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.

Don't you dare say that!! She doesn't know me and you don't know me! If we can't agree on what's right or wrong then I understand but don't you say that I've been twisted by her. I've been here for a year, suffering over every single soul I devour with no way out, putting the weight of my weakness on others because I'm not strong enough to bear it on my own.
Do you think I want to hurt people?
Do you think I want to be violent? No! I don't want to hurt or be hurt! Monsters shouldn't have to feel pain like this, and if I could stop everyone's pain and the hunger forced on them by taking it into myself, then I would because no one, not a single monster on this peninsula or the humans that we have to eat deserve the pain they feel! I know she's wrong!!
[Ryou doesn't know why he had to say that, he's not sure why he felt the need to justify himself to another "god" over this kind of thing, but it cuts deep to be told that the Fog has her hooks in him. It's not true!
Is it? Is...he sympathetic to the Fog, just because of her followers? No...no those are just his friends.
Right? Y-yeah...they're just friends who are hurting, and who are doing what they can to survive in this place.]
I'm sorry if blowing up the building hurt you. But it was a causality created by your imperfect method. The price that must be paid is not requisite over a building, versus the people.
[Mukuro told him they'd tried to spare everyone inside...he believes her. She's good.]

Elias thinks carefully. And when he shapes his reply, the words double up, searing the inside of Ryou’s mind with a soft boyish whisper at the same time text appears on his screen.]
im sorry
youre a good person ryou
i know youd take on so much pain
if it meant sparing everyone else
and keeping the rest of the peninsula safe
im sorry i havent broken the pattern of hunger and death
or found a permanent place away from her touch
im sorry so many people are getting hurt
but
im scared
im scared that youre getting swept away by lies
by your friends and their devotion to her whispers
did you see who they worked with?
theres mukuro and souda and
fid dle ford
of course
but theres also horrible men
real monsters
who skinned people alive
and turned them into books
for fun
:(
the building isnt the only thing that matters
your reasoning is faulty
its reductive
and youre missing what her influence blinded you to
please be careful
im worried about you
watch your step
[The warmth dissolves. There’s a palpable breeze, a draft through a window, a chill, pushing the latent energy out, and Ryou is left with only those three words silent and still on his laptop:
watch your step.]
