A Sword Without a Hilt: A Song of Ice and Fire/D&D 3.5 Crossover

Reader mode
Can't we just ignore the pacts present and just outlaw them for future. A land being slightly more friendly isn't that big a deal.

[X] Plan Digging Deeper
-[X] Put the following on the agenda for next month:
--[X] Send teams that will investigate the effects of the pacts that already exist, find out where the rituals where enacted and how they are tied together.
--[X] Send teams to contact those lords who rejected deals to ally.
--[X] Send teams to negotiate with any lord who is being offered a pact right now or will soon be offered one to stop further pacts.
--[X] Also recruit any unaligned Fey in the Reach you might find.
-[X] You will refine the idea of a counter-ritual once you are more informed about the exact nature of effects you are fighting.
-[X] Move on to the topic of eliminating CoS envoys.

Can we also ask Bloodraven, perhaps aided by Vee or Softstrider to map out ideal locations to raise Heart Trees to extend the OGs ability to perceive magical and other supernatural influences throughout the Reach?

If we're fine with dedicating the Heart Tree's effects to hiding and protecting the tree, we could get away with defending them using a minimum of forces, while having the insights provided by the OG could dramatically enhance our efforts to learn the ins and outa of the Fey ritual.

I'd wait with that until we got more intel. If we are lucky we can find a way to sabotage their deals by taking over ley lines.
 
@Crake the "violate sovereignty" killed me.
However, I don't believe most of the thread gives a damn about sovereignty. It's about ownership. Our place, our stuff, our world. If you want the rights generally associated with "sovereignty", you've gotta prove you can defend your personal property against all comers like a true AnCap muderhobo!

Never, because Lucan is acutely aware of what it means to just accept the lesser evil.

People having convictions and stuff.

He did send one of his Septons to SD, precisely to see whether he thought the faith of the Seven could prosper under our rule, Lucan isn't totally against compromise, he have his limits, and negotiating with him will be hard, but it can be done.

Because we're so ridiculously charismatic that even he is charmed by us.

Put one way, Tom of Sevenstreams is considered charming by Westerosi standards--and he is, but he's not Viserys "charm your pants off unintentionally" charming.

Ah, if only we could have built Viserys a bi harem....

Thread!Viserys: "It's just some trinkets, I don't see what the big deal is."

Real Viserys: "I don't understand how this always works. I do it often enough, why don't I understand???"

Lya: "...Hold still, I need to poke your soul."

Viserys: "WAIT NO--"

Thread-Zeitgeist-Hivemind: "LOOTKILLSCHEMELOOTKILLSCHCEMEPLOTMURDERCONQUESTINNOVATERESEARCHPRESSINGBOUNDARIESVIOLATESOVEREIGNTY"

Lya: "Well the good news, you've got something like the Old Gods attached to your soul..."

Viserys: "That's the GOOD news?!"

So we're basically the player hivemind from Twitch Plays Pokemon.

Great. I wonder when he is going to come up with the fucking results and tell us what he thinks. @DragonParadox has the Septon spent enough time in SD for him to have come to a conclusion or does he need more time?

Rather skin him.

To be clear I know it won't be worth much material wise and probably detrimental in the long run, but it'd give me all kinds of closure.

Oh, there are still Leylines everywhere. The Forges are powered by Leylines.

Even if the old Leylines were shattered, new Leylines should have cropped up, after all in this quest Leylines is generated by people, in that they collect the energy, created by people doing things, that if they were dedicated to a god would empower that god, that aren't dedicated to a god, so even if you shatter the leylines, if there are still people there, or new people arrive new leylines should grow, because the source of the leylines are still there.

Or did I remember wrong about how Leylines function?

You made me laugh way more than I made you laugh.
 
I think we will be leaving things at two updates today guys, they have both been rather large and complex (very fun also of course) and I really don't feel like I should be sacrificing quality writing past midnight.

Both chapters today were top notch, and added together are longer than three normal chapters. You spoil us, DP.

No lie. I am bit leary of basing our sensor network on the OG. I would prefer if the Imperial god can do it instead. We don't control the old god.
 
Don't forget to vote, y'all.
