Fraemaour graciously refuses the power while accepting the science.
"Use the power for your own purposes, my vassal. I need it no longer. The knowledge is all I require from you."
Turn 8 Concludes

Fraemaour conquers the Axis Mundi from Mogar. Mogar did not hold at end of turn, so Fraemaour will gain the 4 points from 1 population there.
He also conquers without opposition at H6.
More calculations and map updates forthcoming!
Darjuu and Mogar
You guys have populations on the same tile. Darjuu, redo your turn after I calculate everything. It'll count for your last turn, but Mogar has already taken those spots.
Mogar
Just to note, the 1x smite at G6 destroyed your settlement by killing the only pop there.

Turn 9 Begins!
The shifting, obscuring mist around the Axis Mundi dissipate as a god claims it. Visible from all corners of the world, the Axis Mundi appears now as the World Tree, its branches in full blossom and dripping with dew like unto the stars.
Alovalophos pronounces, "The god who controls the Axis Mundi has full sway over how it shall appear in the world. This is the vision of Fraemaour, but it may not always be so!
"With the first capture of the Axis Mundi, it is now time that the gods be tested. If you brave my challenges, great power and prestige shall I grant unto you as a divine boon! To those who fail, however, I say simply: Vae victis!"
------------
Later, Attiliax petitions his father again. "Father, my sword seeks blood. Why must you restrain me?"
"Foolish son!" replies the father. "Your entrance unto the world below shall come at the DUE TIME. Your impatience shall hasten not your appearance upon the world below."
EVENT: On the isle to the East, a SMOKE MONSTER and POLAR BEAR army has spawned.
The Smoke Monster is fearsome! +3 armour +3 weapons and has war. 15 points for killing.
The polar bear is having trouble with temperate climates. It is a regular army worth only 2 points for killing.
It has also been expanded to accomodate more land.
EVENT: The RTC spawns more NPCs including the first two KRAKEN.
The Kraken is a monster with 3 armies (Kraken 3 = 1 Kraken, but you know, so people know they're facing 3 armies) with +4 weapons +3 armour with war. It will attack any army within 1 square of it at the end of the turn. It is immune to smites. 25 points for killing.
Also: Any smites or obliterates on RTC NPCs within 2 squares vicinity of the Kraken will permanently increase his attack power by +1 weapons per smite action.
More Mermaids and Sirens in abundance.
EVENT: Quests will be distributed in PM to all players. (I am going to get Umby or someone else to give Fraemaour's for you know...obvious reasons). The rewards will be the same: 20 Power and 20 points. They will be hard to accomplish!

The Wayfarers, pleased with their new fleet, continue to advance their maritime ways. Their fleets set sail and assault a group of warriors from the Riptide Confederacy. Many of the enemy are lured to their destruction by trickery sent from the fickle god Celios, but others meet the amassed strength of the Wayfarers.
Clarification: Smites can be assumed to go through v. troops not-in-settlements and NPCs, but should not be assume to go through against a player's worshippers/troops in a settlement before he has moved for the sake of whether or not a military miracle is necessary to bypass that tile.
So, you attack NPC Mermaids, for instance, with smite. You kill all the Mermaids. Then you want to move through that tile and inspire forces, you do not have to use COUNTER-ATTACK (with or without CHARGE).
Conversely, you attack Billy's Tile with 3 worshippers and 3 troops with 6 smites and he hasn't moved yet. If you were to put troops in that tile that turn, you'd need to cast COUNTER-ATTACK to attack further. If he did move already, though, you would not have to.
I forgot to add a Settler to my turn summary. He is at B6 and he is very lonely.

Iazamaz appears to Fraemaour as the same burning grasvolk as before. "my apologies father, I fear I need the science this turn. Take this gift of power instead.i assure you. Our deal will proceed as per agreed next turn." Iazamaz appears to his people again. "say you so protectors, so go well protectors, fight the four legs and continue to live so. To you at the west.I have granted you a protector to protect you against the peculiar beast.Ethereals,I have taught you the art of many forms, and the way of the vulnerable one,so use it to your advantage.so I say to you, prosper. the monks in the west nod in understanding and move to face the enemy in the distance, their spindly form shifting in that of the centaurs.they sow discord among the centaurs, and strike the centaurs in the back when they least expect it .meanwhile the monk in the east guards the small village from the beast in the distance.

