Alan, gardener extraordinaire

For the sake of not having Alan get bored and wander off to start some other shenanigans I'll assume he heard about the healer from Ike. Is that alright?

If so, Alan goes and pesters the healer dude about what type of wizard Bill And Ted is.

Going back to the super-charisma concept we discussed earlier in the thread, I'm just going to go ahead and believe the monumental nature of the Emperor's fuckups is what happens when someone is so overwhelmingly magnetic that they never have to learn any social skills to stop being a lonely jackass.

In fact, there are some celebrities that seem to act in that pattern, now that I think about it...
The Emperor is Kanye West is what you're saying

"That would be appropriate to the capacity of our warbeast, I believe. May I specify some things you tell your people about me in your part of the agreement?"

Around a dozen sounds good. If he agrees to me specifying some mythological details about myself, to save time I've listed them here:
-My name: Xankarvo
-I'm a wizard of great power
-I have powers over fire, both to heal and harm, can summon it out of nowhere, can breathe it at will, etc.
-I seek the First Heaven

"Yeah, I can't punch through the door or anything like that since my bones are currently nonexistent, but I can open a hole in the door or one of the walls for you. Where d'you want it?"

Allow the guard captain to indicate where she wants the hole and presumably form up a bunch of soldiers near the place, then REND the door/wall/whatever to bits.

Alan, plant helper extraordinaire!

"Kay. How can I find out what type of magician Bill And Ted is? If he's my magic thing, I think he'd be ... what did the general say ... clutter? Yeah, clutter magic!"

Alan hums in thought.

"How do I find a magician tester ... maybe Ike would know! His ears can surely hear the resonance of a wizard's moustache on the desert winds!"

Off to find Ike again! Pester him about where I could find a magician tester to figure out what Hogwarts house magic type Bill And Ted is.
Oh, and ask Rickman too, if I happen by him.

Just found this:
Trump asks 'Hamilton' cast who 'harassed' Mike Pence to apologize.

Quote from: Donald Trump
The Theater must always be a safe and special place.The cast of Hamilton was very rude last night to a very good man, Mike Pence. Apologize!
D-did Trump just ask for a "safe space"? Is this the real life?
Funny enough they didn't even harass him, they asked people to stop booing him and basically just said 'yo dude please don't pass discriminatory laws we're kinda concerned about that right now and we hope our play inspired you to think differently pls'

"Probably, I suppose. I'll see you in a bit then."

Well, let's follow the shouting in that case. Time to go make some people regret whatever course of fate brought them in contact with me.

wasn't dies horribly(or whatever was the name) made chief by the white goblins some years ago? or was that incomplete?
Right, he was! Kind of a 'you chief now, you owe allegiance to me else I kill you so now I own your tribe' type deal.

"I'm entirely open to your suggestions on that front, seeing as I've no idea how many of them there are."

Dunno man, how many are there?

I'm going to punctuate this discussion with something completely off-key that I just realized is extremely funny to at least me.

Someone who's very good at the game they play but has never quite gotten to the pinnacle of achievement in their particular field and is widely suspected but not necessarily verified to be a bit of a dick finally comes within grasp of their ultimate goal, finally reaching that point they've strived for for so long. They're perfect at the game they play, honed their art for years, and almost reach their goal before being thwarted now and likely for the rest of their career by a thin-skinned raging asshole who breaks all the informal rules of their competition by pandering to the crowd more brazenly than has ever been done and acting like a bit of a buffoon who picked up this whole game as a hobby just a short time ago.

America, you just got Happy Gilmore'd.


Irreverence over and out!

"You misunderstand my intention, I think. I felt the power that courtier gave off; attempting to match it would be folly. But if you attempt to split his kingdom up and he takes preemptive action against you, your people may all die if he sends anyone stronger than the one you defeated. Even aside from having them as a source of faith, you seem to have an attachment to them, and so that's likely not a thing you want to happen. If I were to help a number of them find a home outside of this heaven, they're more proof against such an attempt. The only thing I'd ask in return is to be included in the songs of your children - not as anything approaching your importance to them obviously, but if you were the principal god in their myths, perhaps a minor figure of importance in their religious heirarchy? If I'm to reach the First Heaven, I'll need at least some power backing me."

Proposition tl;dr: I help some scarred tribesmen find a home outside of the heaven so they're not so vulnerable to headcaps and in return I get written into a minor role in their mythology. Win-win hopefully?

Then feed him love and other plant-essential things in non-lethal amounts! Bug various townspeople (if we got out of the well, I'm slightly unsure about that) until they point me to a gardener to pester for advice.

"Hint hint my largely nonexistent at this point ass, don't take that tone with me young lady I'll cut your hamstrings I will.
Anyway, sounds alright. Where might I find these pockets of resistance?"


State-sponsored murder sounds like a good deal, I suppose. Where do I start?
