no fish in erudin??

[pink grapefruit]

What's the deal with this?

My eru ench is a pescatarian, and she had to ride the boat to the kitties just to buy fish. Followers of Prexus don't sell fish bc why??

What kinda coastal worshippers of the seas don't sell fish in their city?

makes me so angry omg

[Tethler]

Be the change you want to see. Open up a fish stand and corner the market.

Don't they worship fish and not like fishermen? I got that impression from https://wiki.project1999.com/Fisherman_Convert , where you literally go convert a fisherman away from his fishing ways and back into the loving embrace of the oceanlord.

That is just so the Erudites can have more fish to themselves. Ocean lords eat other fish. Sharks are in Kedge Keep, what do you think they eat?

I want to feel more at one with the ocean lord by taking his creations into my body by means of grilling to perfection and then consuming said creations.

That doesn't seem healthy tho :(

Would be silly imo if Prexus ppl were like "don't kill the fish!!"

bc they're supposed to be fisherpeople and sailor and w/e

[Crylol]

97% of tinkerers say it's due to climate change so the gnomes have suggested a 40% tax hike for Erudin. All other regions are unaffected.

Filthy erudites have ruined their homeland. They’ll not ruin mine!

Should be buying your food in Rivervale

[Evia]

Pretty sure its because prexus worshippers (aka most studies) believe fish are sacred. Therefore they don't vie them as something to eat. That would be blasphemous and bring great shame to The Ocean Lord.

[Evia]

Most erudites* not studies

Well, it makes a kind of logical consistent sense, in the world of Norath.

I mean, obviously IRL any culture of people that evolved next to the ocean is going to depend on fish from that ocean to survive, and their religious beliefs would have evolved around that, so they never would have gods that tell them not to eat fish ...

... but IRL also wouldn't have dragons ... or actual gods that interact with the world for that matter.

Mighty presumptuous of you to say irl doesn't have a real God interacting with us every day.

Rather then get into a religious debate, let's just say my definition of "interacting" means making something happen that wouldn't otherwise happen according to the laws of physics. Norath's gods can definitely do that (hell, even non-God casters can do that in Norath).

Real world god(s) can't, or at lest haven't had any documentation of such for thousands of years.

The fishermen are just chumps with no religious training asking Prexus (who they know to be the great god of fish ... and that's about where their religious education ends) "hey can you please have some fish bite today?"

The Erudites are members of a religion which venerates the fish god. They know how to make their diety happy, and it involves not eating his fishy creations ;)

I like my version of erudin better. It's like Japan, except with less robots. And more magic. And less weird sex stuff.

[imsorryGMs]

The erudites depleted their fish resources, overfishing to cook up that yumyum fried catfish

[Ennewi]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Praxis_(process)

So within the world of Norrath, fishing could be considered a praxis for followers of the Oceanlord because the act itself would serve as a reminder of one's connection to and dependence on the sea, but abstaining from the consumption of fish could also be a praxis. Not sure what the blatant roleplay sin here would be, killing Phinny?

And less weird sex stuff.

Until you get to Paineel.
