If you are a Final Fantasy fan (FFX/ FFX-2 to be exact and you don't have to be in knowledge of it), this would make for sense, but I'm adding a twist, too. This may contain possible spoilers for those playing FFX, but not much.

HOW THIS RELIGION DEVELOPS IS ENTIRELY UP TO THE PEOPLE THAT FOLLOW THE FAITH (with the exception of the tech differences)!

Changes via Techs

Cermonial Burial (start)- We worship those who have gone onto the Farplane. Yevon is considered one on the Farplane.

Polytheism- We worship the Aeons (don't worry I will give you their names later)

Monotheism- We worship Yevon and highly revere the Aeons and form a connection between them. The believers now believe Yevon has an enemy named Sin.

Definitions

Farplane - It's basically the place people go to after death ;)

Aeons - Summoned creature in Final Fantasy. They won't be summoned here, as I'm going to try to keep it somewhat realistic. They will only be worshiped and revered.

Yevon - A supposed 'God' (not really one though) in Final Fantasy X.

Praetor - The head of the Order of Yevon. (S)he is responsible for all the temples and decisions of the Order of Yevon and may remove/demote (high) priests from 'office' but not from the religion with permission from the high priests via a vote. Every month a praetor is elected to office via a vote by all the believers. Only a high priest may be elected to this office, and a praetor who loses a re-election or chooses not to run for praetor becomes a high priest. Elections take place once there is a praetor and a high priest. Tied votes result in the praetor from the last term making the decision. The Praetor's vote counts as 2 votes, during elections.

High Priests - The second highest position in the Order of Yevon. They are responsible for making decisions on the stances the Order of Yevon may take and making sure their own Temple(s) are in order. They may also elect/ remove/ demote (to high priest) a praetor from office via a vote as well as high priests with permission from the praetor. For elections, their votes counts as 2 votes each.

Priests - The basic clergy of the Order of Yevon. They are responsible for guiding the people and keeping their own temple in order. Priests help decide in the electon of a praetor. A priest's vote counts as 1, during elections.

Aeons
Bahamut- Dark Energy Dragon Aeon
Valefor- Flying Energy Aeon
Ixion- Lightning Unicorn Aeon
Ifrit- Fire Aeon
Shiva- Ice Aeon
Yojimbo- Mercenary Aeon
Anima- Suffering Aeon
Magus Sisters- Aeon Trio

Since, HG and Anarchy joined, CivGeneral is now a priest of Yevon! Congrats CivGeneral!

Ill join this religon :D

First post edited, so more people can become priests.

Welcome, Black Hole!

I'll join, plus I've played the majority of the Final Fantasy's, (including both X and X-2).

Thanks for joining Strider.

BTW, FF avatars are of course encouraged but not needed. ;)

You might be saying the same thing about Ashe when FFXII comes out ;). All of the FFX characters were good. They all had good personalities and were voiced pretty good.

Strider told me to join, I said no thanks, he said I should, I still said no thanks, he told me to join, and I thought oh well, what can be so bad in it and so I join.


Even though I don't even know what happens in the FF series or anything. :rolleyes: :p ;)

Okay, you are in.

You don't need FF knowledge. It might just help a little.

might as well join up.
anyone have a problem with (f)animutation?

Any and all recommendations are welcome.

@All: Here's what I am thinking for code proposals.

Term X- Suggested Code Y

<stated>

High Priests, please vote Yes or No within Z hours.

If passed it becomes Code X-Y? I need to work on it, but I'm sure someone here would be better at it (not hiniting or anything :mischief: ).

I'll join. I don't know much about FFX series, but I do know what you mean by Aeons, since I have played past FF games, including FFVII.

Welcome to the Order of Yevon.

CivGeneral has been promoted to High Priest.

Anarchy has been promoted to Priest.


I've decided to change around election. Everyone can vote, but your say still depends on status.

Praetor/ High Priest Vote: 4 points (2 people currently)
Priest Vote: 2 points (2 people currently)
Follower Vote: 1 point (5 people currently)

That's 17 points to be divided, if an election were to happen now. This way people could feel more involved.

Of course, this will only pass if High Priest CivGeneral approves of it.

What are we actually gonna do? And what elections are you talking about?

What are we actually gonna do? And what elections are you talking about?

