The deities are intent upon demanding a sacrifice after nine days. For those who haven't seen, there are three kinds. First is a red bow. This is a self-sacrifice, presenting oneself as a martyr for one's world. Next is a black bow. This is the hunter's sacrifice, another slain for the community. Then, there is a gold bow. This is a non-blood

Sacrificing friends is not an option.

[theinfinite_667]

Then we're in agreement on Rubedo. The rest of you, I don't care whether you live or die.

[heartxofxcruxis]

So protective.

[theinfinite_667]

And if someone wanted to cut Martel's throat and hand her over to the deities that took your power and gave it away, what would you do?

[heartxofxcruxis]

I'd take them and destroy them.

Martel isn't here though.

[theinfinite_667]

Precisely. Therefore, my warning still stands.

Be glad she's not. This place is enough of a cesspit without family being involved. At least one of my brothers left. Not the right one, though...

[red_dragon_666]

Cool it. Nobody's going to kill me, all right? I'm glad that you--

We'll figure something else out, like how the gold bow works.

[theinfinite_667]

We're not giving up anything to them. They don't deserve it; we don't have to give it.

[red_dragon_666]

We have to do SOMETHING, but...not today. Everyone's sick.

[theinfinite_667]

We resist. Sit on your laurels today if you like, but watch as the days count down. Be ready. When we don't cooperate, they'll come after us.
