Mother of Graves

{{Infobox_character

}}
'''The Mother of Graves''' is the protector of [[Liscor's Dungeon]]. She has three guardians who serve her, them being [[Skinner]], [[Facestealer|Snatcher]], and [[Stalker]].
== Appearance ==
The Mother of Graves has been said to be "not a person", represented as massive being that swims.

The Mother of Graves is a Flesh Worm, as described by Lord Moore in the Ten Years Later simulation:

''"The largest monster in the world. A writhing, sinuous red shape, with long whip-like arms and terribly strong suckers on the end of them. Razor mouth, slithering body, and intelligence, true intelligence lurking behind those tiny black eyes set onto the scaleless snake’s body, the twisted earthworm given legs. Carrion-feeder, corpse thief, infestation. And a form infinitely bigger than all her children, lurking in the darkness and waiting."''<ref>{{VERef|10.32 (Pt. 1)}}</ref>

== Personality ==

== Background ==
The Mother of Graves was created by Liskaldreth, the Walled City of Graves, and took control of it such that even its Draconic Titans deferred to her. After the city was sunk underground for its crimes, the mad inhabitants worshipping her converted the city into a Vengeance Dungeon. The Mother of Graves spread microscopic flesh worms telepathically connected to her into the dungeon, pupating in the stagnant waters and infesting all the monsters, giving her control over them.

== Chronology ==
===Volume 4===
[[Toren]] explores the dungeon and walks up a short staircase. A message written in elegant script is written above a simple metal door. The message was etched into stone and enchanted to last forever. He walks through the door, and then quickly backs out seconds later, chased by "things".{{ref|4.08 T}}
{{quote
|quote=Horrible death awaits all those who enter this place. Your bodies shall be taken and made part of the Mother of Graves.
|speaker= Warnings on a wall read by [[Toren]] in [[Liscor's Dungeon]].{{ref|4.08 T}}
}}
== Powers and Abilities ==
As the protector of Liscor's Dungeon, it may be the one that controls the waves of monsters in the first layer of the dungeon. Although it's said to not be a person, it's mentioned that [[Grand Design of Isthekenous|The Grand Design]] has given it powers similar to [[Kasigna]]'s.

== Trivia ==
* It was revealed in [[Chapter 5.42|Ch 5.42]] that she is the boss of [[Liscor's Dungeon]].
* It was created later than the [[Mortemdefieir Titan|Mortemdefieir]] Titan, but still at least 20,000 years ago.<ref>{{VERef|10.25 MG}}</ref>

'''Nuvityn''' is the king of [[Erribathe]], the Kingdom of Myth.

== Appearance ==
His hair is dark brown with some grey strands.

== Personality ==
His extended longevity has affected his sense of time, such as continuing previous conversations after long stretches of time, or only eating his favorite food once a year.<ref name=":1" />

== Background ==
Nuvityn's father taught him everything he'd need as a king, but was distant due to being troubled by the aftermath of Curulac's rampage. As a result, he grew up wild spending time in every part of his land, as well as the [[Half-Elves|half-Elf]] villages. He went on adventures and gained unorthodox titles in those days, such as being the first king of Erribathe in three generations to be titled ''Manoerhog''. He has been married for over two hundred years, though the marriage had not been a happy one before he and Eithelenidrel found some amicability in the last 30 years.<ref name=":1">{{VERef|10.16 N}}</ref>

He was alive during the last rise of the Nagatine Empire and the fall to madness of [[Az’kerash|Az'kerash]]. When the [[Forgotten Wing Company]] rose to prominence, he helped fund them so they would defeat the [[Jungle Tails]] and remove them as a threat.

== Chronology ==
Hearing of [[Teriarch]]'s appearance in [[Calanfer]], he went to check a wall in his palace with a list of [[dragons]], identifying him. He pondered what Teriarch wanted.<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/12/07/interlude-age-and-tales/ Interlude - Age and Tales]</ref>

== Powers and Abilities ==
Because of his class, his marriage to a half-Elf has extended his lifespan for centuries.

=== Classes/Levels: ===

* [King of Wyld Folks] Lv. 41

== Trivia ==

* Among his titles are King of Men, Elfwed, Leader of the United Peoples of Erribathe, King of Myths, and Manoerhog. The last one was earned from the Taligrit by wrestling a wild boar and winning.<ref name=":0" />

}}
'''The Queen of the Armored Antinium''', mostly known as '''Armored Queen''', is the ruler of the [[Armored Antinium]] Hive.

== Appearance ==
She is the largest of all of the queens on Izril. her body is bloated due to many births carried out before the queens of Izril learned how to birth Antinium using pods.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/01/22/5-54-2/ Chapter 5.54]</ref>

== Personality ==
Like the antinium beneath her, her personality is militant and direct. Though she can be easily distracted by managing her hive, interrupting ongoing conversations or tasks, for hours. <ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/08/05/7-39-a/ 7.39 A]</ref> The Armored Queen is somewhat more radical than the other queens of the Hivelands (though less so than the Free Queen). She is one of the least skilled queens in terms of shaping Antinium forms which lead her to instead study metallurgy. Of all the queens she expressed the most initial interest in the Free Queens individual Antinium<ref name=":0" /> . She even supported Anand's plan to build Antinium ships despite "...no Queen would have the time or insanity to try it, not after they had seen their species die at sea."([[Klbkch]])<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/09/20/7-48-k/ 7.48 K]</ref>

== Background ==
The Armored Queen was a junior Queen to one of the War Queens who died at sea,<ref>{{VERef|10.54 UEG (Pt. 2)}}</ref> and one of the few antinium queens that survived the journey from Rhir to Izril. She and other older queens had to modify their bodies extensively to be able to birth other antinum.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/06/29/6-29/ Chapter 6.29]</ref> This let the Armored Queen survive through the first and second antinum wars.

Her hive is specialized in metallurgy and crafting, learned through trial and error with the aid of reference books taken from the other species of Izril.

== Chronology ==

== Powers and Abilities ==

=== Classes/Levels: ===
* [Chivalrous Queen of Memoriam] Lv. 30+

=== Skills: ===

* [Linked Skill: (''Skill'')]
** [Massed Strikes]

== Trivia ==

* Metal in the soil or metal helmets can interfere with the mental signals the Queens use to communicate. The Armored Queen must constantly micromanage her hive to compensate for this.<ref name=":0" />

== Quotes ==
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2019/01/22/5-54-2/ To] Queens) “The Armored Antinium assent. What strengthens the Hives is worthy of being saved. Preserve the Worker.”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2019/01/22/5-54-2/ To] [[Queen of the Free Antinium|Free Queen]]) “All must be done as the Grand Queen wills. My Soldiers will greet yours soon.”

