Direction of Faith


Smallfolk would cower in awe of a world made from the vision of Daer-Koch. In such a world great legions led by visionary heroes would clash in mighty battle upon battle. It would be a world of conflict, where every creature that lived would cling strongly to its beliefs and seek to announce them out loud. The successful among them would bring like minded individuals to their banner and lead their adherents in conquest. In such a world there would be an unending conflict from which might impossibly arise an ultimate and glorious truth which would rally all things into a perfect expression of divinity.
