D23- Temple of the Leaping Oracle; 2-41 the Storm Shrine Sanctuary

 


While Dulöltü Rarch has been consolidating power among the Grippli in the temple, Ntib Götagshend had an encounter with a herald of the Stormlord. In achieving the Patronage of the Stormlord Ntib could finally make a stand in opposition to Rarch. While never in open rebellion to the High Priest of the Green-Eyed Prophesy, those loyal to Dulöltü could sense the growing rivalry. Bugsh Yeng ordered a permanent guard contingent posted at the settlement’s spawning pool to ensure no Polywog or Tadpole would be harmed in any unrest on the second level of the temple. While this ensured no Grippli openly criticized Rarch, it fostered a widespread civil resistance that desired to loosen Dulöltü’s grip on the citizens of Beg’carxi.
