wethelostooc | Plot Wrap-up: The Lost and Found

With Zephyr's appearance in the Meadous, we bring the plot to an end.

As a summary for those who did not participate:

Zephyr found their powers running completely out of control, waxing and waning suddenly. They drew in people and objects they did not intend to the Meadous, and their family were left scrambling. New information about the gods, their culture, and their frailties have been scattered throughout the event, but have focused on Deei's and Zephyr's responses. Deei being Zephyr's uncle and one of the four gods who took charge of the Meadous while Zephyr was dealing with their power problems.

Deei provided the following:

None of the gods have ever seen anything like what's happening to Zephyr, even the eldest.
Gods are creatures of belief. They only exist with it and Deei has never heard of a god having too much of it.
Zephyr's powers (while out of control) have them acting like a magnet for people, as well as objects. Even before this, though, Deei noted that Zephyr's world seems to be accumulating things that once belonged to others around its edges.
One of the most serious offenses in god society is taking a member of another god's flock against their will.
Gods have artifacts, but they are more a product of a god using something with their powers than consciously created. Consciously channeling power into something isn't unheard of, but it's unusual.
Godling aspects do not usually manifest in a violent way, but Deei thinks some of what happened may be tied to Zephyr's aspect. He doesn't know how.
Godlings who have trouble with their powers are usually too weak because of a lack of belief from their flock.
Older gods created their own flocks. Godlings in the new generation pull their flocks, but only take those who have been untethered from their native universe.
The youngest gods are the most powerful. As gods age, they become more fixed, but it's at the expense of power.

Zephyr provided the following:

Some combination of creation, repetitive actions for focus, and meditation can keep Zephyr's powers under control.
Zephyr still does not possess an aspect and is becoming anxious because of this, especially in light of recent events.
There is a limited pool of aspects they could be.
Families only rarely have aspects in common.

Some additional bullets may be added for Zephyr as threads progress. Please feel free to continue to jump into interactions with them and interactions with each other on the 4th Wall.

Further, the following changes have occurred:

The Meadous has expanded to 6 square miles.
Every day at noon, the colored stones around the Wishing Pond will rise up and chuck themselves, one after the other, into the pond in a clockwise circle for 30 minutes. The stones will always reappear back on the shore following this.