1. We are a religion. We worship according to tech (see first post). This is an rpg thread. We spread the word of our religion, and make everyone else swallow it hole in efforts to make it the main religion of our nation. ;) We will probably have a heavy influence in the rpg (even though we don't have a seperate forum). The way the Order acts is dependent on what the believers want it to do. The Order can call for a parade (and other events), advise samurai, and to get in touch with our culture.

2. Every month a praetor is elected to office via a vote from the high
priests. Only a high priest may be elected to this office, and a praetor who
loses a re-election or chooses not to run for praetor becomes a high priest.
Elections take place once there is a praetor and two high priests. Tied votes
result in the praetor from the last term making the decision.


With the changes, everyone will vote.

I guess I'll join.

Welcome Gulliver!

Congrats to Black Hole for becoming a priest!

The first elections here will be held at the end of this month as it was CivGeneral's decision in chat.

I believe nominations and elections should be held at the same time as the election process of term 2 in the government.

Anyone have an idea on how we could count the votes without filling this thread with votes?

Oh Yeh! Now I can convert people to our religon :D

we can jus open a poll in the polls forum that is public(so only our members can vote)

You could either do what Black Hole suggested, or just have all of the members PM you there votes and tally them up.

If allowed, I would go with blackhole's suggestion.

If it were to be pmed, it should be done by a 3rd party.

I would like to the propose a law to the high priests (all one of them).

I wish to issue the praetor the right to relocate priests and high priests throughout the nation, so Temple locations will always have at least a (high) priest in them.

Further more, I would ask to have a Temple (not a civ Temple but a Yevon specific one) built in the new city, Furuyama.

so am i being MR third party or not?

just you know so i got a heads up or whatever?

Yes, you are doing it. During the election cycle, people will run for praetor, during the elections for the Term 2 gov (It happens at the same time), so you need not do anything untiil wat later this month.

ah okthen, PM me a few days before i have to do it though.

-delete me-

To Highpriests (that's you CG): I would like to remove Anarchy as a priest of Yevon, which would promote Strider. Please consider doing so. if implemented anarchy will be the last follower on the list.

He said he wouldn't have much time, so I felt it would only be fair to give it to Strider.

can i have some fancy name as vote collector guy? other than 'vote collector guy'

How about election officer? :p

CG, you need to respond to my previous post...

Zarn, this is a question from an outsider perspective: should some decide to continue worshipping the aeons after the onset of monotheism, are they still part of the religion?

I liken this to a real world example of jews and christians, only the "jewish people" in this situation happen to be polytheistic.

JEWS polytheistic? How come? :hmm:

Aeons will either be seen almost like saints or parts of Yevon. I'm probably will go with the later, so there would be much respect towards the aeons, still.

I agree on the removal of Anarchy from his post. I would like to see Strider promoted to the possition :D.

I'll resign if you dump anarchy! :gripe:














:joke: ;)

im getting closer to being a high priest :D

Anarchy has been demoted.

Strider has been promoted. :yeah:

People: Please state your opinion on a possible temple in Immo.

IMHO we should have a temple in IMMO.

We could also set up a new travel RP after you have gotten to Furuyama. ;)

could we maybe have elections for Yevon before elections for the actual demogame? that would mean that some people wouldnt get confused etc. and it would also mean that some people may have less to do while this is occuring.

yes we should have a temple in Immo, as long as we have a priest for each temple(or high priest), we should spread as far as possible

Okay, so only the one High Priest (CG) needs to approve for the Temple in Immo.

I need EVERYONE's (follower, priest, whatever) opinion on this. This is probably the most important piece of legislation. I been thinking, and I think I should just drop follower status with High Priest approval. Some of these people will end up being followers forever, because no one will join. Instead I believe these followers should be priests, and the priests are promoted once we aquire a new temple site up to the number of aeons in FFX (eight, inlcuding the Magus Sisters as one). So it will be eight Temples max.

Voting power will also change as priest would be one vote and High priest would be two. This would make elections more interesting.

Sure, fine wiht me :)

Sounds good. :)

Okay, so CivGeneral just needs to aprrove. I think i have the support I need to do this. Oh, and HighGeneral must post to be a high priest, he hasn't been active at all, otherwise, it goes to Black_Hole.

oooo I might become a high priest, yipee! :D

So is everyone else becoming a priest then?

And how do we get the high priests, then? What's excactly gonna change and how? :hmm:

Aproveal for the temple in Immo :hammer: :D

BTW what about my suggestion, could we start elections for your praetor thingy early?

when will elections start most honorable praetor zarn?

*shouts* Zaaa - arn?


