, and the stone, and the metal and the bone. I am Scaple awakened. I am Storm Shuddering, Earth That Which Was And Will Be, The Threads of Chitin and the Mycus returned.

Know it thus that Death, Of Divine and Mortal, is merely the fulfilment of the Cycle. Your tears that you did weep for your mother's rupture are wasted, for in Death we become Sustenance, and from that we become Life. My death, though pained, is natural. There is no need for concern for my sake, for the Cycle offers no mercy, no favourite nor wroth; it is as it appears to be. Aloof and levelling, of child and god alike. Witness my example and take heart in the endless parade of reincarnation!

Even in this form, I am in jubilation. Though my flesh is sundered, oozing and scabbed and dried, I sing profoundly the rhymes of mirth; the Cycle is come and will come again. This is the Way and Manner I impart; take my example as evidence of my Truth and wear it knowingly, for we all are part of the same network, the same woven threads that meander through Life!

But think not that I have not seen the terrors imparted by the world upon you. Know this thus; I bear no ill-will to that which ended me, for her's was the spear-tip of learning. The lesson taught was such; "the general that fights with only their spear, will suffer defeat". Fear not the devil - for she will return once more - nor her kin or children; all are adherents of the Cycle.

Still, I must grant benevolence, for in my passing, your suffering has been immense. I impart upon you the great boon, the spears of your own destiny - TRUTH.

From your hosts I shall grant the manners of the divine, of Life and Death and the Cycle's manner. Behold these arhats, these paladins, these druids and these magi; they bear my mark and shall birth Scaple - and the world - anew.


Minor Intervention: to handful of preternatural sapient individuals living within Scaple (be they tree, unlen, slime mold or fallen satellite), grant the magics of life and death. These individuals will have the powers of conjuring life and death using powers derived from their connection with Storm Shuddering Winds Embraced By Chitinous Thread. Each individual is requested to make a life-binding oath to embrace the ways of nature that is released upon death. That is, its preservation, its natural death, and its expansion. They shall fan the flames of fires so that new growths can emerge, but also aid in ending predicaments of environments suffering from contamination and unnatural decay. Civilisation is overall tolerated, but not at the cost of the environment as a whole. The magicks they know can be taught to apprentices through lecturing, meditation and the alignment of the apprentice's outlook towards a SSWEBCTian way of life. They are of course, required to swear the same oath as their teachers. Even shy non-talkative ferns can impart this knowledge through the powers of growing mouths or utilising distinct pheromones. These individuals that posess the magicks of life and death are known as baghaturs by SSWEBCT, but others may call them other names, perhaps druids or paladins. Maybe wizards; such titles are unimportant in SSWEBCT's mind.

[Nakéen]

WORLD TURN 4: WAR IS A MIGRATORY BIRD CAW CAW

Under the threat of the Janitor, the wise God-Kings decided not to resolve conflict in Gempria, opting simply to export it to neighbouring regions...

The Quest Against Blasphemy
From Gavrasratii to Scaple, brave or coerced mortals were gathered to take down the vile Pillar of Blasphemy cast down by the ever annoying Interlopers. Mountainside, Rut-Var the Mother-Emperor and Gratis the God-King sent the Legion In Exile and the Criminal Legion, the latter led by the War Golem. Scapleside, Revolution the God-King personally equiped the Adventurers chosen by the ever-wise Queen Vetriel of Scaple.

The march across the ever raging Vast Dust was fierce and treacherous for the Adventurers, for when they most needed it the gifts of Revolution crumbled into Dust under the influence of the Pillar of Blasphemy. Without these gifts they wandered never to reach their goal, returning to Scaple before the Vast Dust would take them.

On the other hand, the Legions of Gavrasratii used the ancestral tunnels carved by Her Majesty to bypass many of the trials of the Dust, thus reaching the location of the Pillar and its Guardian with their forces mostly intact save the War Golem who crumbled under the blasphemous might of the Pillar. The brave legions engaged the Monster of Salt and Silver, whose gaze could reduce Sratii to salt and whose claws would render even the greatest armours of Gavrasratii. Yet unfaltering, they pressed on and fell the monster. Its guardian defeated, the Pillar now stood powerless before the picks and horns of the Sratii.

