All I can contribute is that, at least, it's quite clear what happened and who's at fault, and it ended fast. It's a hell of a hard shock, but with a little luck, you can start to recover soon.

You've done well so far, you'll get back on your feet when you're ready.

@Dawnscroll And just remember for the future; a relationship built on a saviour complex just can't work. It's more or less as Mutton said. People with deep and dark issues can be mysterious and alluring, it can be tempting to jump in there and be their light, it can be tempting to say to yourself, 'all they need is a decent human being in their life,' but it just never is that simple. Don't go in there, especially not if you're hoping that your presence will drag out of whatever pit they're in.

What you should do is find a friend - someone in whom you see something that you would like to see in yourself, and who sees something in you that they'd like to see in themselves. Someone who gives and contributes to your personality and life as much as you do to theirs.a

_{(and don't be afraid to do the Kho and forget relationships yeah, don't do that, humans need love and all that, don't be a grumpy old grouch like Kho)}

In any case, can't say I've had on of the cheating business happen to me, but I can talk about partners with deep, dark issues and beautiful families who loved me all you want -_- and I may even hesitantly add, and I hope you'd forgive it: 'mate, you might have just dodged a bullet.'

@Kho@Dawnscroll

I can say, that I have done the Kho and I have had no problems! That and I am to concerned with my job and grades to want to attempt to kind a partner. Nonetheless, I cannot say I can give advice on love because I've never been in a relationship because I am not a whale biologist.

@Kho@Lauder You'd all be very surprised that for some reason, I'm not all that choked up about this. That might change later, but right now I can look and say "I did nothing wrong." She can never say I hurt, abused, or endangered her.

Ultimately, I do want a relationship with someone, settle down, have a family.

Anyone have any good pagan communes they could recommend? I wouldn't mind a flower child sorta girl, as long as he was faithful. XD

Any ETA on when the next turn will be?

I know its a bit rude to complain, especially because yeah, my character is at 0 might. But still, it has been 2 months since the last turn, and that is becoming a bit excessive.

@Double Capybara Excessive, perhaps, but beautiful also. One need only look at all that has happened in the last two months without even a turn progression.

You might also understand, from that, why turn progressions that are any faster is pure madness o.o

But I will indeed gather the GMs and begin considering whether it is about time we get to the next Turn.

@Kho, can I request to be given say, 3 days at least? I'm finishing up Astarte's first useful post in months!

I understand. No problemo. Just wanted to point out that we are already reaching two months and see if there was already something being planned.

There is, of course, a hint of selfishness in my post, as I'm blocked from finishing the post about developing my holy site until I get portfolios of glass and flowers next turn. I think I will just take a temporary break, probably spend the time I would spend on the RP reading some fantasy novels or RPG sourcebooks to see if I get some new ideas. Or maybe I should finally tackle the "I don't know what the hell a poem is" problem.

Personally, I'm always out of might. New turns couldn't come fast enough. So many different Neat Things I want to do but too little might to do it with.

HEY GUYS LOOK AT THE POST I MADE ON MY PHONE! PRAISE ME!

@Lauder

Pfft. I've made 40,000 character posts on a mobile device ;p

*brandishes rusty knife* BOI DONT RUIN MY MOMENT!

So, we're currently considering move to the next Turn on October 12th. That good by y'all?

Personally, I'm always out of might. New turns couldn't come fast enough. So many different Neat Things I want to do but too little might to do it with.

Next turn I think I will just start going down into negative might, not a lot, maybe -3. My goddess is mathematically doomed, either way, might as well have fun while at it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@Lauder
How caught up are you with the IC? Do you need help to understand recent events? I take it must be quite hard, considering how unstable our timeline has been with stuff like Stand and Logos' arrival being posted at the same time despite being set decades apart.

@Double Capybara

I've been reading little bits but please summarize two moths worth of material me please!

@Double Capybara

Wait, you posted without being almost caught up with the IC? I thought you would have small questions regarding whats and whens.



I mean... I can make something and PM you I guess, now that I offered help.

@Double Capybara

Hey, I am still reading! -while being preoccupied with my doggo-

Plus, I work in mysterious ways!

Fortunately, BBeast did some summary work a week ago, so I don't need to exert myself. It's not exhaustive, obviously, but it captures the main points. Feel free to ask questions, someone will get to them eventually.

@Kangutso, some time ago you asked for a summary of events. So I'll give you what I can recall as the important details.

Several cities have emerged.
Alefpria, ruled by Lifprasil, and pet project of Ilunabar. I haven't read the latest post, which may change that, but they tend not to cause too much trouble.
Xerxes, ruled by Amartia/Sin (at least, until he got kidnapped). The fastest growing city around. Contains numerous races. Hub for crime and villainy and poverty, but also a big player in civilisation.
Vetros, which is a human city in the Firewind Desert. Worships Zephyrion. At perpetual war with the Horse People up north. Quite a nice place in general.

In case you forgot, Reathos is dead, killed by Vestec. Bits of his body was scattered about the world as divine relics. A few of them have already been claimed.
Also, don't forget, 1% of all people who die rise up as undead. The undead aren't inherently dangerous or anything, just differently alive.

New demigods include Amartia/Sin, Lazarus, Conata, Kinesis, and Maeus.

Vowzra died, was killed by Jvan.
This created New Chronos, which is encased in a giant space-warp bubble over the north pole. It is similar to old Chronos, and still has the time-warping effect.
In response, Toun created the Oath of Stilldeath. It prevents any deities from fighting (or at least killing each other) within New Chronos, and all its (voluntary) signatories can not kill each other. Toun, Astarte, Teknall and Jvan have signed it, from memory. Vestec says he'll also sign it if enough gods jump on the bandwagon.

Lazarus (new demigod) is in the process of claiming the remnants of the Horde of Chaos for himself.

Vestec recent turned the rest of Reathos' remains into a mountainous Holy Site in the south pole. In doing this, he destroyed what was left of the Pronobii and also flooded most of the terrain south of the main oceans.

Urtelem culture has flourished, with a kind of written language and long-distance coordination.

But what is most important at the moment is this:
Logos has come to invade Galbar. 3333 Realta are bombarding anything that looks Jvanic and everything within a few miles just to be sure. The Acalya flower was planted, which is a vicious crystalline weed which can convert who forests into itself (it's worse than Ashlings, just not sentient).
Teknall has armed himself and Goliath and they are out blowing up Realta en mass.
Jvan, or a part of her at least, has granted the Sculptors anti-energy weapons which, coupled with their preexisting anti-energy defences, allows them to fight back against the Realta. Also, they've teamed up with Urtelem and Fiberlings to stop the spread of the Acalya forests.
And Lifprasil with the help of numerous other gods has created the Cosmic Knights, which you can read about in the latest post.

Ed: On an entirely different note, is anyone planning on erupting Mount Bormahven sometime soon, or has some major stake in that? If so let me know and we can work something out. If not I'm calling dibs.

@Kho Totes. I'm not gonna have access to an actual Comp till then so I'll give the point distribution now. Make sure AT adds this to the end of the fight.

3 Might used to create the Tesseract, a dimensional prison/plane that exists outside of traditional Space/Time. 3 to Order (Time).

Claims the Portfolio of Order (Subjugation). 3 Might.

I'll see you guys is three days.
