The victories of the first realm are met with celebration and news of a coming Moot. The first generation of the new millenia's leaders soon to be shuffled after nothing less than a brazen assault on the younger realm's defenses. With news of further ambitions following the Moot to free the mines and sack the city of Delphina's infestation, the young initiates of Ymir's Zealots have finally deigned to call upon the rites. The vocal mouthpiece and orphan of the temple, young Shaggard, had these words spread forth through the realm of the north.
Quote:"Hark, and listen close. The shattered god favors our efforts, his vision is clear. The freedom of his broken realm must not be tarnished by ambition, not until a true heir to Grimnir is found to rule the empire of Meranthe once again. Axes and blades must be sharpened, armor riveted and secured, for soon we march into a bloody conflict that may last years, even decades. Knowing this, it is time to ensure Ymir's watchful eye is upon us."
Rumors had it that several nephilim had found their way into the ranks of the initiates of the Zealots alongside doctors and sorcerous scientists, all welcomed under the banner of the Shattered God and his esoteric monks.
Quote:"In the coming rites, races of all clades will bare their soul before Ymir. The gray beards will return from their pilgrimage, masters of time as their lord is. Through them, we shall experience ten days of lashes in one, and by our blood shed will Ymir be satisfied, and a new generation of zealots risen. Blessed be the shattered god, may the suffering we endure for him be nothing compared to that of our enemies."
The formal rites and festival appear to be scheduled not long after the coming great moot, the Zealots of Ymir moving into action as they expand their influence within the north. Talks of a feast and a small tournament after the festival are heard, rumors that the newly anointed priests of Ymir would be sanctifying holy weapons for the coming crusade.
