Pantheon 2.0 - Bhakti and Nor Yekith
Posted: Sat Dec 23, 2006 2:39 pm
Others of the Pantheon do not like to be bothered listening to Yek and I talk. I thought we could do so here, and the rest of you can simply ignore us.

However, now that your knowledge of my child is public knowledge, I will make a promise to you equally public... You have repeatedly promised my destruction. My child could be used in any number of ways to hasten your goal. I do not know how your followers act or feel toward their children. Perhaps they do not Love them, and do not particularly care what happens to them. But look to other lands. Most creatures, even the lower animals who do not think or feel in ways that we do, go to considerable lengths to protect their offspring. And most thinking creatures, on the whole, do Love their children. And, when their children are threatened or harmed, they go much farther.
I say upfront that if I learn you or your Womb have put the least Power, or even effort, into learning my child's whereabouts; if either of you use any Power in my lands, for any reason (because I cannot know what long-term effects you plan for your uses of Power) - every bit of my divine Power will be immediately directed toward you.
Regarding your followers: You and I have no peaceful reasons to be in each others' lands, and that will not change. If either of you attempt to send any of your followers to my lands, under any pretenses, I will consider it an attempt to harm my child, and, again, every bit of my divine Power will be immediately directed toward you.
Any plans you make had better completely devestate me in your first strike so I lose too much Power to be of any bother to you after. Of course, I'm sure you're already laughing at the thought of me directing Power at you. Doubtless, you do not think I can do anything to bother you. After all, if I had the ability to harm you, wouldn't I have done so when you invaded or infected my lands? No. I could see that those situations could be resolved through other means. They did not threaten me or my lands in a permanent way. The physical damage and insult of each was not worth full-out war, which, I have not the slightest doubt, is what would happen if any other god ever did either to you. But I am Love, and look for a more Loving peaceful resolution, even at the expense of my pride.
However, make no mistake, I have an amount of Power that even you should not consider negligible, and, when properly motivated, I will show the universe how a parent protects its child.
My apologies, Jove, for beginning such a conversation without your presence or input. But I wanted to make all things clear right from the start.

Ah. Well then. I am not Malice, and webs of lies are more difficult for me to weave and manage, so I will not try. Yes, Jove is pregnant. (I won't say when it is expected. On the outside chance you do not learn of that immediately, I will have at least one secret from you. ) But now that I know you know, my plans go on as they were. I will do all I can to prevent you and your Womb from finding, taking, and harming my child.Nor Yekith wrote:No, that your wife is pregnant.