Praetor Zarn? Hello? Are you here?

*shouts* Zaaa - arn?


Praetor Zarn? Hello? Are you here?

Of course, look at the first post. Though I won't be staying in the RPG long, only long enough for the elections of the next praetor possibly between Black_Hole and CG.

Edit: I'm leaving because this religion is going to crash and burn with me in charge. I won't be the praetor of a group where followers go to other religious places, so to avoid tension with the Yevon people that do so, I'm leaving.

Huh? What other religious places? The Temple of Furuyama is more like a spa... :hmm:

NOOOOOOOO Dont leave Zarn!, I dont really want to be the praetor and I would support you :cry:

WTF, so is there an election now, is this group ended?

Okay, I'll stay, but I don't want to run for praetor. I don't want to be in charge all the time. That is why there will be elections (at least I wanted them). Maybe there should be a 2 term in a row limit, then at least one term that must be served as not the praetor. Since Black Hole, won't run, I will have to run.

BTW, when a new praetor comes into office, it isn't considered Democratic in the storyline. I'll see how I can implement this aspect.

@BCLG: PM CG, and see if he is willing to run (hopefully he is willing). If he accepts, then post here asking for votes. The number of days they get to vote is up to you but I suggest at least 72 hours.

if CG isnt willing to run i will, but next term i do plan to run, so you wont be so lucky zarn :D

Well, I would like to run for the possition of praetor :)

okay so help from zarn here.

The elections have begun. Pick one of these two potentials and pm me your choice.

Praetor Zarn
High Priest CivGeneral

Priest votes count as one, and highpriest/ praetor votes count as two. Please specify your occupation in Yevon or the vote will be voided.

You have 72 hours to do this.


also could you tell me whether your a high priest or whatever. :D

72 hours has passed...

ah right have they, well ive only recieved 4 votes,

ah right have they, well ive only recieved 4 votes,

Just post the number of voted for each, unless you want me to pm people and give another 24 hours.

My guess is that CivGeneral won.

ok, well i was just going to wait until someone else voted nvm i'll post the result anyways.

4-3 to CG i dont know if you want to carry on but thats it so far

ok, well i was just going to wait until someone else voted nvm i'll post the result anyways.

Oops, somehow I missed the vote. :rolleyes:

Long live the new Praetor...!

[New Character as the former Praetor misteriouslty disapears (and is no longer a player character)]

I am Jekon, and I am the brother of Praetor Zarn and son of Praetor Ximar II. I am the new high priest of Yevon. I have been recently promoted for a new Temple, but since The Temple of Valefore needs a new high priest, I will attend that one, instead. Where is this new praetor? Surely he has something to say about what he plans to accomplish. What of these Aeons I heard so much about? Are they divine creatures? What of Yevon, one of our ancestors? Is Yevon divine? Shouldn't we promote another priest to oversee the building of and take care of the Temple of Ifrit? Where is the Praetor? He should be guiding us.

Welcome Jekon to the Order of Yevon. Jekon, which temple would you wish to take care of. Ill also search for another High priest to operate the other temple.

OOC: CG, I (or Jekon) becomes the high priest of the Temple of Valefor, as you are now the Praetor of Bahumaut. Also, Strider gets to be the next High Priest, if he shows activity. Just to help you out. If you want more temples, its your business to propose it. Just make sure not every city has a temple and not everyone is a high priest (no fun in that).

If you need me to upgrade the first post, let me know in this thread, so it is noted in public.

i would request a temple in zojoji, and i will move there(as that is where i am currently living and do not like long transits to work)

That's not my decision, but the Praetor's. I would vote yes to adding a Temple in Epolenep only at this time. I think that would be a great location for Ifrit (the fire aeon for those who do not know).

Hiya Jekon, brother of Zarn! You look quite like your brother... are you twins?

I'd like to join too.

You guys are added to the list (the 1st post is still mine to update CG, and if you want changes, let me know).

I APPROVE of a Temple in Epolenep.

Edit: Since it was never stated how much perecetnage of high prieets must approve, I would go with simple majority (51+%) of high priests.

It means the other high priest must approve. I'm only 50% of the high priests. Obviously, once the other high priests approves the Temple is built and the next person becomes a high priest (you), as we already know the praetor approves.

Edit: nevermind, Black Hole approves.

I would like to discuss new legislation. In order to do this, we must have a discussion. I believe we should orgainze the 'law' in the Order of Yevon, so when legislation is passed, we know where to put it. It would also make the 'law' more clear than a bundle of definations and such.

