Not very long after this, the creators decided that the road they had built to lead apprentices to their
temple was dull, and they feared that many apprentices would lose interest along the way. So they
sent the malevolent and omnipotent goddess tispt, who is known to some by another name, to rebuild
the road. So tispt and her divine servants tore down the old road, and built a new road filled with many
flashing lights and shiny objects in order to hold the fleeting attention of the apprentices. And they also
placed upon the new road a marketplace where free amusements could be found, and also maps to
other such marketplaces. The apprentices rejoiced at this, for the creators has never before placed any
emphasis on the amusements. New lands in the Realm of the discussion groups were also built, these
for giving aid to the apprentices in the areas of their studies. And the peoples of the Realm found these
works of tispt humorous, and they scoffed at them at first, but they had forgotten what it is like to be a
young apprentice. And the toils of tispt were successful, and all worked as it was intended, and the
road became traveled by many apprentices.
Legends of the Discussion Groups: "The Meeting"
by Author Unknown [5:41, 12/23/01]
And it came to pass that the gentle and naive subject, Lalu of the CAS-Votaries Gild, requested the
honour of the malevolent and omnipotent goddess tispt's presence at a chance encounter, high atop
Mount Texas. And the goddess tispt did consult her wise counsel, goddess High-D (with visage
terrible and mischievous), who did advise that such an encounter might compromise the ancient tee-ay
code of secrecy of selfdom. The goddess tispt avowed the truth of the words her co-goddess had
spake, but alas, she was not wholly swayed by the pronouncement of her wise, yet obstinate, counsel.
Thus ensued a longsome deliberation twixt the two obdurate goddesses.
At long last, a resolution was realized, harsh and stern though it were, that no mortal would ever
contemplate the countenance of the leaders of the empire of tee-ay in the temple in which they dwelt.
Verily, the goddess tispt did decree to the gentle and naive Lalu, and to all of his guileless supporters,
that no such encounter should ever take place, for such a meeting of mortal man and everlasting
sovereign would surely result disastrous. "Go forth, and be merry in your ignorance of the ways of the
leaders!" ordained the goddess. "You are but mere lackeys and shall never know the ways of the
sovereign rulers!"
But the gentle Lalu proved not so naive, and his pursuit of the encounter perdured, that he might one
day savour, if but for a moment, the sweet wisdom and phantasy and goodwill that floweth, as a
deluge, from the summit of Mount Texas. And his imploring was like a psaltery upon the goddess's
ears. And the resistance of the malevolent goddess did weaken at the insistence of Lalu. And anew
did she seek the counsel of the goddess High-D, and again did the goddess High-D determine that
mere mortals would ne'er able bear the ribaldry and sapience of the sovereign rulers. But the
malevolent and omnipotent goddess tispt was not so easily convinced this tyme. And a debate
ensued.
Yet the hour of Lalu's arrival drew nigh, and still the goddesses had not reached unfaltering agreement.
Hour after hour did they wraxle with the idea, and yet they came to no resolution. Yea, even now it is
rumoured that the deliberation persists, and the question of whether the two - mortal and goddess -
ever did meet is left to the annals of history.
