This is a place to send your prayers to the Fourth god. He may not always respond, or he may respond in ways you don’t expect, but he is always listening.

Speak, he hears you.

OOC note:  As of April 2020, threads with the gods will be capped at three NPC replies! Please keep this in mind when writing god prayers to make sure you get everything you need out of the thread.It’s also possible to handwave prayers by titling your comment HANDWAVED PRAYER. Handwaved prayers lack our usual flourish, but you can expect a faster response!

As of February 2024, god prayers will be handwaved only. Please only submit a prayer if you have a question for either god which needs answering in order to progress your character's arc within Ryslig. If this is something you need to tier up within the god boon system, or just to set up a player plot in general, please don't hesitate to submit a prayer about it! You may shorten it down to an OOC summary of what your character is asking. This will allow any of our helper mods to reply much faster, without having to dig into the specifics of either god's personality/writing quirks. Should this limitation be lifted again in the future, this note will be removed.

[You're immortal, too. That would have been the case, wouldn't it? If the transfer to the Scout body had worked? Well, he is - just not how he'd planned, or ever wanted.]

I won't give up. I won't, [he says fiercely, more to himself than Elias.]

I've been thinking since Dandy destroyed that information center. I should make more, put them more places, and make them tamper-proof.

It'll be hard, take a lot of coding, but I can do it. I can make something that warns people that they'll be hurt if they tamper with it, and it can give them a shock. [He sits up and grabs his notebook from the bedside table.] I've already started drawing up schematics. I'm going to need to ask for materials, of course, but I think this will work.

[The gaming machines burble and surge with interest. At Deon's right, a Pong machine bats a ball idly back and forth, back and forth, the beat mirroring the swing of a pendulum.]

i like that
protect our centers
trap them
leave them all the signs to tell them whats coming if they try any funny business

it isnt lying :)
look for components at liewen labs
and with mana
if you want magic wards
i know liewen is helmed by her eyes now
but wouldnt it be funny
if you could take what they think they own and make it work for us?

[That actually makes him smile. It's something he hasn't been doing a lot of lately.] Oh, that would be funny.

And I would be giving every indication that any tampering would result in something the tamperer may not like. It would absolutely be like, well, like opting to touch an electric fence. Nothing fatal, but enough to warn someone not to try again. Of course, there'd need to be something else, too, since a shock would be foiled with rubber...yes, yes, I think this is going to work very well, especially with things from Liewen.

Maybe I can finally get something good going.

I'm sorry I've just been failing lately. I'm going to do better. For both of us.

there arent failures
just miscalculations
we can fix those
we learn from them
we adjust the numbers
and off they go better than ever

you got this :)
im glad youre here with me

[The arcade's lights dim, and Deon is free to dream up some more ideas... and partake in all of the leftover goodies from the Fourth follower post-victory success party. They deserve a bit of celebration for their good work.]

[You're brilliant. You're an engineer. The praise kindles a warmth that suffuses through him. That's right, damn it, he is brilliant. Enough wallowing. He's got plans to dream up.

He waltzes by the leftovers from the party table and collects as many energy drinks as he can carry. This is going to be a long night.]
