A Guide to Living in Pieria
Or What to Do When You've Been Kidnapped By Gods and They Want You to Snog
By: Eames
Welcome to Pieria! The bad news? That subtitle is true. The good news? There were some unlucky bastards who got here a little before you, and one has written a survival guide.
1. The gods are fighting to rule and want you to do the mattress mambo to give them power. Are you laughing? You shouldn't be. This is real, and I'm sure a god will show up and tell you the same, should you need them to. And don't tell them to prove that they're a god. We'd like to keep the soul-sucking total to one. They are the Greek gods: Aphrodite (Goddess of Love and Beauty ((Praise her.)) ), Dionysus (God of Wine and Revelry), Apollo (God of the Sun, Art, Medicine, a whole bunch of shit), Hades (God of the Dead ((SOUL SUCKING!!!!!)) ), and Hestia (Goddess of the Hearth ((Think chaste thoughts.)) ). And if you're going to be flirty or... an accidental orgasm happens... try not to embarrass the attendants.
2. You're in a town called Pieria. No, you can't escape. Yes, people have tried. Something happens, but I'll let you find out on your own. Remember that this is ANCIENT Greece. No air conditioning, chitons for clothing (unless you come see me for modern clothing, call Eames at A Stitch in Time ;) ), and a public bath house. Yep. You're going to either have to bathe with everyone, or shell out some cash to get a private bath.
3. Speaking of cash, the attendants will give you some, along with a communication device (IMPORTANT!), and a map (Also important! It has your house marked on it). The communication device can be used to text, take video, or take pictures (Please remember to warn for explicit photos in case the other is working).
4. Yes, you probably will have to work. There are a number of shops to choose from: A bakery, pubs, butcher, tailor, etc. Or you can save up your money and create your own business. And, well... there is another benefit for the train in the tunnel. Chug that locomotive and you, too, could earn rewards (other than an orgasm, that is), like a bit of pocket change or knowledge.
5. You can wait to have sex, but eventually, the gods may put a bounty on you, believe it or not. The townspeople also don't seem to be appalled by public displays of affection, from any gender with any gender.
That's about it. Be kind to one another, make friends, and try not to leave a mess in the bath house ;)
