[b]THE FIRST FATHER AND [color=crimson]AMELIA[/color][/b]
[indent]The First Father, [b][color=blue]ALNAEUS[/color][/b], remained short on words. This circumstance remained little different. He listened, as he always did, to his child--the fiery and passionate [b][color=crimson]AMELIA[/color][/b]. Finally, he spoke, a message that echoed across infinitum and into the very brain of his every child and creation: "[i]So obsessed with war, are you?[/i]"

He answered neither definitively nor negatively, but instead seemed to breathe into the world--as if to breathe for a third time, then paused. The World held it's own breath in anticipation.[/indent]

[b]CREATION CONTINUES[/b]
[indent]Elsewhere, the world continued to be the play dough of the Gods. The eternally melancholy [b][color=orange]IRA[/color][/b] cast her hand to an archipelago and from whence came thunderous rain clouds that seemed never to thin. From the rain, the river basins overflowed, bacteria and rot festered and the entirety of the once verdant lands settled into a quagmire of muck and swampy marshlands.  To the North, the god [b][color=gray]NUDRISS[/color][/b] thunderclapped and from it arose a mountain chain to cut the world in half--only in a single, dangerous and sloping mountain pass could one ever hope to cross.

With another magnificent clap west of the mountains, [b][color=gray]NUDRISS[/color][/b] summoned into existence a breakbasket of fertile grasslands ripe for life. These grasslands stretched from the ocean in the North to the swamps in the south and nestled greatly in the shadow of the mountains.

[b][u]THE STRUGGLE OVER WISDOM[/u][/b]
[indent]Similarly, [b][color=crimson]AMELIA[/color][/b] felt a great pull. Another of the God's--though for whom she could not be certain--resisted her tug on the embodiment of [b]Wisdom[/b]. Instead, what once felt whole in her grasp began to turn to sand. If she did not pull back, it would be lost to the challenger.
- [[b][color=crimson]AMELIA[/color][/b] may [b]Bid[/b] a new amount by sending that amount to the GM then posting IC. If it is higher than the [b]Challenger's[/b] Bid, it will go back to the [b]Challenger[/b] to bid again, if it is not--the [b]Domain of Wisdom[/b] will be lost to that [b]Challenger[/b]. Cannot spend more than the [b]Power Available[/b] after actions.][/indent]