== Appearance ==
A native Drathian, Pekona has physical characteristics reminiscent of East Asian peoples from Earth. She has black hair, and her features resembles that of Ryoka's, although her skin tone is a shade darker,<ref name=":0">{{VERef|10.39 YN}}</ref> and is "shorter by a head" in height.<ref>{{VERef|9.30}}</ref> As of the raid on the [[Village of the Dead]], she is missing a hand.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/04/28/8-19-h/ Chapter 8.19 H]</ref>

== Personality ==
Pekona is not very talkative, mainly because her fluency in the common tongue isn't as great as other people's.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/07/24/5-05/ Chapter 5.05]</ref> She becomes even more reticent after her confidence in her blade-wielding abilities is shaken after the Village of the Dead raid and the Trial of Blades. Having beheld true legends of swordmanship in the [Dragonbane Swordlegend] and [[Zeladona Ischen]], she has become increasingly self-critical, and often claims that she is a "disgrace." Despite that, after meeting the latter, Pekona's drive to improve has intensified, training obsessively with her blade and continuing as an adventurer, even with an arm missing.

== Background ==
Pekona was born and raised in the [[Drath Archipelago]].<ref name=":5.05" /> Her grandfather sold a jar of cultivation reagents that he aged all his life so that Pekona could buy her blades. She wasn't interested in becoming a [Cultivator] or [Slayer], preferring to only master the sword, so she left Drath.

Two years ago, she became a member of [[Vuliel Drae]].<ref name=":5.05">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/07/24/5-05/ Chapter 5.05]</ref>

'''Tserre''' is an elderly resident of the [[Village of the Spring]].

==Appearance==
She has icy blue eyes and white hair cropped just above the neck. She wears semi-rimless glasses<ref name=":0">{{VERef|10.16 N}}</ref>

==Personality==
She's grouchy and testy.

==Background==
An inhabitant of the Groves of Ettertree in [[Avel]], Tserre studied magic for over one hundred sixty years before going to [[Wistram Academy]], where she was taught by [[Silvenia Ettertree]]. The Archmage of Hell failed Tserre in her first class to see if she was eligible to go to [[Rhir]]. Years later, Tserre met Silvenia on slightly better terms during far worse conditions in Rhir, when the Kingdom of Blight's End was under attack against [[Soiretham]]<nowiki/>s. During this time, she was partnered with Knightess [[Leila Springwalker]].

At some point, Tserre became a Councilmagus of Wistram, and regularly returned to Rhir on the Blighted Kingdom's and Silvenia's request. After Silvenia joined the Demon Kingdom as the Death of Magic, Tserre was among the former Archmage's students and friends who fought against her. It is implied that she knows of the full truth of why Silvenia turned traitor, which made her unofficially wanted by the [[Blighted Kingdom]] .<ref name=":1">{{VERef|Interlude – Another Time}}</ref> She's been residing in the Village of Spring for centuries, in her cottage within a magical bubble of everlasting spring.

She didn't notice her friend [[Leila]] had died until over a decade later, when her neighbor [[Prildor]] informed her.<ref name=":0" />

==Chronology==
===Volume 10===
Tserre learned of Leila's death and [[Ceria Springwalker|Ceria]]'s disappearance by Prildor. [[Nuvityn]] informed them of Ceria's current condition, and she requested to join his quest to retrieve her. She moved her entire cottage with her "chickens" Asture and Vorucula as she departed the village. Less than 10 seconds after leaving, Silvenia appeared before her, warning her that if Tserre didn't join her cause, the Blighted Kingdom would soon come looking for her and at the same time remembering Tserre that she owed her, however Tserre decided to go look for Ceria with the help of Nuvityn and an army of Erribathe.<ref name=":0" />

When [[Erin Solstice|Erin]] asked the [[Pavilion of Secrets]], Tserre appeared and told Erin how to deal with her condition.<ref>{{VERef|10.18 E}}</ref>

==Powers and Abilities==
She has a cottage that moves. She can cast a spell that maintains idyllic weather or starts sudden storms over a large area similar to Wistrams protection against storms.<ref name=":0" />

===Classes/Levels:===

* Unknown class Lv. 63

===Spells:===
*[Arrows of True Seeking]
*[Autocasting]
*[Cage of Impervious Force]
*[Dream Purge]
*[Elemental Cohesion]
*[Enlarge Spell]
*[Expand Spell]
*[Grand Dispelling]
*[Identify High Magic]
*[Incineration Ray]
*[Long-Ranged Scrying: (''Person'')]
*[Marking of the Archer's Star]
*[Mass Spell: Transmute Air to Water]
*[Mystic Arcane Lock]
*[Mystical Spellsurge]
*[Pinpoint Scrying]
*[Rain of Lightning Bolts]
*[Regional Scrying: ''(Place)'']
*[Scrying: (''Person'')]
*[Spell Warp]

==Trivia==

* She was fond of slimes, having kept at least one hundred forty two over the years.
* Her aging has slown down, having looked fourteen years old in appearance when she was two hundred sixteen years old.
* Her magic class is described to have some overlap with the [Witch] class.<ref>{{VERef|Another Time – Interlude}}</ref> Possibly, she is one who pursues deep mastery of a range of magical disciplines.
* She saw the casting of a Tier 8 spell after only two years in Rhir.
* Silvenia has implied that while she could kill Tserre in a one-on-one, Tserre might be able to match her with the help of Erribathe's army.<ref name=":1" />

==Quotes==

* “There is far more to tell, Your Majesty. There always is. But if you doubt me, you have only one question to ask. Did I know? Did I join her?”
* “I don’t fear the ''Great'' Companies of Baleros, Your Majesty."
* “I left that child alone as time fled me. I am guilty of failing my responsibilities. When I thought I had given them all up—"
* "Do you suppose we could stop by Wistram, then? I left all my things upstairs.”
* “Fear nothing. See nothing that cannot be understood. Walk with magic in your heart. Lift your wands high.”
* ([[Chapter 10.18 E|To]] [[Erin Solstice]]) “Would that be Erin Solstice, [Innkeeper]?”/ “Tserre. Good luck.”

'''Frieke''' is a [[Dullahans|Dullahan]] Named Adventurer from [[Medain]], known as the '''Falcon''' '''of Medain''' because of her Seahawk, Konska. She later defected to [[Khelt]].<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/07/25/8-32/ Chapter 8.32]</ref>

== Appearance ==

== Personality ==
Having grown up in a predominantly Human culture, Frieke lacks the rigid formality demeanor of most Dullahans, and is less bound by their rigid social customs. She lacks confidence in herself, seen when she worried over getting the attention of [[Satar Silverfang]], despite her celebrity status as a Named-rank. She is a "history nerd," and is fascinated by ancient historical accounts.

