Awkward moment when you think the game master knows your source material. O_o

Is that about me? I don't know your ''source material'' whatever that may be. The prologue is a dream sequence and meant to foreshadow your own character's nature and the ''Final Confrontation'' of the first world. This is meant to be like a driving force, to progress the thread.

However, if you copy-paste this link and watch the music video:

this is somewhat the inspiration for most prologues in Scions. It makes no sense when compared to the role-play itself, but it's meant to invoke expressionism that I then convert into the character's prologue. The main theme is ''Rebirth''.

Poland has some great extreme metal scenes out there. Polish bands like Batushka, Outre, Vesania, Mgla, and Behemoth are just superb.

Ancient Drew,
Note that I made a slight update in the thread's world. Now, all continents have twisted into each other, warping into a spiralling continental form, but it still has seas, rivers, lakes, mountains, and so on. This is to make everything easier to travel and experience different cultures and enemies. You don't have to change anything, and I like how you evidently read the thread and even did some research!

Also, did you read my post for Salvatore on page 10 of the thread? Or do we just skip it? I will wait for a reply.

O_o Writing to this song in a fight sequence might actually be fun (I'm somewhat imagining a battle of attrition or black vs grey). Knowing the lyrics might help with potential soundtrack dissonance, but hey. If it sounds cool, what does it matter!

West,
Ha! Yeah, black metal just gets your blood pumping, doesn't it?
Unfortunately, I can't read Cyrillic, so I don't know what the lyrics are. Here's a link to the song lyrics, tho, I think. It's written in Cyrillic tho.
https://www.musixmatch.com/lyrics/Batushka/Yekteniya-IV



I used Google translator for this, which may or may not be accurate, but here's what I got:

I am the lord myself,
Accept the release of your sinful deeds.
And shew her goodness,

I will forgive you all sin,
The free and involuntary,
I will sanctify your soul and body.
Amen, Holy God, have mercy on us.
I, the lord, have blessed,
[...] We are sending glory to Mena,
Now and ever,
And for ever and ever, amen!
Amen, Holy God, have mercy on us.
Bless your soul, my Lord,
I am blessed, O Lord.
Bless to your soul one Lord of your own,
And all your inner.
My name is honorable and magnificent.
Bless your soul, my Lord,
And do not forget all your recompenses.
Glory and nowadays
And verbally, and for ever
Ages, amen.
The Holy One will have mercy on you,
You Holy Immortal,
I will have mercy on you and for all eternity.



Spoken as if:

Ya sam vladyka,
Primi otpust vashikh greshnykh del.
I posetya blagostiyu Svoyeyu,

Proshchu vam vsyakoe sogreshenye,
Vol'noye zhe i nevolnoe,
Osvyashchu vashi dushi i telesa.
Amin, Bog Svyatyy, pomiluy nas.
Ya, vladyka, blagoslovil,
[…] Mene slavu vossylayem,
Nyne i prisno,
I vo veki vekov, amin!
Amin, Bog Svyatyy, pomiluy nas.
Blagoslovi dushe ́ tvoya Menya, Gospoda svoyego,
Yako blagosloven Ya, Gospodi.
Blagoslovi dushe tvoya yedina Gospoda svoyego,
I vsya vnutrennyaya tvoya.
Imya Moye prechestnoye i velikolepnoe.
Blagoslovi dushe tvoya Menya, Gospoda svoyego,
I ne zabyvay vsekh vozdayaniy tvoikh.
Slava i nyne
I pristno, i vo veki
Vekov, amin.
Vas Svyatyy pomiluet,
Vas Svyatyy bezsmertnyy,
Pomiluyu vas i vo veki vekov.



But ya, if it sounds cool, that's what matters!

I crossed-out a section that adds random characters for some reason.

Ancient,
OK! I will read your posts and continue my work.
You're welcome, let's see where we go with this!

I finished Miranda's and Poca's next phase, and started on the next phases of Analee and Salvatore, but I need more time. Things are going slow again, but I'm pressing onward.
