Coriena City of Opportunity

"I'm terrified you're thought of as a god here Trezlan." Nidget was so happy for me, his jealousy was dripping from every word. We had moved beyond the docks and into the city proper, it was well built and fairly industrial, in a way it reminded me of Ronerawth (and it should since it was one of their projects).

"Well not the god of gods, just a god, more of a cult really, technically open worship is against the law, but since trying to squash a cult is very difficult they kind of just look the other way while people worship me, its great." Well it was great, we'll get to why it isn't a little bit later.

"And you know this despite never really leaving your continent how?"

"I get mail occasionally from followers over here requesting my wisdom."

"You have got to be joking."

"Nidget I never joke about myself being awesome, can't you just appreciate we're in a city not currently being exploded avoiding a war full of all those explosions?"

"No, because you're here and thats never a good thing."

"You wound me Nidget, you wound me."

"You know I was thinking about it I believe I have family in town here Trezlan, I recall getting a letter from an aunt or something." We had moved beyond the industrial parts and into a market place, Nidget started looking at streets and I started looking for well, cons to work out. We stopped outside of what appeared to be a bread shop.

"So meet back here in a week with grand stories of how we'll never return home?"

"Sure Trezlan I'm sure by then you'll be pursued by at least two different groups wanting to kill you."

"Oh ye of little faith Nidget." And so Nidget and I went our seperate ways. Me I was looking for my cult and a way to establish myself over here. He was looking for some family for some reason? I tell you its almost like he's not that committed to ripping people off! I guess stealing from people involves less emotional involvement, but where's the fun in that? The next entry will be a bit weird, because it'll be Nidget who writes it based on finding his relatives. Mine will be the one after etc etc. See thats the benefit of writing these things in the future I already know how things turn out before you do! Its awesome, well unless of course you're some me in the past through some weird quirk of time travel, than it will be considerably less awesome.