Compared to most Named-ranks, Frieke is in a healthy place mentally, partly due to her friendship with Konska, whom she treats as an equal.<ref name=":1" />

== Background ==
Frieke grew up as a streetrat in Medain. She bought Konska at a bazaar "by chance." Her family tried to claim her as their own after she reached Gold-ranked, but she rejected them. She was forced to kill her father.

She once visited Baleros to connect with her roots, but was shunned by the native Dullahans due to not knowing Dullahan culture and their rigid social behavior.<ref name=":1">{{VERef|10.55 F}}</ref>

Trials of Levelling

2026-02-26T12:39:24Z

Wymae: /* List of Trials */

The '''Trials of Levelling''' are a series of three trials that evaluates species for their potential for levelling and induction into the [[System|Grand Design]].

== Overview ==
Set forth by the Grand Design, the Trials of Levelling challenges new intelligent, eligible species to be "worthy of levelling." Known eligible species include Sariant Lambs, Trolls, Gargoyles,<ref name=":2" /> as well as tribes of primates on Baleros.

The Trials and their conditions are announced as a revelation every ten years to all members of the species. The Grand Design keeps track of a species' progress in completing the trials, generating a report every year. After completing the Trials, the species is then appraised by the Grand Design, to be either accepted into the system or rejected. People with classes and levels are incapable of knowing or understanding the existence of the Trials of Levelling: they can't hear if someone is talking about the Trials, while any writings are perceived as blank.<ref>[[Chapter 9.32]]</ref> This suppression of knowledge also extends to members of species who passed the Trials but did not get levels in the end. However, levelless people, or "Rulebreakers" can learn about the Trials. People with levels via the [[Pavilion of Secrets]] or if they have the Skill [Condition: Rulebreaker's Thoughts].

While there is no time limit for the Trials, a species can be failed in a judgement phase that takes place after completing the tasks, which is confirmed to be the case with [[Dragons]].<ref name=":2">[[Interlude – The Competition|Interlude - The Competition]]</ref><ref name=":0">[[Interlude – Brewing Sariants|Interlude - Brewing Sariants]]</ref>The judgement phase is suspected to involve negotiations with the Grand Design.<ref name=":3" /> Regardless of success or failure of this judgement phase, all knowledge and memory of the Trials of Levelling are wiped afterwards.<ref name=":0" /> The towers are stored within the Grand Design.<ref name=":3" />

== History ==
The first species of the world such as Humans, Goblins, and Dwarves did not have to undergo the Trials of Levelling.<ref name=":3">{{VERef|Redscar– Interlude}}</ref>

Millennia ago, Dragons built an eight-hundred foot tower, a hundred feet higher than they needed,<ref name=":1">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/10/17/9-61-g/ Chapter 9.61 G]</ref> made out of gems, Adamantium, and Dragonbone in one of the Dragonthrones, though it was later destroyed by a Tier 8 spell. When the Dragons were appraised to join the system of levelling, they were rejected.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/04/16/interlude-levels/ Interlude - Levels]</ref>

Other species that later completed the Trials and passed the judgement phase were [[Jinn]], [[Fraerlings]], [[Selphids]], [[String People]], and lastly [[Antinium]] after a long period where no one else had qualified.<ref name=":1" /> [[Golems]] and [[Wyverns]] have also made towers.

On orders of the [[First Grand Queen]], the Antinium built a tower made out of gemstones and marble in their Hives for the competition of the Trial of Creation.

[[Crelers]] were the last species to have reached the judgement phase after the Antinium.<ref name=":1" />

Six hundred and twenty-four years ago, Sariant Lambs were presented with the Trials of Levelling. However, they had difficulty completing it due to their weak bodies and inability to survive on their own. They once tried to build a tower that stood fifty foot before it was destroyed by [[Rhisveri Zessoprical]].<ref>[[Chapter 9.06]]</ref> Their progress thus far is that they've earned the respect of six individuals Level 57 or above, and the tallest tower they've built is 214.4 feet in height.<ref name=":0" />

Tribes of apes and monkeys on [[Baleros]] are also trying to complete the Trials. The sudden expansion of the [[Dyed Lands]] have wrecked their progress at completing the Trial of Creation.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/06/04/interlude-trade-and-travel/ Interlude - Trade and Travel]</ref>

== List of Trials ==
The following trials were given to the Sariant Lambs.

'''''<Trials of Levelling — Sariant Lambs>''' <ref>{{VERef|9.32}}</ref><blockquote>''In order to be evaluated for class-potential and induction into the Grand Design of Isthekenous, your people must complete the 3 following trials. No time limit has been given. Evaluation will commence on completion of all three.''</blockquote>

'''''<Trial of Esteem — The Respect of Species><ref name=":0" />''''' <blockquote>''To justify yours is a group worthy of its place amongst the other species, receive the respect and accolades of the worthy. An individual must, without coercion or influence, genuinely offer one or any number of your people the sincerest token of personal gratitude, admiration, respect, envy, or fear.''

''Awe no less than '''[10]''' individuals capable of levelling to fulfill this task.''

''Each one of the ten individuals must be at'' least '''''[Level 57]''' or higher.''</blockquote>'''''<Trial of Creation — The Tower of Sariants>'''''<ref name=":9.32">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/01/18/9-32/ Chapter 9.32]</ref><blockquote>''To prove yours is a people capable of creation and shall endure, build unto this world a construction unique only to your people. None of levels may give thee aid in the smallest part of this building.'' ''Let it rise higher than any other before you. To a height of'' 892.4 feet ''from top to base, and let it stand at least a minute. Then yours will be a people who have proven they have the potential to climb yet further.''</blockquote>'''''<Trial of Growth — The Unsurpassed One><ref name=":0" />''''' <blockquote>''To win the right for your kind to grow beyond their mortal limits, hear these words, worthy one. You of all your people must achieve what is impossible by any member of your species naturally. You must create, in body, spirit, or magic, what lies in the realm of Skills. The foundation of [Flurry of Blades] is unsurpassed motion and ability that cannot be replicated by mortal hands. Create a single concept worthy of a Skill and you shall usher your people forward.''</blockquote>

==Synopsis==
Full of sorrow [[Mrsha du Marquin (Root)|Root Mrsha]] witnessing the end, with all of the doors cracked and the mess that is unfolding with the armies flowing through the gaps in reality. Waves of [[Rhir|Rhirian]] soldiers make their way through the ''"Ten Years Later"'' rift, [[Pawn (Bishop)]] orders his [[Painted Antinium]] to secure [[The Wandering Inn]] and kill [[Belavierr Donamia|Belavierr]] that just passed through the rift. [[Crelers]] start to appear en masse wiggling their way through the tiny cracks of reality from a world where they have won the [[Creler Wars]], then a rift opens from a reality where [[Flos Reimarch]] never slumbered conquering the world which allows him and his army into the [[Palace of Fates|[Palace of Fates]]]. Root Mrsha shifts the hallways about managing to relocate where Flos's group arrives from, yet all the doors crack even further as a [[Truestone Golems|Truestone Golem]] appears wreaking havoc.

