Changing my vote from C to A not that it's really going to matter. Traversing the Mediterranean would be neat, but Diog has said that the technology level isn't there yet!

Guys, Uncle might see our bleeding head and cut hair and think Jalitha attacked us. He probably doesn't know her well. Instead, G. Because running for his mother isn't something that's going to get a four-year-old in trouble, and she might be able to calm her husband down/realize it was a mistake. I think our father's just gonna shove us out of the way and keep hitting Jalitha if we try and deal with this ourselves, because we're FOUR. Hell, it might even make him angrier.

FoxTerrier posted:Eh...yeah, but in fairness, Jalitha did pull a seriously dick move cutting our hair when she knew it was prohibited in the faith of the village. The whole thing was a bit Edgardo Mortara for my taste. Absolutely we need to keep her from being beaten again, but I don't feel any reason we should avoid crying out to our god on her behalf. Well, that gives an interesting perspective to things. Still, let's give Jalitha the benefit of the doubt for now, since we're, you know, four.

SerSpook posted:I think it's already being done like this, though I'm not sure so I'll mention it in thread. If it really mattered, and you were trying to compile a list like this, it would be most logical to assign first place votes eight points each, second place votes 7 points each, and so on and so forth, and then add them all up and write the list based on total sum of each.

A. I think we should tell Jalitha that we'll go with her, but plead with her to stop the strangers from attacking the villagers. Say "No, not cannibals!" to the strangers. The worst thing that can possibly happen here is a full-scale bloodbath between the strangers and the men of our village, which I think is about to happen. If us going with them means that they'll take off with us and Jalitha and leave the rest of the villagers alone, we should do that. If we don't do something to calm the situation down right now, things are going to get really, really ugly. I'm not voting for this because I want to just ditch our people, I'm voting for it because I think it's the best chance of not getting them all killed.

"Maybe makes the kidnapping less violent" is a good enough point in of itself. Unless Papa can literally summon Asherah to destroy the strangers (on land!) they have the weaponry to kill everyone currently here, and still take us with them. If we go with them voluntarily, at least for the moment, Jalitha may not tell them to kill the entire village to get to us.

Welp, Shushem is dead. We know the stories of our people, but can't perform any rituals beyond grinding some powders. Our people may commit ritual cannibalism, or may not. The other villages will send another priest, probably. Priests of Asherah have real power. Jalitha is almost certainly our actual mother. You know what, I think we should go with her. A Our father was an abusive rear end in a top hat who terrorized the whole village, and people have been lying to us our entire lives. I say we go with the only family we have left.

Meta-gaming a little bit, one reason I want our character to leave (and I think "leave with the person he should have the intelligence to realize is his mother" is a valid reason for an eleven year old to go with her) is because we now know our village is in reach of far more advanced societies. If we can't figure out how to prepare our village for contact with them, the whole village is going to be eventually doomed, as their idea of diplomacy is "wave spears at outsiders and scream at them to leave.". I see us as the person in the best position to someday protect our home village from harm, by learning the ways of the strangers and finding out what they want, learning their language so that we can communicate, and maybe bringing metal or other useful things back someday. If we stay in the village, we may become a powerful fish-priest, but our father was a powerful fish-priest and he still got killed by the strangers. We need to learn about the outside world, because I think the world of the village is about to permanently get a lot bigger.

The poem is nice and all, but there's no goddamn way we're going to be able to spit that out in a foreign tongue or have Jalitha translate it. ...let's save it for later, howbouts?

A RICH WHITE MAN posted:How about a Disargeria/SerSpook combo? Changing my vote to this. Simple and to the point. But seriously, guys, our character is 11, not 5. Nor is he an idiot. Saying something that will piss off the incredibly powerful person in front of us from whom we have no defense is idiotic, even if it's what we'd like to say to him. Discretion is the better part of valor, and all that.

dyzzy posted:: try to explain to Danal that we are going to investigate the sound and that he should stay back at a safe distance. If our vocabulary isn't good enough, just contrive an adventure reason. That way, if we get into trouble, Danal can get to the camp and rouse the men. I would worry that Danal will try to follow us anyway.
