blackdeathgr Posted April 12, 2020 Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) Somewhere at the palace of Oleon... - Don't you think that there is a lot of fuss these days about Lotii and Carnites searching for something at El Oleonda? - Yes, our sailors, merchants and spies have already informed me about that. - So what do you think they are after? - Word is that they both believed a story told by the natives of the island that once, a great empire ruled them from afar. They had even managed to establish their customs at El Oleonda too. One narrative from the natives elders, goes that they practiced the fine art of "gold dumping". Let me explain this to you. Whenever they heard a volcano errupting, or felt an earthquake or their astronomers told them so, they were dumping massive quantities of golden items as offering to their serpent-like gods. And because they wanted that gold to stay put, they were dumping it at spots they called "burning lakes". These were nothing more than what we call hot springs in Oleon. So hot though that no man could dive and come back alive. That's how they secured their gold offerings. However, it appears that both Lotii and Carnite scientists have come up with an ointment that prevents a man from burning (at least extensively) when diving at these hot springs, and now they are both after all those riches at various hot springs of El Oleonda at first and of other islands later. - We must steal that ointment recipy. It could become handy for various nefarious purpuses(tm)... - I am already on that... (insert evil laughter) - Vive le Roi! - Vive le Roi monsieur! Spoiler Edited April 13, 2020 by blackdeathgr Quote
Khorne Posted April 12, 2020 Posted April 12, 2020 The whole build comes together really nice. I like the use of the ice cream cones for the bubbling like. You can feel the heat coming from the lake . The vegetation and ruins worked out really well! Quote
LM71Blackbird Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 An overall beautiful build with a great ambiance. The ruins and the pond are superb! Quote

Let the REAL monkeys take over! You know, the old and reddish brown ones that can handle a gun or a sword! Quote
