@Klomster I see. Well, if dragonmancer is alright with it, then we can just make up another city. Also, just for future reference, we're going to try to make the demons one of the bigger threats in the mortal realm. Your post was fine, but I think it might be best to stick to bandits, barbarians, and Elven pricks as far as enemies go. Once we get the ball rolling I'm sure there will be demons everywhere.

@dragonmancer How do you feel about Respite, the Last City, for our settlement of refugees? It could be based in the ruins of an ancient Pre-Cataclysm city or something like that?

Also, I'm going to eat breakfast then get to my post. I apologize for the delay.

@dragonmancer Ha suggests a wall.
A nice big wall.

@dragonmancer Small question. Would you mind if Asivar temporary "tames" (more like breaks will of) a Long Dragon. It would pretty much attack the "punny human caravan" not realizing the God of Beasttaming walks among them. It's just to showcase the third and final mark of Asivar, the Yui. (The shenhun - Hunter's mark, the Arvat'Nar or the burned scar mark of the Warrior and the Yui or Mark of the Beasttamer.)

Posted, but wait...there's more! After conferring with dragonmancer, here's our first 'World Event.' Feel free to respond to it as you like.

WORLD EVENT: Welcome Home!

Unbeknownst to the Pantheon, Erathel, the largest landmass on Gaea, has become a battlefield between four powerful demon lords. During the Silence, each of these formidable individuals tried to conquer the continent, but they were too evenly matched and established a fragile peace instead. One of these demons, Azmodan, also known as the Bane of Ermio and the Malady That Walks, has just learned the gods and goddesses have returned to Gaea. Although his mystical abilities are impressive enough to give a deity pause, Azmodan knows he’d probably be destroyed in a battle against most members of the Pantheon. Fearing the loss of his status as Demon Lord of the South, Azmodan has dispatched small groups of bloodthirsters, demonic warriors sworn to serve the demon lords, to gauge the strength of Erathel’s southern settlements. While these scouting parties haven’t taken any aggressive actions yet, bloodthirsters aren’t known for their restraint and good humor. Thus far, these lesser demons have been seen near Ha’zufel, Talpike, River Deep and Mumue.

Each group of bloodthirsters is led by a demon carrying a teardrop-shaped sapphire pendant attached to a fine silver chain. A watery black fluid sloshes around inside the gemstone, though no god or mortal knows the unusual object’s purpose. Even the god of sorcery, Dormammus, would be unable to discern what the item is. This is because only a demon can use these mindstones to converse with Azmodan, though a god or goddess could unravel the artifact’s secrets if given enough time.

@Tangletail My thought, and @dragonmancer will ultimately decide this, is that the mindstones are demonic artifacts. Del Sombra is the goddess of mortal and immortal secrets, but not demonic ones. Demons are fallen angels, according to our GM's post on the subject, and they've undoubtedly changed a great deal. Honestly, I don't think anyone, deity or otherwise, knows much about them except how they're created. Just my two cents.

Also, only a demon can properly activate and use a mindstone. All a god or goddess would be able to do is figure out what it does and who it allows you to talk to.
