Several gasps arose from the throng.
"By our own actions we are weakening and killing our gods," the leader continued, "so in righteous judgment they will smite us if we do not repent!"
"What do we do?" several voices cried.
"Return to the ways of our forefathers who pleased the gods!" the leader answered. "Make sacrifices to the nature gods. Only we can save them and ourselves!"
Yet it was for naught. The Ice Age ended, their lands consumed by water.