"Granted," replies Fraemaour as he accepts the power alongside the science. "May your Ethereals do well against those Centaur, who at long last are being reckoned with!"
He-Who-Brings-Life-to-the-Land is, however, far from so beneficient to Mother. "I have not slaughtered your people this cycle, but if you do not remove yourself from my presence by the turning of the world, I shall not only ravage your lands here, but I shall pursue you to the Isle to the East, land there, and take your possessions for my own. You have been warned. An attack on me shall seal the doom of the Goblin folk!"
And as Fraemaour speaks this and that to the gods, his people proceed along a war path with the RTC. Their weapons now channel the life-power of the vastly numerous Grasvolk and so glow with a warm, green fire, that is not unlike the same glowing from their armour which now accomodate a magical shield-like effect ontop of the nigh-impenetratlbe thorny carapace of impossibly dense, but miraculously light, ironwood.
Owing to their gigantic forms, the Grasvolk have found need to domesticate great beasts to ride. Elephant-like beasts seem the only common animal suited to support their weight and height, and so the heavy knights of the Grasvolk ride these as mounts.
"The world grows more violent with every passing cycle...What a heavy price must be paid for life."

"As it stands, you have pleased me all: Wars have been fought, blood has been spilt, and the world itself is transformed by your power. But you have many more challenges to face, and more wars to wage, before this world closes to conflict and a new God is born."
Event: A few more RTC on the board.

Grotar's blood-soaked cultists praise his name, and when the Mogar is weakened from her foolish overreaching in the West, Grotar strikes. The goddess herself is devoured by He Who Shakes The Earth, her essence consumed and her spirit obliterated. Without their goddess to empower them, her shamans are slaughtered as the followers of Grotar seize power in his name. In the east, the coup is mostly bloodless - at least, by Grotar's standards. Only her priestesses and those who will not submit to Grotar are burned alive. However, smoke clouds the west as the Western Tribes that the thoughtless Mother so foolishly weakened herself creating slaughter themselves in bloody conflict. Grotar, it seems, is less interested in the West, and he bends his powers to reshaping Mogar's weakling civilization into something more suitable. Cowards and runts are driven out into the wastes to thrive or die as they can, while armies gather and ships are built, to bring glory to Grotar through battle against the mermaids and other pests.

RP:
The usurpation of Mogar's holdings by Grator is an unexpected twist, but as the Father of the Fields is left in peace he brokers no ill will towards the new comer. In fact, he does not regard him at all.
As for the movements in the sea towards the East, he proclaims to those upon that Isle, "These armies are, for the time being, mere watchers. I intend not to interfere in your affairs."
He comments not on the War in the West.
And to Utatnaphor, "These swamps ill suit your chosen's paws. I intend little in the way of encroachment and garrison them only in defense. I will grant you a cycle of peace if you are so inclined to prove my good will."
Meanwhile, the Grasvolk grow as much in piety as in population, and their worshipful songs fill the world. The Grasvolk hymnal is a mighty work of art, made all the more beautiful by the Grasvolk's grassy forms accomodating the forms of instruments, that they both play and sing at once. They forge new weapons, too, as they sing. Fearsome weapons. Weapons that channel the true power of Fraemaour and shall deliver fury unto his enemies should the need arise.

addendum to the addendum:
It's my first turn, so I am still figuring things out!
Turns out sacrifice is a miracle, rather than a city action! This means that before I get rid of those western towns I can do:
F5: Grow, Advance (gain 2 science)
G5: Grow, Advance (gain 2 science)
H5: Grow, Advance (gain 2 science)
Then I just sacrifice six times instead of three to get rid of em all anyway.

