“High five!”

Today I
traveled to the Middle Of Nowhere. Next time I'll try to remember to
get a souvenir for you.
Destiny Gets
Lazy
Entrusted with
the fates of people Destiny is a god who determines the course of
lives. For eons she sat on her throne and worked her magic and
thought long and hard about the cause and effect for every single
person. She froze time and arranged the parts of people's souls so
they move in just the right ways so their hearts would lead them down
the right path.
Then the world
modernized. People became more than hunters and gatherers and society
became a mess. Destiny's devotion to her work collapsed around the
invention of the long distance communication and when people began to
have more free time and they married for love. Manipulating their
souls and hearts to move along the path she wanted became more
difficult when the people had freedom.
So she grew
lazy and gave up. She now stood at her throne with a bundle of dice
and throws it at the ground. The way it falls is how she sends her
magic to push the people along. Her job is to make a path for people
to follow and random emotional events to tug people fulfill her
obligation to guide the populace down some road. “If only the new
world wasn't so complicated!” is her excuse as she uses emotional
trauma to do her old work for her.
Though in the
modern world many hearts are still too free for Destiny's influence
to take them over.
