>>5537883You spend a good hour flying left to right, orienting distraught lizards of various size to clean the mess made by the food carrier.
Fortunately, no new problem emerged in the mean time.
The light of hope fickles among Xamaniqinqu eyes.
"See that stego? He is more clever than his skink - not a hard bar to overcome, I agree - and refused to get in the too narrow street! And for once, Saurus are punching the correct dissenters!
And... is that Kroxigor... throwing out and picking a new tool by himself?"
Things seems to be under control - for now - so both of you quickly fly toward a small temple.
"Ok, so this is not our most powerful magus, but the most tolerable one. Meet g'Doung."
A few skinks attendants scutter and hide in the darkness.
The fat blob seems asleep. It draws on for several long, long minutes spent in the moist dim-lit temple.
Then, he opens his eyes.
>"Greeting, revered g'Doung. I come in peace, in hope of alliance with your people."The fat blob remains mute. Your companion skink seems really annoyed.
"They're always like this. We have to be patient."
The frog-like creature still does not talk. You distinctly hear some water drop condensing and falling in several basins, creating an eerily atmosphere.
Then, the frog speaks.
"Imagine a world where black elves won the seventh age rebellion, by maintaining their alliance with the black dwarves.
Slaver on land with infernal machines, slaver on sea with boats. Mixes. Elven iron hand and mastery on how to get the most of a prisoner, agility for the manual crafts.
Boats propelled by infernal engines on water iron roads floating on water. This world still struggle with chaos, but become more organized. The mother rises from the order, granting more divination powers.
In that world, or maybe ours, an equitainan nobleborn daughter. Entitled to the inheritance of all of her father's land, and her struggle to marry for love instead of political gains.
Both of her loves are vampires of their own kind : One being an old count eager for power, fortune and fresh blood, the second feeding on her ambition and career.
Examinate closely both side : will that choice reinforce the Mother, or the Father's powers?
As is the natural order : cat eats mouse. But mouse beating up cat : is that lawful or chaotic? Is that good or bad? How does the gods benefits for that?
That mouse, winning the fight. Is that from might? Is that might his own or gained through lucky encounter?
Else, is that from luck? Is luck aligned to Father's love of unpredictability, or Mother's way to favor her chosen children?
Hear my prophecy : Once rocks will rain from the sky and the prey overcomes the hunter, the challenges to overcome will draw the world to the tenth age."
