For those who don't know the story of the annual ritual human sacrifice to Yog-Sothoth at Valentines, this is historical lore. It was February 2017 just before Valentine's Day that we discovered an annual ritual of the Shubs that required a human sacrifice to Yog-Sothoth. We had only taken over governing Monria the end of November in 2015, and were at the beginning of establishing the new colony.
We learned that Yog-Sothoth is an Outer God who knows all and sees all, and a contiguous entity with all space and time, embracing the past, the present and the future. Yog-Sothoth mated with Shub-Niggurath, another Outer God, and gave birth to twin deities, Nug and Yeb. Nug sired Cthulhu, but it wasn't in the conventional way. It was through parthenogenesis, a natural form of asexual reproduction where the development of embryos occur without fertilization. Cthulhu is considered a Great Old One, but not a God.
Pleasing Yog-Sothoth has the potential of bringing knowledge of many things, but to learn too much also has the potential for courting disaster. Unfortunately, to favor this God requires the ultimate sacrifice of a human, or eternal servitude. So far, no one targeted in our community for this annual human sacrifice has been captured, and neither of them have submitted to eternal servitude.
We all know that Decca is working with Yog-Sothoth to uncover the codes in the Necronomicon that will reveal where the 3 Dark Mages are hidden on Toulan, but she delights in taking part in the annual Valentines human sacrifice. This year, she is front and center and was allowed to choose the sacrifice herself. Normally this is something that Shub-Niggurath does, but since Decca was a failure at converting Anhithe (Ant) to the dark side at Halloween with her stunt in the Monria boxing ring, she is being given a chance to redeem herself. She also invited several community members who have achieved Elder God Robes from Initiate to Priest/Priestess to witness the sacrifice thinking they are her new Cult of Shut'thend followers ... not.
While everyone was focused on the sacrifice altar, standing off to the side and out of sight was a Cultist not seen before holding an orb of some sort that appeared to have engravings. An ominous figure cloaked and hooded, but the face was very clear. There are those in Cthulhu's realm who can shapeshift, so it's difficult to determine whether this was an evil entity or not. Just as a reminder, the Elder Gods are not our enemies, but rather allies who support our efforts.
Question is ... is this a friendly Elder God working against evil, or a new evil entity that we should fear ...

It's important that we continue to stand our ground and not let this year's annual Valentines sacrifice be a win for Decca -- join our effort against the dark side.

RULES ON HOW YOU WIN
- Solo Hunting, Team Hunting
- you can only win one Solo and one Team hunting prize

- if you win the highest, you are not eligible for either the first or last lowest global prizes
- the person who wins the first lowest global is not eligible to win the last lowest global
- if you get the first lowest global, you can continue mining toward getting the highest

- ---------- would win the first lowest global prize