The Wayfarers surge forward from their northern front; their god builds ephemeral roads in front of them to speed their journey towards their warlike foe; these roads vanish behind the armies, eager to test their mettle against a new foe.
Just as his armies arrive, Celios sends confusion amongst the Minoans, causing some of them to destroy one another--and so his warriors rejoice in the cleverness of their god as they taste battle once more.
The War in the West
Celios' armies have armour +10 and weapons +8. The Warlord has Weapons +6 and Armour +6 with war +1 weapons/armour due to being on mountains. Warlord: 6 to kill, 1 to survive. Celios: 2 to kill, 5 to survive.

Rule Clarification
I had meant (sincerely, ask Umbral) to make it possible to trade Science. This is why some players (Fraemaour/Iazamaz) were trading science. However, the end result were the rules said otherwise, so...
Fraemaour will begin next turn with (the otherwise impossible) -30 science, meaning he must advance up to 30 science in order to go back to 0 science. The rules are changed for next turn to allow for science trades.
MAJOR EVENT MAJOR EVENT MAJOR EVENT MAJOR EVENT MAJOR EVENT
"Half the world's time has expended, and yea, the Gods have grown mighty, but mightier still will they grow in the Hastening End. Channel your numina that you might command a FURTHER DOMAIN!"
All gods are granted their pick of a further domain from the following:
Discovery, Nature, Protection, Slavery, Death, Travel, Wizardry.
Excluded: Peace, War, Militarism, Community, Destruction.
Map updating and other turn processing coming. It'll take me a good hour to do.
Domains can't be doubled.
Iazamaz
You can only do one move per turn at a settlement.
So you can either make armies or make magic shields, not both. I'll given you back your 6 power from magic shielding, as that was second.
It's GROW + 1 other action.
Fraemaour
You also have 1 GB army at F11.
21 Settlements and 114, not 22 settlements with 115.
Grotar
You get +7 points from killing those mermaids.
I am still updating turn. I have Utat and Darjuu to do. Give me a bit more for that.
Sorry to take so long.
Utnatphor v. the Centaurs!
Utatnaphor has weapons 5 and armour 6. The Centaurs have war. Utatnaphor kills on all but 1, survives on all but 6.
Utatnaphor:
Centaurs:
3 Centaur killed, bu tsadly all of Uta's armies are killed. The Centaurs prevail.
Utatnaphor v. the Sirens. Sirens have weapons 2 and armour 1. This means they will kill on base, and will be killed on 4 or higher.
Utatnaphor:
Sirens:
The Syphinx prevail without loss. +10 points for Uta. He conquers the square, too.
Iazamaz
The science you donated to Fraemaour last turn goes back to you.
Science now officially can be traded between players. Sorry for the confusion. Hopefully this will even out that error.
Turn 11 begins
Last Turn Advantage Modifier:
1. +20 power.
2. +15 power.
3. +11 power.
4. +9 power.
5. +0 power.
6. -11 power.
7. -15 power.
More RTC.
The massive event from above (new domains!).
And more land being added as we speak.
Rule Clarification
Global spells must add 20 power for every player who has Protection whom would be negatively effected by the casting of the miracle.
Thus an unhalved Armageddon with 3 players having Protection would cost 160 points.
Conversely, an unhalved Climate Change that hurts only 1 of the 3 players would cost 140. "Hurt" is decided by the native biome of the player's chosen race. Moving away from that native biome = hurt. Moving towards = help. This is irrespective of the fact that someone might, strategically, want it to go the opposite way.

