Week one

[letsplayamod]

You've all met Athena, and she's made her point quite clear. She's fully committed to making this world better, and you're the ones who agreed to lend a hand. Something she's obviously quite thankful for.

It's really not so bad around here. Despite the sky, and the state of the land, things are fairly calm. You've got plenty of time to get used to it, and each other. Maybe this'll be easier than it seems.

[ haha let's not talk about that mess with Death 🙃 ]

Yeah, I...I don't really wanna write anything off, anymore. [ He says that low and somewhat bitterly, before he moves on- ] My...

[ He breathes out. ]

My girlfriend and I, we liked to talk about...other worlds. Other places. Places where things were...better. I guess if I wanna believe in all that, all this...fantastical stuff, it's just one step beyond that.

[necromants]

[hahaha. yeah.]

It certainly seems to be! Ah, if only I had been snatched up sooner...

[What a waste. Oh well.]

Regardless, I am pleased to be here now, and should my... domain prove useful in some way, then I've no problems helping out.

[lmao. lol. how the hell is "death" gonna help revitalize this world. athena wtf, you really chose poorly.]

[rockymountaindie]

[ hahaha. ha.......

Alex kind of...rolls back what he read in his mind. Which one is this guy... All the information plus the statue appearances, that was a lot, so he can't really place it. ]

Which one're you?

[necromants]

[With the same far-too-cheerful smile for the answer he gives:] Death.

1/3

[rockymountaindie]

[rockymountaindie]

[ oh sON OF A- ]

3/3

[rockymountaindie]

...Oh.

[necromants]

If it makes you feel any better, [it probably won't!] I have no interest in finding out why your Death was after you or continuing their work.

[rockymountaindie]

Y-yeah. Yeah, that's...not worse. [ You're right! It doesn't! ] And, like... It's not like what we've been given here really, uh, reflects on us anyway. Right?

[necromants]

Precisely! It's likely just a mockery of an old nickname I had, anyway.

[he's so helping!!!! (no)]

[rockymountaindie]

[ ...okay, completely casually, like, ]

Whaaat nickname?

[necromants]

"The Necromancer".

[fun!]

I have never succeeded in bringing anyone back to life, though. Truly an ill-fitting title.

[i'm so sorry about him.]

[rockymountaindie]

[ ...HM. ]

What have you succeeded in to, uh...get that kinda title thrown around?

[necromants]

Well, I am quite the skilled healer. I have managed to bring someone back from near-fatal injuries before. But the emphasis is on near, there. My magic can only do so much; I cannot restore lost limbs, for example.

[This is absolutely not the reason, but let's not get into that. We will be here for five+ hours if he actually gets started talking about his research and Alex will be horrified.]

[rockymountaindie]

...I'd be way more surprised if you could, honestly.

[ the healing magic culture shock is huge right now, so yeah, that is probably a good idea. ]

Kinda...surprising, then, that you got the...you know, that. Seems like you'd be a much better fit for what I got than me.

[necromants]

"Life", is it?

[Opposite ends of the spectrum. So Alex is probably like, an actually good person.]

I imagine there must be some reason as to what domains we received, so perhaps we should ask Lady Athena about it the next time we see her.

[rockymountaindie]

...Yeah. That's the one.

[ He should...go back and study everyone's better. So he can remember. That'll probably be important. ]

She's been...really forthcoming so far, so... I guess, yeah. Just asking's the fastest way to get an answer.

[necromants]

[A nod!]

I doubt she has any reason to keep that from us, anyway. Understanding why we were chosen for these roles and how best to fill them can only benefit her, after all.

[rockymountaindie]

[ Alex makes a soft sound of agreement, though... ]

It's all...a lot to take in, isn't it? That we're gonna...somehow fix this place. Be gods.

[ "What, are you god now?!"
"Gods aren't afraid to die! Gods don't die, we do!"

If only Carter could see him now. ]

[necromants]

It is quite a difficult idea to get used to.

[The power isn't the same, this time. It isn't enough.]

But I'm sure she knows what she's doing, even if we don't. With any luck, she'll prove to be a good guide for us.

[rockymountaindie]

You got that kinda faith in her?

[necromants]

Well, I see no reason to doubt her word right now. "Faith" is perhaps a bit of a stretch, though. I'm not particularly religious.

[Hahaha.]

[rockymountaindie]

[ He snorts, briefly. ]

Yeah, nah. Me neither.
