Sounds like the Worm of the World's End is rolling over in his sleep!

He has been doing that recently, although I don't believe there is any cause for alarm.

:::burying head in hands and preparing to weep:::

"I talked with almost all the gods of Eiran. They agreed to give me their power in order to do something that no one could ever imagine! Today, before your eyes, all the dead of Eiran will rise!"

I must say, if the "almost all" there is anything more than just exaggeration then the gods on this game are unimaginably stupid. And I'm not just speaking from my perspective as the one being harmed by this.

And from my perspective as Maeror, I cannot believe that once again players have facilitated Argothoth in his abuse of the dead. He deprives them of choice, he twists them into abomination, and he causes little more than suffering for the majority of souls he forces unconsenting into undeath.

you know my brother, the goal of existance is the eternal unlife. The paradise of undeath is on Eiran, now and forever...

(Undead, hmm.... Hey, Norn, how did you do that trick again? )

(ehehe, yea good idea )

Rumble, rumble, rumble, rumble, RUMBLE...

Don't worry everyone, I just realised that I forgot to include "Undine had his breakfast" in this turn's post.

(Do undead automatically worship Argothoth then? Would they not still worship those gods who they had originally worshipped?)

That is a question I'd like to know the answer to. In the past it has seemed he's just claimed them regardless--for example his new prophet, built from the bodies and souls of former worshippers of mine...

The fear of Nor Yekith can lead a deity to agree to many things Maeror, not all of which are wise. Let us hope that it is that fear and not plain stupidity that has inspired such support of Argothoth's plan.

As for my "trick", it may be that the possibility of such things happening again has passed.

I think that only the allfather can answer such question...

Well ... did YOUR necromancy include that they would be loyal to YOU or did you allow them to choose? Hmmmm......

BTW, take Jove up on it ... have her diamond encrust you!!

How easy it was to encourage such fear - to place myself in such a position as to be regarded the worst threat to the world. I am greatly amused by the stupidity of some of the gods here. Such fools do not deserve to live.

I've outwitted you again and again.

If only I could know for certain whether the balance has truly tipped, or if, once again, one act has been compensated by another...

Do the undead have souls? It is their bodies that are reanimated. Their souls depart at death for whatever afterlife you assign them, surely?

Now THAT is a good point. Is argothoth using their souls, or simply acting as a pupetteer?

All things will be answered in time, Master of Assassins.

mindless undeads do not have souls, at least it is what i know...

for those who have a mind, i dunno how it works

Hmmm. Bhakti's reaction was not what I was expecting.

:::shaking:::

m'l-rd Argothoth, brother...

As I recently said to Nor Yekith, dragon flesh is sacrosanct to my followers and myself. These undead you have risen...how much decomposed are they?
