The Eye of Blood

Overview

The Eye of Blood, known alternatively as "the Gaze of Truth" or simply "the Truth," is a Divine Glyph  steeped in the primal allure of violence and bloodshed. It embodies the raw thrill and pleasure derived from combat and killing, transcending mere mortal impulses to tap into the darker recesses of the psyche.

Domains

As the arbiter of killing intent and murder, The Eye of Blood reigns over the visceral ecstasy of taking life and reveling in the aftermath of carnage. Unlike The Faceless Moon , which represents the solemnity of death, or the primal ferocity of the The Feral Mark , this divine glyph delves into the psyche of those who wield violence as a means of gratification. It is not the act of killing itself, but rather the twisted pleasure derived from it, that The Eye of Blood embodies.

Incarnations

The only known Incarnation of the Eye of Blood is the legendary axe known as Goreshard, once wielded by an unnamed dwarf king during the Empyrionic War.

Worship

There are no grand temples erected in honor of The Eye of Blood, for its domain lies not in sanctified halls but in the visceral chaos of the battlefield. Its devotees are found among gladiators and warring champions, who offer prayers and invocations before engaging in mortal combat. To follow the path of The Eye of Blood is to embrace the savage ecstasy of violence, seeking inner tranquility amidst the cacophony of chaos and death. For those who heed its call, murder becomes not an act of depravity but a sacred rite, a means of communing with the primal forces that course through the veins of existence.
