I'm glad we aren't following the Aztec example of appeasing to the gods

Eliz is planning to get away to get rid of the heat for a while and maybe to meditate on her own self a bit.

So, since Cairis is Eliz's patron goddess and also the goddess of adventures Eliz is probably going to invest in some divine blessing.

Plan thus far is: Finish raiding season, spend the harvest to do something that, well, will probably not involve helping harvesting as she is supposed to do. Dig out the dwarven ruins during the moon season and once the new year starts... go exploring.

She aims to make a map of pretty much the entire valley, or at least map as much of it as she can and be gone for a couple of seasons.

So, a few notes I'll make:

Exploration will get SERIOUSLY TOUGH in the winter seasons. Keep that in mind. You can do it, but you might get turned back, or you might get attacked by monsters more in the Moon Season, or you... etc. Problems. So, if you want to explore for a few seasons, keep that in mind.

On a similar note, right now is the Fire season. Next is Ash. Both are filled with raids. You'll right about wanting to be around to help fight against raids and to lead your own raids. This is, after all, the most raid-heavy time of the year.

Concerning exploration, you might want to consider if someone else would like to go exploring, too. Eliz has already had an adventure this year. What if Titania wakes up and says "I want to find some rad ass treasure, too?" If nobody else does, you could always set off again. The main thing to remember is that you want at least one warrior-type around to help defend the clan. (Luckily, there's... what, four of you?)

You don't know any of Cairis' blessings yet, but you can sacrifice some goods or cows to learn one. After that, you'd sacrifice again to actually use it. You might learn part of a Quest instead. Either way: it'll cost between 7-14 total goods and cows.

Finally, I'll outright say that you won't be able to map most of the valley in two seasons. Not nearly. But mapping the valley is a VERY good goal to have, and if you want to start, now is as great a time as ever. I encourage you folks to explore if you think it'll benefit you.

Well, as I said my plan is:

Fire: Raid
Ash: Raid (Or rampage in the barrows, not sure yet)
Harvest: Raid (Or rampage in the barrows, or something)
Pale: Diggy dig in the mountain.
Moon: Dig more.

Aaaaand I'd leave at the rain of next year, probably to come back at harvest.

Makes sense?

Also, posted. I'll add the bits about my raid later tomorrow.

I like that post. Good look into Eliz's mind.

Ardghal will protect the clan. The others can go raiding and adventuring. The only offensives Ardghal will involve himself are ones he is asked to, ones that satisfy an Oath or ones that are because of a Blood Feud.

Going to shower, then do one last edit, and post.

And lo it is done. I was going to go a different route with the whole 'Maire/Eliz' thing, but I think this adds a nice layer of conflict. =P

Maire don't take no shit, that's for sure.

I'll have Serhiem's executive decision tomorrow. Do not worry!

You better vote for poison grenades. Fragile clay containers + silverleaf tree sap=POISON GRENADES!

It would appear I forgot to link the current map in the last IC post.

I'm going to start including a clickable link with all map images so it's easier for you guys to click it and see the huge image.

Anyway, here's the map:

@Shorticus
are those rocks like a Stonehenge or something?

More like this, but huge and tall and glowing with evil looking energy:

Wow if that's the case I can only imagine what will come from them

Short post on my phone that has Serhiem's action.

Oh what the hell! I am not sitting on the sidelines with the orc issue. Just because I am sick does not make my character feeble he can do this

Serhiem is just concerned of your character's health. He takes concern to everyone's health in the clan.

I can understand concern but I find it Somewhat insulting to think that my characters health is what keeps him from doing things like anyone else.
