gently caress you dad. gently caress you. All he managed to instil in us was a capacity for violence. His last lesson will be to teach us what it feels like to kill and be glad about it. Not because we've killed someone who abused us but because we decided that the world is a better place without him and that is was our actions that removed him.

Basically the world is a cruel place and if we want to make any difference to it we need to learn how to make hard decisions by judging our father and finding him wanting.

Since Dad obviously seems to represent Asherah in this dream; E + H

Catch his hand; We survived his hunger, thus proving ourselves worthy. We are now a man. "We are the master now".

I'm also hoping our denial that he's our father will lead to a "Oh Ekindel, but I AM!

e: All the stuff that just happened was also possibly a version of our peoples manhood test- 'Survive Asherahs Hunger', of course if that was the case then the actual test probably involved 2 people fighting to the death on a boat, the victor either consuming or sacrificing the loser, or something. And if so we probably would have had to fight our Dad.

Guys our dad knows that snails are hermaphrodites and there are no women snails. He's just making stuff up to have a reason to hit us. Now is the time we can call him on it and make rear end in a top hat dad answer for all of his violence.
Call him out on it and ask deliberately that if he knew then why would he hit us.
YOU ANSWER NOW rear end in a top hat DAD

edit: we can spear him after

Wait, poo poo.

This makes sense.

Our people have a manhood test and we can invoke the hunger of Asherah.

...The cannibalism thing is probably from that.

Frankly, I don't know anyone who likes Chinese bronzes, but I have one of the finest collections in the country.
drat, 120+ posts in a couple hours, missed the last one :( (would have voted B, for the record; Og/Enkindel has gone beyond material concerns, in the moment he trucks with supernatural forces. He didn't believe the ground was going to kill him, he certainly doesn't believe he can't walk any further.)

Anyway, I suppose I'll vote E here. Just E, don't know if we get multiple votes, but I dunno, quadruple E or whatever if we do.

We've just been rejected by our old life, the hunger tried to devour us, and it terrified us beyond belief, but our descent was arrested, and a wall put between us and our beloved ocean. The Hunger was not slain, but it can no longer reach us, if we turn from it. Our father may represent the Hunger here, but we've felt its full force, and its representative pales in comparison; it can no longer frighten us, it has nothing to teach us, and it cannot reach us. The Hunger rejected us, shown that there is no coexistance, and in doing so has lost its hold upon us.

Arrest its hand, prove to it, and to ourself, that we are beyond its reach.

OPTION K: Say nothing and be hit. We can take it.

Enkidel has survived so much in a single day. He faced the hunger of Ashera as a mere mortal and was able to resist. Fish-dad can do nothing to us. Stabbing him draws no blood, so there is nothing we can do. All he can do is strike us or summon the lightning. We've survived the lightning, and all the smacks and punches ever brought were shame. We know, now, that El is stronger than Ashera. Even if Ashera is still our God, El seems to be our best bet in our present situation. Even if El declines us, we know we are strong.

We are Enkidel, and our resolve knows no equal.