[[Lyonette du Marquin|Lyonette]] and those around her retreat their way back to the exit into the [[Garden of Sanctuary|[Garden of Sanctuary]]] in order to fortify it from those unwanted.

Root Mrsha weeps as she thinks about Aladdin's pitiable situation in the movie as what the original [[Mrsha du Marquin|Mrsha]] wished for causing so much harm. Lyonette ask for where [[Nanette Weishart|Nanette]] is and learns that she was given a root and somewhere in the palace, the door to "If [[Brunkr]] Lived" opens allows them to notice that the doors with roots attached to them are creating bigger rifts than the rest of the doors, Root Mrsha tells everyone to go to the exit and to not let anyone wrong to go into the inn as she endeavors to keeps those looking for the exit away. She tells them to hold for as long as they can since there are still those true still within the Palace.

As Root Mrsha obfuscates the exit, [[Kevin Hall|Kevin]] and others from ''"Better Days"'' show up and are shown the exit. Root Mrsha does what she can to find the others when stumbling upon the [[Horns of Hammerad]] from the ''<nowiki>''</nowiki>[[Ruins of Albez]]"'' reality, [[Ushar]] tells the adventurers the way to the exit but [[Pisces Jealnet|Pisces]] runs back into the door to get everyone he loves here with his team following after him. Belavierr and the Witch of Sorrows appear jetting Ushar aside, Belavierr looms over Root Mrsha delighting to fulfill that promise until [[Sheta (Palace of Fates)|Sheta]] intervenes. The two [[Witches]] run away as Sheta proclaims to set what wrongs she can right, trying to give hope to the little Gnoll.

As the two [[Teriarch|Teriarchs]] are fighting each other Sheta appears and reprimands the both of them and calls on them to do what is right. As multiple armies clash another Teriarch is seen engulfing the hallways with his flames trying to hold the many foes back.

[[Jospiere]] finishes off the first wave of low leveled [[Goblins]] when he sees a brass [[Dragon]] emerge from the portal, scanning the Dragon for its character sheet he can see that the Dragon can move even within his skill. Jospiere run away towards the mages to be teleported away but dies before any of that can happen, holding the line Teriarch faces off against the many [Heroes] as he sees the Teriarch of this reality crawl his way into the portal.

As [[Emerrhain]] is conjuring a spell at [[Niers Astoragon|Niers]], he is suddenly yanked by ropes held by [[Centaurs]]. Seeing that the God consume those he touches and that there's a whole city of civilians fleeing their way to the portal, Niers tells [[Perorn Sadiluc|Perorn]] take command of those left alive and to close the door after five minutes as he tries to hold the God back. In anger Emerrhain throws a spell that destroys much of the remaining inn, choosing to do what has to be done Niers orders a bombardment of the entire [[Floodplains]] and [[Liscor]] to kill the civilians in an attempt to starve out the God. Niers does all he can to figure out how to combat a God, using his unit teleporting skill Niers brings over [[Foliana]], the [[Seer of Steel]] and many others to escape into the portal. Now knowing that only faith or authority have the power to injure the man, Niers takes a last stand doing all he can to hurt the God of Magic. Emerrhain emerge into the Palace going door to door taking what he can as the other Gods arrive to feast upon the many beings.

[[Tolveilouka Ve’delina Mer|Tolveilouka]] feels the sudden death of his master [[Zacheales]] and [[Erin Solstice|Erin]], [[Kasigna|The Crone]] removes a shard of metal from her cheek as it drops to the ground as she makes her way up the hill. Tolveilouka loses the will to continue but is kicked by the fleeting remnants of Erin hearing her last request, filled with vengeance Tolveilouka makes his way to complete his mission.

[[Cauwine]] stands there as she sees the world of Crelers flood the Palace by widening the rift, after consuming the Elder Creler Cauwine denounces them as unworthy of her and sunders the rift. Cauwine encounters Flos and his [[Seven]] and while they do battle what remains of [[Laedonius Deviy]] appears behind them consuming [[Orthenon]]. Seeing the poor state Deviy is in Cauwine offers him the mercy of a swift death, but he suddenly lunges for Flos and misses, the two Gods start to devour those around them to deprive the other of sustenance. Flos and whatever remains of his army retreat to their entry point but [[Tamaroth]] suddenly arrives and starts to consume Flos, but Flos is able to headbutt the God and is carried away by his Seven. The three [[Dead Gods]] negotiate an agreement of noninterference since the other three dead Gods are there as well eating all that they can while the Maiden continues to watch.

Lyonette evacuates everyone she can as [[Ishkr Silverfang|Ishkr]] comes to tell her about the backup they have ready in the inn, she tells him to get her the [Box of Incontinuity] as everyone left in the Palace holds the line as the soldiers of Rhir come at them. [[Zel Shivertail]] compliments them on their effort as he takes command and they push back the Rhirian soldiers, the defense reforms and hunkers down preparing for the next assault.

As ''"Better Days"'' [[Az’kerash]] runs he encounter with ''"Ten Years Later"'' Teriarch and Belavierr making a truce to join forces with one another until they escape, but before they go The Crone appears and the three immortals run away in fear. Az'kerash hears the the roar of [[The Goblin King]] which stops everyone in place as the three immortals recall a moment when they've engaged with a previous incarnate of a [[Goblin Kings|Goblin King]] in the past. Az'kerash being extorted for weapons by [[Velan]] after losing a duel, Teriarch in his cave being asked for a favor by Velan, and Belavierr in anger at [[Sóve]] for her breaking the contract the two had.

The Goblin King and The Crone meet, he slams her face into the wall a few times and lets her go, she disappears confirming that the Gods continue to exist in some form. The Goblin King ask the three immortals if they've seen the Gnoll child and if they know how many more Gods remain, tense from the situation the three ready themselves for a fight but they offer their support to help find the exit to which The Goblin King agrees to. Going through the most crowded area they kill all in their way trying to find Mrsha and the exit. Lyonette manages to ward off the four with something within the box making them detour around her, they then come across Zel holding the defense to the exit. The four mount their charge at the exit but a sudden sea of pink flames washes over them which injures them, Erin from the ''"Raft at Sea"'' door appears sacrificing her life-force to fuel the flames. The three immortals run in fear and shame leaving The Goblin King to fight Erin off, but he then gets launched away by ''"The Wandering Ship"'' from Raft Erin's bound skill, Erin then chases after Belavierr with ''"Ten Years Later"'' Teriarch getting reprimanded by Sheta for his cowardice and treachery. [[Rhisveri Zessoprical|Rhisveri]], [[Visophecin]] and [[Taletevirion]] go off to take care of The Necromancer.

