Eons ago, a temple with ten divine statues sank into the sea and then were pulled into the mantle of the planet itself. Now they have come to life, trapped below the crust of the world. Only Nalani and Vykoria can plunge down a lava plume and guide these divines into the light, though a path no human has ever walked will be treacherous and full of dangers unknown to mankind.

Vykoria was resigned to her new god-name. She couldn't keep insisting at people and remain sane at the same time. She had even become resigned to gaining her godly assignments in strange and unusual ways.
This one was a vision while she was in the middle of growing her worshipper's crops. In one moment, she was unfurling leaves to the sun, in the next, she was watching a temple sink into the ground and then into an immense pocket of lava. In that boiling sea of rock, the ten statues within the temple were crying out for a rescue. She got the impression that the temple had sunk a long time ago, and it was only now that the gods in question were able to reach her.
She came back to the same moment that the vision whisked her away from. Nice to know that these things didn't interrupt her work, but they could have warned her. Nevertheless, she had an urgent plea for help. Vykoria eased her powers away from the field, only explaining, "I am summoned elsewhere."
