"For all of its flaws, and there are many, this world is brimming with promise. It is raw, abundant in life, and unpredictable. Now let's begin the work of realizing paradise..."

HIGH OFFICIALS:

EALDIN - The Crown

SIRAIDE - The Staff

SPECTRE - The Sword
INTERREGNA - The Quill

POPULATION: Descendants (5), Spirit-Wards (400), Humans (50)

➤The mysterious, intergalactic group known as RISE has returned to Meranthe. Descendants of the ones who built the Tower of Aetius and used it as a vessel to explore the cosmos; renegades and hardened warriors that have lived on colony worlds. They appear extremely organized, possess magitech on a level beyond, and guarded intelligence of the deep lores of the universe, if lacking in recent information within Meranthe itself.

➤The Aenite cloak of the Pylae Nephilim Kure Avincus appeared on a pillar within the Sainted Enclave, bloodied. The worst was assumed.

➤Their outpost can be found south west within Mount Pavonis. (150, 450, 1)

➤Their surface level goals have been made clear enough to any magi that asks:
"All may join in on the revolution, including the natives here... but only if you're a cut above the rest. Our desire is to elevate Meranthe beyond its petty reliance on the pantheon and their rigid ideologies, as they laugh from above while you were wage your pointless wars and throw stones at one another. The end is now, and the future is today, rather than tomorrow."

➤The gathering of precious resources and the accruement of a standing army begins. Mercenaries are welcome. Eternite in particular is highly valued.

➤A hunt is planned to bring stability to the Tower of Aetius. See thread. 

RELATIONS
"... It's quite simple, really."

HUMANITY: Ally

ALL GODS: Enemy

FAITH: "If you pray in front of us, then prepare to lose both hands. If all priests up and went on strike, then the pantheon's influence would diminish greatly..."

WITCHCRAFT: "You had to sell your soul for power? You're compromised. As good as dead- no, worse, because you'll serve our enemies in the outer worlds as a slave."

NECROMANCY: "It's not for the faint of heart. Mastering death...Siraide has spent many decades in his practice, and has need of fresh corpses."

MAGITECH: "Ask Ealdin about the vault. Politely."

FORTUNA: "Is this some kind of cult, or what? Does she really think she can predict my tomorrow? Disregard."

DEMONS: "So I met this angry wasp, Djanthornix.. then forced his potential to surface. And he didn't live long beyond that. What curious critters."
