* Peacer opens his eyes and looks at dalat "He is more than just "god of the rock" you dumb kran, get your facts straight and read about your "father" before you start giving him stupid titels such as "god of the rock" my faith to him is more than this" Peacer smiles kindly "A message from my father (I would have said sir :p) My good kran" then closes his eyes and goes back meditating

Olympias listens with head tilted for a few moments before striding quickly to Jayose to procure both pen and paper. She returns as quickly as intended and settles, albeit uncomfortably, on the ground. The rough surface texture of the ground scratches her soft turquiose skin. With confident, bold strokes she deftly completes an outline of the Kran and begins to fill the outline with words. It is simple word association, but it helps to develop character. Before ten minutes has passed the outline is filled with scrawlings and Olympias is satisfied that she understands the Kran better than when she started. Knowing that it will be some time before the questions of the gathered horde are answered, the Nolthrir settles down to repair her favourite long sword. She is looking forward to a quiet word with the infamous Kran and the possibility of expanding on her collection of epic adventures. Before she finishes with the weapon her mind has already wandered to the places he must have travelled and the people he must have seen. And then her thoughts drift to the way to tell the things he has seen that she hasn't, to make the people believe her. To spin the words so as to create a delicate cloth as all encompassing as the heavens, as wise as the priests and as bright as the crystal.

Tyrnal watches the crowd from a dark corner, scanning the faces of the people. When his eyes cross with the prophet he stops for a moment. It is not the face he is looking for but ... this face has something familiar. Something he used to believe in not too long ago.

For some reason the former guard decides to pause his search and wait to hear what this Prophet has to say.


(OOC: Glad to see that not much has changed yet since I left. We're mostly still only interested in RPing our own heroic appearances without bothering to help in the development of others' stories. And religion is still as repulsive as ever ... in a world where gods actually meddle in the affairs of mortals and magic lives among us)

[Well, the gods have actually made appearances in game, and when they have, it was for good.  So while I think it's completely valid to RP someone who mistrusts the gods, I think that you should be prepared for your character one day changing his or her mind.]

Humbug. They are not gods. They are merely extremely powerful sorcerers with some god-like powers. I'll believe they are gods when I see circles fall like raindrops from the sky and golden apples grow on tree-sized mushrooms.

Please don't tell them I said so.

By the way, he only thought he created us. We were here from the beginning, one with the firmament. He merely called us out and gave us our form.
