Who: Everyone
Where: Within the Sacred City
When: King's Year 199
What:

[Slowly, the upheaval of the land subsides with each successive flash. Others, one of the thousands and thousands of people find symbols themselves and those few brave, willing touch them.

The land, scattered with tents and crude structures of wood and metal, has become verdant and green. Lush grass, trees all sway in a soft breeze, under the gentle warmth of the sun you once remembered and a sky, perfect and blue.

Creatures, familiar or new, depending on where you once lived, now roam, also exploring the expansive new, wild place in which you live.

In the distance, to the far south, the great doors have vanished.]

[Outside... there is nothing.]

	You look well. How...? Did you find one of the symbols the gods left? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ghostduster 2010-12-21 02:23 am UTC (link)
	No, but I felt the wave go out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	time_andagain 2010-12-21 02:27 am UTC (link)
	[nods] ... We really did it. And they all protected us. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ghostduster 2010-12-21 02:33 am UTC (link)
	[nods] I shouldn't have doubted. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	time_andagain 2010-12-21 02:40 am UTC (link)
	I wish I understood more about them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ghostduster 2010-12-21 03:10 am UTC (link)
	... same, I guess. I mean, they're sort of unknowable by nature. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	time_andagain 2010-12-21 03:19 am UTC (link)
	I know. But we didn't really learn the first thing about them in Cepheus. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ghostduster 2010-12-21 03:28 am UTC (link)
	Really? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	time_andagain 2010-12-21 03:33 am UTC (link)
	They scorned magic and gifts of the gods. That's why a lot of them chose to stay behind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ghostduster 2010-12-21 03:38 am UTC (link)
	But Skylos came. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	time_andagain 2010-12-21 03:39 am UTC (link)
	Well, of course. And Red and Ceres and the others too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ghostduster 2010-12-21 03:43 am UTC (link)
	Them too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	time_andagain 2010-12-21 03:47 am UTC (link)
	Still... all those who were lost, and the Oracle's sacrifice... I'd like to honour them somehow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ghostduster 2010-12-21 04:25 am UTC (link)
	How? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	time_andagain 2010-12-21 04:34 am UTC (link)
	I'm not sure... maybe we could build something in their memory. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ghostduster 2010-12-21 04:49 am UTC (link)
	Like a memorial? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	time_andagain 2010-12-21 04:53 am UTC (link)
	Yes. It feels wrong to simply forget those that were lost and those who sacrificed themselves to save us. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ghostduster 2010-12-21 05:13 am UTC (link)
	Mmm. I'm no good at building, but... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	time_andagain 2010-12-21 05:22 am UTC (link)
	I can build. But I don't know anything about what symbols to use or which gods to dedicate to, so I would appreciate some help. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ghostduster 2010-12-21 05:24 am UTC (link)
	... that I could definitely help with. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	time_andagain 2010-12-21 05:29 am UTC (link)
	Alright. Thank you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ghostduster 2010-12-21 05:32 am UTC (link)
	No problem. (Reply to this) (Parent)
