"Stand up, young ones, it is not necessary to kneel before me. I am a simple god of balance, I hold no supreme power, and I would not harm you for standing before me, or simply giving me information, as we are benevolent gods." Argys looked at the scene before him, the boat and its crew, safe on the other side of the river. "I must say, those titans, even though they seemed to be vile cretins, have done something worthy of praise. Though, while you may thank them for a period, as that is expected, the wisdom and way of the gods will forever hold true. Though, sadly, I doubt that those of us who would resort to violence would refrain from their habits, therefore causing a holy war against the titans. I would, for the sake of all that the gods stand for, and the peace and glory of Ninjen, stay true to the words of the gods, and not stray from the path to righteousness." Argys, quickly changed topic to that of the Kobolds "I myself cannot deal with the Kobold threat, therefore I must consult Ninjen, as well as the other gods to decide on a course of action. For now, what you must do, is design something to protect yourself from further attacks such as these, something that the flame cannot affect, causing no damage to the crew of your ships, as well as your cargo. A grand ship that could ride through a river of flame without so much as a scratch. The key to protecting your cargo is not offensive maneuvers, as you might think, but better equipping yourself with defenses. For the holy glory of the gods, may you all forever prosper." Argys, after his speech, listened to the prayers and questions of the humans, giving those around him some of his grand wisdom. After a while of this, he apologized for having to leave, and told them to treat the vessel with care. He walked behind a nearby tree, and left the body of the monk, who was unconscious for a period of time after, though he did eventually wake up. Argys hurried back to the temple, and informed the other gods of what had happened.