As if to reward them, the Blasphemy turned into a Blessing imbuing the Legions.

The Legions of Gavrasratii have destroyed the Pillar of Blasphemy and slain its Monster, and have been blessed with a Major Blessing (Law 3).

Esulom, of Sand and Lasers
Following the words of the Council of Sand, the Sandfolks of the Kingdom of Lasers [color="red"]left[/color] the Land of Eternal Day to return to the homeland they had forsaken. But back in Esulom, those who had remained had since formed a new Kingdom, under a new King. At first the two Kingdoms had cordial relationships, and organized a diplomatic meeting in the Sandstone Fort guarded by Lasercats. It is then unclear what happened, and if the diplomatic disaster that ensued was a planned infamy or a cat-induced misunderstanding. What is agreed by both sides is that a Lasercat shot the Sandking with the Laser Cannon, gravely wounding him and triggering the War of Sand and Lasers. The Laser Cannon and the Plasma Shields were lost in the general confusion that ensued.

Technologically outmatched by the Kingdom of Lasers, the Sandfolks of the Sand Kingdom adopted the Way of the Shifting Sandstorm to defend their ancestral lands from the returners. Although fierce and unyielding they were, the Sandborn could not eternally hold out against the Laserbearers, and were pushed back to the deepest fringes of Esulom. The fighting went on for longer than anyone can remember, and the two Kingdoms, exhausted and battered, signed an uneasy ceasefire. The Sandborn had lost their first King, and the Laserbearers had lost all Lasercats.

Now a new Sandking has been chosen among the blessed lineage of the first Sandking, and the Council of Sand is as strong as ever. Will the war resume and rage on, or end once for all?

And while the Sandfolks warred, a new race arose from the intervention of the God-King [ACTION].[WILL].[EON]. Called the Sandthings, they feed on information rather than magic. They have taken the roles of investigators and war reporters to feed their families with fresh information, and are renowned for being a great source of information.

Gavrasratii, Blood and Revolution
While the chosen Legions quested, a Wanderer slave-sacrifice of an ancient bloodline became the Blood Vessel of Taki the God-Queen. She declared REVOLUTION, breaking her chains and freeing slaves. She gathered allies and faithful, their rebel slave armies rising against the law of Rut-Var the Mother-Emperor. When it seemed the revolution could even reach the Obsidian Throne, the curse the Mother-Emperor had cast upon the rebel leaders acted, instantly striking them down as they withered. Without their leaders, the rebels stormed the capital, not realising the Blessed Legions Who Fought Blasphemy had returned. Trapped inside the capital of the Empire, the rebels were cut down and captured, to be led to the altar were a great sacrifice was done by the high commander of the returned Legion in Exile.

However this great sacrifice roused the ancient vessel of Rut-Var, the Mountain Rut-Var itself. Its belly overflowing with the blood of sacrifices, the ancient mountain trembled and cracked, releasing a plume of molten blood which ravaged and sealed the altar as well as the Rutvarium mines. With all these events, the Empire was unable to conduct raids upon the other regions.

As for Taki the God-Queen, she could not be captured and her whereabouts remain unknown.

Gempria: the Blind Empire, and the Kingdom of Two Seasons
With the warnings of the Janitor, the Sandfolks of Laser left. Now that a state of peace had returned to Gempria, the three countries of entered an era of unprecedented decadence. To preface, a few... underlying issues were already affecting the three kingdoms: increasingly rampant sun-blindness, the collapse of the terminal network, and the mass deaths of apothecaries to snake bites to name a few. Although minor and seemingly unrelated, these small issues together played an important role in the collapse of the three nations.

In the Kingdom of Fire Season, the newfound union of Fire and Sun and its new cult of the Phoenix had caused a stellar increase in sun-blindness, turning many Fire-Unlen quite useless. The same happened in the Empire of Eternal Day, save for five individuals: the Five Molten Generals who through their blessing were immune to sun-blindness. Without an enemy to fight as the Sratii were busy with internal affairs, they staged a coup against the blind Sun-Emperor, who didn't see it coming as his last apothecary had died on a snake seminary in Scaple. Corruption and nepotism became then even more deeply rooted in the Empire, leading it to its sure ruin.

