Turn 8. 13 Might+5FP
Astarte hummed. Amidst the relentless snow storm, the only sound heard was her soft voice carrying through the flat lands. No one heard it, of course, as the land was devoid of life. Nobody dared live here, not the Cimex and not the humans. There was an exception, though, the dragons. Ice Dragons. Though they didn't matter, they were everywhere, like cockroaches. She laughed at the thought and held herself. She smiled at the warmth of her own body, and as soon as she smiled, the snow storm dissipated.
The sky was a grayish blue, no doubt the result of the clouds above, which were slowly moving away. The ground was covered by several feet of blindingly white snow. The air was cold, and the occasional breeze felt like infinite daggers were cutting your skin.
It was the perfect place.
She clapped her hands and the ground shook. Then the shaking stopped, and in front of her, the ground gave way to a cavern's entrance. The mouth of the cavern was half under the flat lands and half above them. It was three meters tall and two wide.
Astarte walked down the slope that had formed and placed her hands on the stone. It was as cold as ice. She chuckled. "Yeah, this is great."
Then she stepped back and extended her arms toward the mouth, and two stone doors appeared. Upon each of them was the carving of a crescent moon with a cross in the center. The symbol on the left was a reflection of the one on the right, and the one on the right a reflection of the one on the left.
To test the doors, she cast a fireball at them. The fireball exploded upon contact, melting all snow and emitting unbearable heat in a radius of dozens of meters, yet the doors resisted. She tried the same with lighting, and the doors resisted. Then she tried the same with water, with ice, with light--The doors resisted all. All, but two of them. Pure chaos and pure order. For chaos, she had merely touched the doors, and they opened. For order, she gave life to a flower in front of the door and kept it alive for weeks, no change coming to it. The doors opened.
After disposing of the flower, the doors closed again. Astarte had no need to see what was inside the cavern, for she already knew. A temple to the most entertaining magic of all--Soul Subjugation. There was no need to explore it either, for knowing exactly how it looked inside was useless. The layout and the decorations changed incessantly, and once could hear shifting and movement of feet if one stood in front of the door for a while. Of course, when opened, nobody was there, and nothing was moving.
Astarte stepped away from the Temple's entrance, and with a clap of her hands, the snow which had been melted weeks ago, with no chance of recovering due to a lack of snow storms, was restored.
Then she nodded and in front of her, surrounding the Temple's entrance, a village appeared. It was Kuro's. Small, with few inhabitants, and most of them seemingly surprised.
Years passed and their numbers, instead of increasing, decreased. Famine was a strong problem. The cold wasn't, due to the Wi they all knew to use. Seeing they'd all die eventually if nothing changed, Astarte blessed them. Didn't take long for them to realize they could use their magic to temporarily fertilize the land and keep the climate pleasant enough inside their village and farm lands. That way, they survived.
Then a few hundred undead appeared, and Kuro and his students fought them. The normal villagers helped, too, but quite a few died. After this incident, Astarte warded the village against the Undead.
