BigWheelism

History of Big Wheelism:

In early to mid-February following the coup of Paloro construction of a town called 'Asahiri' was begun. During this time a group of Auroran citizens protesting the attempted unification of Haven entered Paloran lands attempting to locate where this meeting was taking place and let their complaints be known. Starting in Palovina after not finding anyone they moved south towards Asahiri. Here a sight was found that brought everyone present aghast, a large waterwheel was spotted in the river. Many members of the group immediately started chanting "Big Wheel" and attempting to find a way onto it.

After returning home the King's Hand Teddy Robotevelt (Robot_Girlyman) began to preach about this and how its existence and seeming perpetual turning represented what it means to live in the world of Rathnir. Commenting "[...]so perfectly round, a level of evenness that we should all strive for, and it just keeps going, the circle of life if you will you are on top for a bit, then you aren't, but you know the good times will come again because the big wheel just keeps on turning.". Following this proclamation Aurora coming into the possession of the wheel was made a part of the Ultimatum delivered to Loic which after some negotiation and the eventual burning of Asahiri by its own citizens was agreed to.

Moving the BigWheel

Following the Paloran's flee discussions were held between Emperor RumKnight9k, Council members of Aurora, notably RickHarrison(Domn8u) Teddy Robotevelt(Robot_Girlyman) and King Aurelian(Canine14) and finally Keechoo the overthrown and rightful king of Paloro to discuss the changes in borders following its drastic population drop. During these talks work was begun to move the wheel to the Auroran Museum of the History of Rathnir (commonly referred to as the Smithsonian) for safety, further study into its teachings and possibly worship. After hearing about the plan Emperor Rumknight remarked "How will you move a wheel?", to which the Auorans responded "It's a wheel, we will roll it." before breaking into laughter.
