- <Kain> You zoom off into the distance on your cloud like the punkiest monkey.
- Cleff makes sure she has a safe travel uninterrupted by angry birds by using her awesome watcher abilities. Once she's near Dale, she transforms into her Landora form.
- <Kain> You hear an exclamation as you enter the small town.
- <Kain> "Oh mah gawd, it's the fertility god, and he has some goshdurn tits!"
- <Cleff> >:I
- <Kain> An obviously drunk old man heralds your arrival.
- Cleff wonders if punishment does extra damage to people pissing her off.
- <Kain> His shout gets some attention, though, and people curiously start gathering about.
- Cleff regains COMPOSURE though.
- <Cleff> "Good day to you all, but I am not quite the fertility god you once may have knew."
- <Kain> "Is that Landorus?" "I thought it was supposed to be a guy..." "Oh Arceus, thank you for bringing her here!"
- <Cleff> "I am Landora. The Goddess of Fertility."
- <Kain> An old woman steps forward, looking up at you with some amount of appraisal and wonder.
- <Cleff> "I have come here to bring life into this town of Dale, and let its hidden beauty bloom."
- <Kain> "Land...ora? My word..."
- <Kain> Some men in overalls in the back go BOY HOWDY and sure seem excied.
- <Kain> *excited
- Cleff thinks to herself, don't punch everyone in the face, remember. Respectful. Graceful. Helpful. Beautiful.
- <Kain> "Well, I never... I guess there're just some things about this world we ain't supposed to know. Welcome to our humble little town, great Landora... Please don't mind the menfolk... it's a great honor to have you here."
- <Kain> The woman bows a bit, and other people in the crowd follow suit afterwards.
- <Cleff> "Your praise is appreciated. And I shall reward it as best I can."
- <Kain> "We thank you humbly for your blessing at the end of this dry, cold season."
- Cleff spreads her arms out wide. "Show to me your depleted land, and I shall breathe life into it. Show me your wilting crops, and I shall give them strength. Bring to me your barren women, and I shall gift them my blessing."
- <Kain> Children in the crowd are chattering, asking their parents about you, or talking with themselves about how cool you are.
- <Kain> "What about men who just shoot blanks?" a housewife calls out.
- <Cleff> "Those too, shall recieve my blessing if they believe."
- <Kain> There's a murmur among the crowd.
- <Kain> "Thank you! I'll go get'im!" That housewife hurries off to find her husband.
- <Kain> The elder lady smiles at you, and asks,
- <Kain> "What would you have us do in return?"
- <Cleff> "All I ask of you is your faith. In your fellows, and in me."
- Cleff looks around for a nice open space. Something where she could put something really big if she needed to.
- <Kain> There's a large, open space with a sort of raised dais sort of area that seems to function as the town square.
- <Kain> "Of course, Landora. If you'll please follow me, I'll show you to our poor farms."
- Cleff floats over to the town square and extends her hand out, then raises it upward sharply to cause a small spire of earth to rise out of the ground.
- <Kain> People ooh and ahhh at that a moment.
- <Cleff> "Faith can move mountains. As your faith in me grows, so too shall this Mountain of Faith."
- <Kain> More murmuring. You think it's working.
- <Kain> You're really starting to impress these people. Now if you can prove your status...
- <Kain> The elder lady, who's the mayor, by the way, begins to walk off towards the farms.
- <Cleff> "People will come to see this mountain of faith, and one day, it may even pierce the heavens."
- <Kain> "A mountain of faith? In our little Dale?" "Wow..." "I bet it'd be a great tourist attraction!" "We're the harvest goddesses chosen people!"
- <Kain> The people gather around it to marvel.
- Cleff floats towards the farms with the Mayor.
- <Kain> She steadily leads you over there. There's two farm houses in the distance, each next to opposite walls of the mountain range. You can see the fields, and though you passed by before, only now do you see how dry and withered the crops are, and feel how thirsty the soil is, and starved for nutrients.
- Cleff surveys the land. It may be in a sorry state, but it's time for her to get to work.
- Cleff floats along the crops slowly, making deliberate movements with her arms as she passes, moving them around and down, then up, trying to cause the plants to rise up as she brings up her arms.
- <Kain> The plants react to your presence, standing upright and turning green. But you seem to realize this gesture will only last so long without water and changes in the soil.
- Cleff thinks, and tries another series of movements, this time trying to pull the nutrient rich soil up to the crops and spread it around for them.
- <Kain> You concentrate a little harder, and this seems to work as well!
- <Kain> The crops will last a bit longer.
- <Kain> But that still leaves the issue of water.
