Does any other deity claim the Shattered Lands?

You would lay claim, exclusively, over almost a score of your peers, to the single largest region in the whole of this world--a region that contains one fifth of all the inhabited cities and all four of the bridges that allow safe passage between east and west?
That you would make this claim makes you either a fool or a deliberate provocateur. What right do you claim to anything in this world, except as its inhabitants will grant you? Such claims can only be ignored; time and faith will tell who gains influence in the regions of the world. We can only trust that its peoples choose well.

somebody's got their CRANKYpants on today!!
sorta testy for a proclaimed peace-nik, aren'tcha there, bel-bottom?

Try to conduct yourself with some dignity, child. What are you--a god, or the village fool?

I thank you an Carraig and Calais! *bows*. You both show impeccable taste!! *chuckles* And you will have my assitance whenever you request! Life supports prisoners and anything living in th earth!

As to you Bel ... I am simply letting all know that I intend to convert the Shattered Lands ... no one is forced to follow Life. They will follow or not as they chose.

Good morning to all my fellow deities.

Deva, while I do not condone or condemn your claiming of the Shattered Lands, I would like to tell you now that I agree it is as Bel says: an action that invites provocation. Tread carefully.

You misunderstand ...

I did not say claim! That would indeed be provocative. It is not mine to claim. But, I may inform my brothers and sisters that I intend to convert all that I can there! Surely I am being generous with my plans so as to avoid any misunderstandings in the future. [Is not this the way of 'peace' Bel?]

i am what you need me to be, ya grump.
goddess or fool. whatever you like.

"Convert?"

I have no problem with conversions as long as they do not include the earth.

God of Life, while you did not state that precise meaning in your words, your statements presupposed ownership just as clearly, when you conflated the term "The Shattered Lands" with "my cities".

You asked if any other god laid claim to the Shattered Lands. I state here now what is no secret to any: that I lay claim to all of the world. There cannot be Peace when the lands and peoples--and even the gods--are divided against themselves. Thus there cannot be Peace unless the whole of the world shares in it.

And if they do not wish to convert?

I will state a similar intent as well. Wherever Light shines, or wherever Light is needed, I will have word of me spread among the peoples there.

May Bel's Peace bless your intentions, God of Life.

And yet, what other choice have you? Unless you wish to gift unto Brid, those that displease you?

I too shall have followers everywhere for it is through my dominion that a new mother brings a new being into the world. I am the first thing an infant knows when entering the world. The pain of birth seperation. You cannot keep me out of the shattered lands.

I grant you this animation sister Keev. For he is your prophet; and for the affection I hold for those in the Sunset Court. But remember ... Life is my domain ... and none may grant it without my leave!

Thank you for this boon brother Dev. I never intended to step on your toes.... well then again, toe stepping can be fun, for me anyway.


Telmag, a metal bikini you say? Can you make it pinch and chaffe in all the fun places?

If that is what you so choose, could add little barbs and.. Well, we could take this to a more private discussion

If they eschew Life, that is their choice. Those who inhabit Eiran are free to chose whatever deity or deities they desire to worship.

Hail, Pantheon!

The Master of the Seas has awakened...

That is well, for there are bridges that they must cross before they can return.

Mmmm... Barbs.... I like the sound of that....

I trust you will leave your paws off of life under the oceans, Unzen.

I wouldn't things to become... unpleasant... between us.

There is no particular need for you to cast your fish eyed gaze at me, Dagon. But I shall answer the prayers of those who seek my assistance.
