[QUOTE="William Ronald, post: 1966166, member: 426"] [b]Al'Akbar Acts[/b] During the great battle between Iuz and the powers arrayed against him, Al'Akbar, Daoud, and their forces encountered drow deep in the throws of Withdrawal. The minds and bodies of the drow writhed in torment, their features contorting as if in the grip of a horrific nightmare. Al'Akbar, Daoud, their clergy, and the gathered celestials and genies poured forth their power to aid the stricken people. (As I have been away, I imagine that no one listened to Al'Akbar's earlier call for peace.) Al'Akbar's mind reaches forth into those of the stricken drow of Oerth, sending a message of hope and love. The mental voice is one of comfort, the facial expression the drow perceive is one of someone who has gone through great struggles and survived, as well as having learned the lessons of compassion. "You are not alone, my friends. All of sentience is bound up in the great family of Being and all life is truly akin. Feel it within yourselves. You are loved. There are those who are willing to stand with you in your time of need. You are not alone, my friends.

I believe that Oerth and Greyspace will need all her children in the days to come. I call you to life, to hope, and healing. You are not alone and you are loved." They see a vision of Oerth and Greyspace as it could be, worlds of great beauty where all use their gifts to promote peace and understanding. The damage of the Twin Cataclysm is undone and rivers flow through the Dry Steppes and the Sea of Dust, amid cities, farmlands, great plains, forests, and fruit trees. Nation does not make war against nation, hunger is ended, and all are treated with compassion and dignity. "This is what we may be able to achieve. I urge you to respond to my healing. I will work to help you through the Withdrawal. Remember, there are those who love you and respect you. I offer healing and hope, to you, my friends." AIRWHALE: Al'Akbar sends a message to the leaders of the Elven Imperial Navy. I will be there shortly to resolve the situation. KALANYR: Morwel receives a telepathic message. "I am arriving shortly." Al'Akbar, the hero god Daoud, and seven elite PL worth of djinn and celestials appear near Ellistrae and Morwel. If the fight with Iuz and the Tempest continues, Al'Akbar will state the following. "The Whispered One comes soon, the being who desires to feed upon our souls like a man might feed on luscious grapes, and you fight still.