As The Goblin King fights with [[Rabbiteater]] over control he encounters the Painted Antinium and starts to kill them, Encounter Pawn mourning the death of his Goddess The Goblin King attempts to kill the bug-man but fails to. Seeing an enemy Pawn orders to kill it and to find and guard Erin, seeing the power that faith-based classes have The Goblin King is able to feel that there are more Gods in the Palace.

As Raft Erin and her flames chase after the Witch of Webs she encounter Emir [[Yazdil Achakhei|Yazdil]], [[Iertalinam]] and servants of [[Roshal]], with her black flames of hatred douses the slavers and the door they came from. This allows Belavierr a chance to gain enough distance to find her quarry.

Root Mrsha trying to think of a solution to this mess meets with the ''"Better Days"'' [[Redfang Elite Warriors|Redfang 5]] trying to drag [[Headscratcher]] away from their portal, Headscratcher is depressed since ''"Better Days"'' Erin died but Root Mrsha accomplishes in motivating him to start moving again. Headscratcher ask [[Numbtongue]] the source of his sadness but the answer he receivers upsets him enough to start fighting with his brother. Belavierr comes rushing in but Headscratcher manages to waylay her as the rest there start their assault on the Witch. Using the powers of sadness and other similar emotions Belavierr thwarts their efforts and captures Root Mrsha, she starts to coerce them to let her leave but Root Mrsha taunts her by saying that with hope and the doors that there will be a way. Uncertain Belavierr checks around but finds nothing other than a group of undead coming, giving a triumphant smile to the little Gnoll Belavierr is then pounced on by a ghoul who pushes her away from Root Mrsha. Following the [[Florist]] are 6 [[Redfang Tribe|Redfang]] goblins and with their additional support giving Erin enough time to arrive to burn the witch with her flames. The two groups of Redfangs, those who lived and most of those that originally died, address each other and introduce the Florist as they travel to the exit while Root Mrsha continues in the search for the rest of the others. The group of Goblins meet Zel at the exit and they exchange information, Zel manages to defend seven entryways to the exit but feels that it is only the start. Receiving reports from [[Valceif Godfrey|Valceif]] and other [[Couriers]] about what is happening in the halls of the Palace, they're informed that there's a bunch of Creler filled worlds being held back by 6 Dragons.

Not willing to run Teriarch continues to fight against the [Heroes] of Rhir yet the [[Blighted King]] and 100 more [Heroes] arrive with means of killing Dragons accompanying them. Teriarch then hears his voice from behind and sees two more clones of himself who drag him back to a more defensible position, the Teriarchs from ''"Better Days"'' and ''"Ten Years Later"'' say they've returned to help because of Sheta and tells Teriarch to retreat as they go on to fight crelers.

Flos faces off against the Crelers as they try to make their way to the exit and encounters an elder Creler making them retreat as there is a second elder behind the first. After [[Drevish]] manages to shift the halls to show the exit they charge into the defensive line, as Zel fights [[Mars]] and [[Queravia]] maneuvers their forces to block a flanking attack, [[Sserys]] using the nature of the Palace switches to the other side and rushes into Flos's army. Sserys is kicked aside by Mars as he tries to attack Flos making the two forces reconvene themselves, seeing the old [Spear of Drakes] Zel clothlines him and commands the [[Izril]] Alliance from the [[First Antinium War]] to form a defensive line. Zel reveals the truth of how the [[Walled Cities]] treated him after knowing his big secret following in the same steps as his dead lover, Sserys goes on to show the two Zel Shivertails his love by kissing them out in the open in front of everyone who can see.

Receiving news from Lyonette that a massive horde of Crelers plus multiple other armies are coming their way, Sserys orders to form battle lines but a single attack from Rhir's army showed how outmatched they are from the impending swarm. Seeing no other option Lyonette plans to use her secret weapon within the box but [[Marquin]] appears and tells her that it was the Gnoll girl who opened the crack wider with a root that allowed her to come here. Taking command of everyone Marquin yells to all who can hear her to fight against the Creler menace, they listen while Marquin tell Lyonette to go find her daughters.

As all fight against the crelers [[Mauridekash Lauthezaum Shorre]] fights an elder Creler which causes enough havoc to create a moment for the dead Gods to start their devouring of the Dragons and the rest. Flos noticing something wrong tries to command his forces to stop charging but is consumed by The Crone, [[Norechl]] chases after any and all iterations of [[Ryoka Griffin|Ryoka]] and her loved ones just for the satisfaction it provided. Aiming for [[Hethon Veltras|Hethon]], Norechl's hand encounters the hand of The Goblin King and then the God of the Lost gets split in half and tossed down the corridor landing on the other Gods. Seeing five dead Gods, The Goblin King starts to attack them dealing superficial damage to them, using the way Gods fight The Goblin King is able to cause true damage to the God of Rulers. One by one The Goblin King is able to fight against the Gods but against all at once is too much for him so he decides to leave for the exit.

Mars tries to defend what remains of the Seven from The Crone as she taunts them for their insignificance, Tolveilouka appears behind The Crone impaling her with his crimson katana and launches her with a punch to the face. The Crone sets out to subject Tolveilouka to her authority over death but in great defiance Tolveilouka strikes her again as he slowly dies.

The Maiden watches the collapse of the [Palace of Fates] as the other Gods consume the souls viewing the whole thing as wasteful and pitiable. Seeing all the manifestation of Deaths that have come to see, The Maiden tells them of how she went against what she represents and what is happening should have never been possible in the first place. She begs for a favor from the many Deaths for a fitting tool to end it all, of what was offered to her, The Maiden chooses the Reaper's Scythe as her tool of choice.

As the Crone reaches for what remains of Tolveilouka, The Maiden swings the scythe slicing at The Crone's divinity, The Crone flees but DEATH FOLLOWED.

Goblin Lords

2026-01-16T18:32:46Z

Wymae: /* Overview */

A '''Goblin Lord''' is an especially powerful [[Goblins|Goblin]] or [[Hobgoblins|Hobgoblin]].

== Overview==
{{quote
|quote=''They appear to be a naturally occurring phenomenon, a rare individual born out of the Goblin population that has immeasurable talent... [...] Such is their threat that Goblin Lords are actively hunted down to prevent them from becoming Goblin Kings.''
|speaker= ''The History of the Second Antinium War'' by [[Krsysl Wordsmith]]
}}Within the Goblin social hierarchy, Goblin Lords rank higher than Chieftains and Shamans and lower than [[Goblin Kings]]. The very presence of a Goblin Lord can attract entire tribes and Chieftains under their command,<ref>{{VERef|3.28 G}}</ref> though ultimately it is the individuals' choice whether they want to fall under the Goblin Lord's command.

