MP 0 - FP 2 [/color] [/center] With the heavy weight of an empty sphere and the need to create seasons off her mind and with the newfound affection at the arms of Seihdhara, Urhu was in a more peaceful moment than usual, for once doing justice to her methods and truly being only in the joy of the present than in the worries of the future. The other goddess which inhabited Nyeothay tag was still resting, and she looked like she was lost in a heavy sleep, it felt rude to awake her, so the goddess moved away, to the deck of her ship, ready to start her day. As it was usual, she rose up the ship into the air until she had a great overlook of Galbar and its many lands... Which truly surprised her in how much new ground had been created, the once barren land now being truly filled with proper details, she wondered how she missed that, it was likely the distraction from overworking, alcohol and intimacy. Nevertheless, now she knew about those lands and the allure of novelty had taken over her mind. Contrast was a natural tool to bring attention to something, so the first land that seized her interest was the green, delicate island chain to the side of a great barren land. She did not know, but this was a land named Istais. She dove back to the surface of Galbar, landing the ship onto the water and approaching the shores of the islands. She peeked into the room to see if Seihdhara had woken up, but it seemed like the goddess either was still making up for all the fatigue caused about multiple near final death experiences, had drunk too much last night, or was in the webs of that sneaky dream god, perhaps all of those at ther same time. The thought made Urhu remember she needed to address that dream question sooner or later, she had not liked Seihdhara's descriptions. But that was for later, for now, the goddess jumped out of the ship and braved into the land, reaching down to grab some soil so she could analyze it and figure out who made this bit of Galbar. Before she could, she noticed what looked like a neon porcupine idly walking about further inland, the goddess looking at the creature and immediately thinking "Yep, Asceal." It was nice to see the goddess of light again, that explosion really made Urhu unsure if she was still kicking or if she had kicked the bucket. This land was obviously made with far different materials and purposes than the crystal fortress up in the sky, yet, the design motifs were easy to see on that contrasting mix of delicate and strong that characterized the island. Going up one of the mountain paths, following a river stretch, the wanderer's eyes shone when she noticed steam raising upstream, soon going near the vicinity of a nice looking hot spring. She dipped her hands in the water to see if it was nice, getting a very positive result, and quickly entered it, leaving her clothes on a rock nearby. Hot water was always nice, though a fabricated hot bath just could not beat the natural flow of a hot spring, in fact, sometimes Urhu wondered if she could somehow make a genuine one within Nyeothay Tag, it wasn't impossible but would take some work. Despite being a divine being who likely did not suffer from muscle stiffness, the goddess could feel the tension leaving her tissues and her mind becoming clear. The scenery was quite pleasant as well, it was ironic considering the goddesses' past, but Istais with its elegant features interacted significantly with Urhu's Seasons, it was summer, so the forest of tall and thin trees had a strong living green to them dotted by flowers, which in summer were rarer but displayed striking warm colors in comparison to the softness of spring. Birds chirped, cicadas and crickets buzzed... And it seemed Asceal and Phystine (The wanderer had already discerned her handwork on the island as well) had beaten Parvus in the race to make a light emitting bug, at least in Urhu's perspective. As departures are inevitable, the time for Urhu to leave the peacefulness of the hot spring came, any more and she could be bored of such a place and she didn't think it deserved those thoughts. Hours had passed so it was now night but in this land of light the colors refused to succumb to the dull darkness, the flowers she had seen before defiantly keeping their vivid colors and even softly lighting up the forest path in torch-like tones of orange and yellow. There was some potential for landmarking in that, she thought, in fact, upon further analysis, it seemed it was her aura of passages and landmarks that created the long stretch that only had similar flower tones, as the flora in other areas seemed to be more diverse. When she started to get clothed again, the goddess could not help but to feel a bit bothered by how plain and boring it currently was, the novelty wore out as she started to want something more than leaves and hides for apparel. She remembered the continent to the East, the one where she had met Shengshi, had great biodiversity, many which would certainly be useful for costume making. Returning to the boat, checking on the still sleeping Seihdhara, the goddess set sail through the air towards the east, however, since she was already over it, she decided to stop at the continent that was both the largest and the most barren of them all. She extended her hand taking a sample of the dirt and observed it. Mineral-rich, but initially sterile, Ohannakeloi seemed likely. Metals would not be bad, she thought, starting to sniff around the endless plains of the large continent searching for a mineral-rich region. While traveling, she could not stop but to be bothered at how little features there were on the gargantuan stretch between the coast and the towering mountains, it would be too easy to get lost, so when she found an exceptional amount of resources, instead of using her powers to dig or transport, she stomped on the ground and used her powers to create great towers of stone. It still was barely enough to make it easy to traverse the land, but it was something. [img]https://i.imgur.com/0ty6Xcrl.jpg[/img] The heat and sand made the lonely rock towers look even more out of place, their inexplicable sight looming in the horizon like a mirage, as such, they were the Phantom Towers. With many of the mineral nodes on the surface now, Urhu rose her hand and pulled ores straight from the rock, placing it on Nyeothay Tag's storage room. With a job well done, she left eastward, even on her ship and with all her skill, it still took some time for her to fully navigate across the world, finally seeing green again as she arrived on the lands east of the Nanhe River. She would spend some significant time picking different types of fibers until she finally found the plant that provided sort of textile she wanted... yet, when she made her dress, she could not help but feel it was dull. While she pondered over this issue, she saw a beast walking calmly past her, it was a boar, an interesting creature... which seemed both delicious but also able to provide decent hides for her plans. Since she was in a rush, she simply launched a rock at divine induced speeds on the creature's head, before seizing the body. Back on the ship, she started to separate the many bounties of the hunt, when she noticed the creature's mouth was stained in blue from berries it ate. Of course, she could dye her clothes, but nothing she had seen in that continent felt like the colors she wanted, so she once again started to travel until she found herself in Istais again. This was a land of strong colors, so it made sense she would find her dyes here. She arrived as the sun was setting, the green of summer meeting the orange of the dusk, it was a beautiful sight, and Urhu immediately knew how she would dye her clothes. That was not her only inspiration, however, as near where she had anchored Nyeothay Tag, she noticed a natural wonder as some rocks perfectly captured the setting forge between them. It was beautiful... but it could be a bit better. While she waited for the dye to stick to her clothes, she started moving around the rocks into a crown shape, going as far as pulling a spring up from the ground so the rocks would be clad in steam. Despite being a small formation, smaller than some cliffs on that eastern coast of Istais, it was a beautiful spot normally, but at the sunsets, it would hit its full glory as the Sun's Gate. [img]https://i.imgur.com/gFqWVPal.jpg[/img] The wanderer would then move to work on the metals, a god could create heat and purify, so even without a forge she was able to extract the bright yellow metal out of its rocky shell and mold it to fit her outfit. She would do similar processes to the hides she had taken, before binding it all together, folding even the gold as if it was cloth until she reached what in her view was an outfit much closer to what she expected a goddess to wear. The final act was a medallion, inspired by Shengshi's own use of a symbol to represent his presence, the goddess had been thinking about something to use on her own works.
