"The Primordial Witch" Falls

Just moments ago, Mr. Fool had issued a Divine Revelation, informing Alger that the seal on the Western Continent had loosened.

Dressed in papal robes and wearing a silver-black mask, Alger immediately understood his mission.

Before long, God's Proxy Danitz strode in. "Your Holiness, the Church of Storms has sent an envoy bearing two gifts to congratulate you on becoming God's Proxy."

As he spoke, he held out a box made of white tin and presented it to Alger.

Alger gave a slight nod and made a gentle grasping motion toward the box. A storm immediately swept it up and carried it into his hand.

He slowly opened the container and saw a book bound in yellowish-brown parchment inside. On its cover was a line written in Elvish: Book of Cataclysms!

Though he had already suspected as much, Alger still felt dazed.

Soon, he asked Danitz, "What is the second gift?"

"A Ghost Ship called the Azure Avenger. It has already docked at the harbor."

Alger was slightly taken aback. He immediately went to the window and indeed saw an additional ship in the harbor. It did not look particularly large and seemed somewhat old.

He calmly instructed God's Proxy Danitz, "Send a reply to the Church of Storms on my behalf, thanking them for their gifts."

Then Alger added, "God's Proxy, I have received Mr. Fool's Divine Revelation. I will soon depart to complete a task He has assigned me. I may not return for several years."

"A Divine Revelation?" Danitz was somewhat stunned. How had he not received one?

Alger continued, "Mr. Fool is about to enter slumber, but that will not affect your ability to receive responses through prayer.

"After I leave, the church's affairs will be handed over to Elder Derrick Berg of New Silver City.
