*Synopsis*
They must recruit the help of outlanders to destroy the fiendish Vlagh
and prevent its attempt at world conquest. The Vlagh is a creature
whose more remarkable power is the ability to consciously direct the
evolution of its minions, adapting them to the situation as required
(the evolution is not instantaneous, but it takes months or even just
days, as it is seen in the second book, The Treasured One). Most of
Vlagh's creations are vaguely insect-like, venomous and violent,
although some creatures have been bred human-like enough to pass
as humans (and are used as spies). The creatures also share an
Overmind, through which each of them knows and sees what the
others do. Despite these major advantages, the Vlagh and the
creatures of the Vlagh are not intelligent. They can't even understand
the meaning of death which causes many defeats early on but as they
fight more they begin to avoid simple traps like arrows and poisoned
spikes that the protagonists use. As the Vlagh realizes this, the heroes
have already designed new traps and strategies to confuse their
enemy. However, the Elder Gods are not permitted to use their powers
to kill, but the young Dreamers, infant forms of the Younger Gods: can use the powers of their dreams to foresee visions of the future as a warning to an attack and cause great natural disasters capable of mass destruction and killing.
*End*
Arisseia had begun to grow weary of the slow rate of her dominion
like the rest of the gods had. Yet she could feel an oppressing urge
to do something about the prophecy. The Dreamers had not appeared
yet The-Thing-Called-Vlagh was building his masses unopposed. She
knew that she had to do something. She made her way to where her
counterpart slept and awoken her earlier, erasing her memory so that
they would not know they were gods but just children. She made her
way to every other gods counterparts, doing the same thing and when
she got to the Fire Gods domain she decided to rest a minute in the
sunlight.
Now light gives the gods energy, its their sustenance. They do not
need to eat nor sleep but use the light instead. As she walked the land
to where the counterpart slept she thought about the consequences
of this. It could change a lot of things but if she had not done it the
world could already be lost to The-Thing-Called-Vlagh. She made it to
the volcano where it slept and awoken him, erasing his memory just
as she had done to the others. She grabbed the child and made her
way to the Fire Gods home.
Upon reaching the entrance she called out to him.OOC: Based on the book called The Dreamers... Descriptive and Literate
