Valley of Kings Writing Prompts

   With a realm that alters itself to meet the needs of its residents such as this, rarely is there any scarcity. There are as many shelters, natural or otherwise, as there are beings living in the realm, and enough land that they may train and roam freely - Within the confines of their duties, of course. Springs, lakes, streams, ponds... all provide fresh water where they arise, and an abundance of prey alongside them, appearing whenever they are needed, and typically with no need to worry about the time needed to birth future generations - It would be almost comparable to spawns in a video game, if the gods and disciples knew what those were. And, on that topic, time is of no concern, either - It flows as the gods will it, allowing those training in the realm all the time they could possibly need to master their abilities and prove their worth. That is not to say that there are never hardships here, of course; training to become a god is not an easy task. It takes great dedication and work and patience, and neither the disciples nor the gods always see eye to eye. But that's just the thing... most of the struggles faced by the residents of this realm are not so physical and material as the basic necessities for survival.
   Indeed, perhaps the one thing in this realm that is scarce is scarcity itself. Many of the disciples have an understanding of the harsh realities of the world, of course - More than a few were mortal themselves before being chosen and brought here, and many of those were allowed to keep the memories of their old, impermanent lives, and all the hardships they might have come with. The ones that don't have those pasts to go on, though? Should they find they are not chosen to become a god, and should they find themselves thrust into the mortal realms again (or perhaps for the very first time), they will find themselves with quite the rude awakening. For in the mortal worlds, the land doesn't alter itself to accommodate the beings that live within them. Indeed, if they change at all, they are more likely to harm than help those who live there. And to discover that for the first time, unprotected, so different to their lives in this shifting world...
   What a harsh wake-up call.
