Dragonbone Necropolis

[Nep]

" The history of this entire continent lays asleep in this place, now. Keep it so. " 

-Unknown, Unknown. Necropolis approach carvings.

Nestled at the ends of many a winding mountain paths splintered throughout the massive range beyond Theria, is a valley pungent with the stench of death and rot. A graveyard, for dragons of mortal acclaim and Drakanites of truly legendary status, their time come for a myriad of different reasons and either come to rest willingly, or brought already lifeless. The bones of a thousand lay cold and forgotten, flesh eaten away or frozen to perfect remembrance. Adolescents and younglings often dominate the skies of these peaks, watching forever over the cold, open cemetery below. Broken eggs lay frozen into the earth, the hope of life within them never seen to fruition.

By very state of being, this is a place to remind one of the mortality of all things, no matter how grand. It is sacred.

But within it? There are rites lost to Theria proper which separated devout sects of old ways. Ways in which they buried fallen Dragons and truly exalted Dragonkin in a way that was revered and desired. Words spoken, offering made, riches buried with in both the open of the valley and with vast, archaic cave structures make-shifted and dug into caves. Stonebricked tall into mausoleums carved from the same stone, too, dot this ancient scar in the landscape. But there is reason more to pursue this place, than to make as honorable the burial of Garljing's own blood.

Something horribly wicked has found these frozen, hollowed grounds, and escaped the notice of it's guardians above. And it is devouring the still and at peace remains of dragonkind lain dormant for untold time.

Rites must be reclaimed. This evil must be snuffed out.

Character name: Rinn

Extra attendees: Active Therians, Roughly 6(maybe 5) total attendees likely(dm me before posting ITT, please), if numbers interested are that high. It is expected that most or all will be 190+ for a relatively high arc of balancing.

Objective: 

1. To uncover ancient rites and honors by which dragonkind is laid to rest, and begin to create an extension to the reliquary similar to this place for those rare within Theria so deserving. The first will be Garljing's own son.

2.To repel a scourge from these holy grounds, a terrifyingly lauded unknown that is said to devour the remains of dragons for equally unknown reason.

Tone: Melancholy, Grim, Tense.

Risk: Big.

Reward: I want to drown in dragon stuff, foremost. Fluff rites for the respectful final resting rites of the fallen. Loots stolen and hoarded by the beastly unknown, to be reclaimed. Relics of strong value and fluff significance- mechanical and not. The latter would be to fill the Reliquary, and the former as a form of reward for the big risks everyone here's getting into. Things meant to be won by the daring, and not stolen.

Dm: Looking!

Additional infromation: This may become a multi-part event! I definitely want the location revisited, even if following events here are unrelated.