- Cleff looks upon this, and sees that it is good. She leans down and feels around the earth, sensing what lies beneath it to see if she can locate a damp rock.
- <Kain> All the natural aquifiers in the area seem to have run dry. All you can feel is wet dirt from leaky plumbing some ways.
- <Cleff> (I meant like the held item)
- <Kain> Roll Wis
- <Cleff> 37
- <Kain> You pull up a small, smooth stone from a dried out aquifier.
- <Kain> It's still slightly damp.
- Cleff holds onto the rock and concentrates her faith. Not just in herself, but in her allies as well. She tries to borrow from their strength to call down a rain for these people.
- <Cleff> (Trying to use channel divinity, literally EVERY SINGLE LEGEND I'm linked to can learn rain dance)
- <Kain> You don't even need to channel divinity.
- <Cleff> (one of them has to have it)
- <Kain> There's a crack of thunder.
- <Cleff> (:D)
- <Kain> And a gust of wind.
- <Kain> And suddenly it begins to pour buckets over the crops, every drop curving around you and missing entirely.
- <Kain> You stay mystically dry.
- <Kain> You hear some cheering from the crowd of people that followed you.
- <Kain> "Praise Landora!" "Whoo! Awesome!" "Thank God we're saved!"
- Cleff smiles, "Now then, your barren men and women to me."
- <Cleff> "Is there a well, or a lake, or any nearby body of water?"
- <Kain> There don't seem to be that many in the village. They bring forward two women, and one man.
- <Kain> The mayor responds. "There's a well in town, but it's starting to go dry. There should still be some water..."
- <Cleff> "Show the way."
- <Kain> She leads you back into town, a little distance from the town square. There's a cute little well that's since been converted into a wishing well because of sanitary reasons, but people seem to have been drawing water out of it lately.
- Cleff reaches up to her neck, trusting her instincts on this one. She doesn't know that this will work, but this is not a matter of knowing. She plucks a pearl from her necklace, and casts it into the well.
- <Kain> Plunk~
- <Kain> The people watch. =O
- Cleff blesses that pearl with her own faith. "Sip from the waters of this well, and it shall fill you with the virility you desire, so long as you have faith."
- <Kain> The two women and the man thank you profusely and begin to draw water from the well.
- Cleff floats up and on over to the town square by the mountain.
- <Kain> The mayor regards you as the people turn to watch.
- <Kain> You noticed that the rock's actually gotten a little bit bigger.
- <Cleff> "Every day, continue the dance I had shown you and pray, and your crops shall continue to flourish."
- <Cleff> "Every night, have your barren men and women sip from the well and pray, and your bodies shall flourish."
- <Cleff> "And for all time, love your fellows and believe in each other, and your souls shall flourish."
- <Kain> You hear them cheer and praise your name. The mayor speaks up, bowing her head. "We are not worthy, Landora... thank you."
- <Cleff> "No matter what you desire, if you have faith until the very end and try your hardest, anything is possible. Hold these words true to your heart and spread them to others."
- <Kain> "We will. Thank you for your wise words this day..."
- <Kain> "And your blessings..."
- <Kain> You feel your praise growing!
- Cleff smiles upon the town.
- <Kain> Landora is treated as three levels higher, no change in experience.
- <Kain> This will persist as long as you keep at least this level of faith.
- <Kain> Aaaand
- <Kain> For establishing your religion
- <Kain> Let's say you get a free From the Source, Divine Inspiration, or Vassal
- <Cleff> (I'll take a vassal)
- <Kain> Oh boy
- <Kain> (Male Psychic/Earth Shaker/Empath, congrats you got Klark)
- <Kain> (Want to try again?)
- <Cleff> (hmmmm)
- <Cleff> (sure)
- <Kain> The people of the town are practically bowing at your feet and at the Mountain of Faith.
- <Kain> (Wild Child/Hunter/Herbalist)
- <Kain> (That's more interesting at least)
- Cleff smiles, "I must leave now. But if you are in need once again, pray for my aid and guidance, and you shall recieve it."
- <Cleff> (even if I haven't a damn clue how any of it works)
- <Kain> The mayor bows to you again. "Blessed is your presence, goddess."
- <Kain> (What, those classes?)
- <Kain> (Or prayer?)
- <Cleff> (those classes)
- <Kain> (Haha)
- <Kain> (I'll have to do a mini sometime where you meet him)
- <Kain> "We thank you from the bottom of our hearts."
- <Cleff> "Let your faith empower not only me, but yourselves as well. I give you these blessings in hopes that they may help your souls bloom beautifully, and spread the beauty of their goodness throughout the world."
