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.

Post Cube Announcement
Phil really shouldn't be contacting him directly. Hell, half of his brain screams at him as he writes this to turn back, but he wanted Elias to know. He wanted Elias to know how despite everything the Fog did, the most scared he's ever been in this hellhole was all thanks to him.]
So your precious Cube is fixed.
All the complaining you did about what horrible people we were and it's back after two months like nothing happened.
[He wonders if he should stop there. Let the thought linger, but...]
I hope you're happy.
Happy that your precious building that took you barely any time to fix and probably cost you nothing was worth more than me. Worth more than having to live in fear of killing the few things in this universe that I care about.
Do you know that I'm friends with people who follow you? Shocker I know. What would happen if I lost control and killed them. Would you feel bad for me? Would you regret having one of your followers killed? Would you care if I started crying in agony feeling their dying thoughts, still unsatisfied? Or would you just chalk it up to "well Fog also does bad things so why should I give a shit".
You probably stopped reading by now, I bet. Probably rolling your eyes and thinking that I'm a shallow, selfish bastard who only cares about himself. You're right, I am.
But at least I own up to it, and at least I don't make people who disagree with me live in fear of what I'll do to them if they step out of line.
I guess my point is, if your goal was making me afraid of you, you accomplished it.
Congratulations.
[He's forcing himself to not respond with anything Elias's posts. In his mind, nothing he could say could make up for the fear he lived under, especially over something so inconsequential.]
no subject
But whenever he next tries to go to sleep, he'll feel a crackling from the nearest machine in his bedroom. It's a prickling static with no sound, heat without the power switch flipped on. It's subtle enough that he might think his own mind is warring against him.
In his dreams, he'll hear the small whisper in the tones of an adolescent boy:]
afraid of me
but not afraid of killing people to eat
just because you dont know them
doesnt mean youre not making them suffer
i see you
i know you
but do you really know
who you follow?
be careful
ok?
i can forgive you
if youre willing to try
you just have to prove
you wont cause any more trouble
with my stuff
and my people...
[The static will plague Phil's dreams for the rest of his rest. This time, it's not malicious, but it might get damn annoying by the time he gets himself up for his day.]
