The Old World was on the brink of self-destruction before the White Lord arrived and cleansed the planet with his purification powers. And, despite the lack of information regarding such events, countless Imperial archivians have spent years writing almighty tombs detailing this historic moment. I will not make the same mistake.   This section of the Lendorian Encyclopaedia aims to educate Imperials (and any other Lendorian races willing to learn) beyond the hearsay taught at school. (And trust me, what we learnt has Ganay-sized gaps in knowledge).  

Differences between the races

I have abstained from discussing the Ofrak since archivians disagree on the beliefs of this mysterious race; some say they follow the White Lord; others say the Dark Lord. A few mention a Lord of Death, but most speak of a fire God known as Drax - That Ancient myth claims to be an unstoppable force of nature raining death from the skies. Either way, read about the Ofrak to learn the few details we know.  

The Dark Church

  The Imperial Queen has legalized the Dark Church while the Fein and Riktus rulers have banned any such followings. The Queen's decision has caused widespread controversy with many demanding the Dark church's closure.   My personal source within the The Royal Guard told me; "she knows the truth of that place." I have no idea what he meant but uttering any more would cost him his life. He did however add that having all the violent criminals congregating near the dark church makes it easier to monitor "the sneaky little bastards" - His words not mine.  

Bonding with the Light

  Imperials believe in the The Pure Journey - the 17-day vigil that traverses around the The White Church bringing an individual's soul closer to the Lord's Light. They also follow the The Virtuous Path which connects to the Steps to Esh - a revision of the The Nonaments which were burnt and lost forever in the Great Fire.
The Riktus believe self-inflicted pain and glorious battle, as taught by their Okron, (possibly one of the 5 Guardians) brings them to the Light.
The Fein preach about being at one with nature and accepting the unity of all life as one entity. 
When I have time, and if I believe any Imperials will actually read it, I might write more about this fascinating topic.  

The White Lord

  Many Imperials believe the darkness has spread beyond control and expect the Divine one to bring his cleansing powers once more.
The Riktus, as always, believe blood, sacrifice and tears will win the dark war and not praying for salvation from the Lord's return.
The Fein believe the Great One's cleansing will only return if Lendorians find a way to destroy themselves again.  

Replenishing Extinguished Light

  Imperial Divines located in the nine major Tenglan cities allow the blessed to charge their Sorce abilities. All other settlements have beacons that tap into the closest Divine allowing its Aura -blessed inhabitants access to the Light's powers.
The Riktus use sacred totems scattered throughout their land of Grask to channel the Light.
The Fein use 'Light trees' with imbued Lord's essence.
