[Each Ophiuchus have heard this, be it on the air, from an animal, from the Oracle deep in his mountain sanctuary, or the vision of their god themselves:

The Old Woman angers, and her fury is terrible. The Gods are speaking with her, calming her flames; however, wish to protect the people of their lands.

Scatter to the sacred countries of the First Land. Worry not for those on other parts of this world, we do for them what we can. To each of the countries, you are to tell them to bring their builders, machinery and magic. To bring food and supplies of water. To bring their people, and resources, wood and stone and metal. They must gather at the base of the great mountain.

A grand structure will be erected under the oversight of the Oracle. When it is complete it will be blessed by the Gods all and one, as the greatest shelter during this time of trouble.

This must be complete by the end of this year, or all shall be lost.]

[Each are also told that if negotiations fail or this tithing to the Gods are lackluster or weak, they have authority to take over the rule of the country.]

	[laughs!] They still grumble about it sometime. But even if they did allow you through I doubt Father has returned yet from his visit east.

	Don't worry, it's nice to see a well-enjoyed room. ♥ Now, this dream. Carrying messages for the Gods is not usually one of my responsibilities but this was of the utmost importance. You might want to sit down first. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[this is probably the most serious he's ever seen Narcissus] The Old Woman is angry, as we've all noticed. The Gods want us to be sheltered from her, and they want us to build the shelter. Every country is to bring resources to the base of the great mountain. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	carpedemon 2010-12-13 08:52 am UTC (link)
	A shelter? We've been directed much of our resources for our own people here, but if the Gods have a plan... how much resources? What kind of shelter? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	love_isintheair 2010-12-13 08:57 am UTC (link)
	As much as possible, both people and building materials. We're to judge whether it's enough of an effort or not. I don't know any details about the shelter, the Oracle will instruct us when we get there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	carpedemon 2010-12-13 09:06 am UTC (link)
	From every country, is it? Working together under the guide of the Gods in order to protect ourselves. [mulls this. yes, that could work] The people of Pavo, as you know, are hard working and excellent builders. These times have scared many, but if this can be something that brings us a measure of hope then I'm sure we could inspire many to assist. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	love_isintheair 2010-12-13 09:39 am UTC (link)
	If you don't gather enough, we have instructions to take over the ruling of the country and gather them ourselves. You know that that's the last thing I myself am interested in, but others might not be so reluctant. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	carpedemon 2010-12-13 09:54 am UTC (link)
	Take over? But... [askdj] The Gods don't make requests lightly. How much time? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	love_isintheair 2010-12-13 03:32 pm UTC (link)
	The shelter has to be completed by the end of the year. I'm not sure how long you have before other Ophiuchus start deciding they could do a better job, so it's best to be as fast as possible. Of couse I'll do whatever I can to help. (Reply to this) (Parent)
