 We need to get these people away from the village before things get worse. The tooth is our birthright (maybe) and it could be magic so we should take it. If we go with them, we can help control the narrative once they get back to their civilization. Our people aren't savage cannibals that practice dark magic, they are peaceful fisherfolk and our dad was a dick. We likely weren't the first fisherfolk village they visited, so they know our people aren't all monsters. The best thing we can do for our people, both in this village and everywhere else, is promote the idea that our dad was a dick. Dad was an evil slave-owning sorcerer everyone in our village was afraid of, but now he's gone so they have no quarrel with our people.

H and F. E gets us killed, D gets Jalitha killed when she chases after us. Also a side of G: As we flee, choke back the tears and pray to Asherah and then to El to protect us, Jalitha, and the people of the village.

This hasn't really been mentioned by anyone, but Jalitha has a basket of pearls, likely the ones we dived for. I bet pearls are why they came trying to open trade too. We have a pretty marketable skill in pearl diving, and the king may allow us to keep some (or all) of the pearls if he's the honorable sort. Though Jalitha may have offered them to him in exchange for being rescued. Either way, we might be able to have a pretty decent life where we go.

drat, I knew those murderers were going to try and steal us away, right in front of our people, who the hell do they think they are? This King guy seems pretty potent though, don't know if it's power, or the armor he was wearing, but he certainly stood up to the lightning pretty well. That being said, we have an obligation to our people now; another priest will be sent, Dad said, but until then we need to keep his poo poo safe. We've also been traumatized, we've just watched our father and the supreme voice of authority that we know cut down in front of us, we'd best run for the only other thing we know keeps us safe! G: Grab the tooth and run for the ocean! Take solace in the waves, as we've done through our youth!

Grab the tooth, go with mom All of you advocating to stay on the idea that that's the only way we get fish powers consider this: Jalitha could have never washed up on shore if Asherah didn't want it to happen. If he really didn't want this foreigner, who would cause chaos among his people, defile his young followers by cutting their hair, bring murderers into the tribes presence, he could have just gobbled her up. He let Jalitha live, and put her on the shore of our village for a reason. The "a storm is coming" could have referred to this whole fiasco happening as it is right now, a message that things would seem frightening and dark but that it was what was meant for us. Perhaps our fish god wants for us to leave, taking an artifact of his power with us as a tool we will use in fulfilling our great destiny!

At best the tooth pierces the Kings now exposed flesh and Dad's essence flows through the tooth into the King and he explodes in a visceral blast of gore and our Dad is standing in his place coated in the guts of our enemies and continues to blast people to pieces with lightning.

H. Yeah we need to gtfo, the tooth. Well it's a cool tooth, and we should use it to shave our head at some point before tossing it into a ravine. Anyone voting E has such a case of Stockholm syndrome it just hurts to read.

Voting D. to the beach/ocean AND GRAB THE TOOTH. I don't think we can fight worth a drat. We should definitely run. Whatever we do, we should grab the tooth. Also voting F: Time to cry. Seriously, we aew ten years old. This poo poo is too heavy. It was nice to see our dad pull some legitimate sorcery. He should have been teaching us to shoot lightning bolts instead of how to collect drat sea shells. And to all ye of little faith: Don't you want to see our god's wrath wreck poo poo up? I hope he comes in person. QUESTION: Where did the basket of pearls come from? Is it normal for there to be a basket of pearls lying in a hut?

You know what? That's actually good news for the village. Ancient sea-cultures knew about tsunamis and were aware that giant receding tides = about to get swamped. Changing my vote to DON'T KILL ANYONE Also: [18:53] <somerandompaui> "Yes, the sky giants give you shiny metal arms but the fish god gives you lightning powers." [18:54] <maxhush> well, if there were turtle gods maybe people wouldnt be jumping on the traitorwagon, lol [18:54] <somerandompaui> "So your got just makes you a lightning rod" [18:54] <Reign> yeah what sort of loving sky gods let their enemies toss lightening around [18:54] <Reign> thats Their poo poo [18:54] <Reign> obviously the sky giants are incompetent [18:54] <ADarkerPorpoise> Spare the lightning rod spoil the child with lightning powers [18:54] <maxhush> this is conclusive that jalithas stories about lightning are wrong, and our dads oneswere right

and It is a decent time to break down and cry. However, that giant tooth is pretty awesome, and it'd be nice to have a (potentially magic-GPS tracking) memento of our childhood.

But for the chosen one of the Fish God? I doubt it. If anything The Big Fish will take it as a sign of our devotion and be more likely to spare us from the coming destruction. That's my theory, anyways.

F. Too freaked for H. Jorah is going to come after us. Do not greedily take the tooth, but take the tooth. For all we know, we are now the priest, powerless though we may be. Ok, fine, maybe we should take just a little taste of Dad to see what all this blood drinking is about. Just a taste! What's the big deal? Get the strangers away from the village with minimal delay. Going to the Ocean probably gets us chased and more people die.

Why would you vote to join the people who executed the priest of the sea god in order to escape the wrath of the sea god? Any force of nature is only going to wipe out the poison-bearing foreign demons and their betrayal sowing witch.
