Message: <blockquote data-quote="Grendel_Khan" data-source="post: 9488106" data-attributes="member: 7028554">LIEF remembers a lesson about the primal spirits. The Blessed of the Elect needed to know how to avoid their wrath, or even appease them, if necessary. For the combative spirits, if leaving their domain wasn't an option, the only alternative was surrender. Let nature dominate us beasts, as only nature should.The Blessed never practiced this—there were no primal spirits close enough to their camp—only listened and took notes that they later burned. What if that was another lie, like everything the Elect promised, like the Mogul himself?Lief strips to his undergarments and wades into the water. There, he forces the air from his lungs, shuts his eyes, and sinks."You rule here," he thinks. "I'm your servant. Speak through me."He waits underwater, forcing himself to remain still. Stars blink in his vision—he's drowning. The spirit has to know he means it. Or maybe he's a fool, and he'll simply die.His mind winks out. The shifter bobs to the surface. His eyes open, milky and weeping lake water."Say what you have to say," Lake Nan addresses those on shore.-------------------------Intent: Begin a conversation with the lake's spirit by making an obeisance and acting as its psychic conduit.Secondary: Religion. r(9)+4 = 13 vs. Easy DC 13.
