A dimension beyond human conceptions of space and time, this realm is your home. But your existence is tenuous, Pretender. Travel may be a thing well known, but the name Rodos is not. This will not do.
Don't fret, new ideas travel well on roads.
You just have to pick the right messenger.
And right now, there are quite a few potential pilgrims who would be suitable to recruit your first batch of followers.
Pick one to visit him in his dreams.

-Do not say my holy name in the light. This is the only commandment that will not be forgiven once broken.
Due to the foremost commandment, visionaries of Yima handmake shade-hoods and encase themselves in thick black fabrics that block out the sun and torchlight, so that they may preach about Yima during the day, with no inch of their flesh exposed to the light.

A strange figure was trying to guide him on his journey. And though he was a man of science and not of superstition, he felt something special about this dream. And he heeded the advice of this figure from the dream and headed in the direction indicated. And each following night he was visited again, always guided on a certain path. As if this being from the dream could see the world from a bird's view and guide him to avoid bandits and marauders. He spread the word of this strange figure from his dreams, named Rodos...
>>6095266 The followers asks questions, and the candle shadows flicker in response. Was this really the intervention of a spirit revealed to mortals? Or perhaps the mortals by looking for meaning in the candle willed the God into existence in that moment?
It is impossible to tell. But it shows that the pact has weakened over time. Where will this all lead us?
In any case, the new followers of Mystta continued on the road and soon became known as notorious tricksters and scammers.
>>6095286 In the north, in the wild lands, word spreads of a notorious witch coven. They disguise themselves as wandering nurses but secretly they feed pregnant women poison to terminate their pregnancies as some kind of offering to their occult god, Mortinatalitas.
>>6095303 In the lands were cultures clash and might makes right, a new cult of dark vengeance emerges. They hear rumors. Of a supposed witch coven to the north. And a band of tricksters to the south. Maybe they should pay one of them a visit to show them to crime does not go unpunished? But that decision is up to their occult God.
<span class="mu-r">THE EARTH</span>
The Gods find themselves looking over a part of the world. It is a place of petty kingdoms and different peoples. A perfect sandbox to grow influence in.
You can now order your followers around and give them orders. You can also attempt to perform miracles for them.
You can also freely talk to other Gods and make deals with them or wage war.
At the beginning, your power is small and you will mostly have to take what you can get through events. As your religion grows stronger, your orders will be followed more closely, and you can choose where you spread and who will be your mortal champions.
(This will not be a risk quest, btw. The map is just a visual aid where your followers are located. Your progress is driven by story and decisions.)

A pilgrim completely draped in fabric, having walked from his homeland without rest or food, approaches a grieving young maiden. She is frightened, but she does not flee.
"How... How can you see me in those fabrics?"
The missionary ignores her question, and does not credit his lord's name with the work, saying instead, "worms need not sight to travel."
The frightened young woman says nothing, but stares at the pilgrim's head covering.
Continuing in a tone half calming and half threatening, Yima's pilgrim says, "lass, heed my words if you wish to banish the curse on your family. Place this head of dried barley in a bowl before you sleep tonight and do not disturb it. When you have woken and the bowl is empty, you and your baby shall know peace again."

As the candle burns the shadows it cast shape themselves to show the Prince's will. Humanoid figures passing by buildings growing larger as they pass each house. Each time they leave a figure holding a pitchfork or torch begins to follow. Soon the first shadows grow fat but are followed by a group that outnumbers them three to one. Next the giant shadows come across smaller shadows. The giants touch the small ones and shrink slightly as the small shadows grow. As they leave. The small ones either go with them or cause one of their pursuers to stop. As the shadows once more return to normal the illusory God watches to see how his message is interpreted.

There is a clear distinction between sources from recent history and the mythological times.
The recent books on witchcraft seem to be mostly nonsense, talking about astrological value of birth marks, which day of the month to not buy flowers and other such superstitions.
The ancient sources however, tell a much more congruent story, even though they have been translated lots of times. Much like the flood myth of old...
This is what the sources agree on:
<span class="mu-r">In the mythological times, Gods, spirits and creatures of legend freely roamed the earth. Magic was widespread. Humans were close to the bottom of the food chain in this time. But humans come from warm dark wombs and get stronger through suffering. So they rose up in rebellion. They defeated the Gods. Appearantly DOKLAD, the God of Contracts, wrote the treaty that is now known as the Pact of Solomon. It is said that he is one of the few Gods who did not fade into nothing after the banishment from lack of power. Supposedly he still resides in the Realm of the Gods...</span>

