1: Julia shields her eyes from the light as it dies down, and she looks shocked: the background now a bright red.
2: From far away, we see that she is now seeing the astral plane: a confusing realm of skin and bone and flesh. She stands there, naked, on a seemly endless floor of skin. A large figure looms, one sharp leg near her.
3: Over her, her god is revealed: Air’Asha, the multi-armed serpent god, exists as a centipede-like creature of tremendous size: a large purple wound on its face. It towers over her, bent down, Julia pathetic in size compared to her.
….. Oh…..
I wasn’t expecting THAT… Um….. Oh…..
I feel like, unless they look different at a certain angle, this is a PERFECT example of, “you looked way different in your photo”. Just, comparing it to the statue Julia has.
She also looks quite a bit different than Her silhouette. So, She’s a giant myriapod (millipedes and centipedes). That’s about all I have to say for now, other than I look forward to learning more about these intriguing deities in the coming pages and issues.
Right then… uh, make a will save to see if you run away in terror, then… roll for initiative?
This should get interesting.
I can image that Air’asha may offer Julia the following deal:
“Well, Julia, I will offer you 3 choices:
1) I will save you, but you must help the people run one of my public “shrines” for about 5-10 years,
2) I will just flatten you like a paper cup for annoying me + disturbing my nap, or 3) you choose not to
do choice number 1, and I’ll just give you back to the black idol.
…so, which do you wanna choose?”
Hoo boy. 😀
Rhoda and Julia have a bit more in common now.
Deus Ex Machina in 3..2..
Maybe it’s friendly!! :O
Everyone else: That’s not what I imagined it’d look like at all.
Me: I wonder how it got that huge wound on it’s face.
This, this right here. I’m like, “wow, big bug. That wound looks bad. Missing piece? A scar?”
That has to be the biggest nope nope I ever nope at.
Five bucks says this beasty isn’t Air’asha, because the glowing light is coming from somewhere -above- it.
6 bucks says that its the thing that its she drank
[Even money] says- it’s the robot that she killed! 🙂
Huh?
“Even money” is a gambling term.
It means that- I’ll bet just as much money as you do, that I will win the bet.