The Wayfarers continue their march upon the Warlord's lands. Celios awakens volcanoes in the newly taken lands, rendering much of the Western Continent a wasteland. He sends illusions to the other gods, taking the form of fine, fast ships bearing a message:
"I have claimed the Western Continent as my own, and my Wayfarers shall learn to be content in the bounty it has to offer--for I shall offer no war to any god who does not encroach upon my domain."
Rule Change/Clarification
When under attack by a force that you cannot hope to prevail against (as judged by you), you may elect to SACRIFICE ALL your population and run to any open land with the Create People miracle.
Your sacrifice will net you full power for non-attacked tiles, but -1 power. The conqueror will, instead of losing out on new conquests, gain a new tile of 1 pop.
This rule is ONLY in effect if you SACRIFICE ALL, not sacrifice specific tiles with the exception of others. Otherwise, you can't sacrifice worshippers, but you can sacrifice armies while under attack.
Rule Clarification
With Seafaring +4, if you go from a shallow sea into a deep sea in the same turn, you only can move one tile, not three more.

The ethereals flourish greatly as their numbers increase steadily. In their mountain monestaries they pick up a most unusual habit- Gardening. The shapeshifters turn their bodies into tools, while mastering the use of some conventional tools. the sudden boom in agriculture inspires another wave of monks to ascend into the ranks of the already chosen, who join their fellow brothers and sisters with a shovel or a rake.

Grotar earns his sobriquet, as his armies gather. The boots of the marching armies shake the earth, and their chants of "All will tremble, when Grotar comes." In fast ships, moving with sail and oar, they slaughter mermaids and gather at coasts to oppose various sea monsters. Grotar demands, "Go east." and so the beats of the drums keep the enslaved rowers moving in time, establishing outposts in new lands.

Turns out that I got how terrain miracles work incorrectly, so that the Armies in Q5 cost 8 rather than 4. So I will skip the Grow action on that city, leaving it with Population 5, and have Remaining Power of 0. Silly Grotar.
Also, apparently I have a city that the GM removed by accident and Mogar never bothered to tell him about. Sent me a PM about it, which I just noticed now, and mentioned. It's in A13.
It increases my Power by 4 from it's population.
Settlement at A13: CREATE 3 ARMIES. (cost: 3)
Remaining power: 1.
RP: Grotar's cult takes a while to spread all the way to the furthest corners of Mogar's widespread tribes. His cultists arrive with their whips and chains, and orders to turn the simple goblins into competent sailors, or die.

RP:
A watchful peace sees Fraemaour expand his holdings and take the Axis Mundi once again. Once more, the great, flowering World Tree spreads its branches from the spiritual center of the World. Alongside that, the protection of the Father of the Fields extends to all his holdings, stealing them from harm in a manner hitherto unknown to the people.
Taking advantage of the Pax Fraemaorica, the Grasvolk vastly enhance their weaponry. The strange materials that their weapons are now composed of seem as if distilled from the very principle of life. It is natural, then, that they should be able to take it as easily. They are, for the time being, untested. They shall taste not of blood this day.
"Iazamaz," proclaims He-Who-Brings-Life-to-the-Land, "I come watch over your progress with an eye towards potential aggressors or fools who know not what is proper and good for them."
As to the great illusion of Celios, "Let it be so: I have no designs upon the West, and find peace more prosperous than war."

As always, tell me if I messed anything up. I'll fix.
Event (and rule change)

RP:
In the east, filthy cities sprawl further and further across the land. Within, slaves work fire-forges churning out armor day and night, and whip-wielding slavers roam the streets hunting for unfortunates to feed lethal iron mines. Desperate for any chance to escape, goblins swarm into the armies of various warlords, each eager to earn more wealth, power, and just maybe Grotar's favor - or at least avoid his ire - by producing greater and greater victories. Soon, the earth groans under the weight of Grotar's armies. Adventurers in fast ships take sail to slaughter beasts, hoping for glory, or at least glorious deaths, while the earth shakes from Grotar's armies as they approach cities that seem ripe for the picking. In the west, there is more settlement, for wood to build fast ships and fuel forges to produce the harpoons required to slaughter mermaids.
In the north, a few vessels find a new land, and goblin explorers plant a flag on the beach, proclaiming, "I claim this land for Grotar!" They immediately set about constructing a settlement, and march into the wilderness to save the souls of the hapless natives. And also enslave them.
Always, the armies chant as they march in step, words to inspire fear, "All will tremble, when Grotar comes."