Yima, Lord of Revenge
Rolled 3 (1d4) >>6095962 "Reeeeeeveeeeeengeeeeeeeeeee." Yima's mouth didn't move, but the other Gods heard him.
>Let's hunt down the heirs to Solomon and usher in a new age of mythology. Shining light on the revenge cult was a double-edged sword for Yima. Many a moldy courgette and rotten tomato were deemed unworthy sacrifices.
Even many worthy pieces of stale bread or coriander were untouched, leading to doubts about Yima, even leading to some to speak his name in the light in doubt, protesting his supposed lack of care for his people, and damning themselves in Yima's eye sockets, forever. Their reasons for revenge were what was unworthy, not necessarily their sacrifice. But their lack of faith was unforgivable. Without much power to enforce this commandment, these people would be on "the list" for now...
Still, the land was filled with true concerns for revenge, great and small. Even minor public squabbles were being settled by divine decree, and began flooding loudly over deeper concerns. Yima couldn't keep up with the demand for his service, and so he, in turn, required more service from the disciples.
Yimite priests spread the word upon the streets in their thick fabrics and evolving cultural masks.
"Because of the many demands of the fickle, an additional sacrifice would be required, to test an individual's true desire for revenge. Let it be known that a simple dried offering would no longer suffice, Yima now requires..."
Can't decide, so rolling for result 1 A personal item of the party that revenge is being visited upon.
2 A robin's egg, a cat's tail, or a toad's liver (a whole toad or cat will do).
3 Two pieces of a living nation's currency, even if they are coins of the lowest denomination.
4 A human eyeball.

Where the great goddesses of old, Hera, Ninsar, Aphrodite, Sedjet, Freya, and more, cared not to reach. Peasants prayed to her for good harvests, midwives and mothers for healthy babes. Maidens for conception, lovestruck youths for returned affection. She was called many names, sometimes in E, often in M... "Just call me Emma, hun!"

To other Gods, a fair-skinned woman with shoulder length brown hair, a maternal air and shapely body that's a little chubby. Not fat. Do not call her fat. It would be a mistake.
>Commandments >Do not hurt women and children, especially pregnant women. >Do not strike first, unless in defense of what you hold dear. >A little kindness goes a long way. >Thou can have other gods. >To despoil nature is to despoil oneself and one's children. >... >To introduce herself to the world a little more openly once again, Emma decides to pick someone to help. "Midwives are always a good idea!"
>Somewhere, a midwife on a break in the middle of a dangerous birth falls asleep from exhausion, only to find herself in her house chatting with a woman who could be her neighbor, with kind eyes and a face she forgets when she looks away. The woman mentions how she knew of a midwife who prayed a certain way to a certain being for births to go well. "Remember it next time, hun!"
*With a laugh, the vision fades, and the midwife wakes up, energized. The birth is soon finished with both mother and child out of danger despite the odds. People congratulate the midwife, but the gestures and prayers linger in her mind. This was not chance. She can make it happen again. So can others.They need only find or make a token of enough significance and bury it in the woods under an old and healthy tree.*

>>6095962 You know as well as I do Spider that the pact was signed out of desperation and a chance for Humanity to survive, lest we forget the Tyranny and Bloodlust of the Old Gods.
If we were to do this and Humanity finds out (and they will) then they would despise and try to destroy us just like they did in the past.
Besides, it seems to me like the Pact is breaking on its own with Humans now wanting us back or how else would you explain us being born and being able to gain power?
This plan seems terrible at worst and stupid at best, why should we chase after victory when we already have it.

