Role Play Challenge: Paranoia!

Got it for Gryphn


The several other boys all looked up to the man in the golden armor. Zara, or at least that was the name he had chosen for himself, looked around unsure of his surroundings. Everything looked so large, and some how not quite there...
"Boy, stop that!"
Zara jumped, startled back to where he was... but where was he? Things were not quite as he thought they should be. The old man, one of the palace guards by the sound of his voice, continued with his lecture. But this was not the palace.
The old man bowed to his audience.
"The Generals await." and the man an armor turned and departed.
"What?" Zara asked.
The other boys just stood, turned and left the room.
"Wait!" Zara called.
Zara looked about.
Alone!
The Generals can attack each other (but they would have made contact)
The first one to 'rescue' their General get's to keep him - and for extra XP kill off the others (4 Barbs at no cost - AI ones at the cost of WAR)

I think the changes are pretty self explanatory. I'll spoil them anyways
Spoiler :
Added a GG for each civ plus 4 for the barbs on a northern island. Also, on my own accord, I deleted some of the ice around the continent to allow for trade to open up again

I seen how Justin was treating his people! With slavery and oppression he has treated his people! So I took the city of Iconium and gave it to Zara.

Upon hearing this Justin jumped up from his throne and shouted “ Zara must die for this!” In great anger he stated to run out of his palace for he was going to try to kill Zara but one of his guards stopped him. “ Zara did nothing wrong for it is Matthewthegreat who has done this evil thing! Please spare Zara's life.” Said the guard. Zara and Justin have been long friends so Justin listened to the guard but still this tore them apart and their friendship will never be the same again for Zara has what was rightfully his.

Story continues in spoiler. (I didn't want mad to see this part of the story yet ;) )

Spoiler :
After all this, Justin secretly sent spies and privateers into Ethiopia hoping to cripple Ethiopia's economy...


Changes:

Spoiler :
I gave Iconium to mad and a -7 diplo hit towards Justin. Justin gets 2 spies and 5 privateers located though out Ethiopia.

Show news:

Near the city of Uzbek there was a little uproar this morning when a famous writer/director was alleged to be seen. The public went home disappointed when it turned out to be his brother. This brother could work some magic too, though as afterwards some mountains have arisen completely surrounding the city. There are similar reports coming from further beyond our borders.

Spoiler :

I raised the mountains around uzbek and put an oil resource there. I created two other such cities next to the land of the AI (and added a castle to those). Furthermore I removed all other sources of oil.

If you want oil, you have to culture flip one of those cities :D (or found standard ethanol).

The text above is a hint for those big geeks out there. I'd is not funny if I have to explain it, so figure it out yourselves.

The king of Ghuzz was known by no Ethiopian man. Cut off from the mainland of Ethiopia by sea and mountains, the valley of Ghuzz became a bustling city of over 800,000 people at its peak. At first, Ghuzz was only a settlement, bound only by the need of protection from the less friendly tribes, namely Ethiopia and Uzbek. Yet, as with all society, a leader rose to power shortly. All attempts of diplomacy with the king resulted in the messenger never being heard from again, the body washing up on the coast of Ethiopia weeks later. The government regarded Ghuzz as a target, little more than barbarians needing civilizing. None knew what the Ghuzz regarded the Ethiopians as, but by the state of the washed up bodies, it couldn't have been very good.

The King of Ghuzz, Kozlu Koy, was restless. The presence of the gods had been felt so much in the past decades, it could only be a matter of time before the gods take their wrath out on the people of Ghuzz, destroying the kingdom he had built for so long. Deciding he must act first, he prayed. Weeks passed, without the ruler moving, eating, or sleeping. He sat quietly in his chambers, eyes closed, muttering under his breath. Finally, a voice came to him, a pounding, powerful, angry voice: "I am sending you a monolith. This will go in the city center as a monument to the gods. In return, your kingdom will gain divine protection and favor. Above all, do not topple the monument." Koy passed out immediately, exhausted from the effort.

