Amletan's succesors

OOC: Hadn't posted in a bit because I thought there would be some more GM info coming.

As Martok puts the finishing touches on his volcanic home, he feels that there is a gathering of his brethren off in the distance. Time to go meet the rest of them I guess. As Martok moves towards the gathering, he stops by several small villages of the man-things, and teaches their tribal leaders the secret of fire, so that they can cook their food and warm their homes.

Epheme seems to relax a little as Anaziel appears. "It's good to see you again," he says and then frowns, "We have met before, haven't we? I seem to be confusing things in my head..." While he speaks, the godling cautiously reaches out and touches Whispers cool hand.
 

Anaziel approached closer and touched Whisper's hand with his own. Gazing at the new godling he responded in his graceful tone.
"We have met, in a fashion. When last we spoke you were of two minds."
 


There was a breath of pause, and Whisper noticed Martok's approach just before she did whatever it was she was about to do.

"A conclave indeed. This won't do at all. There must be a place we can meet when need dictates."

The comely form of her mortal seeming looked around, and she pointed, releasing the hands of her brethern.

"The peak of that mountain will do for now," she intoned, her finger indicating a distant, lonely peak that jutted out against the horizon. "We can work out the niceties later. Brothers, meet me there, all of you, where we can talk unhindered by the scurrying mortals at our feet."

And then the woman was gone, as if she'd never been.
 

Epheme becomes more reserved as the other deities arrive. This has happened before, he thinks to himself, no, that's not right, but something like this has happened. It's hazy but I remember all of these beings arriving and then... something happened. Damn! What happened? He turns to ask Whisper for more information, but she has already gone.
"The mountain it is," he says aloud to no one in particular, and then begins jogging. He rapidly builds up speed until he is sprinting and then simply dissolves like sand thrown in the wind. Moments later, on the mountaintop, a swirl in the air announces the arrival of the godling, who blows back together just quickly as he dissolved before. Brushing the dust of travel from his clothing, he settles down on a rock, gazing down at the valley below the peak. A river in the distance, running into a lake, catches his eye. What's that over there? Seems like a nice place, I should go visit when I'm done. It looks like there's a village too, perhaps somebody there can guide me over the mountains. There must be wonders on the other side!
