The Killing Ground
Contents
The Nature of Edach Kodesh
All the traditional rules that bind the Pageant together come to a stand still here.
Here there is no Weirdling Wall, here there is no bargain with Namrael to protect the members.
All the bargains with Carna are suspended. There is no supernatural help here, there is only heat, fear, and death.
That is the nature of Erdach Kodesh.
Quote
"Like water in the desert is wisdom to the soul. " Edward Consul

Prehistory
When the Universe was created one of the first worlds created was the Heimur Byrjunar. Giants and Gods came were born here, battles fought. The primeval forces did unspeakable things, created horrid monsters, twisted the elements of the world into vile caricatures of their former nature. Once peaceful herbivores became flesh eating monsters. The worms that benefited the earth became roiling destroyers of cities and crops. The varieties of sentient beings that inhabited the world became feral and vicious, becoming mostly roving bands of cannibalistic scavengers.
The elder forces twisted and ground the umbra around the world trying to establish the foothold of a single pantheon to rule the universe. After a millennia the magic here was so tainted, so corrupt that in order to keep it from flowing into the rest of the umbra the elder powers came together to block out it's effects on the rest of the universe. With the withdrawal of the powers that be, the world slowly collapsed and became an unending desert under the twin suns and moons that orbited it's sky. Some mages found a way to sustain small places, that over the aeons have closed into small oasis of safety and water.
When the White Priests first doubted Carna, one of the priests found an ancient text describing the world Heimur Byrjunar.
