[QUOTE="Jochannan, post: 2408181, member: 34068"] [i]Alexandra dives back to her master, though she wished to continue her conversation with KARMA, the rebellion below required her. Humans, though numerous and capable, find that they cannot damage the citadel itself, no matter what implements or magic they use. Many mortals die in the in fighting, but the angels seem untouchable. However, many of the angels are confused, and escape into the sky above to wait out the conflict. Others organize into small armies, fighting back the human uprising at every turn. Humans soon find that it is not just the angels with whom they must contend, ents and elementals and watchers and all manner of others split into factions, those who side with the humans, those who side against them, and those who run away as fast as they can. The humans themselves are not united, and some turn on each other for the sake of petty differences. At last the rebellion crawls to a halt, with the citadel stained in blood. [/i] [i]The leader of the rebellion, a man of great magical and martial skill, finds himself alone and surrounded by a legion of angels in the dais chamber. In desperate fury, he lashes out with sword and spell upon Jo'Karr himself, as the angels look on in surprise and horror. When the man's strength is spent, he realizes that he has done nothing to Jo'Karr, and falls to his knees staring up at the god. The angels drag him away.[/i] [i]Jo'Karr remains completely unmoved throughout the rebellion, as though he either isn't aware of it, or doesn't care. The leaders of the mortals who sided with the angels assemble with the archangels in the dais chamber, and ask of Jo'Karr what he wants to happen to the captured humans, and those who fled. Jo'Karr remains motionless. [/i] [i]After a time, Alexandra flies up to him, and places her hand on his shoulder. She turns to the others.[/i] [i]"This is a mortal affair, and so, he will not intervene."[/i] [i]The leaders debate, should they be kind, or cruel? Should humans be banished, or executed, or given another chance? One of the watchers suggests: [/i] [i]"We should pray for guidance from the other gods, we should pray that Tocho will compromise with us, we should send our best mages to Endovior."[/i] [i]In the end, the surviving humans are banished from the citadel for a time, until a better solution can be devised.[/i] [/QUOTE]
