I… I’ve further toyed with the idea of peace. It’s not that I’ve gone mad from the Old God or anything. Yoth-Atal has been silent for years after all. Neither have I started actually taking Tethys’s continued… now, very bored questions on whether I’d accept the Old God’s rule seriously. But the fact is, in all of the brief wars, the conflicts I’ve fought in before I started fighting the kelpies in earnest, there could always be a settlement, some kind of way to force the other party to come to terms.
This is impossible with the kelpies. They will not give up. We can only kill and kill them. If the war continues like this, well, it will have no end. And the problem is that we can’t attack where the kelpies live, the deep ocean, in depths so deep that I wouldn’t be able to descend into them without some difficulty.
I need to launch a decisive blow at Tethys and her Primal God creator. A master stroke to end all master strokes. Something she cannot recover from and will hurt her, badly.
