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.

[Red Riding Hood has been thinking about this on her own. She doesn't like the fog a bit. The transformations... it's too familiar. She doesn't know what to do for gods; she didn't really interact much with the religious types in the Jail. So, she turns to what she remembers most.

That is, she sets a basket filled with warm bread and handmade baked goods. ...plus a hat. She doesn't know if Elias can wear hats or not but as a headwear enthusiast she felt it was appropriate.]

elias, right? i was thinkin about joining up with your group

[It's true. There's something that's been on her mind, though.]

i got a question, though. before i came here i had, uh, a condition. real garbage. kind of like the hunger here but it wouldn't go away after a meal
if we kick the old witch out would that come back? i'll help either way but i won't say i'll miss it if doesn't

[A crackle surges from Red Riding Hood's speakers. It sounds like laughter -- laughter with a heck of a lot of interference from static, bad connections, and whatnot, but laughter from a young boy nonetheless.]

hello to you too
red riding hood

[Her screen lights up with plain cream text on a black background, easy on the eyes. The cursor blinks for a few seconds in contemplation to give her space to acknowledge his greeting. The crackling dies, laughter ebbing away, and Elias continues.]

i wouldnt let that happen to you
to any of my friends
we can stay together instead
in peace
away from everything bad

and if some of us want to go home
well
we can work on something to help them too

but itd be nice to make our own world
a better world
dont you think?

[snippingtime]

glad you like the gifts!

[At least... she figures that's what the laughter is. She's smiling a little at least. This seems hopeful at least.]

well i wouldn't mind making a new place. other than a certain weather witch this is already better than my own place.

[No Blood Skelter. Plenty of people. Not being underground.]

if i can help make a new place that... maybe other people who show up go to instead that might not be so bad. especially if that condition never comes back.

[Honestly, Red is practically rubbing her hands together. She got a cure in exchange for something she was going to do anyway. She's the best big sister ever.]

i love them
why dont you take them
to my safe place
at the arcade?

[Elias has a lot of machines, a lot of robots. A little pixelated image of a robot picking up a hat and placing it on its head blinks across Red Riding Hood's screen. How cute! The robot smiles and does a little, jerky robo-dance.]

if you really want to help me
as my friend
ill give you a key and a room
you can bring the treats and the cool hat with you
to share with everyone

[snippingtime]

! you have a place like that? i'd love to!

[Red Riding Hood now will put all the hats on all the robots.

That is, she nods at her screen.]

treats and headwear are to be had by everyone! and everyone could use more friends, right?

[fourthmade]

right
you seem like a really good friend
sharing what you have
ill share what i have with you too

[An arcade key-card pops out of a slot in the laptop, ready to be used to get into the arcade and her room there.]

a key to my place away from anything bad
and some power too
if you want
something to help keep my friends safe
until we can make all the bad things go away

ill see you there
( :

[The screen flickers off and the remaining text disappears, leaving only the key behind, proof that it all really happened.]
