Water from the underworld has made its way up to Olympus.

Small traces of water from the rivers of Lethe, Acheron, Cocytus, Phlegethon, and Styx, (although Phlegethon's flames are more prominent in torches around Olympus, rather than mixed with the water) have seeped into the water that runs through everything, from the baths to the water you drink. Contact with any of them will lead to a choice of the following effects:

Lethe's water will give you bouts of amnesia. How strong or how little it effects you is up to the player, and while it will eventually wear off, some characters may forget aspects of their past to as far as their own name.

Cocytus's water will make your moods unstable for a short duration of time. You will feel normal one moment, and be wailing in misery the next, and it will come and go until it finally wears off.

Phlegethon's flames are unique all their own. As Phlegethon was a lover of the goddess Styx, but she was consumed by his flames until they were reunited as rivers, a slight burn from this flame will have you longing for someone, regardless of who or what your mind locks on to.

Styx's water will spark a character to uncharacteristic or uncalled for anger, prone to fights or brooding. Unlike Cocytus', it will stay until the water completely wears off, instead of switching on and off.

Acheron's water is water of healing. Anyone who comes in contact with it will experience extreme euphoria, relaxation, nirvana, such and such. It is a character's regular good mood amplified up to eleven. You might consider taking an actual walk on sunshine.

This will last for a week. Be careful, everyone!

The stars have been stolen from the sky.

Who could have done this? Aside from the moon, the night sky is barren, leaving sailors who chart their courses by the alignment of the stars without hope to navigate, leaving astronomers perplexed. As responsible as the gods are, they have entrusted the new gods with a simple task: Restore the stars in the sky.

But how does one put stars in the sky? Stars are beautiful glimmers that make up the canvas of the night. You may create a star with any means you can think of yourself-- a beautiful jewel can be put into the sky by your hand. Capture droplets of water and create a milky way of stars. Or create yourself in pictures, your sign, so that your people know that you are being watched over. Or be immature.

This festival of stars will last for a week, and respond to this post with the pictures or symbols your characters will be putting in the night sky, or just if they'll be participating. The sky is not even the limit.
