[@Double Capybara]

Parvus was walking across the waters, considering his conversation with Phystene. As he walked by, he observed the jungle that Phystene had created. He was relieved that at least some good came from one of his fellow gods throwing a rock at Galbar. As he contemplating, he noticed a ship, clearly divine in origin, he sent a simple message towards the ship to announce his presence. 

Urhu was finishing to clean up her stocks when she heard a message in her mind, she was surprised to find someone in the middle of the sea and there was no context as to what the god wanted with her, but nevertheless went up to the deck and approached the god. Donning an outfit made of local resources, it was quite clear she had explored and exploited the island.

[color=c0783b]”Oh hey…”[/color] she looked down and snapped her finger a few times until she remembered the god’s name. [color=c0783b]”Parvus. Want to come in? I don’t like talking while looking down at someone.”[/color] from her ship she had an elevated position in relation to someone standing over the sea.

[color=598527]”If it would make you more comfortable.”[/color] he said, easily leaping aboard the vessel. Despite having walked across water, his feet were completely dry. 

Urhu looked at the pointy-eared god as he hopped in, she had missed him during the arrival and had genuinely no idea of how he was since she also tried to not indulge in the information given by the Architected. So far, he seemed nice, a bit too regal and ‘clean’ for her taste but at least he was not causing trouble.

[color=c0783b]”So… what brings you here? Did you just want to know who it was that owned such a vehicle?”[/color] she questioned.

[color=598527]I came to this region to discuss some personal matters with Phystene. I decided that while I was in this region, I should speak with other members of the pantheon to discuss Galbar, and its future.[/color] he said, as though rehearsed. 

The wanderer blinked, looked up, and then back down to the fellow god. [color=c0783b]”It’s about the whole giant rocks being thrown around business, isn’t it?”[/color] she crossed her arms and tilted her head.

Parvus simply nodded, [color=598527]Gods simply throwing giant stones at this planet is problematic. While I do not believe any harm was done, I don’t think it is proper. Could you imagine what would have happened if Phystene had created her wonderful jungle before the stone fell unto the planet. [/color], prodding her slightly. 

[color=c0783b]”Yeah… some gods have been quite destructive. It would not be cool to lose something like those jungles because of something like that. I would say the ocean goddess should make sure giant waves aren’t made when landforms are created, but, uh, I guess that wouldn’t have stopped the meteor…”[/color] 

Parvus paused for a moment, [color=598527]Are you suggesting the formation of barrier reefs? Or do you believe more drastic measures are required.[/color] he said, casually twirling his stinger in one of his hands. 

[color=c0783b]”Would that stop the waves?”[/color] Urhu questioned. [color=c0783b]”If so, yeah? But it would be asking too much to have barrier reefs everywhere. In all honesty, I am not the deity of the oceans, so I do not know what could break these giant waves. Now, I think trying to bash gods raising land would be a bit much, as much as some gods deserve a slap in the face or two, I think trying to police other gods like that is just a bad idea, especially if you are to confront them face to face.”[/color] she pulled over a bench and sat on it, she would offer one to Parvus, but she guessed he would not be interested in such menial things such as comfort.

[color=598527]Yes, you are right. We can not simply bash other gods over the head whenever they do something we disapprove of, otherwise all of Galbar would become a war-zone.”[/color] he said, placing his stinger against his pants leg, and threads of silk wrapped around it and fixed it in place. [color=598527]”To be frank, I am not certain there is an easy solution to this problem. It might be necessary to simply rebuild whatever is destroyed. However, that does not sit right with me.[/color]

Urhu tapped her chin. [color=c0783b]”Well, talking to other gods is a start, though I fear the ones who are willing to listen are not also on the ‘might throw a giant boulder towards the planet’ list. I guess the creation of barriers or other such things could help. I have talked about the ocean, but have you noticed how easy it is for a god or an object to cross from the upper spheres into Galbar? I feel like that is not good for the planet’s future.”[/color]

Parvus paused, [color=598527]If I remember correctly, the architect is lord of seals. Are you suggesting he strengthens the barrier between the celestial realms and Galbar? [/color] he said, using this opportunity to prod her about her opinion on their patron. 

