Meeting Deities and making deals.

With you UrEmber spent and Dragonite shell formed you were surprised that time didn’t speed up. Clearly you were not done with the setup. Then you felt them, Gods. As you pass over the continents you encounter the local deities.

Over the eastern continent you are met by the local gods you take a pass on the trickster there is a litteny of stories on trickster getting people in trouble. The crafter was a maybe but let’s see what the king has to say. “Greetings great dragon, I can feel the touch of divinity upon you already. I have a proposal for you, while I do not have any burning need of a service at the moment I foresee that you may be in a position to do me a favor in the future. I will make a deal, a gift now and a favor owed, is this agreeable?” Well now this could be good a powerful asset from a god could speed up your progress in this world. “What do you offer Spirit King?” He holds up his hand and three images appear before you. You quickly scan your options. While the magic and sword would be useful you instantly knew which you would choose. You point to your selection. A chuckle escapes the divine monarch. “I hope you and she can find harmony, or at least cooperation, together. While I had to punish her choices and I had to make a show of punishing her rudeness I sensed a deep loneliness and need within her soul I hope you can fill that void.”

You shake on the deal and declare you are moving on as you wish to maintain much of your independence and do not wish to bind yourself too tightly to one god. Your next encounter is over the southern jungles. Once again you are greeted by the king of a pantheon though a fallen one this time. “Greetings Dragon, I am Memnoph god of Magic and Civilization. I wish to make a pact with you. I need to return to the world to combat the forces that seek to destroy all that has been built. To do so I would ask for your worship. Only simple rights nothing onerous once or twice a day. And I have much to offer in exchange for this.” Again, three options are presented to you. This choice is even harder as the item and magic would be very useful and potential even if the spell level boost would not be as useful with your preloaded spells. However, you already knew that your harem would be the core of all that was to come so again you chose to add another companion. “A wise and far-sighted choice she will be a great asset to you.” While you wanted to take over the southern islands any way, you didn’t feel you should close up any more of your divine options just yet with a nod of respect you conclude your dealings with this god

Over Andor you were presented with a choice between two goddess. However, one all but fleas from your presence and the magic you radiated. The second bowed before you. “Greetings and thanks Great dragon I find myself wishing I could simply gift you everything I could offer. However, the rules that govern our encounter demand that this be a trade. I will ask that you do what I believe is already in your nature considering the wishes you granted to those who followed me. Please help my children wash away the stain of actions taken in the name of survival and restore the noble and goodly image they once held.” You can easily agree to that especially considering you intend to gather as many elves under your banner, and yourself, as you can. “Then I thank you. I can see your choices so far and I think I know your selection but please make your choice. Again, three options. The magic is meh you are a dragon not a bard, the item though. The ability to empower your harem, tempting. However, an item can be made again at need, the first and greatest Elf literally one of a kind. You make your selection and the goddess smiles, yes she had properly guessed your choice.

As you were about to move on a presence interrupts you. “Greetings Great Dragon. I am Malgroth the ruler of Infernus and I offer you welcome gifts of friendship with only the most token requests in return.” Oh great, a deamon king wanting to make deals. Well let’s see where this goes. “Sadly, I am breaking several rules with this so I can only offer one gift. I ask only that you find several deamons who have flaunted my rules most grievously. They have hidden on your new home. I ask that you kill or if possible, banish them to me. What say you?” Well, you would have been likely to destroy the deamons anyway so why not. As you nod three images appear before you. You honestly couldn’t describe either of the other two as your eyes are focused on the embodiment of carnal excess. “Ah, yes, Sephillia. She is the arch deamon of lust. While she has never betrayed me I am revolted by how she allows her desire to rule her actions. Indeed, she now wishes to be bound in servitude to you. Yes, by her own choice and indeed demand if you choose her she will be bound in the most abject servitude to you.” Ya not passing that up. If nothing else she will be a handy outlet for you Horny drawback. “Very well I will take her as payment for hunting down these problem deamons of yours.”

As you are about to reach your final destination one last set of gods greet you Ho Ho well met great dragon. I am Ordin god of war and winter and I offer you a pact.” You see an old man yet still tall and broad well muscled and garbed for battle. “What do you ask and what do you offer?” You ask in a polite but not subservient tone. “Ha, direct, I like that, we’ll for my first request I want you to take no action that would delay the arrival of my ancient foe for I have been kept waiting long enough.” Well that shouldn’t be to troublesome and he hadn’t said anything about preparing for after things kicked of. “To this I can agree.” Agin in a firm but not disrespectful tone. “Good! Now for what you will have from me” Three images appear between you a warrior woman with wings, a helm for a dragon made of clearly enchanted Dragonite, and an image of you but empowered with divine strength. While the artifact and empowerment look useful you plan on your strength being focused on those around you. You point to the woman. “Ah, you have a decerning eye Great Dragon. You would choose Elyria my bringer of ****. She is my bloody reaper mightiest of my Valkyrie though in recent decades she has spoken of growing tired. When I asked what she desired she spoke that she wished to offer her vow to the coming Great dragon should he prove both interested and worthy. Should you accept her oath she will serve you with the same loyalty and devotion she showed me.” “Then I will accept her oath and service as one of my companions and value her as one of the finest jewels in my hoard.” “Well spoken! Now if you wish for a second boon I would request that you speak to my wife for me. She holds a magical stone from me and I have need of it. You may need to use **** as she proven quite unreasonable about handling it over.” Alarms scream in your head getting involved between a husband and wife is a bad idea and when they are gods it never ends well for the third party. “ Though I do desire another boon I must confess that I am unwilling to declare a goddess my opponent at this time.” A disappointed sigh hits like a wind from a glacier. “Not as brave as I had hoped” no just not stupid. “Very well, be on your way then Great dragon and maybe we will fight side by side in the wars to come.” Not likely.

You feel you have maxed out the number of pacts you can make even with your cheat items helping you. Now it’s time for the world to meet its new Dragon and one who will definitely go down in history, one way or another.