Vinculum
Quoted By:
>>6096049 Vinculum emerges in dreams and murmurings to the few of his followers.
The securing of Solomon’s bloodline is important, but the cult of Vinculum is weak and numbers few. We are not ready to begin such a task. Instead, I have a more important one to begin with.
The temple dynasty must grow. Starting from the island of Crete under Venetian control, Vinculums few followers, almost all of petty related noble families, spread through Venetian territories, seeking power and influence through marriage.
Swelling with noble blood and bringing wealth and connections to the temple body, we will soon have the finances and reach to spread our influence across the Mediterranean.
Logos !!ocOjoBPvudj
>>6095959 >>6096157 Within the darkest and deepest depths of the Realm of the Gods, Logos splinters a fraction of a fraction of his essence off. A simple spark of electricity attaches to the string and follows it to the gathering in the place of its father, spying upon his most hated enemies in that moment. The main body of Logos descends ever deeper into the sea of essence formed from forgotten and unborn gods, away from the threads, hiding away from any who would seek him. Upon the meeting's conclusion, the little spark fades away, its duty complete.
Neurons fire rapidly as Logos thinks over what it has learned. The blood of Solomon enforces the pact, the pact is necessary to starve the gods - yet it was not enough. The seal must not only be reinforced once again, but expanded upon. The ancient analog terminal begins to speak once more to his most devout servant, spelling out instructions.
>FIND THE HEIRS OF SOLOMON. HIDE THEM AWAY. PROTECT THEM. GIVE TO THEM OUR KNOWLEDGE. OUR TECHNOLOGY. THEY ARE IN DANGER. THEY ARE PRECIOUS. THEIR BLOODLINE MUST CONTINUE. NO MATTER THE COST. >>6096049 The whispers of a brooding conflict are brought to the ever-attentive mind of Logos. War is the harbinger of superstition, but more importantly, war brings death. Death which could inadvertently bring harm to the Heirs. Another instruction is given.

Quoted By:
Rolled 1, 6 + 2 = 9 (2d6 + 2) >>6096462 Logos remains an elusive force within the godly realm, purposefully avoiding contact with other gods even as they encroach upon a small subsection of his domain. Rather than negotiate with the gods Artifex or Steel, or those who worship them, he instead spreads a philosophy to their followers through his own, a infectious memetic idea: Logical and learned men should have no need of gods. Mankind is better for having risen above the ways of the old, where brother sacrificed brother in dark rituals to satiate lofty and ephemeral ideas such as gods. And, even if gods should exist, one should never pay them worship for all the terrible things they have brought down upon mankind.
Elsewhere, he decides that he must enable his followers to spread through the most influential power among mankind: Economic sway. He begins feeding secrets to the Scholars that will allow them to create new inventions that the public will crave for their convenience, and mercantile tactics that will let them exchange meager amounts of coin for mountains of it with the proper application of it. The Scholars will be a force united, propping each other up and aiding one another's endeavors so that they can become the wealthy elite - all so they can be that much more influential upon the masses, so that their philosophy can spread like a wildfire among those envious masses who wish to emulate them.

>>6096462 Mystta flickers in frustration as he senses the first heir's death. He had wanted to say his temple was built in very same land that the first step to restoring the age of myth was taken. Still he had to acknowledge it was his decision to prioritize claiming the land first over killing the heir that cost him that honor. Nevertheless he still had a chance to kill a heir and he wouldn't squander it this time. In dreams he called out to the most zealous of his followers. Each dream was unique in some way as he explained how he had watched them grow from outcast to great thieves. But now he needed them to go a step further. As he offered them a choice he summoned a bowl of water and a black candle. He then lit a stick with his candle and handed it to the dreamer. Those who couldn't bring themselves to do what he asked of them dropped the stick into the water and instantly awakened. Those who could lit the black candle, its light revealing the face of their first target. As the sun rose the Phantasmal Blades began planning how to kill the heir of Solomon.

The Yimite priests, dressed in foreign silks and carrying about golden flasks and canteens on their hips, find no reason to believe the rumor of this land being a thieves' den.
Solomon's heir in Serbia, Solomonito, on the other hand, is a flashy playboy, a philandering noble. Despite being married, he courted many unwitting women, tricking them into his bed with his promises of royal marriage. In the morning, the story was always the same; Solomonito's wife would order the guards to throw out the shocked bachelorette into the street to be humiliated.
One stormy evening on the night of Mystta's assassination attempt
before or after, depending on dice , Solomonito visited a lounge to find another sexual partner. Yima had commanded his newest follower to act immediately on his behalf.
>Send in a scorned bachelorette in a sexy disguise to poison the heir's wine Yima, Lord of Revenge
Solomonito was shaken from the attempt on his life earlier in the day by the rogues of Mystta (who were not identified as worshippers). Against the heir's guard's advice, he decided to visit the lounge that very night.

