Pinned a message.
-----Phase 1----- CARGO The dusty underside of your new (work-in-progress) ship... why were you brought here? There is a large cage at the back of the hold. A live creature seems to be imprisoned within it. You are here to meet your crew and decide who does what. Sit back and wait to workshop your vessel. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/935740944496611398/935942294895480862/1c362c691dad2a8eabbb4de12f58fb11.png?width=748&height=500

At least one of the mates positions is open, by the way. I was presuming those not interested in captainship would not want to be a mate, as they may be saddled with that fate, in the event of my untimely demise. If you are interested, make it known to me, por favor.

Noah startles for a moment.
And as quickly as I utter that, I receive encouragement. Noah seems more content.

Yes, is there some confusion?
And, what is the name and nature of this caged beast? Of all the creatures I have herded and saved, I do not recall seeing one such as this.
Noah stands near the cage.

Thou is named Koeia, I do not think anyone knows what it is exactly.. other than a supposed monster.
Art thou a follower of Christianity?

Now, I do not want you to spend much longer in this capture, much less your remaining life. But, you can also imagine that I do not want the blood of myself or these other seafarers to be shed, and if you can not guarantee your restraint on your own terms- through no fault of your own, of course- then we will have to come to a solution more complex than letting you walk freely alongside us.
You say that term again. What does it mean?

“Christian.” I assume “Gensokyo” is the land you hail from, though it too is unfamiliar.

Thou art not familiar with Christianity..? Then whom is this "Lord" thou speak of?

There are many ways one could address Him, though most agree His true name is not speakable. One of His many titles is God.

Mononobe no Futo BOT 27-Jan-22 02:47 AM
Ah, much like the Tao! Though this only brings me more questions..
Thou has Christian beliefs, but no familiarity with its' name..?
Avatar
Noah BOT 27-Jan-22 02:52 AM
Well, what are the other hallmarks of this belief system? In my time there were other gods; none as great as the Lord, but some particularly irreconcilable ones claiming such. Perhaps this is a branch of followership to such a loathsome force.

Ah, the Tao! It is a way of life, a natural order, somewhat similar to a belief in God in a much more broad sense. Us Taoists follow the unpredictable rhythms of the universe in order to achieve immortality.

Maybe best not to antagonize the sea-beast lad.
I'm rusty on me mythology, but I think all sea-beasts are the children of Poseidon or some such.
And since we're dealin' with gods here, best not to bring any more of them into this.
