Day 2: Athena's Decision

The fighting was beginning to get to Brandonb. He was shaking and shivering huddled on a large rock on the outskirts of the beach. "How can I go on? It's a complete meleé out there! There's no order! I just... I just... There's only one way to win... to sacrifice myself! That's it! It's madness, but I must do it." He rose and walked steadfastly to the nearest temple, where he would properly sacrifice himself, but his steps were halted. As if his mind was emptied of all his worry, he began to think with a clear head. He looked across his surroundings and saw the battlefield as a chessboard that was still begging to be used.

Bb felt the warm clasp of a hand on his shoulder as he surveyed the beach. It was the Goddess he has prayed to earlier in the day. Athena in the flesh had appeared to him as he had asked and all was well. He regained his composure. "I see now that a sacrifice today would be a waste. Thank you my Goddess Athena! Your Wisdom has set my path straight and to the quick. I now know what I must do. I must prepare an Offering to ______. Excuse me as I make haste!"

Athena allowed a slight grin and then vanished, no one else having seen her presence. Bb hurried to make a decision of who he would grant an Offering. "Shall I ask the Celestial Apollo or the Swift Hermes?" All waited with impatience for his decision. He stood between the temples of Apollo and Hermes. Which would he enter?

We await Brandonb's Offering.

In the meantime Night 3 is upon us.

Editor's Note: Poseidon would have been the Sacrificial God had it come to that.

ok, Trojans - let's go ahead with the plan :)

* Paris should save me

* Helen should nullify me

* Aeneas should kill Brandonb

* Priam should guess the above three actions

* Ares should not act

I'll probably die tonight, so I hope someone else is ready to step up - hopefully someone else that was semi-outed today

The Recruitment of Apollo

Brandonb walked up the steps to Apollo's temple with the body of a Trojan warrior. He tossed the warrior down before the great statue of the Sun God and pierced the body's heart with his blade. Blood began to flow through the carefully carved design in the ground forming a seal. The symbol was of an archer piercing the Sun itself with an arrow of blood. When the blood filled the floor's engraving, the statue's eyes opened. Slowly the grey color began to take on a pinkish hew and it's head and neck began to twist as if thawing. The plaster shattered and Apollo emerged from the statue's remnants. Brandonb lowered his head, but Apollo lifted his gaze up to him by the chin. "Fear no more my child of Achaea. You have just gained a mighty ally."

Apollo emerged from the temple and conjured a large satchel. He removed a bow so large and powerful that only a God could loose an arrow from its divine rope. The bow and arrow sparkled in the sun's rays and Apollo launched a Sacred Arrow at Troy. The arrow pierced and set right at the top of Troy's palace, directly in the center of Priam's family crest. Priam fell to the ground holding his heart. His attendants all crowded him. "Back off you fools!" Priam shouted at them. "This is no wound a mortal can heal. I have just been marked by a God..."

Apollo spoke, not a shout, but it's voice carried across the entire land. "From this day forth, know that Apollo has joined the Will and Fire of Achaea, that he will summon and dispel the Sun you all count so dearly upon, and that he will annihilate Troy's existence from the land." The Achaeans all knelt to their new ally. The Trojans retreated to deliberate on this new matter. And Calchus whispered: "Strange that. I didn't see that coming..."

ALERT TO THE ACHAEANS!!! and Agamemnon in particular! Part 2

1. Tonight Diomedes should attack Frost.

2. Nestor should choose Diomedes

3. Menelaus should choose to save whoever the voice of the Trojans puts the hit against (Currently GC):P

4. Agamemnon should guess the three above actions. (So they all gain BTSC)

Odysseus should guess:

1. That Priam will guess one (choose one in particular) of the 4 above actions.

2. That Priam will guess one of the actions that the Trojan instructor has suggested.

3. That Priam will guess this current action that I am instructing.

(So that Priam will be all-round nullified if he tries to guess ANY of those actions. This is in order for all of the actions to go through safely without Priam learning any IDs OR recruiting anyone for BTSC OR realizing who successfully gained BTSC last night ;) )

It looks like BB's going to pay a visit to Hades... :P

we shall see....

I understand that I may die tonight for the sake of organizing my army. But please do not fret fellow Achaeans, it will be my honor.

quite noble Bb. Glad to see we have honorable teammates on our side. I'm in agreement that the Achaeans should follow Bb's advice so agamemnon cna help us all to coordinate our nightly action as well as to be able to coordinate a way to get Calchus since we already have Apollo.

The problem with openly organizing your Army is it ultimately turns into a WIFOM scenario. You say what your going to do, so the enemy counters those actions, but you'd be expecting that so you actually do something different, but the enemy knows that you know so they do something different, but you know they know that you know so you do the original actions, but they... :wacko:
