A TERRIBLE THING IS HAPPENING

reference books detailing myths and legends stolen from libraries...
wikipedia pages wiped clean from the face of the internet...
ancient stained glass windows smashed and destroyed...
historical research centers burnt to the ground...

Someone out there is trying very, very hard to erase all of the possible sources of power and belief of the ancient gods and goddesses. And it hurts. Whilst the powers of the minders are unharmed by the attacks, the gods and goddesses will be certainly feeling the toll: it's now painfully clear that even the simplest of miracles are now becoming almost impossible to perform.

deities, you had better have gifted your minders with some decent blessings! Because now you're going to rely on them more than ever. Someone is out to get you.

[perjurer]

What can I say?
I'm a very very bad man.

But the Morning Star and I are having a chitchat.
If there's anything you'd like to pitch into the pot, well.
It's for a good cause.

[colubri]

[perjurer]

Immunity, from the likes of the Greco-Romans and the likes of you.

[ Essentially, a rock and a hard place. ]

Go on. Sweeten the deal.

[colubri]

[The loss of his silver tongue and usual wit makes this extremely dangerous territory to tread, but he doesn't see much choice right now.]

[perjurer]
