How should Christians respond to the widening Gender Gap?

In the last decade, the gender divide between men and women has become wholly apparent in all levels of western society, and in the last five years what became apparent in the last decade has been cemented as fact in the cultural reality of everyone who finds themselves living in a western nation. Distinctions and radical divides have been drawn in the sand and the solutions to the separation of the genders is not readily apparent. Today, Will, Sam, and Zander discuss how should Christians respond to the widening Gender Gap. Up+Out is a reader-supported publication.

Ep 2: The Right Honorable Melbim

In case you missed it, last session, our boys here showed up down in Rejlaz Rhekōlb, the site of a recent massive tragedy where hundreds of thousands of people died. It was all very cheery as they walked through a city full of standing corpses and tried not to touch them so that those corpses wouldn't disintegrate into a choking dust. Then, they met a guy named Ashtakrrok, who's about six foot seven, built like a brick house, and is now sort of in charge of the whole city, even though he doesn't really live there. He is the tutor of the now king, Jolar, and that guy's name was Ashtakrrok. And he took them down to see a suspicious rune in the depths of the palace grounds, where they took a tracing of it and are now on their way back up to the palace itself, for further investigation and sundry happenings.Up+Out is a reader-supported publication.

Ep. 11: The Battle of Nerhtan, pt. 2

In case you missed it in our last session, the plans were made for the defense of Nerhtan. Nyb’drum, having received an emergency approval for implantation within the capital, was not allowed to travel with Fisvénir up the coast, but our intrepid elderly Leylüdm was not dissuaded, joining up with the roughly 1000 soldiers on their way to the fight. In the meantime, the desperate defense of Nerhtan, through sacrifice and the growing pains of a novel set of game rules, managed to hold through until the very brink of their reinforcements’ arrival. However, another explosion rocked the city in advance of landfall and Bjōlan was left catching the first glimpse of a fresh wave of foes. And with that, you’re caught up for today’s episode of Umbalin & Oblivion. Up+Out is a reader-supported publication.

Ep 4: And in the end, we persevered.

In case you missed it in our last session, Bjōlan and Ūpŏnōr set off from the palace to the site of the collapsed ruin within the sewer system of Rejlaz Rhekōlb. Accompanied by a small dispatchment of soldiers, including an irascible old coot named Jōkund, they worked to clear the rubble from the ritual site and uncover the remains that Melbim had glimpsed on the other side; however, when a path was cleared, the body was gone and in its place they found a pack of hideous ghelmōrl, vicious little creatures that are basically a mouth with rows of teeth sitting on two scrawny legs and some bulging eyes jutting off either side. The party of eight was able to dispatch them with relative ease, if after a few nasty bites. Their task successfully failed, Ūpŏnōr convinced Bjōlan to do some cost-free shopping on the way back to the palace. After gathering some supplies, they returned and found that research does not progress very far in a matter of hours when you have to spend time restoring the texts you're reading along the way, even if you're the formidable trio of Nyb’drum, Fisvénir, and Ashtakkrok. The five of them went off to find Melbim in the palace to see what he had to say for himself when the body he claimed to be there was not to be found. Trouble was he’d gone and gotten himself stabbed in the back, alone in his room. Luckily, Ashtakkrok was able to revivify him with only a lot bit of blood being lost. Then, the accusations started flying, guards were dispatched, and Ūpŏnōr tried to break into Mokaro’s room, several times. Melbim did divulge that the body he saw had telltale markings of belonging to the shadowy Vapbian Brotherhood, but there were few answers to be had at the moment. In the end, it was decided that Melbim perpetuate the ruse that he had been killed, remaining hidden within the palace grounds, and Mokaro return to the Kisstaylnryd, as if to escape looming danger. The session ended with the party making their way into the palace grounds to meet for the first time with King Jōlahr. And with that, you’re caught up for today’s episode of Umbalin & Oblivion.