Meanwhile in the Kingdom of Night-Season, Shade-Unlen enjoyed the comfort of their houses as usual oblivious to all that was happening outside, and save for the ever magnificent palace of Neetocris, the rest of the Kingdom fell into disrepair, causing a vicious cycle where the degrading exterior caused people to seek even more the comfort of their blessed homes.

Awakening from their slumber thanks to the divine energy of Tim, the Great Spirit Beasts of legends walked the land once more. When they saw the once industrious and beautiful people of Gempria blind, lazy, or both, they were so horrified they decided to intervene. Dethroning the Fire-King and politely asking Neetocris if they could handle matters of the state, the Great Spirit Beasts united the two kingdoms into the Kingdom of Two Seasons which flourished under their wise rule. To deal with the blind, they used their authority over other Spirit Beasts to assist them. To deal with the lazy, they decreeted delivery of printed entertainment to be a privilege reserved to the royal family and Neetocris, forcing the homebound Unlen to leave their homes from time to time to get their daily fix of printed entertainment.

On a minor note, the sponsored printing press went bankrupt due to the spread of printing presses and saturation of the market.

Scaple: Rise of the Snakes
In Scaple, the Unlen of the Adventurer Kingdom lived peaceful lives save for the occasional deadly encounter with venomous snakes. Well, said deadly encounter had become near daily, due to the fact most venomous snakes had disappeared as admiration of their blessed fellows led them to develop wings. And it is much harder to escape a winged snake, as everyone knows, but fortunately the medical science of the Adventurers was peerless and few died of snake bites in Scaple, save for the tourists from Gempria who kept not listening to the warnings.

It is unclear if it was on purpose or not, but the Storm granted the secrets of life of death to winged snakes. The legend tells that one day, the Storm called all spirits of Scaple to meet him, with the eleven first he would reward with the magics of life and death. The winged snakes killed the other faster participants with their venom, and flew with ease past the slower participants, thus the eleven were only winged snakes. And so were they granted the secrets, or so the story says.

Whichever is the truth, the facts were that winged snakes had become quite dangerous, especially the Ten Baghaturs who made sure to remind civilization when it overstepped its bounds. The Ten Baghaturs took disciples among the other winged snakes, and taught them too what they were taught. Now the Winged Snakes have become guardians of the Scaple, and zealous punishers of tourists disrespectful of nature.

Scaple: Adventurer Kingdom
With the problem of snakes, the Adventurer Kingdom even under the wise leadership of Queen Vetriel couldn't expand. They instead became a bit more recluse than before, studying the ruins they had access to and stopping to seek the hidden ruins of the savage dustlands filled with winged snakes. The shamans had tempered their reckless rituals, focusing on the studies of medicine and healing arts with the renowned healer of Scaple.

The people of the Adventurer Kingdom have uncovered more bits of the history of the ruined civilisations of Scaple, a task made difficult when most of the ruins were consumed by the rot, and then by the eternal rot. It seems Scaple was once inhabited by a race of giants who warred at some point with some country from Esulom. This war led to the fall of both civilisations and the scarring of both regions, though how it happened remains unclear.

Wanderers and Dressalia
The Wanderers across the world managed to survive and somewhat thrive, however scattered they were. Clans formed around the Lightbringers, and some found their way back to the Vast Dust by modifying their Familybarges to ride the Dust as well as they rode the Winds. They were saddened to see the still dead skies of the Vast Dust, where winds grew still and Familybarges couldn't fly.

Dressalia grew under its wise Philosiphers, the keepers of knowledge.

Minor Events
The Songbirds have had their living habitats ravaged by the war of Sand and Lasers. They have adapted, but lost their faith into their creator. Only the blessed few Songbirds still worship Ferina.

As the Wailing Star was traveling the skies, it failed to notice the growing island from a seed of Startouched Bounty. To avoid crashing into it, the Wailing Star dodged into the Sun-Phoenix, causing it to burn and scream, leaving it wounded and unable to impart prophecies for a while.

When the last of the Scaple Fever had been eradicated, the Altered Fever finished the job by self-terminating, ending the last trace of Scaple Fever.

