A word before you read this text: the divine globes have their focus turned overwhelmingly to those of post-academy status - citizens who have graduated and entered either scholastic or guild life; the proven rather than ephemeral member of his or her society. Graduates only may call upon the city's divine globe to witness or act on their behalf.
At any given time, one individual from a city or village may call upon the globe to witness their actions, thus magnifying their impact on the overall divine globe's potency. It is important for a city to coordinate such that those performing the most effective, least risky actions hold the limelight at appropriate times to maximise the benefit gained.
An individual may determine one full swathe of the six daily timeperiods (morning, mid-day, mid-afternoon, evening, dusk, middle of the night) each Avalon day to be of heightened importance in the divine globe's recollection of events pertaining to that citizen. To begin this period, type GLOBE WITNESS. The divine globe will then monitor more closely every act and event relating to the witnessed person. This monitoring will result in each positive action having hundredfold worth, and each negative event hundredfold harm, to the normal state of assessment eternally recorded within its mystical repository. NOTE: TO GET the mostout of your globe, have it begin witnessing at the very start of a time period tick-over, so you get close to a full two timeperiods of effect.
What actions are of most value to the globe? Combats within city walls, offerings of slain enemies, deaths and resurrections, levels attained or lost, abilities acquired and used for the first time, positions gained or lost, changes in one's wealth or the city's wealth, potency (measured dozens of different ways to encompass the combatative, pacifist, explorer or trader approach) and reputation within the land. It would be impossible to define precisely how the globe will bear witness to all of these disparate occurrences, but suffice it to say that a citizen's heroism or growth increases its worth to your city and one's failures the opposite.
You will know when your deeds have pushed your city's globe past significant thresholds just as you will know when your presence has been the cause of it falling past significant, defined levels of potency. As has been stated, your impact on its amalgamated contents will be of minimal significance unless you deliberately call upon the globe to WITNESS you for a time but nonetheless EVERY pertinent occurrence WILL be taken into account. You merely determine bouts of concentrated effort on your own part to bias the results. The sum total of a city's coordinated endeavour over a decade is the key to accumulating a powerful and potent altarpiece globe capable of rendering aid to your fellow citizens.