I would also like to discuss another piece of legislation. I wish to make voting for each member public. We should either vote directly in this thread (something I dreaded before), have priests pm the high priests of their temple, or have everyone pm one person (praetor, BCLG, mod, etc...).

I agree with what you said.

;)

*High Priest Jekon is seen standing at the top od the steps leading to the Temple of Valefor.*

Yevon has grown in size and we have many following Yevon with all their hearts. Though I can't help but wonder what is being done to keep these people in the light. The Praetor has been noticibly absent. Has the Praetor forsaken us? What kind of praetor leaves his people, when his people need him most (Sorry, FFX-2 reference, but it applies)?

We have enemies from other lands and even non-believers in our own civilization. Yet the praetor won't show. I ask you why (sorry, another reference). Why must we wait for this praetor to talk? Is he busy, or is he hiding something? He won't even let the high priests know. We shouldn't have to take this. Stand up! Let your voice be heard.

I will be your praetor, as I was the son of Ximar II just like Zarn. Remember the Order of Yevon under their guidence. It was glorious. Lets throw off these shackles of ignorance and take charge of our future. People of Valefor, Ixion, Ifrit, and Bahumut, lets overthrow the current praetor!

(OOC: That means a high priest vote to put CivGeneral to priest status)

OOC: I wish to apologise for the lack of activity in this RPG, Mainly its due to the corse load in college :(.

People, I have not forsaken you. I have been busy toiling around with the idea of Jekon's ideas of alowing to have the votes public and thus I would like to see if the other High Priests would approve.

If I am overthrown, I do not wish to be bumped down to the Priest ranks and climb back up to the High Priest rank again. I will promise to check in from time to time and make sure that my presance is known and make sure that people sill beleve in the Order of Yevon

Can you care to elaborate on the Ideas of the new legislation? Since I am not an expert rule writer like Shaitan and Donsig were ;).

"Has anyone know what happened to Zarn?" Said farmer Zetigata. "Have you heard, Zarn had been assassinated." Replied Ojo. The two farmers walks up to the temple but are stoped instantly when they mentioned the words Zarn and assassinated and were turned away. "Ill tell you what happened" said the annonmous old man as he labors to stand up and walks up to the two farmers.

"Soon after a persion named CivGeneral was supported to be next inline of the praetor line. He sent a hired mercenary/assassin to eliminate him so that Heizi can quickly take power. It all started one night when the assassin killed Zarn in his sleep with a bronze dagar."

"Hey you three, get out of here" Said the guard. Then the guard persued the three men away from the temple grounds.

*A dozen yards away from the the steps of the Temple of Bahumut. Jekon Speaks further*

As Yevon as my witness, I will not let you stand at the Temple of Bahumut without giving guidence. Why should you sit back and listen to what we say without any response? Why should we wait years for you to speak? I say enough! When I come back, I will have the support I need to bring you down. I also know that you, fiend, liar, you dirty snake, you killed my brother!

*Jekon leaves the capital to gain his support*

*Jekon travels throughout the lands gathering a mob to take out Praetor CivGeneral.*

"I will follow you to the ends of the Earth," cries one man.

"My sword is at your side," exclaims another.

"Anything for Ximar's last son," yells a third man.

"My friends, remember that CivGeneral isn't as young as he used to be. If he surrenders, we shall let him live. If he fights, he must die. I have someone on the inside of the Temple of Bahumut working for us. For his safety, I will not state his name now, but he will be honored after CivGeneral dies or is exiled."

"Three cheers for High Priest Jekon!" bursts out the second man.

"Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!" they shout.

CivGeneral begans to train with martial art weapons to defend himself against the mod. CivGeneral also dispatches some guards that are loyal to me to subdue Jekon

JackA asks CivGeneral Can i help in any way to subdue Jekon?

CivGeneral replys to JackA, "Yes, please help in any capacity to subdue Jekon".

Jack says to CivGeneral I am a pretty good spy.Do you have anything in that direction that i could do?

I'd like to be the High Priest of the Temple of Ifrit.

Whoa, slow down there buddy. Last time I checked the High Priest of the temple of Ifrit was myself. Just because I am not partcipating in the struggle between the Praetors, does not mean you can just knock me off my throne.

OOC: You don't choose. You have the wait in the list. It doesn't matter if your on CG's side. BTW, you taking CG's side is noted. I'll remember that, after he is out of power.

