[ THE WARRENS ]
At present, there was currently only two members of the Woldorian Pantheon I haven't yet had the pleasure to meet. There was the mysterious Woldorian God of Thunder, Warichud, and then the equally mysterious Demigod over hunting, Oggthorn. I didn't suppose it was easy for me to find and meet Oggthorn. He would naturally always be out on the prowl, in the middle of the hunt. But Warichud... well, I had thought he was harder to pin down, but lately, I received something I believed was linked to him somehow.
Above the Warrens country of Woldoria, there was a strange and near constant source of radio emissions and data waves. Though, nobody really knew why. I guessed I could have simply phoned or asked Eikn about it, since she was always present to mingle with Woldorian and non-Woldorian entities alike. But my wanderlust possessed me to seek it out myself and have a see, and what I saw was something gigantic above the clouds.
[JOCO] "It's a... big heptagon thingy."
[MAJORDOMO] "Kind of reminds me of-"
[JOCO] "Me?"
[MAJORDOMO] "No, the rainbow gates in Woldor's realm."
[JOCO] "Well I'm a rainbow too..."
[MAJORDOMO] "You look like a gummy worm candy someone threw away ten years ago."
Well, if it's like the rainbow gates, surely I can pass through then, right?
[ELA-RE] "I'm not sure you're ready for him. He would be a handful, based on what I know."
'Explain.'
[ELA-RE] "Warichud may attack you."
'Huh? But why? I haven't ever personally slighted him.'
[ELA-RE] "I'm sure he could come up with some reason. He is a... agnostic, let's say. He modified himself to become more like a logical machine. In many ways, he actually does think like a true computer. I'd say he's the real machine god, when it comes down to it."
'Agnostic?'
[ELA-RE] "Do you know how he openly assists human development?"
I nodded.
[ELA-RE] "Okay... he's an inverse of Lord Akasa. Akasa believes that mortals can surpass the gods, and is waiting for it. Warichud is trying to MAKE them better than us as we speak, by force if necessary. In other words, he's constantly working to improve the human model. It's a... twisted vision, to say the least..."
'Some day, I think I will have to face him, as I am undergoing the trials of Woldor in the World of Mythology.'
[ELA-RE] "Oh, then he will definitely attack you. If you haven't already beaten him yet in the trials of the pantheon, he will assume, under his sense of logic, you've come to scout his weaknesses or flaws early. He will deduce that logically this is an attempt to cheat or gain an advantage in the trials outside of the trials. He will try his best to ward you off."
'Is he really that strong? I heard he's clashed with Sivil the Pride before.'
