Working out The ogre with The Wheel (or how to play contradictory Myths)
Hey there, currently doing some prep for my campaign and I have a bit of a conundrum. 2 of my myths are The Ogre and The Wheel. The first session i thought they would combine great, but now I'm looking over their omens again and I'm getting a bit nervous.
The Ogre keeps the season stuck in winter (well not explicitly, but it snows constantly) and the Wheel changes the seasons uncontrollably. If I resolve one myth completely before starting the other, the story works out great. Maybe the Ogre got a hold of the wheel. But if I have to explain how it's still snowing but the seasons are kind of changing, I think my group is going to be very confused on whats happening.
Could I just ignore the omen rolls of one myth till my group finishes the other one? Sure, but I would like to stick to the core principles of Bastionland and roll with the punches and not overly prepare a "plot". I know McDowell says contradictory doesn't have to be bad (like The Sea in a desert) but I just don't know how to play the very opposing omens, should they happen at the same time
Do you have any advice? What's your experience with contradictions of the omens, how did you deal with them?
