Would it be possible to have Vain sub-divide the Pantheon store? Similar to the way the items for The Land are sub-divided? Maybe by Domains, Houses, Artifacts, Followers, and Other for those categories that don't have many items, like the Courts? The list is getting pretty long for a single list...

I've said it before, and I'll probably say it again ( :D ) but if anyone objects to my Eschatology contest entry, I will withdraw it.

From the persective of several of Brid's followers, it'll be the end of the world (as they know it) (oh and don't they feel fine!)

Looking forward to it, Stone.

Growing up in a tight-knit dwarrow family, he’d always been the odd one out. While his father would praise and reward Naht’s siblings when they struck a rich vein, or prised gemstones from the rock, Naht’s fascination with and ability for sculpture drew nothing but scorn. ‘We provide the raw materials, let the other races do the namby-pamby decorating,’ he’d say.

Good work, though.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
-George Steiner

I loved it. All the empty towns made me think that it took place AFTER the end of the world. And the only people left were Brid's outcasts.

Well done.

:edit:

Even if you and I are the only ones who know what it's going to be, Xar, I'd like a kuwabara icon. :D

Everyone else will SOON know why....

Mine was fairly long too but more story than moves.

Well, now that the turn is submitted I can work on my eschatology story. I have one sentence of that completed. :)