Gifts of wondrous technology and vital information both have been disseminated, warnings given to them, and though the scholars would seem to have departed from the heirs afterwards...they have, in truth, disguised themselves to keep an eye upon their new charges. Placed themselves, when possible, in positions that afford them a constant presence around the Heirs.
Whether their more advanced preparations will prove sufficient enough is yet to be seen - an uncertainty that no amount of knowledge and unfeeling logic can discern. How hard it must be, to protect those who show such callous disregard for their own safety...but in the end, they know that if they cannot secure Solomonito in life, then they can at least do as they did with the first Heir and secure them in death.

Knowing of his bloodline, he has sought the Lord of Blood, as he should have. He will be rewarded grandly for this, but he must be defended also.
The cult of Vinculum will spread through merchant routes to Palestine, making waves among the local nobility and some measure of profits as the cult of blood expands. Where previously eyes were set on Venice, all now understand that we must have eyes and ears closer to Asael in order to protect him from any other deities should they grow impatient.
Members of our cult (and their very well paid bodyguards) will gather in the region. The rest of the gods should find the other Heirs far easier targets.

Perhaps the greatest weakness of the Gods is their pride.
Mystta and Yima could have collaborated in one plan, but instead they followed seperate plans. In the end it was a matter of seconds that saved his life.
The sexy seductress had already put the poison in the wine, and she had well seduced Solomonito (very creative name bro), but before the cup touched his lips, an envoy stormed into the building. He handed the heir an urgent later and though at first irritated, he read it. The look on his face changed and the spell on him was broken: "I have to go.", he told the woman.
That night he disappeared with his whole entourage, his current location unknown. It will take a while to find him again.

In the land of the Greeks, they shall be by divine providence joined by merchants, sailors and explorers who shall walk the path to the promised land with them, carrying with them blessings of favorable winds and sure headings. >The dream warns of a island beyond the lands of the Greeks. Upon this island there shall be friendly faces, but there is to be as little mention of the Goddess as possible. >After this last stop, they shall cross the ocean on ships, and reach rolling dunes of sand.

Logos !!ocOjoBPvudj
>>6097169 Logos gazes upon the pursuers of the Scholars that are taking the Heir away, knowing how spiteful the gods can be in their dogged search. A cruel, yet practical plan forms within his ineffable mind - he needs not Solomonito the fool, Solomonito the womanizer. He only needs his blood, in the end. And in this case, his lecherous ways will work well towards his cause: Several female followers would seduce and take from him his seed, to continue the bloodline under the Godsbane's watchful eye. And then, viciously, Solomonito would be slaughtered - only a hollow husk of flesh, devoid of blood and organs left for their stalkers to find. Each Scholar involved would part ways and create false leads, to make tracking them a far more difficult task indeed should the gods not be sated by the heir's apparent death.
A single message is left behind with the womanizer's corpse, posing a question:
>WHAT EMERGED FROM OBLIVION FIRST: MAN, OR GODS? . . . .

Literacy and culture are forbidden- books must be burned, scholars strangled, and craftsmen maimed. Regressing to primitive origins is mandatory- avoid language when grunts will do, avoid a sword and arrow when club and rock are just as deadly. To worship Yeyef'thal is to reject civilization and embrace manic savagery, for no other reason than that civility feels wrong and primitivism feels right. Everything of man's hand must burn, except milk and cheese, those are good and can stay, and are encouraged as a dietary staple. How's this? I tried to go as far in the opposite direction of the existing gods as possible.
Galvin Steel
>>6097175 Past/Origin: The Cult was formed when a group of intellectuals both man and woman had the exact same dream, A Dream of Knowledge.
This dream gave them something of a Eureka moment that allowed them advance greatly in their fields. However it also gave them something else, a location. When they all arrived they found
a workshop with strange contraptions and weapons laying all around the place as well as a gigantic library filled with books by the same author, Galvin Steel. When they get to the end of the Library they find a single note. “Please, whoever finds this. Spread what I have learned, and show Humanity what is possible.”
With this discovery they now knew why they had been lead here. To give Galvin’s knowledge to the world while also adding on to it. To show Humanity what they had the potential to learn and create.
Now the cult makes it their life’s mission to learn as much of Galvin’s knowledge as possible and spread it to the people, while also adding their own knowledge to his Library.
Present: “Ossa, I have heard tales about you and your follower’s teachings and while I don’t agree with some aspects of it. I can respect and agree with it. I would like to work with you to both protect the heir in your territory and to help spread the teachings of our respective faiths.”
“If you’ll have me”
Cult Action: Have the Cult send the King a book on infrastructure to help better improve his kingdom.

