Thanks, I'm glad you like it. Making this map has made me realize something. We should be naming the continents, rivers, lakes and oceans for the second age.

I've been trying to think of a name for Gilgamesh's continent for awhile now but nothing is coming to me.
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

I don't really like the sound of that, or Urukians.

It would make sense story-wise to name the continent after something Gilgamesh had or did but land Gilgamesh doesn't really seem like a good name either.

Possibly.

What do you think of Eternus? Play on the word Eternal and it is related to both the Well of Eternity, the Divine Artifact that had the most impact on the races themselves and the fact that the races are continuing the survive after the loss of their pantheon?

I was thinking something like Alabastra or Aratasia for Crav's lands.

Neat, got a little pathos to that. I like it.

Go ahead and label my island Angora Man Ant. That's just what it was labeled in the official history document, added without the Watchman's knowledge. The Spymaster has a peculiar sense of humor.

Alabastra is a type of pottery, meant specifically for holding oils or perfumes.

I'll keep the title you came up with, I like it.

Eternus, the strong land in the center of the world.


It can just form naturally during the time before the Second Age as people stop referring to it as Gilgamesh's land.

Right.

I'll leave that to everyone good at names.

Well, let's see how it's gone so far:
In chronological order:
-All gods arrive
-Fight starts with Mik Hael as center of attention
-Fight stops thanks to Von Trapt
-Waverider reveals Water Candle
-Another fight almost starts with Mina as center of attention
-Mina destroys Water Candle
-Watchman passes out books

Anyone ready for another fight?

@Mik: Alright, so then as part of the Artifacts and Divine Artifacts getting lost in between the First and Second Age, I suggest that there have been a fight between a hero of Mina and a hero of Mik Hael that caused both to die and lose a Divine Artifact. I request that Mik Hael loses the divinity draining blade and in exchange you can choose one of Mina's Divine Artifacts.

The only exceptions are:
-Twin Fangs of Fire and Ice
-Yata-no-Kagami
-Kara-no-Magatama
-Mugen-no-Magatama
-Illusory Labyrinth

Those five are the exceptions because they're several kilometres below the surface and will be sealed off within a week of the meeting.

I'd prefer no more fights for now.....they tend to drag on too long.

I don't actual mean that we'd narrate out the fight, just mention it as something that happened during the time between the two ages. Like so:

Mina looked out at the bluffs in the direction of Mik Hael's lands. How long had it been since both she and Mik Hael had lost a hero and a Divine Artifact each in what had started out as simply a duel for fun? There had been no trace left of either combatant after the fight, nor had they been found by Waverider, or so she'd said, but either way it had been a loss for both of them.

See what I'm talking about?
