And ask Ishamael what the consequences of bringing a second raiding party to Athar would entail. Because we just lied and Danal will come and be living proof that we did.

Affi posted:Because we just lied and Danal will come and be living proof that we did. Not necessarily. As others have mentioned before, we lived in grass huts, not exactly hard to rebuild. And it would be logical to assume that Asherah didn't wipe out the cattle that WASN'T actively escaping and killing their High Priest. But hey, we were 5 at the time, and those thoughts wouldn't have occurred to us because our world was being turned upside down on us, so we just assumed the place was wiped out. And since we were making a new life in Zepath, we just never devoted anymore critical thinking to it.

Besides, Athar is one cannibal village; we claimed it was wiped out, not every village that might exist on the coast. I'd be surprised if news of Danal's exploits spread explicitly enough that the men of other cities heard that he'd been to Athar and brought back treasure and barbarians. More likely it'll be heard that he travelled into demon controlled lands, fought cannibals, and came back in glory. Nobody's going to come to us all pissed off and accuse us of claiming that every Demon farm had been wiped out.

There Bias Two posted:I have a different theory to propose: EVERYONE with a soul or [???] is El. We know from the creation stories that man was created from the Flesh of El, so maybe there's this cosmic-level hoarding of El-flesh that's going on to try to "reclaim" divinity. It would explain why gaining [???] seems to give us intuitive knowledge of reality: Because as we gain [???], we gain back more of our knowledge of the universe. Maybe Labaras made a covenant with El to grant bits of his Flesh to humanity when we perform great deeds or personal sacrifices (e.g. Give us your Flesh and we shall return it to you when we die.)

And ask Ishamael what the consequences of bringing a second raiding party to Athar would entail. As for telling Rimush, I think the case for "oh wow we were mistaken, they weren't wiped out" is a pretty decent plan; I suggested telling him the flat truth because he seems like a good man, and he's family, officially, so I felt like he should be considered in-group. In reality it was all a ruse to get Diog to answer a question I asked in October. That is a lie. I'm actually just bad at voting based on what Enkidel actually does, rather than whatever I happened to vote for last round. I'm glad, at least, that I was able to create some measure of wise goon consensus on an issue.

I stand by my point We were young, our entire life just got flipped on its head, and we have been up to quite a bit since we moved to Zepath. Other than occasionally asking goat deities about our Uncle, we never really gave much thought to Athar.

I think when we wake up drained of [???] and with Rimush's probably daughter in bed, we may have more important things to explain away other than Athar not having been wiped off the map, if he finds out what happened. Which, based on our track record of running off to apologize for things, is almost bound to happen.

You are not leaving without your Prize... despite the danger, you will search for it. Where is it... you are lost in this forest with danger closing in on all sides. You know where it is if... if you just remember.... Beneath your feet the radiant heat of the sun rises from the forest floor gently into the night time air, carrying up with it, small bits of water, bits too small to be seen by the eye, but which are suspended in the air... The warm air carries the water upwards till it reaches the cool air of the night, above the tree line and then cools itself as the hot and warm air mix. And where they mix, the water vapor condenses into a drop of water upon the leaf and falls towards the forest floor. And as you watch the drop of water plummet, every detail around you, you can see with perfect and complete clarity. You know how many leaves are upon a certain tree, you see a dragonfly and know with certainty the moment it was hatched, you see the leaves upon the forest floor and know that two deer walked by the spot four months, two days and one hour ago... You can see... you can see everything how it is now, know then what caused it and what will come... you can see... you know how... how all of it is connected... everything is connected... You find Danal's prize and you whisper it into his ear, he realizes the information as if he recalled it himself, but you hardly care if he finds it now, his fate hardly matters, the answers to all of your questions are unfurling before your eyes like a cloth which grows forever in each direction, yet each fiber is clear to you...

Realize that the answer to who our father is will likely be "you have no father", "El", "Asherah" or "Some Angel". Maybe "Some demon". That question is not interesting to me at all. We really need to Wake up Because the last time we pushed ourselves we almost ate our best friends. And I do not want to wake up in a bed with no naked slave girl but really bloody sheets. And a full stomach. But i'm not going to vote for waking up. I'm going to B. Seek Knowledge. Affi fucked around with this message at 21:37 on May 14, 2014 |

Can't believe I am actually saying this but: think of what Ishamal would tell us. We aren't to over extend ourselves, right? We know for a fact pointing out Mt. Har caused [???] to deplete. Pointing out the Prize likely did as well. What do you think will happen if we divine an answer from nothing at all, or just in general flood our consciousness with knowledge?

I'll bet we get a decent pat on the head somewhere down the line for having the foresight not to push ourselves here, as opposed to pushing ourselves now, eating someone/blacking out, having our Melachim Advocates save our rear end again as we wake up on the beach and getting a stern talking to. Although it'd be interesting to see what the beach looks like now, I wonder if anything's gone down lately, after Asahel and Azz's silence and all that. Maybe showing restraint here will convince Ishamal that we're finally growing up and he'll tell us some more poo poo!