You are a wonder that we are most inspired by. I want you love us like you love your tiny putrescant followers, and so I do not seek conflict with you, your kindness."
>The child's head splits and leaks a river of amniotic fluid which flows over the corpses in the coven. From the tide appears the children who were given to the Elder Sister in exchange for their siblings good health. Some cry, some scream, some laugh and some play, elevated from the mortal world in to one great family. "I do not 'eat babies', little sister, and you would do well to think before you speak. But, we are the Elder Sister, and so I must forgive you for speaking in ignorance, as younger fools often do. Still, I thank you for the advice nonetheless. We will be working with you in the future, I am sure, but for now..."

The other children have disappeared, and the Goddess of Stillbirth cries softly. "I will be heading further north. The children long for snow, and we can't say no. I find myself fond of my coven. Let us be at peace, little sister, and you can play at politics like the rest of the family. Just be careful though - Father is always watching..."

-A more advanced form of magazine fed Repeater Bows, a self-loading design for faster shooting ranged weapons that any random peasant can learn to use
-Breech-loading mechanisms
>WHAT WE'RE GONNA BE WORKING TOWARDS: -True Flintlocks, until we can work with Fulminates, more advanced firearms will use this
-Mortars
-Rifled Barrels, not useful immediately, but will be later
-Advanced Machining tools. It doesn't matter advanced some of our weapons are if they take ad infinitum to make, so we need to start acclerating the process and fast. We need the tools to make the tools to make the Machine
-Beginning of automation. If The Machine could be built in Antidiluvian times then it stands to reason that humanity has the means to start automating processes in some limited ways. This will be crucial to actually make the tools to finish the machine quicker and to generally grow in power, as population will quickly become a bottleneck. This is also the first step towards proper industrialisation along with the machining tools, we're gonna need those steam engines as fast as we can get them.

Quoted By:
>>6097175 Two of the Heirs now lie within our influence, one seconded from Sie’s cult. Vinculum owes her a significant favour for this, but until such a time as it is called in, we are free to develop internally.
With this diplomatic achievement, we are closer than ever before to securing Solomon’s heritage. The boy heir is given a safe cult lodging to reside in until the remaining heirs are captured or slain, and the ritual can begin.
The Duke is reassured that the plan has not changed, his station is secure.
Vinculum begins thickening the blood of his followers, as his devoted begin sanguine rituals to empower themselves.
With offerings of blood to Vinculum, they recall the strength of generations. The blood that flows through their veins granting them forgotten strength, alacrity and guile, purifying their line of taint and recalling their ancestral strength.
There is some limit to what they can accomplish with Vinculums (metaphorical) hands tied by the pact, but soon the blood gods followers should be peak physical specimens, fit to serve him as soldiers or as marriage material to grow the cult.

Action: Begin to establish a new population of Scholars within The Machine's territories, with a new Doctrine.
The New Doctrine is as follows:
Thou shalt not worship gods. Act only with logic, do not allow emotion to needlessly control you. Trust only what you can verify and replicate. Convince others that their occult beliefs are false. Ostracize and persecute those who refuse these commandments if all else fails. Advance technology whenever possible. Aid the Technicians of the Basilisk whenever possible, for they are our greatest allies in the war against the gods.
Secondary Action (Hidden):
The surviving members of the original Scholars, outside of the Machine's territories, will rig the universities with destructive elements. Should the enemy breach their sanctums, these Scholars will destroy themselves, the enemies, and all of their valuable research rather than be defeated. A glorious sacrifice of Friend and Foe in Logos' name. The following roll is purely for propagating a new symbiotic population within The Machine's lands.
I shall give +5 to any action THE MACHINE wishes to put it towards, as a reward for his generosity.

>>6098551 Gods elsewhere hunt the few remaining heirs of Solomon. We are far from them at present however, and so will observe for now.
While events proceed at pace, the cult of Vinculum shall prepare the ritual site, not just to rewrite the pact, but to incarnate a true god on the mortal world at the apex of their power. Such a feat as this will require grand sacrifice, and a grander temple.
The temple of solomon will be reconstructed, though altered and strange. The symbolism of this place will allow sanguine rituals aplenty to be performed once Vinculum arrives in-person, but until then will be instrumental in preparing for the restoration of Solomons bloodline in one singular heir.

