Recognising the Mothers voice he kneels instantly, his forehead touching the floor once before he returns to upright kneeling. "Forgive me Mother. Forgive my disgraceful failure. I was poorly prepared, but I will do better. You have opened all the mysteries for me, and yet I have only touched the surface of the boons you can bestow." (ooc: I've only used SRD spells, I'll have to look trough some splatbooks.) Worrying irrationally about them letting the posessed barmaid know too much he barely hears the voice of the Goddess. (Now we will have to trap her pathetic little soul and destroy it... It's almost a good thing that they will fail to kill the Disciple, for I don't have the power to cast that spell again today...) His mind snaps back to full attention once she mentions the Disciples power. He answers thoughtfully."She was more powerful than I had anticipated, almost too mighty to be mortal. A dozen deadly spells I threw and she survived them all. But how has she grown so strong so soon, my Goddess? How can the Master bestow such powerful blessings? He must be close to his goal now, and I have already wasted a day for little gain.Or, have I cause to hope it's not the Master's work? Has the Disciple unearthed some other artifact to grant her such powers? No, all their attention should be focused on the Obelisk, anything else would be folly..." "It is a blessing, a blessing beyond all bliss, that you have pierced the veil to join me here. And yet I worry, forgive me for my audacity but I must. I worry because what you can do so can other deities, and if we break all the seals we will have lost the advantage that we now hold. Now I am, even as flawed as I am, one of the fifteen most powerful beings in the world. Me and my allies, if I can control them, have with your direction and aid an excellent chance of succeeding with our quest. But the more powerful beings arrive the smaller our chances will be. We can not stand against the Gods in all their countless thousands...""We can not stand against one God, and yet we must. You could crush him like an insect, but he could crush me just as easily. And yet, you cannot fight all the pantheons of the multiverse. My Goddess, forgive my small mind, but I do not see the way to turn this to our advantage. Unless there is a way to let you in without opening the path for others. If Gallador could fully enter the world then surely there must be a way for you to do the same."[/sblock]</blockquote>
