Farownes02 Revived!!!!

If you want, you can send me the map for the new update when you're done, and I can fix that up before it's posted. I'd rather not continue fixing this one up so it quickly gets changed back to the old style. Oh yeah, and do you think it should be larger like that? The one I posted is about 50% larger.

I would prefer if you kept it smaller. It is all blurry. If you want to make it larger everytime I update and make the font I would be very happy with that.

Well, the don't Speak so they hae no problem yelling their names... Even I can pronounce them! I'll parentheses correct vowels they're missing in their yells.
 
They sort of just know everything that's happening. It's like magic realism except less realistic.

In Teet there is a saying that goes something like this.

"Men who do not send in requests in the form of written documentation are of relation to the mythological beast of ignorance, Li."

Part I​

The first to arrive were the wisdom-keepers for they had the maps. They settled at the mouth of what the local tribes saw as a great river. It was large, but certainly not “great”. The rich alluvial plain was wide and stretched many miles upriver. The land was mostly untouched by war and devastation. The locals called themselves “bashie” or spirit people. They were a simple and earnest folk who appreciated the clever ways the small, but growing group of Tilapians, as they called themselves, could make life less of a chore. These Tilapians were the “people of the fish” and had an impressive knowledge of water how to use it and the things that lived in its depths.

After a prosperous summer and fall among the bashie, the Tilapians prepared great canoes to sail south along the coast. The elder bashie were dismayed and begged Lila, one of the women who led the Tilapians, to stay another year and guide the spirit people. Lila was reluctant and the nightly council fires of the Tilapians burned long and bright for a week. In the end they agreed to stay and guide the bashie for another year, even though they knew one year would stretch into two and then another and soon it would be decade and more. So, yes, they would stay just another year.

In the spring, as if by magic, Tilapian women carrying small children found their way to the fertile plain along this unnamed river of the spirit people and a new liveliness sprung up among the bashie and their guests, summer and fall was again prosperous and rich with food and hope. The bashie were deeply tied to the earth, its bounty and its source of life, but prior to the coming of the “fish people” life had been a struggle for them. Their small corner of the world saw few visitors and most of them came only to take what little the bashie had.

To the amazement of the bashie, when raiders from the distant mountains arrived to empty the barns and storehouses of wheat and barley and rape the young women, the gentle Tilapians showed they also knew the art of weapons and of making war. To the last man the raiders were slain without mercy and then it was that last man who was spared and brought into the village and soon favored by Lila and her wise companions.

Young men arrived in small groups and were a welcome addition to the local workforce. Coupling and marriage became common among the young people of both groups and the villages grew to small towns. Wood and earthen buildings were improved and on the fifth anniversary of the first meeting of the bashie and the Tilapians, a small stone building was built around a well, on a hill, that was not too far from the ocean. It was dedicated to union of earth and water.

If you guys want an update this weekend get those orders in. If not then we will update next weekend :).

Another Story

And it came to pass that the years did flow from one unto the next and before long seven years had passed. Inowe became the chief town of the Bashie, as they decided to officially call themselves. It grew rapidly and the almost magical skills of the former Tilapians were made apparent to all. They excelled in stonework, weaving, pottery and metalworking. They could all read and write and play music and dance. And they were generous with their knowledge. They taught the bashie without constraint or prejudice. Iron and copper were discovered in the hills that edged the fertile plains. Gold was panned from the gravel beds of the newly named Samina River. The gold was in great abundance and the wise ones among the Bashie said it was a gift from the distant mountains. And so Inowe grew and prospered.

Tall trees were harvested from the coast to the north and from a small shipyard extraordinary vessels took shape and everyone learned to love and to take part in adventures at sea. No one sailed too far yet, but for the spirit people it was still a great and adventure. For the former Tilapians it appeared to be the first step to fulfilling some lost promise. Fishing thrived and a small fleet of boats took to the shallows not far off shore and brought home rich harvests regularly. Word of Inowe and its stone buildings, shops and urban lifestyle did not go unnoticed among the neighboring tribes. Many came to trade, some stayed. And when the brigands came down from the mountains, few returned home and those that did, did so empty handed. The Bashie were clever and skilled in defending their lands and protecting their people.

These Tilapians talked little of their past, where they came from or the source of their knowledge, but they told long stories of great deeds that took place at the founding of the world. They spoke of times when Gods walked the earth and talked with men and taught them wisdom. And as if they had been there themselves, they recalled the greed and the lust for power among men that brought ruin upon the world and the destruction of all that was good and right with the world. And they wept as they stared into dimming campfires lost in some none to distant memory.

And when it came time to choose a ruler for the Bashie, the wisdom keepers withdrew for a fortnight. When they reappeared in the public square, the spirit people were further amazed ….