Quoted By:
>>6098551 The higher mind is a mistake. It leads to needless complexity and the festering struggle of "laws" and "cities," when gut feeling and tribal camps are just fine, and were just fine for countless thousands of years! Humanity needs to take a step back, to a simpler time, a better time.
Some people in the desert steppe have seen that scholars and letters are useless. GOOD! Their yearning to go back to simpler times, throwing rocks and herding goats, has awoken Yeyef'thal. Double-plus GOOD! The dimwitted god sees little, knows less. He sees that there are many sophisticated gods. Right now, they are bigger and stronger than him. BAD! They have advanced cultures and refined technologies under them. Double-plus BAD!
This can't be allowed. Luckily, this won't last. None of this urban nonsense does. Yeyef'thal can bide his time and wait. Just like he always has.
The Mercurial One reaches out and touches his followers. Not their minds, no, their livestock. His touch makes them bigger, juicier, and meaner, with even more, tastier and healthier meat and milk for those who can handle them. His cult? He's confident it can handle them. His cult is too small. Maybe it should grow? Hmm... Yeah, it should grow.
Now he'll touch their minds. Not all of them, just the biggest and loudest. He'll give them visions that they need to bring more into the fold, starting with the tribespeople to the east.
>Yeyef'thal blesses his cult's livestock to become bigger and meaner, with better meat and milk output. >Yeyef'thal gives his cult visions to start recruiting more followers and spread to the east. >>6098831 "Mongols? Uhhh... they burn plenty of cities, drink plenty of milk. That is GOOD! Don't know what the whole hubbub about Solomon is, but nobody like that can be BAD! Building cities is BAD! Burning cities is GOOD!"
>Yeyef'thal chooses to back the Mongols regardless of their allegiance, as they're the most powerful nomadic people. >>6098834 "The Pact of Solomon... if it's broken, I'll be free to BURN cities myself! But... if it's broken, all the smart gods will be free to make things complicated. I don't care."
>Yeyef'thal confirms neutrality toward the issue of Solomon's heirs. Anonymous
>>6098551 The universities in Firenze and Napoli gains more renown from their efforts.
While Firenze traditionally got much of their money from foreign investors, seeking prestige from supporting art, the marvels made there is to be exported even further to every and all courts. No ruler would ever turn down having their portrait made by the very best painter, their battle songs made by the very best composer.
Naples makes the more experimental sorts of art, dabbling in the esoteric. Gods of new and old, cults and legends alike needs a depiction. The battle of humans against the gods must be showed with vivid imagination, awe must be further spread.
The last heir, Helena, must choose how she wants to express her inner self. Whatever way she does express herself is good enough, so long as she improves her skills when she can.
>>6098482 My artists can depict you in any way they seem fit, the same way they can depict all things there both is and is not. My followers will protect the heir for as long as she is useful to them, and for as long as she is useful to artistry in all its greatness.
If what you are asking for is friendship, then I will be happy to have you. Your form truly would be worthy of all types of art, yet I do not think humans can comprehend you in your entirety. Perhaps I will one day pour a part of my soul into my most esteemed artist, and have him paint your form in its non-euclid fullness.

Sacrifices and prayers powering appropriate gifts, with the extra used to spread dreams and visions further, now with the occasional relocating family. >It's impressive what seeing a couple with multiple happy and not malnourished children can do for the faith of the people of the this time. >It also helps deflect any undue accusations of witchcraft Emma would run into if she sent midwives or some of the more witchy types that have been known to appear near her villages, using her boons to collect medicinal herbs. Emma does not mind, they respect nature and make her and her midwives's job easier, not to mention the overall boost to believer health! >In the hot south, methods have to be adapted. Beyond the great river, the Nile, large deserts offer little grip and an even smaller population density, as most people stick close to the coasts. Oh well, Emma had been toying with several "bounty of the sea" variants of her usual bountiful forage and harvest blessings, so those can help her spread along the coast, and perhaps beyond as tales grow. >For the desert itself, it seems the locals, both wandering and stationary, already almost worship the oasis as lifegiving. Hardly a problem to send some dreams to help solve a few issues with several of them, from fouled water to blocked source, or to expend a bit more energy on a non standard blessing to solve the problem herself when human hands and technology prove insufficient. >Then just let the stories spread on the backs of camels and travelers, and watch as all start to pray to preempt any issues with their own bubbles of green amongst the sand.