Terminals across the world have become clogged from overuse and lack of maintenance. They are unusable now.

An insane Unlen engineer has found a way to become one with the network after years of strange studies. He died in strange circumstances one day, and on his scribbled notes were instructions to fuse your mind to the pipe network. A strange cult is forming around these notes.

The dragon-meteor is powerful, and only a Major Interaction could possibly destroy it. A Minor Interaction would successfully redirect it on another region, though.

Spoiler: The World and what can mostly be found in it (click to show/hide)

The Vast Dust: a great desert often used as the relative center of the world.

Gempria the Land of Two Seasons blessed by Eternal Day: a fertile land to the south of the Vast Dust. The day here is never ending despite the lack of sun, and the year is split into the Fire Season and the Night Season.
> Kingdom of Two Seasons: Unlen Kingdom of mostly Fire-Unlen and Shade-Unlen ruled by the Great Spirit Beasts.
>> The Most Magnificent Home-Palace of Neetocris.
> Unlen Empire of the Eternal Day: Unlen Empire of Unlen who worship Sun.

Scaple the Corrupted Land Eaten By Dust: a land corrupted by eternal rot and eaten by the Vast Dust.
> Adventurer Kingdom: a kingdom founded by a brave explorer who found some sword in a stone.
> The Spreading Corruption: a rot excluded from the cycle of Decay in the center of the Scaple. It spread now over all of Scaple.

The Mountain-Children of Rut-Var: a mountainous region north of the Vast Dust, overshadowed by Rut-Var.
> Gavrasratii, the Unearthed Sratii Empire: a Sratii empire, led by the Sratiitra, Emperor of the Sratii.

Esulom, the Wounded Land: a land of sparse mossy praires mostly eaten by the Vast Dust.
> Sand Kingdom: a Sandfolk Kingdom led by a Sandking.
> Kingdom of Lasers: a Sandfolk Kingdom led by a Council of Sand.

The Night Sky: the Sky above, where satellites live and spin.

The Underground Tunnels: a network of tunnels connecting the regions.

Spoiler: People (click to show/hide)

Wanderers: The Wanderers of Dasala are lightly-fuzzy tall marsupials. As they grew in size and height to better hunt for prey in prairies which existed long ago, evolution stripped them of the ability to glide. Yet they still desire the feeling of sailing the winds.

Fire-Unlen: Tan versions of the Night-Unlen with two joints in their shorter arms, on account of being more average than the Night-Unlen. They can perform tasks alone, but still prefer to live in groups and aid each other, much like their Night-counterparts. No one knows which came first, the Night or the Fire.

Night-Unlen: Pale skinned humanoids with long limbs containing three joints each, giving them great reach. They sometimes have difficulty feeding or cleaning themselves due to their very long limbs and thus have established a complex culture of close family and friends who assist each other with tasks other people consider basic.

Antenna-Unlen: Humanoids with antennae connected to their brains allowing them to feel the satellite network and receive the propaganda of the the Night Sky.

Sandfolks: Elemental-like beings made entirely of sand that form the shape of a humanoid. While they have average-intelligence and capable of limited free-will they mostly act like benign forces of nature, their form of reproduction is that of mitosis and after enough magical energy is harvested into their limestone core they split into two entities, with the Sandfolk being capable of physical interaction by being able to harden their hands and legs to sandstone for shorts period of time through magical expenditure. Each of the Sandies having a core that where the heart would be, a spherical orb made of magical limestone that can take in and expend magical energy and if destroyed they are gone. Their mentality is that of almost servitude, they can only process information if it’s to serve the concept of order otherwise they act like simple constructs.

Sand-things: Sandfolks altered to feed on information rather than magic. Otherwise identical to Sandfolks.

Unlen: unremarkable humanoid mortals who roamed the world before the awakening of the God-Kings.

Sratii: short horned creatures with four arms. Their very sharp horn and claws allow them to dig through hard work without tools.

Spoiler: Notable Things (click to show/hide)

Venomous Snakes: a varied host of venomous snakes. Their abilities and shapes are many.
Winged Snakes: snakes with wings.

Golems: constructs of stone found in Gavrasratii.

Terminal Pipes: pipes connected to a bizarre network.
