  • Elizar met with Sinchi Roca, during which borders were discussed and local politics. The English people are very curious to learn more about their eastern friends. Already a new meeting is beign planned were both tribes will learn more about each other.

    • Recently an emissary visited us from a far barbarian tribe and wondered how can we have so many "inventions". Our "scientists" must be really talented.. Ha!, Scientists? thinkers?.. what an absurd concept.. why would we spend our time thinking, using our inferior brain when the wisdom of the Gods can be ours. All the knowledge brought to us by the shamans who in their dreams reach the Gods and learn their secrets. The more we worship them the more powerfull we become.
      We have heard others are building "libraries" to collect and enhance their knowledge.. we have similar things as we are also recording and collecting the teachings of the Gods, we keep these records at the shrines, and just now we are celebrating the built of a Great Shrine, a Great Library, if you will...

      • The celebrations of the new shrine lasted for weeks, Chief Shekhar, the son of the God held them across the country.
        Meanwhile in the Moontower in his slumber the Godking Sha'tur watches his people and his land with great staisfaction. "everything goes as planned.."
        Suddenly his sight is clouded a vision comes to him from a far away land. A moment later an otherwordly cry can be heard, the celebrating people are shocked in pain.

        "Hatssog!! You Fool who thinks can play god.. BEWARE as you made a true God angry today.."

          They walked out of the city
          To the river
          There was a deep canyon
          Hastog stopped next to the dept
          He raised his arm
          And yelled: "Make them PAY!"
          Everyone raised their arms: "Pay"
          Hastog: "Pay!"
          Everyone:"Pay!"
          Then Hastog jumped.

          The Oracle of Media
          Was built by the Persians.
          Exactly there where Hastog had left them
          A place to communicate with Hastog
          The Persians asked
          He answered them
          From the world of the gods




          Hastogianism was founded
          In St. Petersburg
          The city that was converted to Persia
          By Hastog himself
          People prayed to Hastog
          And worshipped him
          The Heavy Hairy God
          Who had left them

          People prayed in St. Petersburg
          Now named "Hastogsburg"
          "O thy hairy one!" some said
          "O thy heavy one" others prayed
          "Hairy one!"
          "Heavy one!"
          "Hairy one"
          "Heavy one"
          Riots broke out
          "He's the HAIRY one!"
          "No he's the HEAVY ONE!"
          People were killed.
          Especially those from Persepolis
          Their way of worshipping Hastog would be known as "Heavy Hastogianism"
          Their religious symbol had became
          The golden heavy body

          Those from Hastogsburg continued
          To name him "They Hairy One"
          Their way of worshipping Hastog would be known as
          "Hairy Hastogianism"
          Their religious symbol had became
          The black twisted hair







          Missionaries were sent to the Russians and the Britannians
          To tell them to worship Hastog!
          The Heavy or The Hairy
          Soon all the world would know about Hastog!
          And all will worship him
          In one (hairy) or the other (heavy) way!

          • The History channel Special on Korzan.

            The people of Korzan followed their Despotic leader loyally for millenia after millenia. When he called for volunteers to go look beyond the reaches of Korzan into the wilds, they gladly accepted and went forraging .

            First to the West where they eventualy settled on the coast and did learn all about the sea and begun building what was to become Korzans largeast port. The western province soon began expanding itself. Farms were built and many many cottages built for the people.

            The passage to the north through the jungles was complete and the people of the Northen Province celebrated and begun the tradition of being the largest number of volunteers in the Korzan armies. Training of the people begun at an early age as the jungles still surrounded them and many were sent to keep the path clear. The northern provinces invented wheeled machines they called Chariots and these allowed for faster travel. More land was explored.

            To the far north more couragous Korzans built a new city to watch over the strange people to the north. They strangers across the water refused to speak to the Korzans. Perhpas language was a barrier. Despite many attempts of picture drawing and other signals, the people to the north would not answer.

            So the people of Korzan built a Fort to the far north. It was built to monitor these far northen peoples. Around the northern fort settlers did arrive and so the Border Provinces were given their own Governor to oversee all.

            The four governors did meet regularly to discuss issues with the Despot. And the Despot did oversee all.

            More land was discovered to the East and the Despot again called for volunteers to head that way. The Korzan army did clear all the black Skinned people from lands.

            To the West lay more land across the waters and the Despot did send his newly formed navy in that direction. His orders to his new Admiral :

            "Go seek out all that is out there. The strange people to the North refuse to speak to us. The first visitors to our lands according to our records were from the West, so we must now go find them and see if they will commune with us. Perhaps they will not ignore us once we walk on their dirt.

            And so began the long exploration phase of Korzan history. The Navy sent many vessels out to the West over the next few centuries, many did not return from their voyages and so the Western Province did set up a memorial in the Port for all the lost sailors.

            In the words of the latest Despot

            "Our navy is truly the finest example of our peoples endevours. I beleive one day their efforts will be rewarded when they find the strange people of the West with the flag of the Red Cross.

            • A voice from the far future ...

              I met a traveller from an antique land
              Who said: Two fat and hairy legs of stone
              Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
              Half sunk, a shatter'd ugly visage lies, whose sagging frown
              And hairy lip, and sneer of arrogant divinity
              Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
              Which yet survive, stamp'd on these lifeless things,
              The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
              And on the pedestal these words appear:
              "My name is Hastog, king of kings:
              Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
              Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
              Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
              The lone and level sands stretch far away.

                        • As Alexander lay in his bed he had a dream similar yet different then the ones he had before. This time he in the ruins of what looked to be a Persian city. He looked around and saw the bodies of Persian men being tied to horses and ripped in half, Persian women being beaten and rapped to death while they watched their mates being ripped in half, and the children where divided boys where taken away to the edge of a cliff where they where decapitated and pushed into the man made pit filled with the rotting bodies of Persian axmen. The young girls then where taken away but Alexander could not see where they where taken to. He walked around witnessing the horrors, which were occurring before his eyes. He though to himself, "Who could do such a thing to innocent people?" He looked around some more until he saw one of the soldiers holding up a flag he had never seen before. He then awoke his body cover in sweat. He looked up and before him stood is youngest son Marcus.

                          Marcus's body was drenched in blood and in his hands was his father's battleaxe. Alexander was in shock he asked Marcus what had happened and Marcus said nothing. Alexander ran to Marcus and again asked what had happened. Marcus again said nothing instead he pushed Alexander down to the ground and raised the axe over his head. With tears in his eyes Marcus said "Forgive me father, it is God's will," and with that he chopped off Alexander's head.

                          Word spread quickly of what Marcus did, murdering his brothers, sisters, mother, and Alexander. Riots broke out but Marcus quickly quieted them. To show the people of Britannia that he was not like his father he killed three thousand Britannians at random and enslaved the rest of the population. God proclaimed him leader of Britannia; at least that is what the Jewish order told everyone. And since the Jewish order was law the people followed without question.
