Of course in refute.
1) Knowledge pf places never been is not intrinsic not locations that the girls have never explored. Knowledge of legends and myths, actions be characters of repute are available to ALL Layonarans. If you write into you bio that you were raised on Layoanara, which all should be, and have a decent enough lore most gms will fill you in on details of Legends and Myths as they arrive. Is it not a simple expectation that you as a normal person have understandings of snow white? Or little read riding hood? Or even Santa Claus. Of course you do. Common knowledge among people in a common world. This of course applies uniformly to all, those who have characters who are second generation or first generation Layonara Pc's. The girls might have had contact with some things that others dont know simply because of parentage, but on the other hand may well lack (eg: Xeen was a goddess of horticulture or something) in others.
Now Layonara is surely not a common world and as such some tales hold grains of truth, some might even be entirely true. In a world where dragons roam I guess catching Santa on Christmas Eve in your chimney wouldnt be such a big deal. As such many of the things that we take as fact as children to be disabused of later might on layo well be fact. That in itself is no reason to take what as told as any more or less true for these children as others.
Yet Eld does have a story, and yes she is free to tell her children of it. The same as she is free to tell every joe that works past ingame if she did feel like it. She wouldnt of course, and in actual unrealistic Layonaran fact Allie would never meet eld. Still a story of a parents life is most often given to the child. The same as others will have stories of family that come from parents and adults in there lives.
2)Stone/Laanela is not a god nor are there claims in any place to say he is such. I can refute little however since I myself am a player in that regard, pan is more qualified to answer. Yet to state that he is anymore/less than a once elemental bound now to Layonara is a misrepresentation. Nowhere in the bios is he claimed to be a god, nor anymore or less than eventually the weird of earth.
Regardless of what may be thought of Eld is a high level cleric and we cant deny that. That clerical post comes with duites and that actual event occured in game. Yet that actual event in fact had nothing to do with the church at all, though the girls PERCEPTIONS supplied that so called fact for them. It is actually untrue as are some of the things represented through juvenile sight. To accept all that as told is fact is something that surely is not good, and in the end I could havve detailed that Eld wasnt going for the church. Yet to to young minds everything she did have something to do with magic and her faith. Of course not true, much like children assuming here whenever daddy isnt home he is at work. That in itself is wrong yet a common young perception.
3)Well considering once people were considered adults at 13 and some people enter the Layonaran game at 16 or 17 with fully trained characters so Im not really sure what the point is here. Eld started as a full trained Pyrtchonite cleric at the early age of 16 moving to 17 odd, others start at 17 and some at 18. This is a fantasy world where alot of people like the pcs they play to start young. In that scheme of a youthful start as level one characters who can a mere few days later (weeks maybe a to three months in layonaran terms) sling fireballs from one puny missile im not sure where we are playing with such terms as "real" staggered development. In real life I start high school at 12 or 13, end at 17 or 18 and come in my case came out with a solid groundinig in english, physics, advanced math and calculus not to mention a few more. High school gives you relatively mid term unfocused view in RL..but the girls have had a focused curriculum, ending more with a directed learning solely on the crafts they specialise in. Of course Allie doesnt understand a whole buch aboud social interactions and the world around her as a cost to that, but that is the downside of a focused approach in her learning.
Tiny balls of flame not equivalent to a flare spell are kinda not a real huge thing, toys that dont set fire to your underwear arent what one would call a power plus.
Intuitive understanding of runes is a spellcraft skill and would start likely maxed for a level on character and keep being developed as any good cleric of Lucinda would. (sorry my replies are getting shorter but work is starting to get close now)
On the twins bond...Alasse never claimed to have cured her, in actual fact till this day she still believes Silly overslept again. The actual facts in the scenario are nebulous and open to speculation.
On the intution, we all have em and though I named it doesnt make it anymore than a hunch that all people get, high levels of wisdom supply frequently more accurate hunchs. On the exhaustion well to be honest that came from the sleep spell cast with the components of sand that lingered in her bathing suit from the beach...yep level one spells exhausted her because contrary to what is being discussed she isnt a demi god.
On the art and globes on the teacher, art is a representation of fact through eyes of the artist, Allies art is no different and to claim it is all perfect renditions of how it happened is much like claiming people exist the way that picasso painted some. They are representative of a view and artistic expression.
I guess the final note about Joe or someone else is held in Leanthars post here:
With all of that said and keeping in mind everything that they have done for the community should these two characters be approved? I don’t suggest they be approved for favoritism, which will never happen. What I do suggest is that we look at what these two have brought to the community in time, effort, emotions and a number of other things and reward them for doing that for us, for being there for us.
I am posting here since it is our place to refute and explain, it is really really IMPORTANT that you all know that as individuals and Gm's on the server we are not taking these things to note. I dont want anyone thinking that Pan or I are petty enough to abuse or positions over anyone having an opinion that may be different or adverse to our own.
