A NEW EVIL HAS ARISEN
After so many years of peace that no one can even recall the last war, your tribe's home has been invaded. Your temple to Ghaunadar, carefully crafted into stone, slowly worn down by generations of your people, has been desecrated. To make matters worse, these invaders don't even have the decency to have developed proper psuedopdia. They just keep their appendages hanging on the outside of their bodies. How disgusting. Shl'hlp proposed to repel the invaders by explaining to them that it's a temple of Ghaunadaur. That there was nothing in there that was worth anything to anyone who did not worship him. The legged aberrations however, felt differently. Something about the Distant Worlds. It didn't translate well.
Shl'hlp explained that his was a peaceful tribe. He offered them transcendence of the chains of mortality through unity with the undifferentiated primordial energy. They misunderstood his gesture and sliced off Shl'hlp's psuedopodium with which he offered the acid. He bid his tiny new offspring good luck in life, and slurched back to the temple to inform his people that negotiations had failed.
Now, it's up to you to protect the Temple of Ghaunadar and drive these invaders back out into the light from the ball of death they love so much.
