OOC: Personally, I don't really care about going out in a bang... I was more saying that we should set an end date so people could get their final plot ideas finished... I know I, at least, have three or four plot lines ongoing that I'd be sad to leave unfinished. Should we have a ragnarok, a Tsarok invasion, something like that? Eh, not too interested in watching our creations burn :P

Just posting this here to save future attempts at my inclusion the effort:
I wish you all luck with the next game. I'm afraid I cannot join you in it, as my schedule is rather full since most of you last heard from me. I now only manage to check the wizards board once a week at best, and usually only long enough to notice home brew has nothing in particular catching my eye this moment(which means about a minute).

With that in mind, I respectfully decline and request my removal from any and all lists of potential players.

Oki I got that...

I personally think that we should end this LoC within the next month or so. Immediatly after that perhaps we should create an OOC thread, to hammer out rule changes and such?

OOC:

Angel, why not start the talk about the next version as soon as we know about when we're stopping this one? Make a thread called "Lords of Creation 3: Definin' Da Rulz" and have a month (or whatever we choose) to hash it out before we even have the pressure to get a new game started up.

And Shadow: Any response from the staff yet?

IC:

Nixis looked at Chastelli.

"I think you do, Chastelli. Eventually, they'll either force their way out, causing you unknown amounts of pain in the process, or run out of food and die. In the end, both result in you being left alone, and then you will never find a solution. Reveal yourself, and together you might be able to find a solution. If you want a bargaining chip, take this."

Nixis pulled out the Astral Shard and tossed it to Chastelli.

"This will provide some help. It will help you to create any artifacts you might need to effect a solution. Just say my name and I will come to assist you in its creation. But for now... yes, I think you should go and talk to them."

Chukwa paused, listening to the Ae-Sylvani's response, then replied.

"I HEAR YOUR CONCERN, ELDER ONES. BUT THERE IS NO NEED TO FEAR. I WAS WITH NIXIS WHEN HE CREATED THE YOGLOIDS, AND MODELED THE TREES ON THEIR BACKS ON THE SAME PATTERN. THEY DO NOT FEED ON THE AETHER ITSELF, BUT ON THE RAPIDLY REPRODUCING FUNGUS CREATED IN THE FIRST DAYS BY TSAROKGA-NOGGOTH, THEN CALLED THE UNKNOWN. UNLESS THE POPULATION GREW TO A HUGE LEVEL, THEY COULD NOT DEPLETE THE AETHER IF THEY TRIED.

BUT I OFFER YOU A COMPROMISE. ALLOW THESE POOR REFUGEES TO LIVE HERE IN THE BOUNDLESS AETHER WITH YOU, LET THEM LIVE ON A FEW OF THE YOGLOIDS. I SHALL INSTRUCT THEM TO PREVENT UNNECCESSARY DUPLICATION BY MANAGING THE YOGLOID'S ABILITY TO FEED. IN THE MEANTIME, I PROPOSE THAT YOU SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO DESTROY ANY NON-INHABITED YOGLOID. SURELY A FEW MEAGER COLONIES IS NOT NEARLY SO GREAT A THREAT AS THE DRAHKORN, OR THE TSAROK, WHO TEEM IN VAST NUMBERS IN THE AETHER."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Children of the Aether continued to thrive, bolstered by their new lands and opportunities. And in isolated areas on the various Yogloids, small colonies of creatures appeared called Xarns. Looking like small squids, they had the unique ability to breathe in either air or aether and breathe out the opposite gas. Regarded as dangerous pests by the Children, their numbers never grew beyond a handful on any given amoeba, although by the same token, they never were able to be wiped out.

The Circle, while genuinely working with the Alexandrian leadership to track down the creators of Angel's Draught, also used the time to learn more about the inner workings of the council of the Sundered Crown, and grew stronger.
