Mythos

[X] Nhwereoma: Approach Miru and offer aid to his predicament. Attempt to manipulate the Blacklight commandment as to centralize on Miru and this heart I'm about to give them, so that it stops spreading wildly and only does so if Miru wills it. Try to introduce an adjustment to the curse so that those who bear it will become as law-abiding as possible to Miru and the laws they are under. Explain the preceding acts to Miru as the aid. Let my heart beat once so that the law of "You shall never willingly commit evil acts." will be heard by all of the Knights. Try to get the Blacklight to spread to me to see if this works. If Miru somehow denies my aid, seek out that Hole in the Sky and see if I can form a sea in that.

[X] Shang-Houzi: Go and congratulate Forseina on her accomplishment. Maybe you could organize a party/feast for her and possibly make some plants that could be turned into alcoholic beverages? During/after the festivities offer her your puzzle blessing.

By the way, did Shang see what happened with March getting scratched since he has the "Ape's Eyes" thing?
I know it's a really low chance but I figure I'd ask anyways since it's still A chance.

[X] Tabula Rasa: I shall create life. Because of peer pressure. So I'm going to head home, put on some jazz ("borrow" some of the Orchestra), and get to work.
-[X] Form: Forged from the memories of the most feared sights of mortal kind and hewn from nothingness itself, they should emerge as ethereal entities, their existence to be bound within glimmering shells fashioned in my image.
-[X] Function: Deathless and unceasing, they need only craft another shell to contain their true selves. However, if they go too long without such a container, they will tragically fade into the general nothing that pervades reality. These shells will never live up to the originals I am creating here.

  • [X] The Twins: It feels wrong to go back on what they already did, but they can still make it up to the other gods by purifying the Machine of Unspeakable Horror.
    [X] Ruliana: Update the System of Rank. Ruliana will add achievements to the Record of Rank that any person with the Symbol of Rank can earn. These achievements have higher values depending on how difficult and/or exclusive they are and are only counted after a person gets the symbol of rank so any achievements earned before getting the Symbol of Rank are not counted. When a high enough achievement value is earned, that person's rank will go up. The value requirement goes up exponentially with rank. Some difficult achievements, such as "The First Bearer of Rank" or "The First of X Race" are unique and have incredibly high values.
    [X] March of Cogs: Go mope be a productive god and set up a base in the Cliffs Of Howling Hatred, use all of the March resources and cogs to do it

I would love to hear about those!
The 3 Tribes of Mythos are mainly a society of explorers, checking out the ruins of Mythos and bringing back any cool leftover trinkets that are sometimes found in some buildings
Like
- Half an ovaloid with a mass of flexible striped pipes coming out of the side
- A stone mask of a 3-eyed face laughing with teeth shaped like flowers
- Depiction of a being with a muscly humanoid body and a head resembling the Divine Womb making love to another muscly humanoid man
- Long cylinder covered in barbs, a small section has been cut out revealing insides being nothing but interwoven steal wires with tiny stars carved into them

The 3 Tribes are organized when it comes to food since not many places on the city of Mythos can grow crops, and it's only possible at all thanks to dirt and plants brought back by the gods, so the process is strictly managed
Most items and accessories in Mythos are made of stone, cloth and other materials used for clothing are difficult to get so they're all just regularly naked except for piercings they sometimes manage to create

Because of this lack of clothing and proper fires they sleep in warmth piles, all still naked by the way, they don't see it as weird so you shouldn't ruin the sleepy piles for them
Also carvers are pretty big parts of their society, they use stone shards which they sometimes refine into proper chisels to make parts of the city into weapons and tools

Skin on skin contact is a normal thing even among strangers in the 3 Tribes, the city is not that warm so hugs are a greeting for some extra warmth throughout the day
There is actually a market to pay other folks with extra finger-tumours and fruit in exchange for getting spooned in a very comfortable manner

Aka, Mythos needs more wildlife, also water they mainly just collect it from ponds that form atop some high-up buildings

The Wukates have it WAAAAAAY better, they live pretty much near idyllic lives in the wilds (Except for the cog assaults and sometimes accidents that come from having tribal level tech, no proper medical care being an example), eating fruit and sometimes slicing them apart and putting the 2 halfs together to make new flavours

They're more individualistic and carefree with no centralized government, mainly anarchy, tribes are barely even that, they're more like friend groups
Painting using crushed fruits is a good passtime of their depicting the gods and other weird things they see, they exclusively use wood and other materials from forests since metal scares them after the Boyui irons attacked
They wear clothes that are mainly leaves, vines, and bark armour plates painted with goofy faces

Traps and trickery are a specialty of the Wukate ever since the Cogs attacked, they know how to prepare spike pitfalls, they drop logs from their homes in the canopies of tall trees, and have a special signal for when it's time to throw fruit into a Cog's optical sensors

Wukate villages are mainly gatherings of people sized baskets hanging in the highest canopies of the trees, they make sure to bunch all the branches with tons of leaves together above them when it rains, they sometimes decorate the branches their basket-bed is held up by with personal symbols and goofy faces

Forseina has the big basket-bed which can only be held by the entire canopy of a single very large tree, it's obviously huge cause of the 30 wives

The Boyui-Irons only managed to attack those villages by throwing sharp rocks and shaking trees till Wukates fell into their arms

Maybe, if the sheep monster can eat fingers
Okay, I just got a very weird image in my head after reading this.

Also, maybe someone should create a staircase or something similar, so that the people of Mythos could have the means to explore the rest of the world. Anyone that would be interested in doing that?. Just curious.

This combined with Tabula Rasa's first action seems strange. Between that and the mortal strongmans, is reality somewhat bending to them? I don't know why they're imagining it as ruins but the most offputting knowable thing that follows this line of thought is that Divine Womb figure, which hasn't really done anything since the Gods were conceived.

ponds that form atop some high-up buildings
This is ponds formed out of rain right? Not ex-nihilo spooky stuff?

All in all, it's a nice arcadia, though Mythos is a bit worryingly vulnerable to a sudden falling accident.

I just call them ruins cause they're old dusty abandoned and all unrecognizable from whatever their original purposes may be, the trinkets were also always there just very rare