Jack sneaks up behind Jekon and whacks him with the katana handle knocking him out, wraps him in a tarp and throws him far away from the temple in a ditch. After that he sneaks back to CG and reports that he knocked out Jekon cold and threw him in a ditch far far away.

I have a proposal for you, Mr. Ijuno.

I need you to convince the high priests of the other temples to rally behind me. If they do, I will promise them "Cloisters of Trials' for their Temples. These cloisters give additional protection to the Temple as the Faithless cannot get through. It is like a labyrinth in a sense.

If you get at least one high priest to follow me, I promise make you captain of Yevon's guards (with additional pay). They aren't in existance yet, but I will allow you to hire eight guards and a lieutenant (Non-player characters) for each temple but they must follow Yevon and had training in the military. This is in addition to you being a priest.

With the other high priests, we can avoid the bloodshed and just exile CivGeneral.

CivGeneral awaits for the arival of Ijuno. CivGeneral beguins pondering on what to do when in exile, little does CivGeneral know that his cousin is a bit upset about what has been going on.

"Sigh, Why must my term as leader has to be filled with bad apples. I want Jekon dead for starting this uprising." CivGeneral then walks up to the window and looks out the horizon. Then, CivGeneral hears a door opening and a shadowy figure approaches him to choke CG to death. Luckly, with a few martial arts skills, CivGeneral forces the hands of the choker lose and gets out of harms way. after he get out of the grip, CG forcefully pushes the offender's hands twards him (Pushing the fingers back), and kicks him out of the window. In the process, a medalion fell out of the mysterious figure. CivGeneral picks it up and it says "The follower of Jekon". Now CivGeneral becomes more aware of his surroundings, then Ijuno arives to give a message to CG.

"Sir Sir" Ijuno said as he rushes in. Ijuno knows that CG's family is deaply involved with the martial arts and knows not to supprise CG. "I am here to tell you that Jekon is planning to rally the High Priests behind him" said Ijuno. "Is there a way for Jekon to stop this uprising?" I asked.

Jack Ijuno tells CG What Jekon told him about him having guards and then he told CG Listen I have 14 Friends of mine that can guard you from Jekon and his crzed followers. I will leave you with their contact info.
Jack Ijuno hands a piece of papyrus with some info and asks Do you have a house or something? I would like to sleep near you because i can detect intruders you know.

The Temple of Ifrit is the newest creation in the great order of Yevon, a great order that is splitting. So far, I have declared the Temple of Ifrit as neutral in this war, but nothing ever comes from inaction. A shall not let us sit here, inactive, as history rumbles around us!! We will leave our mark on this planet!!

The poistion of praetor was stolen, unfairly. The poistion must be given to the honorable Jekon, the rightful heir!!!

- Legion Bravo, inside of the newly built Temple of Ifrit, exact date unknown.

CivGeneral soon looks out of his window, now more parinoid then ever plans to purge the people whom are disloyal to him off of the planet. "Jack Ijuno, I want you to keep an eye on the disloyalists and do eliminate them".

He soon noticed Sensi Hanko aproaching the gates. CivGeneral orders Jack to intercept him.

"What do you want?!" Said the guard as Sensi Hanko aproaches. "I am here to stop my crased cousin and convinse him to step down". "Get out of hear disloyalist or I will kill you!!" said the guard as he lunges forward to Hanko. "I must warn you, I am a master in the art of karate" replied Hanko as he walks away looking back past his shoulder to the guard. "Be warned, I will return to stop my crazed cousin" warned Hanko.

Jack Ijuno rushes out and with one smack of his katana kills Hanko and reports to CivGeneral that he has killed Hanko.

OOC - *Ahem* JackA, You did not have permision to kill off my NPC, Hanko.

OOC:CG i make it over again
Jack intercepted Hanko,and broght him to CG.

*Location: Temple of Ixion, Immo, Zarnia*

*Jekon appears at the Temple's steps along with dozens of bodyguards completely loyal to him. They run up to the main entrance and block it off with wood*

Jekon: High Priest Black_Hole, you will pay for your ignorance. You didn't join us, so you are against us and shall pay for it. You are unworthy of being a high priest. Ixion should hold you responsible for the defilement of its temple.

*Jekon's men have now blocked off all possible escape routes, and then they (with Jekon) leave the city with only seven left behind, making sure no one gets out of the Temple. The townsfolk are stunned by the act and hurry to their homes.*

"Jekon and his insurgents must be stoped, he is now attacking inocent people. I want Jekon to stop this rebelion. Jack, you must resuce Black_Hole from the cluches of Jekon and his insurgents"

CivGeneral walks to the window and looks out twards Ixion.

