Magic...I've always envied the powers of magic. My psionics have usually proved more than sufficient, however.
These new gods...do we know when they shall appear? Their goals? *Mary floats up a cave painting, from bottom to top, showing: A bird, a ram, and a large stone object ramming some sort of twisting spiral, then the three fighting, and shattering in the process, then there is a long amoung just showing nothing but planets, before a horrible, creeping blight spreads over a desert-styled one, then a series of Cogs fighting against a horde of purple flames, then a fountain of blood giving birth to some sort of Aztec-looking serpent, and then finally what looks like a humanoid creature inside of a womb, at the very top.*
And look, a delightful depiction of Izanami's glorious ascension! If you look closely, I think you can see me screaming in unfathomable agony! Hahahaha! That was just a little joke.
And I...couldn't possibly say what the next images depict. This is what will come to pass, perhaps?
...Who keeps making these, anyway?

No, not entirely, but our forces managed to scavenge something from the Sunless heat, which still resists, it's a cave painting of some kind.*Mary floats up a cave painting, from bottom to top, showing: A bird, a ram, and a large stone object ramming some sort of twisting spiral, then the three fighting, and shattering in the process, then there is a long amoung just showing nothing but planets, before a horrible, creeping blight spreads over a desert-styled one, then a series of Cogs fighting against a horde of purple flames, then a fountain of blood giving birth to some sort of Aztec-looking serpent, and then finally what looks like a humanoid creature inside of a womb, at the very top.*

My Thinking Brains say that we will never be able to permanently hold the Sunless Heat, saying that an ancient "Ot" guards it. It is possible this "Ot" is making the cave paintings. |

Another future predicting cave painting? The last one was quite accurate - this should be useful. Let's see if I can't flex my interpretation muscles. There: the bird, the ram and the...stone thing, I think that represents Thoth, Ahriman, and Forseti. Though...I'm not sure what they're doing.

I see. Could we not simply capture this "Ot"? Perhaps with a little ah, persuasion? Unless, of course, that "Ot" does not refer to a sentient entity.
And what will the rest of my dearest entities be doing in my absence? Do we have a plan? |

This Ot is seemingly unfathomably old... even older than you. We are hoping you can convince them to join us, and, as such, we will be sending you an dyour retainers on a quest through the Sunless Heat. Are you up to this task, Orochi?
And what will the rest of my dearest entities be doing in my absence? Do we have a plan?
Mary and I will be dealing with your former friends, while you're on your trip. We'll actually try and corrupt them, this time. Take-Mikazuchi will go with you. |

Ohohoho, I am quite anxious for it! I aim to please. *Attempted subtle look at Mary that ends up being completely unsubtle*

Ahem. Of course, of course. Perhaps...you could leave one for me? The Cordyceps colony. I would like to be able to convince her myself. I would say the same for Durga, but...she is rather dangerous. *Wistful sigh* Mmmm...I always did like that about her...before she betrayed me. Haha, no matter!
