♦ Game ends at 8pm PST on Thursday, August 18th.

♦ Contact me on Slack as Eastling or at hrairoo.

« There are two archways. »

« One is made of rough sandstone with ivy growing over it. From it hangs a curtain of rustling reeds. Push through the curtain? »

« The other is made of smooth white marble. From it hangs a heavy red velvet curtain. Push aside the curtain? »

I am the god of the festival.

All the people of Atlantis are waiting for me. They're all waiting for me to prove to them that the gods are real and more powerful than death, that all their work and worship all their lives means something.

I am the god of the festival.
