We shall be a great, kind presence, sheltering and listening, not a booming god of violence and destruction.
Quite so, but we could do with a bit of mystery and focused power too.

Also did anyone notice the stability lowering.
Didn't read the thread, did you? Of course our stability is going down; we increased our inner fire, and volcanos are not usually know for their stability.


> Hurry here! First help the birthing woman before she dies in labour! Increasing your strength of Life to do so, and increasing your knowledge as you do so. Give the child your blessing.

> Investigate the great disturbance in the forest next. Increase your Awareness so that you can tell what it is, and perhaps why it is there. Know if those there travel the waterways. Know how they change the earth and forest. Know if they are untoward.
> If the villagers do not know, send their wisest the visions of the disturbance you collected, and where that disturbance is in relation to them.
> Create a small spring to fill your stream, balancing between snowmelt and groundwater, so that neither will ever be depleted.

Everything He said, It sounds the most logical. Well, as logical as being a mountain can be.

Should have guessed that(no more posting stuff when asleep). Anyway, some vulcanoes are quite stable, it just that Plinean Vulcanoes keep blowing themselves up. Strombolian and Hawaian vulcanos are much more stable.
Therefore:
Wheater
Fire:
-Inner Flame: Allows for an extra sublevel per level(I think)
-Vents: Should lower the internal pressure, therefore limiting the explosion

So many things to put points into! I can't decide!

Well, okay. Actions.

Lets try and bless that woman and her child, as requested. We should also send the wise people of he village visions, like suggested. so for that, I guess we want points in thought - prayers, and visions?

Err... Bless her child how? I don't think she'd appreciate a 9 armed hulking mass of vomit and muscle.

Gift of life? Make the kid healthy and the delivery easy, if possible, give the kid a special sensibilities to things around.

fire (inner flame, and vents if understood this new rule) and water (spring)

and gift that kid with good health. do not forget to ensure his mother's survival as well.

+1 on dreams to villagers for disturbance.

Weather, so that we have all the main skills.
Furthermore: Fire + inner flame and vent

I want to go with this choice. But if that birthing is important, not really sure if it's a payer or a request for aid then maybe
Life + bloom + wither (unless we can have bloom twice)
Fire + inner flame + vent

Edited for:
Okay, I guess I didn't explain it clearly enough. When you pick a major skill now, (which you can do twice), you can pick 2 subskills under it (meaning you can get 4 subskills per turn).

 When choosing Life, either put both secondary points in bloom, or if else another option involving our blessing appears, such as fortitude (which will give the mother and child enough strength to survive), put one secondary point in that, and one in bloom.
 When choosing Awareness, put one secondary point in ' of mind and the other in ' of forest.

(Also, it seemed like the question marks I see beside each skill should be changing, but they are not, so does this mean there are special symbols there that my browser/OS doesn't display?)

Imagine a cool peice of sky-blue and milk-white marble about 3cm by 2cm and by 0.5cm, containing a tiny 2mm malacolite crystal. Now imagine the miles of metamorphic rock it's embedded in that no pick or chisel will ever touch. Then, imagine that those miles will melt back into their mantle long before any telescope even refracts an image of their planet. The watchers will be so excited to have that image too.

Those are little boxes, some of which contain checkmarks. out of curiosity, what is your browser? I'm using firefox, and I have no trouble.
