Kae'lith snorts, rolling her eyes and turning her cheek like a disgusted schoolgirl.  Religion has never interested her—if a god never did anything for her, why should she owe it her life?  "I don't understand these...religious types," she mumbles, more to herself than anyone else, "If someone can't think for themselves, they should just stop thinking at all."

Indygo wonders how a kran, an asexual being, could be the son of anyone let alone Talad himself.

OOC
Just to answer to all the OOC posts and reply to IC posts.

[dalat, krans can max be 2.1 meters tall :)]

* Peacer breaks his meditation and smiles a bit at the kran and his aura before watching him curiously "Hmm, might watch this one" he thinks and relaxes trying to learn more from his aura

This is what can cause suspicion and fear, the fact that he is extremely tall.


_____________

Indygo wonders how a kran, an asexual being, could be the son of anyone let alone Talad himself.

He claims to be grown from the "Soil of Talad" (stop nitpicking)

_____________

* Siteri Kidachi is disappointed at his lack of desire to reconcile Talad and Laanx.

He says that Lannx is a traitor and a trickster. That Lannx has no place in Yliakum for not forgiving Talads mistake and Lannx's jelousy of Talad.

_____________

*stood at a Hydlaa plaza, "This is nothing more but an imposter!" he shouted, "Laanx is the true god! The iron temple stands as a momument to his greatness!"

Dalat turns to Gyerfry and says, "The Iron tample is a symbol of how the god of the crystal has seduced the inhabitants through trickery and fear. Hydlaa is the place of Talad, let it stay his." Dalat turns away to tand to the furnace.

*Gyerfry grunts at the reply, "It was the sheer incompitanceof your god that caused Laanx such trauma. Maybe Talad is the one to appologise. That is my stand right now. I follow Laanx out of my own free will!" He leened over, "Son of Talad, if only our gods were at piece..... This debate wouldn't even happen.... I do belive you when you say you are infact his son." He took a drink of his water, getting lost in thought.

[for the second time, it's Laanx and not Lannx ;) ]

* ThomPhoenix thinks that this Kran will only cause chaos by fighting the fictive Laanx.

Quitarias walks to Harnquists and hears the someone is proclaiming to be the king of kran and muters to himself "i wonder where do we get all the "Nobles" from"

OOC: you shouldnt run around saying you are a king of something unless people agree to that and it turns to be a decent RP like "Xillix's Ochtarc Play" or something like it anyway and who elected you kind certainly not me

[No one elected Xillix, very few people agreed to Xillix being Octarch, and there were major problems with the RP surrounding that whole mess.  The devs stepped in and basically said "This is wrong.  You cannot do this.  This never happened."]

You said it was decent. It was stopped by the devs so it obviously wasn't. How did he prove your point?
I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(

OOC: Just to make it clear, Dalat is claiming that he is the king of the Kran and their saviour. To make a biblical example, Jesus claimed to be King of the Jews. Dalat is not exactly claiming to be their ruler as such, he is saying it as their saviour and Talads representation.

[Jesus was crucified under a sign that said he was the king of jews, though I can't find where Jesus himself is recorded saying it, you might want to read John 19:18-22 for some interesting things about it.

But let's not turn this into a religious discussion, this should be kept on-topic. :)

*edit as of 11-10-06; 5:43PM GMT-6*
I am quite off topic. I shall fix the situation, since I was going to have something IC here anyway, just had to leave before I could write it. ^^; ]

"I do not doubt what he has said, this Kran." A voice shouted out near the edge of the crowd. There stood a tan and white enkidukai, garbed in a hunter's leather clothing. Strung over his small shoulders was a longbow. A few people look his way, questioning his sudden and full faith in the one who recently claimed to be the 'son' of a god.
"Is it not written in the books of lore, that the beings known as Kran were born of the solid ground, by the God Talad?" he takes off his bow, and relaxes a bit. "If you do not believe me, go to the libraries and read yourself!

 "But of course, that is if you believe in Gods in the first place..."

[OOC: This is, of course, assuming that -some- version of the history is in our history books.. as people go around claiming they know how far Yliakum is under the ground.]

Larisma Bixie slowly looks up from her forge at the Kran. She turns her head back to the forge to try to formulate a well-thought reply. After about 30 seconds, she turns her head up again. "Dare I say that I do not take up a religion. I give you simply this reason: If there is not a deity, or surpreme being, then why should one have spent a very big portion of their life to worship a being that doesn't exist? And if there is, how could He make it so that one's fate is decided; this is against the basic right of life: Will. So I give to you, fair Kran, that even if you were the son of Talad, what does it matter? I believe it is a worthless symbol. Please go about singing it to the Earth, but it does not matter to I, nor any person in this Plaza; the only reason that anyone would think it matters is out of fear, which is not an effective way to rule at all." Larisma looks back to her forge, cusses at the overheated Steel, gets it out and tries to quench it.