- <Cleff> (None (2) +5% final EXP gain for Pokemon per 20 levels)
- <Kain> (no :3)
- <Cleff> (aww you bitch)
- <Kain> (I'm already letting you use a lucky egg, this is just one more thing to stop you from retiring Cleff early)
- <Kain> (Even if you'd need 6 level 100 materials)
- <Kain> (to make a +25% exp item)
- <Cleff> (without ford and the second lucky egg)
- <Cleff> (There's no way I'd gain exp fast enough to become broken and have to leave :B)
- <Cleff> (if you let me have the second lucky egg)
- <Kain> (Oh well)
- <Cleff> (I would have true merger already :B)
- <Kain> (Yeah that's why I was like no)
- <Kain> (Anyway)
- <Cleff> (I would be at level 1 though :B)
- <Kain> Anyway, what do
- <Cleff> (Well do they react to the last thing I said?)
- <Kain> The villagers are taking your lessons to heart, murmuring amongst each other. Most seem too afraid to address you directly now. The mayor merely smiles, nodding.
- <Cleff> "Farewell."
- Cleff flies off up high to the clouds.
- <Kain> "Of course we will. People of Dale, I propose that we declare today a holiday, and from here form the first church of Landora!"
- <Kain> Er
- <Kain> *form a church
- <Kain> You zoom off as she says this.
- <Kain> And indeed there was someone struck tenderly by your words who'll be a priest. It'll be easy to keep faith in Dale.
- Cleff decides to check something once she's up there. She feels around for the presence of the last time a legendary pokemon has been here.
- <Cleff> omen auto-succeeds
- <Kain> Oh hey, it was two days ago.
- <Kain> (Oh wait)
- <Kain> (UP THERE?)
- <Kain> (In the clouds)
- <Cleff> (yes)
- <Kain> (Not in dale)
- <Kain> Merely minutes ago.
- Cleff thinks... and tries to beckon these presences. "Was it you, my brothers? Please, I would like to thank you."
- <Kain> More winds blow, and suddenly two shapes spiral out of the clouds.
- <Kain> <Sup dude? Wasn't a problem!> one says, a blue genie with a lightning-bolt shaped bit of hair flowing behind him, and a tail covered in spiked balls.
- <Kain> <Anytime, sis. We're always here for you.> another says, a green genie with two horns and a cloud/wing-like hairdo, who is circled by a ring-like tail with gold wind-like trimming.
- <Kain> (Oh shit)
- <Kain> (Forgot to close that)
- <Cleff> (hmmm)
- <Cleff> (Can we celebi retcon that if I successfully roll shiny find and shiny hunt :3c)
- <Kain> (Whyyy)
- <Cleff> (not that their shiny forms are much different)
- <Kain> (I usually make an entire trio shiny if they are)
- <Kain> (And you're not :B)
- <Cleff> (Who's to say I'm not?)
- <Cleff> (I'm the only one)
- <Cleff> (So where's the frame of reference?)
- <Kain> (I don't know, do you really want to be that color)
- <Cleff> (I can barely tell the difference anyway)
- <Cleff> (it's just orange instead of reddish orange)
- <Kain> Alright then, you're all retconned shiny
- <Cleff> (yaay)
- <Kain> They swirl around you a bit before coming to a stop.
- <Kain> <Hah, I covered more land.>
- <Kain> <Yeah? Well I poured more water. So THERE, man.>
- <Kain> (Oops)
- <Kain> <Anyway, how you been doin' sis?>
- Cleff puts her arms around them and hugs them close, pressing up against them. "You both did wonderfully~"
- <Kain> <Everything alright with Groudon?>
- <Kain> They hug back. ...For some reason, they don't seem to register that you're not Landorus.
- <Kain> Or rather, that there WAS a Landorus.
- Cleff is just happy that they're willing to accept her as family as much as she was willing to do for them.
- <Cleff> "I haven't gotten much of a chance to speak with him, but I believe I shall soon enough."
- <Kain> <Good, good. Anyway, if you ever need anything, give us a ringading, okay? Unless you wanna hang out now or something.>
- <Kain> (Test)
- <Cleff> (it's nice and eye bleeding)
- <Kain> <You didn't lose your phone did you dude?>
- <Cleff> "Well..." she searches around for her phone. She even checks the breast pocket.
- <Kain> Oh, there it is.
- <Kain> You pull out a huge phone.
- <Cleff> "Right here. I'll tell you if I need anything."
- <Kain> <Awesome. Seeya round then, Dora!>
- <Kain> <Bye, sis, take care and stay out of trouble.>
- <Cleff> "I will. Thanks again for the help."
- <Kain> They nod and then zoom off in opposite directions.
