Ahead lies the great light that...

"...Feel what?" Moore asks. "I don't feel an--..."

...Oh!

Oh!!

Right, the whole... reason...

He takes in a breath.

Cresiel seemed to just 'be' more when he used that seed, so...

"You're to use the divine seed immediately," Xandra says, "To further enhance your stability."

Moore gains divine rank 0. Normally you get that roll with a minimum result of 0. If you get a 4 you start with DvR1 instead. However, due to the situation and its complications, you lost that chance and just get DvR0.

I suggest being very, very, very grateful you're here at all, rather than focus on the lost chance. Any result of odds was instant oblivion, no coming back from that, and an even below 70 was an instant bad end via becoming a horror as well. Any failure on that second batch (except the Con roll, which while related wasn't tied to those) was instant oblivion, no table needed.

[Nephrite]

"Come, I'll not risk this chance that hope has given me." Moore says.

You know my feeling on this exactly, I hope.

Anyway, yes, they will go get Io's seed.

[Anastasia]

"Good." Xandra rises and goes to your desk, opens it and takes out the seed.

"It's been here, carefully hidden because this may not wait if things went worse," Xandra gently carries to the seed to you, "Use it."

[Nephrite]

"...How long was I out for?" Moore asks as he holds his hand out to the seed.

The hope of so many, the hope of Creation.

It's on his shoulders now.

[Anastasia]

"A day," Xandra answers, as the seed awaits you.

[Nephrite]

Moore reaches out to touch it!

[Anastasia]

You feel it flow into you - and a good part of it deeper into you. Part of it diverted, filling you deeply. A feeling of flowing to within you, as if stabilizing something and yourself.

Before you the seed is gone, used up to the last.

You gain divine rank 1. However, your ordeal is not without consequences. You needed further energy from the seed, and in turn your own apotheosis was weakened as energies were diverted to fill the damage you did to yourself. Instead of the normal 3 domains plus any relevant alignment domains, you begin with one domain and any relevant alignment domains.

So you'll get the Good domain for free since you're NG, and you have one other domain to choose.

We'll go ahead and focus OOC on the mechanical side of this for now, I'll talk to you in PM to guide you through the process since there's a lot of mechanical stuff.

[Nephrite]

So noted.

[Anastasia]

Okay Moore, hows the mechanics of this coming along for you?

[Nephrite]

You still need to adjudicate a few things for feats and SDAs, but for the most part the mechanics and the sheet are done.

[Anastasia]

Post anything I need to adjudicate in nagging.

[Nephrite]

So, just as a thing, I can't seem to actually post my update in my topic, I get a database error every time I try. I am good to go either way.

Actually, it seems to be a new limitation on the forum or something, I can't paste my block anywhere since it seems to be limiting the amount of text I can post, or something like that.

[Anastasia]

Could you send me a screenshot of the error real quick?

[Nephrite]

Done.
