Prayer Box

[fromthefog]

This is a place to send your prayers to the Fog god. She may not always respond, or she may respond in ways you don’t expect, but she is always listening.

Speak, she hears you.

OOC note: As of April 2020, threads with the gods will be capped at three NPC replies! Please keep this in mind when writing god prayers to make sure you get everything you need out of the thread. It’s also possible to handwave prayers by titling your comment HANDWAVED PRAYER. Handwaved prayers lack our usual flourish, but you can expect a faster response!

As of February 2024, god prayers will be handwaved only. Please only submit a prayer if you have a question for either god which needs answering in order to progress your character's arc within Ryslig. If this is something you need to tier up within the god boon system, or just to set up a player plot in general, please don't hesitate to submit a prayer about it! You may shorten it down to an OOC summary of what your character is asking. This will allow any of our helper mods to reply much faster, without having to dig into the specifics of either god's personality/writing quirks. Should this limitation be lifted again in the future, this note will be removed.

[There's a stamp inside the envelope this time, so the Fog God doesn't have to worry about her next letter being returned to sender. Like before it's handwritten.]

Sorry it took me a couple days to get back to you, but when I found your letter I'd just had a really emotional night and my friend Ingway said I should sleep on things before I made any big decisions and I thought that writing back to you about anything probably counted.

He's a really good person to have as a friend, you know. We'd only talked a few times over the network but when I told him I'd killed a human person human and I was freaking out because I'd never done that before he came right over and helped me clean up and then he bundled up the meat for me to take home, because there was more than I could eat at once.

I finished it off today while my roommate was out. I didn't even cook it because even tho our landlady doesn't mind that we're monsters, cooking humans in the kitchen would probably be pushing it too far. I guess I have to figure out what to do with the rags and bones and hair. They're shoved under my bed right now in a bundle.

I don't know why I'm telling you this stuff except-- I don't know, it itches at me and I feel like I have to tell someone and as much as I like Susan she's been through so much crap, more than I'll ever probably know, so I want to spare her a little, at least until she starts getting hungry, which I don't think she has yet. Unless she's hiding it from me as much as I am from her. And I think I probably bug Ingway about this stuff too much already.

Ingway says that you could give me the power to protect people.

I do want to protect people, I want to protect my friends and all the other monsters here. They're all really good people. Well, maybe not that stupid fish 4th god guy that I kicked in the balls after he tackled me for no good reason, but most of them are good people.

But I don't want to stop being 'me.' I don't want to lose important parts of 'myself.'

And I know that when mortals tangle with gods things can get weird and ugly.

I'm glad you think I'm worth something, tho. It means a lot to me that you think I'm worth it.


Chie

P.S. Haha bear power.