A monolith was found in the foothills of The Great Ghuzzian Range was found within the week. Shipped over by sheer man power alone, it soon stood tall in the center of the city, a symbol to the power of the gods. Ghuzz experienced enormous growth that year, and tribes considered threats before were now slaves to the chosen people of the gods. A revolt by the Gohu tribe, however, ended the prosperity gifted by the gods. Although the revolt was put down immediately, slaves had already toppled what they took to just be a symbol of Ghuzz domination and Gohu repression. Instantly, a rumble was heard in all lands of the earth, as if the earth itself was fearful. Water retreated from the shores, and mountains crumbled under the force of the gods. Ghuzz buildings were destroyed in seconds, the city left in rubble The monolith was put back up, and even though it was now supported by the bodies of slaves, the damage had already been done. The world had been changed.

Could someone make these edits:
Spoiler :
Jeez, that ended up being a god damn novel. Anyway, the changes:
Topple the mountains between the lower continent and Ethiopia, and create a three tile-wide land bridge.
Gift Ghuzz an Obelisk (Not a monument, an obelisk)
The big one: Fill the sea between Byzantium and Ethiopia (Basically connect Icoium and Yeha and Matara and Dorybeum, and fill the resulting space with decently resourced grasslands/plains with a few hills mixed in.)
 
The god of rain (who was known as the god of nature before he realised there already was a god of nature) decided he had been nice to Zara for long enough. He decided to flood all of Ethiopia. But just before he started, he decided the Ethiopians weren't THAT bad andmake their punishment less severe. It started raining. At first, the Ethiopians blessed the god of rain, as their dry desserts turned into wealthy grassland. However, when it continued raining and jungle grew all over their empire, they were less pleased.

By releasing the Cristo Redentor from its vile captors, Mad broke the spell and most of the ice melted back into the water, freeing up the waves once more.

(pretty much all the ice is gone now, just a few specks here and there, that's the only change I made)

To let the gods know, I will download the next segment after 5PM on Monday. My experience is that the peanut Gallery is less active over weakends and I want to make sure every nut is counted!
 
The Poet was pleased at Zaras continued coorporation, but decided not to reward him, for he felt that the other gods had taken too much interest in Zaras wellbeing. Instead, he thought he would do well to inspire the leaders of all nations of the world... And what better way to do that, than to magnify their capital cities?

Spoiler Paulus :
Increase Culture level in all nations capital cities to Legendary.
 
By the way diamondeye, people will have a hard time continuing the save chain if you don't post a save. ;)

He's kinda asking for Paulus to edit the save for him.

Speaking of which, has anyone edited the save for me yet? No one's mentioned it.

Spoiler :
The sea you want to fill has several ships and seafood (plus some of the privateers I gave Justin) what do you want do with them? I don't think they should just be deleted.
 
Spoiler :
Move the ships into open sea (If you can't do that in WB, just delete them and gift the same number back), and distribute the seafood along the coast of the new continent. It's a huge edit, but it'll still be awesome. :D

the god of the sea, has seen it to be rash to bring so much wrath upon the french peoples. the sea hath somewhat receded.

in ethiopia, asder has seen fit to bring forth fresh waters for the people, for which to irrigate their fields.

a spring flows forth in the jungles of the new found land and with this he bestows his first quest upon Zara,

"proud Zara, i come to thee to ask of you a task, take the city of Ghuzz as your own.

for if you do i shall bring fertile basins across your lands.

i leave this decision up to you. take this city and rename it in your honor, let the world speak of this city and know your name or refuse and stand at odds to the gods for what is left of your days.

Spoiler :
That may've just been the greatest thing ever. Thanks asder, I just laughed so hard my lung burst.

EDIT: You think Mad has the sense to know that something baaad will happen when the city is captured and the obelisk is destroyed?

I hope not. :D
