Action by Denica


Story Request: While the I was off traveling, I was considering what Denica was up to during the absence. I thought she would take up a silent vigil. For the past thirteen days she has been utterly silent - spending her days at the star sigiled altar, and her evenings in the Shrine of the Thirteenth. Either in prayer, meditation, or simply painting for the glory of the gods that she is paying her honor to: Tehom and Aion. Perhaps through what she's heard - a few drops of her own blood might covertly slip into her paint pots.

The objective: As of her last vision, she is prepared to listen more closely to those gods that she normally once would have not have paid attention to. Seeking favor. Offering her devotions, her art, and a little bit of her pain. While others in the Thrax fealty pay homage to the goddess of the air and water - she is focusing on the god of creation, dreams, and the darker reflections of the mirror. Outside the box (or potentially dangerous) paths toward the same goal of learning more about how not to die by Gyre or Leviathan.


Action by Fatima


Result

As Denica paints, thinking of Jayus as the god of creation and dreams, she starts to feel a strange sensation of despair. She paints of the darkwater washing over all of the Isles. She paints of Maelstrom falling into the sea and devoured by a monstrous maw. She paints of the the tide starting to cover the world, and then as she almost feels ready to stop due to the sheer futility of it all, she starts to feel the stirrings of hope. She paints something new. She paints of weapons that seem to be surrounded by lightning. She paints of these weapons being thrust into the heart of a beautiful man at the head of an impossibly large fleet. She paints of the darkwater being destroyed. And she paints of a maw seeming to bite at some great beast of the sea. As to what it means? Who can say.