All Goblins have the potential to become Goblin Lords. The exact criteria for becoming a Goblin Lord is unknown, but it involves obtaining the [Goblin Lord] class, which overrides the normal class progression. The announcement is also shown to be a shade of green, different from the one used for announcements of original classes and Skills ([Conditions Overridden: Goblin Lord class obtained.])

It will also assign a subclass, seemingly using a secondary class possessed by the new Goblin Lord. If the Goblin Lord is not allied in a meaningful capacity with anything, ''Unaffiliated'' is shown between braces. For example:
*[Goblin Lord {Unaffiliated} – “Rabbiteater of Champions”]

If there is an affiliation, it is shown in brackets, for example:
*[Goblin Lord (Solstice) – “Rags of Change”]

And if the Goblin Lord is subservient to a Goblin King, the King's title, along with the Goblin Lord's rank is shown, for example:
*[2nd Goblin Lord of the Goblin King of Betrayal – Ragathsi of Civilization]

There is an ideological split between the older and younger Goblin Lords pertaining Goblin Kings. While the desire for a Goblin King is inherent in every Goblin, most of the older Goblin Lords have refused to follow the Goblin Kings whenever one rises, viewing them as mad and trapped by the past. Greydath is the exception, having served [[Curulac]] and [[Velan]], and still continues to seach for a Goblin King to the present day.<ref name=":0">[[Interlude - The Isles of Goblin and Minos]]</ref>

==Trivia==

*Greydath is the oldest of the Goblin Lords currently alive.
*[[Ulvama]] claims there are five "important" Goblin Lords, one for each continent, and the Isle of Goblins, with [[Rhir]] being the exception.<ref>{{VERef|10.18 E}}</ref>
**These would be Izikere, Greydath, Kanadith, and two unknown Lords for Chandrar and Terandria respectively, one of whom is named "Wirothe."<ref>{{VERef|10.36 - (Pt. 1)}}</ref> The Goblin Lord of Terandria is described as 'hidden'.
***Ragathsi of Civilizations claimed that the last Goblin Lord of Chandrar was killed by the King of Destruction, suggesting that Wirothe is name of the Terandrian Goblin Lord.
*King [[Velan]] had nine Goblin Lords in his entourage.<ref name="AW3" />
*Rabbiteater theorized, that the [Goblin Lord] class is automatically assigned when a Goblin achieves Level 40.<ref>{{VERef|10.22 R}}</ref> This is refuted by Numbtongue, who did not become a Lord after Level 40, and Redscar who choose to reject it twice.
*In an alternate timeline where [[Headscratcher]] and [[Shorthilt]] didn't die, Headscratcher became the Goblin Lord of Sorrows.<ref>{{VERef|10.26 MM}}</ref>
*In a alternate timeline where [[Erin Solstice|Erin]] is still dead, [[Rags]] became the Goblin Lord of Dreams.<ref>{{VERef|10.30 GGMG}}</ref>

== Appearance ==
He had a pale complexion,<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/02/10/4-11/ Chapter 4.11]</ref> with glowing black eyes and white pupils. He was a bit taller than the average Goblin, but smaller than a Hob,<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/06/11/2-29/ Chapter 2.35]</ref> the size of the average Human, but not built like a warrior.<ref name=":4.46">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/06/16/4-46/ Chapter 4.46]</ref>

== Personality==
Reiss was an erudite more than a warrior. He had dreams of peace and safety for goblins, and was willing to do anything to see these dreams come to fruition including attempting to murder other goblins as much as it pained him to do so.

== Background ==
Reiss was a member of the [[Ghostly Hand Tribe]] which specialized in [[Necromancers|Necromancy]]. He also lived for a long time in exile and studied under [[Az’kerash]]. He eventually returned and took over his tribe by killing the [Shaman]-Chieftain of the Ghostly Hands. The other [Shamans] followed him afterwards. Reiss continued to conquer more Goblin Tribes in Southern Izril, among them the [[Broken Spear Tribe]] and many smaller ones.

When the Necromancer found the Goblin Lord, he noticed that the Goblin knew how to read, which is the reason he took an interest in him. Reiss taught himself before and after Az'kerash trained him. The mage gave him [[spellbooks]] and scrolls, and the Goblin Lord learned from them all.<ref name=":4.46" />

[[File:Chandrar_Detail_Map.png|thumb|200px|Detail Map of northeastern Chandrar (Artistic rendition), Khelt to the west of Reim]]
'''Khelt,''' also known as the '''Necrocracy of Khelt''', is a kingdom of northwestern [[Chandrar]]. Its symbol is a skeletal hand holding a golden coin.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/11/28/9-68/ Chapter 9.68]</ref>

== Overview ==
Considered to be one of the few utopias in the world, Khelt is famous for its heavy use of [[Necromancers|Necromancy]], relying on undead as for labor and military. Housing and food is free for the common citizen, and there are no laws requiring them to work.<ref name=":Revenant and the Naga" /> The capital is [[Edojaf]].

It lies to the west of [[Reim]] in a distance that can be covered easily in two days.<ref name=":5">[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/11/02/6-54-k/ Chapter 6.54 K]</ref> In its east, there is only the Zeikhal Desert and beyond that the [[Empire of Sands]].<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/05/07/6-14-k/ Chapter 6.14 K]</ref>

Water is the most important resource of Khelt. It is either produced with Oasis Tears, delivered by magic such as hydromancy, or imported from other countries. The 'spent' water is stored for another use in large caverns.<ref name="6.55K">[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/11/05/6-55-k/ Chapter 6.55 K]</ref>

== History ==
The nation of Khelt was founded by [[Khelta]] twenty-one thousand years ago.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/02/23/8-66/ Chapter 8.66]</ref> She settled it bordering the Great Zeikhal Desert so that other nations would not covet the land.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/06/07/9-01/ Chapter 9.01]</ref> As an extremely accomplished [Necromancer], Khelta created the pact that provides Khelt's undead legions and workforce.

The third [King] of Khelt was Thekheldan, in whose reign Khelt nearly fell from the apathy and excesses which were customary among the living citizens of Khelt.<ref>{{VERef|6.55 K}}</ref> This necessitated reforms, which proved successful.

Khelt has suffered the attacks of [[Vampires]] when those ruled the world and briefly held Chandrar. Khelt fought back along with the Shield Kingdoms of the era and every other nation of Chandrar, and the continent was the first to drive out Vampires. This period in history may have happened during the reign of Khelt's fifth ruler, Serept, as he had forged weapons and armor to combat Vampires.<ref name=":2">[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/09/13/7-46-k/ Chapter 7.46 K]</ref>

Khelt's seventh ruler, King Dolenm, solved the nation's water problem and ended the risk of thirst. During that time period, Khelt pursued the arts, and Dolenm stole artworks from other nations so his citizens could copy them.