With a pinched expression, the goddess nodded slightly in reluctant agreement. [color=c0783b]”I mean, he is one who could do it, for sure. Maybe other celestial gods could do the same, like, Azura perhaps. But I imagine the Architect would have in his interest for it to not be so easy to bombard Galbar.”[/color]

Parvus sighed, [color=598527]Yes, relying on the old god should only be a last resort, should it not? We are the pantheon of Galbar, we should do our best to manage our affairs ourselves should we not? I believe it would be wise to discuss this with Azura, or perhaps Phystene could make trees to flood the upper reaches of Galbar with oxygen. A sky barrier could be most helpful, but it does not address the root of the issue. [/color] 

[color=c0783b]”Indirect solutions avoid direct confrontations. I mean, I am sure one day a god will thoroughly overstep his boundaries and force others to react, but the rarer fights are, the fewer resources we will have to burn on them. The fewer enemies you have, the more allies and neutrals there will be when a godly conflict arises. For your worry, in particular, it's best to hold off more drastic actions until they are unavoidable, and then make an example of whoever managed to go under such a low bar.”[/color] the goddess told quite casually. [color=c0783b]”At least that would be what I would do.”[/color] she shrugged.

Parvus nodded,[color=598527]”Wise words. Since we are discussing the future, I wish to share that I intend to create exotic poisons, in the near future. While it might be better if such things were not required, in the future, it would be better if my creatures and followers had such dreadful tools and not need them, than for them to need them and to not have them. [/color]

While nodding at first, Urhu couldn’t help to let out a sigh. [color=c0783b]”Eh, what a dreadful conversation to have. Though I do agree on your views about safety, I feel, as the goddess of passages, that I must remember you that some things might get lost along the way, it's almost inevitable, and when things are lost, they might be found. You need to think about that when creating tools such as poison, about what happens when the wrong person gets hold of it.”[/color]

[color=598527]”I understand that I should not create a poison I can not cure. Though I am sorry for discussing such grim matters with you. Is there anything else you wish to discuss while I am here?[/color] Parvus said. 

Urhu smiled. [color=c0783b]”Oh, no worries, you are not at fault, we live in a grim world. Albeit one that is also beautiful.”[/color] standing up, she looked to the island. [color=c0783b]”So, are you and Phystene talking to all gods?”[/color]

Parvus was looking out towards sea, and did not even glance back at Urhu, [color=598527]Whatever do you mean? Your vessel was merely between were I was, and were I was going. It was only polite that I announced myself to a nearby traveler. It is that not the proper courtesy? I believe you are now the one who gets to decide that. [/color] 

Urhu smirked. [color=c0783b]”Why the sudden games?”[/color] she said in a teasing tone, before continuing, imitating Parvus’ voice. [color=c0783b]” I decided that while I was in this region, I should speak with other members of the pantheon to discuss Galbar, and its future.”[/color]

She then leaned back, taking a few step backs. [color=c0783b]”But I guess I was overstepping when I asked what I did. Sorry about that. I am just curious. Best of luck to both of you. Oh, and, I do enjoy having a world full of life, wastelands are boring to explore. Can’t say I will always be there to help the gods who work to keep this world blooming with life, but when I am absolutely necessary, I will absolutely be there to help.”[/color] she added with a wink.

Touching the wheel, the goddess looked back at Parvus. [color=c0783b]”Do you want a ride to the island or are you going to walk there?”[/color]

[color=598527]”I wish to examine this archipelago for a bit longer, so I believe I will walk. You are welcome to enter my domain so long as you do not break anything.”[/color] Parvus said, taking a deep breath even though such action was unnecessary. He had heard it was suppose to help calm a person down, however it never seemed to work. 

[color=c0783b]”What? Me, going into a sphere and breaking things? Madness. As the patron of hospitality, I must be an exemplary guest, no? ”[/color] she shook her head and then smiled.

[color=598527]Well, I shouldn’t waste any more of your valuable time, I should get going.[/color] he said, deciding against prying. 

Urhu would be cordial enough to lower Nyeothay Tag into the water so Parvus did not need to jump. As the god started to leave, she approached the rail of her ship.

[color=c0783b]”Oh, one last thing. Light producing bugs. Think about it.”[/color] she told, raising one finger up as if she was saying something important.

[hider=summary]
- Parvus is going towards The Eye when he spots Urhu and her ship.
- He decides to talk to her about the worries about the future of Galbar and Urhu is supportive of his ideas to an extent. They agree that its too dangerous out there and that measures must be taken to avoid excessive destruction, but that starting fights should be avoided.
- They banter a bit and are not completely forthcoming with each other (Though Urhu makes it clear she would help if truly necessary) before Parvus takes his leave
