00:52:25 Devastator_ is now known as Devastator
03:48:02 Devastator: looks like a big failure there.
03:48:53 Devastator: that what failing against a d100 looks like?
03:52:27 ER: what are you even referring to?
03:55:45 Devastator: looks like running into some kinda deity wall instead of getting intel.
03:56:16 ER: far as I know, what data you got was correct
03:56:40 ER: that's not a failure, that's just your mortal mind not being able to understand the truth~
03:57:39 Devastator: well, it looks like a failure..
03:57:45 Devastator: I didn't see any plants growing, or what caused it.
03:57:50 Devastator: just ran into the force that made them grow.
04:00:38 Devastator: no indication of why here, for instance.
04:03:21 Devastator: If it's just a success that's indistinguishable from failure, well..
04:05:34 Devastator: time to go to space anyway.
04:05:49 Devastator: 'something big and wild made it' isn't a useful lead.
04:07:46 piecewise: Its not so much a failure as...well...
RC didn't make the jungle
04:09:06 Devastator: mmm, so didn't get to see them with View?
04:13:19 Devastator: ..but yeah, if that's the case, going to space first.
04:13:29 Devastator: can't fight something that doesn't actually exist.
04:20:30 Devastator: I mean, it probably won't kill me, but actually achieving victory seems tough.
04:35:37 Devastator: but maybe I'm not looking at it right.
04:36:52 ER: ooc, I know radio talked to the goddess of that jungle and got her Domain over animals, but I don't know what exactly happened
04:40:15 Devastator: I thought the jungle was from an orb that was freed by
RC.
04:40:26 Devastator: and so retroactively examining what happened would show the result.
04:40:41 Devastator: or if not that, something.
04:41:02 Devastator: but "It was created by the echo of a dead god, but you can't actually see or learn anything" is just kinda disappointing.
04:41:47 Devastator: especially with it sounding like risking death to try.
04:48:55 Devastator: " Its fangs or pincers or hooves are on your throat and it can very easily kill you without more then the slightest effort. But it doesn't. It is staring down at you with that unfathomable bestial mind, its reasons and judgement unknowable."
04:49:09 Devastator: I mean.. yeah, it's not really there, but who can say that it can't do a mind crush or something?
04:49:22 ER: but that's something which happened long ago, and not to you
04:49:34 ER: you didn't experince that, you just remembered it
04:49:50 Devastator: Yeah, but being crushed in my mind can be just as fatal..
04:51:31 Devastator: I really just don't know anything, and kinda got slapped around for trying, so..
04:51:41 Devastator: I'll give it another shot after space.
04:52:56 Devastator: at least there's some lore.
08:17:13 Devastator: hmm, I'll just shorten it to a few factual questions.
09:10:01 Devastator: Nah, there aren't even any questions to ask.
09:10:08 Devastator: it's just nothing at all.
09:10:17 Devastator: What a waste of 25 mana.
09:13:11 Devastator: There's a giant physical jungle out there, so it isn't some nonphysical presence. It might have been caused by something nonphysical, but it wasn't there yesterday and is there today, so something happened.
09:19:32 Devastator: I had a bunch of spells, so I could work this thing backwards, instead of trying to do it with one spell.
09:19:52 Devastator: so I'd go see the proximate cause and then zero it back into some kinda lore reason if it got far enough.
09:20:10 Devastator: but instead I get no information about anything, and no intermediate steps, which would have been necessary with the words I was using.
09:36:52 Devastator: other than, 'whatever made this giant jungle is big and scary! Or it was big and scary! Or it once was big and scary to something! Maybe!
09:40:36 Devastator: oh well, should just grumble less.
09:44:47 Devastator: it's not that big a deal.

21:01:19 piecewise: I mean, you're literally dealing with a god
21:03:11 piecewise: Also questions your asking to try and hunt down
RC might not be the right ones. You're making assumptions about what things would lead you to coming across in character knowledge of him, but those things might not actually be connected to him in the way you think
21:03:36 piecewise: You can actually connect to him via the foliage, but you tried the wrong method.
21:04:25 piecewise: Also
RC has no interest in fighting you so I'm being more precise instead of fudging things to let you guys meet up more easily