"Jekon must be stoped"

Black looks around at the sealed doors and peeks our a small window and sees many guards monitoring the place.
Black_Hole decided to take a cross(after asking forgiveness in advance by prayer) and used it to dig a small hole.
"Maybe in a long time I can dig my way out of here though BH"

*Strider and his followers come to the Temple of Ixion in Immo*

"High Priest Black_Hole!! I request your immediante surrender!!"

*Waits several minutes for a reply, but hears none*

"If you will not cooperate, than I have no choice but to force you to."

*High Priest Strider leads his followers in an assualt against the temple of Immo, the well-trained fanatics of the order of Yevon quickly use there determination and skill to over-run the temple, and within 45 minutes of the assualt, High Priest Black Hole is captured.*

"Our job here is done!! We have captured those that have betrayed us, and we will bring them to Ifrit and ask him for justice!!! The defiled temple must not stand any longer, burn it to the ground!!"

*Several men, reluctanly, set fire to the temple, and the group turns to leave as it burns.*

On the return trip to the Temple of Ifrit High Priest Black Hole escapes

*Location: RegentTown. Jekon is standing on a balcony and starts giving a speech*

Jekon: My brothers and sisters. Let's show our true support for Yevon by eliminating these fakes that cclaim themselves as followers of Yevon. Ah, but we know the truth. We know the truth of how they feel about my family, your families, the aeons, and even Yevon. The Temple of Ixion needs to be rebuilt. It was defilled by the unworthy, secretive priests in the north. Why isn't the praeotr willing to build a temple in the South. As a matter of fact, he only travels up north, and he only pays attention to the north. I said enough to this, and I ask you to do the same. I can have a Temple dedicated to Shiva built in this very city, if I became praetor. What do you say Regentown?

*The townsfolk make shouts of approval. Jekon continues speaking.*

CivGeneral slams his fist onto his desk. "I want Jekon and thoes insergents eliminated. I declare that all people who are disloyal to us, should be killed on the spot!. Ill send a squad of troops to raise Regenttown down to a fiery pulp. I have had enough of these insurgents and Jekon, they shall pay. I was planning to errect a temple in Regent town, but nooooooo, Jekon had to cause trouble. Jack, I want you to hurt him, make him pay for all the insurgencies he did. He needs to learn to step down and stop causing trouble"

Meanwhile, in the dundgen, CivGeneral's cousin is ploting to escape the clutches of CivGeneral's grasps and plots to kill him.

*Jekon continues his speeches throughout the South, and everytime the crowd cheers, throwing their support behind him. Afterwrds he arrives in Furuyama to make sure the priests keeped it in order.*

Jekon: What treachery is this? The Temple of Valefor is under siege by mercenaries. I can't believe CivGeneral would let non-believers take over a temple.

*Some mercenaries recognize Jekon and throw spears and fire arrows at him. Jekon ducks bhind a large rock. Several men appear in front of him, also ducking from the mercenary projectiles.*

Man (with Epolenepian accent): Sir, we must get you out of here. The Merc's have control of the Temple of Valefor for the time being, we must fall back to the mountains. There we will be save. Those mercs can't traverse the mountains like we can.

Jekon: Thank you. We shall make haste.

Man: Of course, sir.

*Projectiles continue to fly, and Jekon's party carefully falls back from the mercenaries and eventually retreat*

Jekon (while retreating): It looks like I am going to have to build that new temple a little quicker. I'm going to have to leave for Regent Town, after we reach safety.

Man: Of course, sir. We will take you as fas as Epolenep.

From the journal of CivGeneral

I have recived the report from one of my Generals that Furuyama has been recaptured. "Its high time that we build a better temple there, and get a new High Priest. I wish to authorize the construction of a new Temple of Ixion that was burned in Immo" I said with happyness. "Soon the insurgencies of Jekon will fall".

Ixion is in Immo....

"How did he escape?!!" Strider yells, furious at his loyal followers. Strider quickly takes a few breaths to calm himself down, and then turning back to his follows, starts in a much calmer and controlled voice. "Okay, were accept Yevons and Ifrits wishes. We must continue with our plans. Yes. Yes! That means to continue with ALL of our plans. Yes, but with luck, he won't know about THAT yet."
