Strange Rodent — Roleplayer Guild

This One , having retreated, reflected upon  the happenings. Vakk, the god of Talk,  was obviously one of the gods to be wary of. That he could perform such feats of control was… unsettling.  It gazed upon ways to prevent this happening again, and decided the best way would be to have others remain raving enough that they cannot focus on what they want.

So This One , sitting upon the water, reached within itself to see... 
   And it saw nine figures, each with a different head, surrounding a maelstrom of misunderstanding. This vicious cloud surrounded Eurysthenes’ mind, whispering, raving, foaming. It was the world, and more. This One  reached to this cloud with its mind, and the sea with its body, yielding a small shard of ice and a cloud of madness. With a clap, the two were combined into one, and the excess was trimmed.

This was The Mad Ice, and it was made to corrupt weaker minds, setting voices, removing memories, and hindering judgement. Eurysthenes opened up its chest and placed the raving shard inside.

Now, with more confidence, This One  proceeded with its wandering.

Suddenly the world around This One began to shake. The water foamed and gurgled angrily, then all at once a perfectly flat pillar of dark stone punched out of the ocean. It was plain and barren, save for a single solid stone archway reaching from one side of the pillars face to the other. Standing directly underneath where the keystone of the archway would be, was K’nell. The lip of the platform he stood on was only a mere few meters from the raging ocean, but the smiling god remained still, staring directly at Eurysthenes. 

This One  felt the pull of sleep bludgeon it's senses, but this time it wouldn't tolerate godly effects.  A good thing there were no eyes to droop. It decided to say nothing, opting instead to walking closer and examining this new god.

“What is your purpose,” the words echoed and hung between the two Gods, though no mouths moved. The eyes of K’nell betrayed ownership of them.

”My purpose is unclear, fooling those who might try to deal in it. What of yours?” Eurysthenes clicked in response. It was skeptical of other gods after Vakk, though this ‘K’nell’ seemed far less malicious. 

“My purpose is supremely clear and also lacking,” the voice echoed, swirling around the pair curiously. K'nell's smile seemed unwavering despite the grains of sadness in his voice.

“It's not very much a purpose at all, as much as a function. A distraction is necessary, a colorful veil to pull, so at least then I can choose to ignore the meaningless existence we now inhabit. When there is nothing, there is only us, so why not dance, why not play, as if to pray that you don't remember your birth.” 

Eurysthenes considered the words for a while. "Why not, indeed," it said, shrugging its shoulders. "But why? Why anything? What is meaning other than what we make of it? What would we make of it?"

This One  saw the flecks of sadness in the other's voice though. It appeared that the lack of purpose had upset K'nell, which was odd to This One , but it was what it was. "So let's play as if to pray we forget our birth," Eurysthenes said, smiling a mouthless smile which reached to its nonexistent eyes.

“First,” K’nell answered, his voice gladdened by the company, “we need to set the stage.”

Eurysthenes considered these words for  a moment before simply saying ”Why not, indeed?”
It considered the flecks of sadness in K’nell’s voice before continuing. ”What is so large that it would not fit in a sphere of its own?” it asked, hoping K’nell would guess it.

“Whatever it is that I hope to accomplish out here,” K’nell surveyed the endless ocean. 

”No, that which is too large to even fit within its own sphere is the one which birthed you,” This One  replied, almost doubled over with laughter.

   ”You are ass n tiddies, toight!” Eury said, admiring K’nell’s figure. Perfect, print it.

Eury Points Spent:
3 MP on The Mad Ice (Artifact. When used, dense clouds billow out from the crystal for a short distance. Mortals who are exposed to it suffer episodes of insanity. Gods who are exposed to it feel a slight, but resistable pull. Once the cloud dissipates, the affected people no longer experience this insanity, though they may be left with phobias or trauma if they experience something truly horrific.)

1 MP and 5 FP remaining
2 MP until the Madness port may be unlocked

K’nell Points:
7 FP spent on creating the gateway known as Limbo

A collab with @Goldeagle1221
Eury decides that if people are insane they can't manipulate it, so it makes a shard of ice that makes people crazy

K’nell’s gateway pops up in front of Eury, and it is very confused at first.

K’nell has an existential crisis

If you take the shitpost as canon, Eury is like “it fine, yo mumma fat”

If you take the post as canon, Eury is all “Yeah existential crises are fun but you know what's better? Partying.”

Then K'nell says “yeah cool let's do that, but we need a crib to party at”
