Questionable Questing

Got some personal writing done but need to do more with dedication tomorrow

Did some grocery shopping, a couple loads of laundry, and unpacked a few boxes. Pretty boring and uneventful day to be honest, but I needed it. Still just getting used to work and the new place so a weekend to destress was nice.

Nice. How is the house?

Been pretty cozy actually, really liking the layout and having my own bathroom and a garage again.

My aunt is setting up her owl collection, she likes collecting little ceramic and marble owls, and its sound weird but its been pretty nice seeing them back up.

Homely reminders to make the house invested with your presence. Would talk about Shaviade and Avantie if you like

Sure, what have you been working on with it?

Idea of ancient Pagan faith with the Shaviade Spirit Mothers who once helped nobles and King and Queen act as vessels for demons and gods suppressed in a recent new major holy culture that is against possession and occult summoning. And how these two sides mix and compete with a array of politics around them pulling on their loyalties

What effect does possession have on someone? Is it a fusing of different personalities? Is it someone surrendering themselves to the spirit or god in return for fulfilling some kind of bargain? Is it two minds sharing the same body? How does it work?

A fusing of urges and desires and general binding archetype to a person, becoming a avatar of that primal power and acting out its will while furfuling the possessed goal. A inner beast, a greater demon pushing them.

With the Shaviade as the gate keepers who birth these powerful spirits into the world

That sounds pretty cool. So why are these people against possession and spirit magic? Is it because they can't control themselves or are really destructive? Or is it just a purely religious matter?

Unchecked rampant wild vicious lust and a older brutal style of rule. It makes people act as deviant beasts. But it is useful

But out in the wild lands and less civilized area's, where stuff like food and security are of much greater concerns that vague idea's on politic's they embrace this older brutal style of rules wholeheartedly out of survival. Adding a whole other level to the conflict as it become less two rival religions and more cities versus rural people. Civilization versus barbarians. Lots of fun stuff to explore.

Indeed, or even rural cities vs protected inner urban areas. A kingdom under assault by a rival realm turns to the Old Ways for survival even at the cost of heresy
