Left to ponder the notion of a Divine bargain, the Speakers of the Heartwood turned to each and every councilor to plan out their next move. The council pondered over the course of several weeks how best to satisfy the request of the Divine Memory, leading to several conversations about the last time they had…

Maddened gibbering and discordant clicks arose from the flaming crucible of unformed Chaos as the Mad God sculpted new servants to waylay Its newly-empowered assailant. Distorted silhouettes emerged in that conflagration of no hue, lining up together shoulder to shoulder as if in mockery of Bamathis’ disciplined domain of military might. Pale as corpses and…

As the final days of Omeian came to a close, Strife’s fervent warriors assembled to give unto Him an offering of their belief and power captured by their hands. Called to Sibre by the Warlord’s chosen, the Theocracy of Spinesreach swiftly assembled upon the parade ground at the heart of the fortress. Beginning first with…

As the first days of Omeian unfolded, so too did the many schemes of the Six Nations. Growing tired of the repetitive antics brought on by Faceless Madness’s followers and the realm at large’s response, Lexadhra made Her will known to three of Sapience’s four major city-states. Consulting first with Presiding Voice Bhalwyn, the Indelible…

As if stoked by an invisible hand, the sentinel’s furnace-heart roared to life. Embers and sparks scattered from the slitted grate guarding its burning lifeforce, granting it the energy to rise and turn its filigreed head towards the source of violence. The masterful network of runes scrawled upon its body began to light up and…

Lanu Du’s gaze became more oppressive with each passing day, the ravages of Nazedhan raiders and cultists reaching far and wide across Sapience. Priests of Fundamental Chaos cried out wild exultations and brazenly erected shrines within city territories and public spaces, and Its bloodthirsty warriors marched the land in search of places to pillage and…

Satisfied now with the conclusion of the Hammer of Dawn’s ritual, Duiran turned their attention towards their own. Preparing over seven weeks, the Heartwood secured willing sacrifices and planned out an elaborate ritual to beseech Vo’acha’s empowerment of Amitivis. When the ceremony drew nigh, the Speakers fed Amitivis vast quantities of flesh, blood, and bone…

Gereghond – the Bull, Lord of Fertility, Protector of the Herd, Accordant Earth – thundered forth from the eastern seaboard. With a deafening blast of His colossal trunk, the rugged primordial trampled forth upon a naturalising tide of deific energy. Each roar of Gereghond’s mighty trumpet sent spurts of oceanic water to the skies, blessing…

For weeks, the Hammer of Dawn anxiously prepared for an unorthodox rite to honour the great Gereghond, God of Fertility and Plenty across myriad Albedi cultures. To ensure the security of the city’s aims, the Heralds restricted all knowledge of the ritual until just days prior, with several citizens questioning the legitimacy of such an…
