Anyway so like we can agree that to at least some extent Gortash probably had such a liking for Durge because Durge is among the most capable and dangerous people to exist, and they admired him, presumably liked him even. Which, for someone who craves power likely as a form of self protection due to childhood trauma, is probably a VERY good feeling. The assurance and comfort that would provide. Right.

Anyway anyway, imagine a post-canon Durge raising hell and waging war with Bane himself to get Gortash's soul back and save him from an eternity of torture for failing as his God's chosen. Imagine if they won. Imaging how Gortash would feel about that.

Note to self: word prayers better when doing divinatory sessions

I think I've mentioned this before, but I do yes/no stone pulls on Sundays to ask for guidance about maintaining my health re: my commute because it's 2-2.5 hours each way via public transit if everything runs on time. It's rough on me in multiple ways and can lead to even more migraines than usual or being too fatigued to work at all, and it can be difficult to tell whether I'll have the spoons to go in person.

This past Sunday I was exhausted & stressed because of, you know, the horrors, and said my initial prayer a little differently than I usually do. I still invoked Apollo and Hermes as always, as both of them cover divination by lots, Apollo's domain covers health & disease, and he's the one I turn to for divination by default.

Now, the vast majority of the guidance and lessons Apollo has given have had to do with recognizing my physical & mental limits, especially around this issue. The answers I was getting this time around were...odd but not quite in the way they have been with just dud pulls, so I started asking clarifying questions to figure out what was going on. After a few - establishing that there was a reason for the answers but it wasn't a test or punishment or Apollo messing with me (which would have been. odd) - I realized that while I'd invoked Hermes as a god of divination by lots alongside Apollo, I had not explicitly asked him to act as a messenger and aid in communication this time around, nor had I asked Apollo to guide the divination session with the wording I usually use.

I think you can see where I'm going with this.

I re-said the prayer (correctly this time) and confirmed that it was, in fact, Hermes at first while re-doing the initial set of questions (which were much more consistent in the usual way), as well as confirming that the issue was the prayer wording. Lesson learned lol

“Take me to church/ I’ll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies/ I’ll tell you my sins, and you can sharpen your knife/ Offer me that deathless death/ Oh good God, let me give you my life”

thats kinda gay, crowley..

uhh Björn is responsible for some of the runes in Hagia Sophia, at least one (1) is some silly thing about how much he and Heracles love each other. They joke they're gonna climb back up there eventually and add something about how they're still together <3

the thing with shri’iia is that she’s not significant to lolth in any way at all. she assumes that when she received her paladin talents, it was a blessing from lolth for succeeding her trials. she thinks that’s her hard work has paid off, and all the lying and cheating and every little thing she did was well worth it because she’s been finally recognised by her dark goddess. she thinks that she’s exactly the person she’s meant to be now that she earned lolth’s favour, but in reality, she achieved her paladin talents from her own devotion and belief of lolth’s doctrine - it was hers from the beginning. and when she loses her oath it’s not lolth forsaking her per say, it’s more of her denying that very doctrine and she’s shaking away from that belief so she’s the one who caused her own downfall too. I do think there will be a part where lolth punishes her though (in my head it’s when she’s visits the drow cache in the underdark and she gets nuked via spiders) just because she doesn’t take traitors well, but other than that lolth does not care for her at all. she’s not significant enough, and there are others who are far more important than her with far greater backgrounds and social standing. but that doesn’t make shri’iia’s devotion to her any less greater. if anything, she would try to devote herself more. she wants to be someone special, and she wants to be noticed by her but she will never be because she’s not special enough. there’s nothing significant about her. so she’s stuck in that cycle of perpetually chasing the approval of an uncaring god and she would’ve been continuing had she not been forcibly removed from that wheel.
