I guess we could explain about our empire, and how magic is returning to the world. We don't really have much to hide from this creature. DP could decide on his own what deserves explanation and what doesn't.
Maybe start on a lower level?
That there are other cities out there (non-ruin cities) with something called civilisation where the people live and pretend they don't want to kill each other and so on.
 
So kind of an overmind then?

Or the forge has also become sentient. Fantastic.
My guess is, the Landwarden has enslaved something that allow it to communicate, as we saw with the forge in Lys, the Landwardens do get intelligence from their slaves, so if it enslaved the right creature it could certainly speak.
 
An overwind means that we will try to play diplomacy with it on the hopes that it is intelligent and can come to us peacefully. I would rather skip to the fighting if it comes to that.
Either way will work for us. If it can be diplomanced then we might be able to convince it to let us use the Flesh Forge without turning it into a Fungus Forge. If it can't be diplomanced, it will make an amazing sacrifice.

And speaking about that...

5. If we assume that we turn Gogossi Fleshforge into another MossForge as we did in Lys - would we still have infrastructure and workings necessary for us to Research in order rebuild/upgrade the Lys one available?
Or are those systems unique to a Flesh-Forge?
if the forge is indeed functional it would make more sense to ask the Old Gods to take a lighter touch in order to mentain flesh forge functionality ratther than juggling upgrades
We don't need to worry about this much.
We will get ourselves a mostly intact Flesh-Forge either way.

...And OGs would get a power-boost. And Blob would get peaceful existence.
What a total Win-win-win.

True. I am personally hoping for the latter. I would actually like to see diplomacy fail for once. It would be refreshing. Did this thing have an interesting template that we didn't have?
 
[X] Accept the deal
-[X] There's a lot of magic coming back to the world, there are many cities which are full with people- over a hundred million, from Westeros to Slaver's Bay. You are a mighty king which rules over many of those cities, great and small, and has many powerful subjects. Draw a map of the world with an illusion to show which parts of the world are currently yours (include Westeros).
-[X] Generally see how elaborate an explanation it manages to understand and tune your spiel to its level.

@DragonParadox it's kind of hard to write a "describe the entire world" when we don't reall you no where he basic perspective and knowledge, or even intelligence, of the listener, so I hope you can fill it in.

@TotallyNotEvil, mentioning dragons when we talk to it may or may not be a good thing, depending on what it knows and how much information was preserved by those who have inherited Gogossos. It might be best to leave that tidbit out for now, just in case.

The idea is to see what you guys would focus on, do you want to recruit him, are you trying to impress him with the empire, that sort of thing, it's a character moment for Viserys.
 
@TotallyNotEvil Include a basic description of different parts of the world? It would cost us very little, but to someone who has no earthly idea, having some descriptive and vivid imagery and concepts to go with each part of the map would make him more inclined to share more. To us the information costs nothing, to him it shows that we're providing good service.
