In the center of Aesirheim, a hill has always stood. Barren and scorched by the sun. A few stray cacti having nestled their home among it. However, after the last battle for Aesirheim, in spite of what seems to be a growing issue with Drought, careful tending by the farmers of the Vanirhallan settlement, and minor earth magi, has brought the hill to something more akin to life. Short, sturdy grass dimly starting to sprout on it. Stones beginning to be erected against it.
The words of the settlement's High Priestess are carried through the land.
Quote:"Now is a time where our people are at some of their lowest. Barely have our lands began to heal from the scars brought on it, barely have our people's hearts began to heal before a new tragedy has struck the heart of we Vanirhallans. Our Jarl has fallen. A new name to be carved into the stones, to remember the legacy he brought."
"Soon the stones will stand, and we shall hold a memorial. And welcome in Vekel's successor, the next of his line, who will see to any challenges that his people may hold then."
"Then we're going to have a feast and get blackout fuckin' drunk. Three knows we all deserve it."
Beyond that, word circulates that the High Priestess is looking for souls to carry the word of the Triumvirate, and join the priesthood of the Vanirhallan people. Further rumors spread that she wishes to elevate new people to the role of High Priests...a trio of heads for the religion.
The Memorial/Swearing in of the next Jarl begins on Saturday June 26th, at 5pm EST. Additionally, DM Spicy Serious#1979 to set up a scene regarding the Triumvirate's worship. Or send a letter to Ragnhild Sionnach.