During the rule of its ninth ruler, His-Xe, and the reign of Queen Akhta, Khelt waged wars of expansion, annexing neighbouring nations and invading other continents. Annexed nations were offered anything they could want except freedom. The [[Isles of Minos]] <ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/10/27/8-49-m-revised/ Chapter 8.49 M]</ref>and the [[Circle of Thorns]] fought back against Khelt in those periods.

During the Creler Wars, Khelt used the Rites of the Revenant, opening three of its tombs to fight back against the [[Crelers]]. Other nations also let them create Razzimir's Arrows.

There have been periods where Khelt bowed to outside [Rulers] and lost its sovereignty, though they would eventually regain their independence. The latest of these took place recently when [[Flos Reimarch]] became the King of Destruction and Fetohep was forced to pay him tribute in food, coin and allowed a thousand citizens to join Flos' armies. Khelt became independent again when Flos's supreme reign over Chandrar ended.<ref name="6.55K"/> Fetohep resolved to never allow Flos that influence again.

== Chronology ==
Khelt sent armies into Reim after Flos awoke. The [[Quarass]] and [[Trey Atwood]] was sent to help negotiate an end to hostilities.<ref name=":5" />

The Blighted Kingdom's ritual on the Summer Solstice took three unborn children in Khelt.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/06/10/9-46-s/ Chapter 9.46 S]</ref>

To fight back against the invasion of her nation, Queen [[Jecaina Leysars|Jecaina]] of [[Jecrass]] sold over a fourth of her lands to Khelt, including several rivers. Khelt declared war on [[Medain]] to secure its new territory and aid its ally, demanding the release of King [[Raelt Leysars|Raelt]].<ref name=":8.08 J" />

Fetohep personally went to defeat Medain, but was opposed by a knight crusade from [[Terandria]], the [[Claiven Earth]]'s army, and Medain's Named Adventurers. This would be the first time Khelt's ruler was seen slain in battle, though it was just a body double puppeteered by Fetohep.

Following the reveal that Fetohep was alive and well, he unleashed Khelt's greater armies. Khelt claimed two Named [[adventurers|Aventurers]] and a Named-rank team. The Rites of the Revenant were used again, opening first three tombs, and later the remaining two.<ref name=":1" />

Following the Days of Return, three [[Gnolls|Gnoll]] tribes were offered citizenship and settled in Khelt. These are the [[Decles tribe]], Satest Fletching tribe, and Gembows tribe.<ref name=":4">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/11/29/9-26-f/ Chapter 9.26 F]</ref> However, Khelt also lost its vast army due to the souls disappearing, but must keep up the illusion of strength and prosperity lest it be attacked in its moment of weakness. The nation is subtly preparing for shortages and hard times.<ref name=":4" />

== Government ==
Khelt has a monarchy government where the ruler becomes a [[Revenants|Revenant]] [Undying King/Queen] in succession. It is traditional for rulers of Khelt to abandon their surnames as they serve their nations with no personal bias.<ref name=":8.08 J">[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/02/17/8-08-j/ Chapter 8.08 J]</ref> Ordinarily, the close companions of a ruler would also be turned into Revenants to keep them company through the centuries.<ref name=":Revenant and the Naga" />

== Military ==

=== Former Strength ===
Khelt's ruler has absolute command over the undead workforce and armies. The armies consist of, according to several assessments, endless numbers of undead who can be raised from the ground at the will of the Khelt's ruler. The numbers of undead are so vast that 40,000 skeleton warriors are considered a message.<ref name="6.55K" />

Within Khelt’s land the Undead warriors are stronger, faster, ''deadlier,'' and imbued with the knowledge of combat. But elsewhere they become mindless and weaker, as Khelt's ruler’s power extended across their domain and weakened with every mile. Khelt's ruler could still send them to attack their enemies, but they would most probably get lost to the desert, turned into an undead horde that might well attack someone else or simply be lost. As such Khelt's ruler has to rely on politics and gold abroad, like [Assassins] to kill their enemies outside the kingdom. But within, even the King of Destruction would be wary invading Khelt.<ref name=":Revenant and the Naga" />

Only when Khelt's ruler personally leads the army out of its borders do the Undead warriors retain their strength and control.<ref name=":8.08 J" />

There are living people within Khelt's armies, referred to as Scourge Forerunners. They are citizens that have been granted the right to lead undead.<ref name=":3" />

Khelt has also retained much of its relics of the past, unlike many other nations. Armaments to slay Vampires, gemstone weapons forged by Serept,<ref name=":2" /> and powerful potions and alchemical treasures stored within the Apothricarium.<ref name=":Revenant and the Naga" /> Bone giants,<ref name=":8.08 J" /> the corpses of Half-Giants, and the corpses of great beasts are among the greater undead it can bring to bear. Furthermore, Khelt's undead soldiers can be sacrificed to create other greater undead, such as Abominations of Bone.<ref name=":3" />

Some of the Revenant champions of previous rulers were entombed in order to aid Khelt in the future, should an emergency arise. Those revenants were the [Vizier] [[Hecrelunn|Hecreluum]], the [Champion of War] [[Salui]], the Honor Guard of Serept comprised of 20 Half-Giant warriors, 60 Scourgeriders with one unchained [[Djinni]], and the Kheltian flagship ''[[Sand at Sea]]'' and its crew.

The mightiest undead Khelt could field aside from Revenants are undead Jaws of Zeikhal and the undead corpse of [[Zirconia]] the Ash Giantess.<ref name=":0" />A Jaw of Zeikhal can explode in a wave of death magic, and convert the area two thousand feet around it into deadlands.<ref name=":3">[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/06/06/8-26-fk/ Chapter 8.26 FK]</ref>One of the Jaws is equipped with a shrine of bone containing liquid essence of undeath, which changes the magical aura of surrounding undead, granting them [Invisibility] or [Speed] among other powers.<ref name=":0" /> Khelt possessed seven Jaw of Zeikhal corpses, though previous rulers suggested they could've fielded at least eight, once.<ref name=":1">[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/07/25/8-32/ Chapter 8.32]</ref>

During the [[Crelers|Creler]] Wars, Khelt developed a long range magical artillery weapon called Razzimir’s Arrows. It can launch a Tier 6 spell such as a giant [Arrow of Light] spell<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/10/8-78-f/ Chapter 8.78 F]</ref> and can strike other continents from Khelt.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/11/02/9-23-ggggggggg/ Chapter 9.23 GGGGGGGGG]</ref> Khelt has other spell scrolls with intercontinental range, including some that can summon living war monsters.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/11/22/9-66/ Chapter 9.66]</ref>

The destruction of an army of Khelt's undead can be used to fuel the creation of a Graven Passage with their combined death magic. The Graven Passage looks like a great dais of bone, and is a portal that only the undead can use. It connects to another Graven Passage in Khelt, allowing them to instantly move their armies across great distances.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-84/ Chapter 8.84]</ref>

=== Current Strength ===
Khelt has been severely weakened by recent events.

