EPONA

[soulping]

Years ago, you recieved a charter from the United Empire, and were officially made a member of the newly christened Trade Company! Your goal was to seek fortune wherever it may be found in this strange land...of course, through force of arms, if the natives failed to cooperate.

But now things are different. You no longer work for the Empire, but for your homeland of Al-Andalus -- and to a lesser extent, the people you've come to associate here in Jambudvipa. Your food-guns at the ready, you are prepared to make a fortune and take a slice of these lands for your country -- or even yourself.

You walk in the light of the Devas, the natural spirits of this land. You are a friend to them, praying at their shrines and donating for their upkeep, always paying them the proper respects they deserve.

Your job now is to spread their light across all Jambudvipa, and to bring an everlasting peace beneath their rule!

The Shrine of the Earth is dedicated to the deva POUSAN, and is appropriately the crossroads between the network of shrines dedicated to the various Devas that have recently returned to Jambudvipa.

The reconstruction and restoration of the network and shrines, as well as the patronage of POUSAN is symbolized by a statue of a blue horse trampling a leopard on a raised platform in the shrine's center.

Attendants to the shrine hurry about, going about their various rituals.

To the SOUTH is the village of MEERUT.
To the EAST is the SHRINE OF THE SEA.
To the WEST is the SHRINE OF FIRE.
To the NORTH is the SHRINE OF THE SKY.

[ BACK HERE. this time, he's going to approach one of the shrine attendants. ]

Hello?

MEERUT

[soulping]

You are in Meerut, the principal village of the area -- and now, the headquarters of the brewing revolution. Of course, you'd never be able to tell just from looking -- the village life continues as normal, villagers living their lives and tending to their livestock and cultivating their plants.

Things have advanced quite a bit in the years since landfall -- the people of Meerut even now have electricity thanks to a group of heroes, symbolized by a statue of a garishly bright green boar in the village's plaza.

To the NORTH is the SHRINE OF THE EARTH.
To the SOUTHEAST is some jungle.
In the EAST of Meerut, there is a hut of a HEALER that you are acquainted with.

Re: MEERUT

[sweatypalms]

...Do we need to visit a healer?

Re: MEERUT

[feytality]

We could go say hi! Who knows, they might come in handy.

JUNGLE

[soulping]

The jungle is vast, and you could definitely get incredibly lost. It's sweltering and humid, and there's all sorts of strange plantlife and huge, creepy beetles and flying bugs.

You should probably get out as soon as possible.

To the EAST is more jungle.
To the NORTH is the NAGA VILLAGE.
To the WEST is LANDFALL.
To the NORTHEAST is MEERUT.
To the SOUTH is the Feywood.

This is bad. Do we really need to talk to this thing?

Re: JUNGLE

[feytality]

Hey! There's a place named after me!

[ oh my god. he's going to take Star from Yato forcibly (but gently as possible) and carry her himself. then he'll focus his attention on Yato.

boy, he sure looks mad! ]

Fucking idiot, what did you think would happen saying shit like that to them?

FEYWOOD

[soulping]

Oh, what a surprise! It's the jungle you were in when you first arrived in Nafuna's realm today.

Listen to all that maddening giggling. You could go north, south, east, or west, but which is the right way?

You could also GO BACK THE WAY YOU CAME.

Re: FEYWOOD

[sweatypalms]

[ UH.......... ]

Great.

We're gonna go back, right??

Re: FEYWOOD

[dirtdevil]

[ shiiiit. scanning the trees for any movement or other tomfoolery... ]

We need to. There's nothing here except her.

LAKESIDE VILLAGE

[soulping]

You're now standing in the LAKESIDE VILLAGE, the new home of the LAKENAGA. A bridge leading to the middle of the lake connects the village to the TEMPLE OF KADROO.

The NAGA here slither about, fishing and selling their wares sharing the bounty of electrcity with the villagers of MEERUT.


To the WEST is the TEMPLE OF KADROO
To the SOUTH is the JUNGLE.

Re: LAKESIDE VILLAGE

[dirtdevil]

[ omg fish snake people what the fuuuuuuuuck. ]

Let's go to the temple and get this over with.

[ whatever "this" is. ]

UPDATE

[soulping]

You're now standing in the LAKESIDE VILLAGE, the new home of the LAKENAGA. A bridge leading to the middle of the lake connects the village to the TEMPLE OF KADROO.

HEALER'S HUT

[soulping]

The healer welcomes you in eyes you warily. You're not a friend of the Empire or the Devas, but you're not exactly trustworthy, either.

There are:

FIRST AID SUPPLIES
OPIUM
MEDICINAL HERBS
SALVE
BLUE PILL
LOVE POTION
BONG

But there seems to be a price for taking any one of these items.

The village is back to the EAST.

Re: HEALER'S HUT

[sweatypalms]

[ JUST THREE EXTREMELY TRUSTWORTHY DEVA-LOVERS HERE, OKAY ]

Which of these can treat a snake bite...?

SHRINE OF FIRE

[soulping]

This shrine is dedicated to Tvaistar, god of the forge. At its center lies a massive anvil, runes inscribed around its base. The attendants of this shrine are busy at work pounding away at the miniature forges located all around the edges of the shrine.

Magma seems to be bubbling up from beneath the anvil.

To the NORTH is the SHRINE OF LIGHT.
To the WEST is the SHRINE OF THE EARTH.

Re: SHRINE OF FIRE

[feytality]

Woah....!

What are you guys doing?