Because of the loss of the souls which animated the undead following the Days of Return, Khelt currently has no army. Only some undead that were animated by [Necromancers] are still active, and even then, their reactions are slower.<ref name=":4" /> Khelt lost control of its four remaining Jaws of Zeikhal,<ref name=":6">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/11/26/9-67-pt-1/ Chapter 9.67 (Pt. 1)]</ref> and the only remaining Revenants are the crew of ''Sand at Sea''.

King Izimire had spent much of the Apothricarium's potions during his reign. Every intercontinental scroll has been spent, effectively de-fanging Khelt overseas.<ref name=":6" />

== Culture ==
All citizens are encouraged to pursue whatever passion and destiny they like, while food and shelter and many services are provided by the undead laborers. Among that is cooking, attending the king and occasional guests. Some even eschew classes to pursue various hobbies. One of the actually necessary jobs in Khelt is [Magistrate], in order to keep the peace and administer laws.<ref name=":4" />

The citizens of Khelt work for four days a week, and much less time than people of other nations. Physical work is not required. However, after their death, their bodies are reanimated to serve for menial labor. For that reason, there are no slaves in Khelt, the owning of which is illegal. After the Days of Return and the weakening of the undead force, citizens are encouraged to do menial labor as Commended Volunteers, with mixed results as some simply leave their task when they get tired of it.

They utilize a barter economy within Khelt, with the occasional fad currency.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/06/04/interlude-trade-and-travel/ Interlude - Trade and Travel]</ref>

=== Citizenship ===
Citizens may leave Khelt if they wish, but this revokes their citizenship and birthrights. They may return to Khelt, but all immigrants (not only former emigrants) are required to bring something worthwhile into the Kingdom.<ref name="6.55K" />

== Notable Citizens ==

* [[Adoive]] (''Exiled'')
*[[Alked Fellbow]] - Named adventurer
* [[Colovt]] - farmer
* [[Frieke]] - Named adventurer
* [[Pewerthe]] - potter, heir to the throne
* Teveti - [Magistrate]

== Trivia ==

* Khelt is ''technically'' at war with about six Terandrian Kingdoms.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/12/06/interlude-the-innkeepers-knight/ Interlude – The Innkeeper’s Knight]</ref>
* Currently there are 200 half-Elves living in Khelt.<ref name=":Revenant and the Naga" />
*There is a town in Khelt that allows nudity.<ref>[[Chapter 8.78 F|Chapter 8.78]]</ref>

'''Interlude – Satar''' is the 82nd chapter of [[Volume 8]].

== tl;dr ==

* [[Satar Silverfang]] does a Retelling in front of the tribes about [[Raskghar|Raskghars]] and [[Doombearers]].
* Satar is revealed to be an [Archival Storyteller] and is told the secret of [[Mrsha du Marquin]] and the [[Earthers]] by Shaman [[Cetrule]].
* Chieftain [[Xherw]] asks [[Yelroan]] to investigate whether [[Qwera]] is a doombringer. Yelroan figures out that Mrsha is the doombringer, but keeps her secret.
* The issue of the Raskghar and Earthers is presented among the Meeting of Tribes by the [[Silverfang Tribe]]. It is learned that there are more Raskghar in hiding underground.
* Satar notices inconsistencies in the narrative about doombringers, and investigates by hearing more stories from various Shamans.
* Mrsha asks [[Fetohep]] to help Gnolls find more written accounts about them. Various nations are contacted about this, and all the accounts are collected by Satar.
* The issue of Earthers is discussed among the tribe as a threat.
* Shaman [[Theikha]], along with Satar, [[Gireulashia Ekhtouch|Gire,]] Yelroan, [[Adetr Steelfur|Adetr]], and [[Feshi Weatherfur|Feshi]] creates a new combination skill, [The World of You and Me], to allow the Gnolls to be able to view Earth and its culture in its entirety rather than percieve it through warfare exclusively. Satar upgrades her class and begins to document Earth.

'''Colthei Lacment''', or '''Colth''' for short, is a Named-rank Adventurer in [[Izril]]. He is famous for being the world's greatest [Supporter].

== Appearance ==
He has a rare<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/11/05/9-24/ Chapter 9.24]</ref> brownish-green hair, pale violet eyes, and despite being in his early thirties he looked younger than he is, like five years younger.<ref name=":2">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/02/04/9-36-ho/ Chapter 9.36 HO]</ref>

His adventuring gear is mithril chainmail over leather armor and carries a diverse variety of gear on his belt to be properly prepared,<ref name=":0" /> making him look like some kind of wandering [Peddler].<ref name=":2" />

== Personality ==
His is extremely friendly and makes it his duty to know any adventurer he can.<ref name=":0" /> Despite his age, he acts much younger than his peers. He can work himself into a group and take up what they are doing with natural talent. However, Colth has a hidden dark side, which often manifests as a sinister smile. He constantly lives with the fear that he is living a lie, stemming from his time as a [Slave] under [[Yazdil Achakhei]], who used illusions and magic to give Colth false memories.<ref name=":3">[[Chapter 9.69 H (Pt. 2)]]</ref>

Whenever he works with someone, he has a habit of calling them "Boss," even if they are lower in rank. Whenever he enters a city, he learns from local experts.<ref name=":1">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/02/04/9-36-ho/ Chapter 9.36 HO]</ref>

== Background ==
Colth was a Silver-ranked adventurer when he teamed up with Beatist's Brawlers to take on an alpha pack of Cericel. All of the members of the team were killed in the first few minutes of the enouter, but he single-handedly defeated most of the pack. He was elevated to Named-rank status on that day.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/10/26/9-21/ Chapter 9.21]</ref>

A few years ago, in Chandrar, Colth killed a [Slaver] in self-defense, and unknowingly violated Roshal's laws. He was bought by [[Yazdil Achakhei|Emir Yazdil]], and served six years as his [Slave]. He was sent to [[Rhir]] to infiltrate both the [[Blighted Kingdom]] and the [[Demon Kingdom]]; while he succeeded in the former, he encountered the three remaining [[Deathless]]. They undid Yazdil's spells and removed his [Slave] class, thus freeing him.<ref name=":3" />

Colth was involved with three women - twice before Chandrar, and once afterwards - or at least tried to. Each time, he used his Skills to help them out, but they all became big-headed on their newfound success and finding a new fiancé or cheated on him. However, rumors would spread of him being divorced three times.
