(The Rise of Sabbath (Oct. 2021)
After multiple Vexians had been lured to the Dark Forest, it was revealed on the day of the Bloodmoon Festival that a leader had risen among the dead for the first time in history. Sabbath, the self-proclaimed “King of Hallowed”, took multiple living Vexians hostage in order to catch the attention of King Xeno and announce his rise to power. This would simply be the first stepping stone in an unfortunate series of events…
The Lost City of Valantis (Dec. 2021)
After coming home from an ocean-bound expedition, Venox’s most (in)famous merchant returns to land claiming to have seen a beast in the ocean’s waters. Alistair gathers a team of adventurers in order to search for the beast, and comes across a figure in the water after venturing out into uncharted waters. The figure rises from the ocean, and is revealed to be King Cyrus, the ruler of the ocean-dwelling Division known as Varines!
The Summer Solstice (Aug. 2022)
Each year, Vexians of all Divisions gather in the city of Vaylor to celebrate the King’s coronation. However, on the fifth anniversary of King Xeno’s reign, the royal prophet Seraph received a vision in the midst of the ceremony ; he suddenly became possessed by the sun God, Leodon, as an eclipse occurred. Leodon commanded the people of Venox to show their loyalty to him by giving him an offering with meaning, and then commanded that the same be done for his wife & children in order to prove that the people of Venox were “worthy” of a divine gift.
After proving their loyalty to the Gods, the Vexians within Vaylor watched in awe as the clouds parted in the sky, revealing a golden gate. A Vexian emerged from the gates & descended, revealing himself to be the Lord of the Divine, and explained he was a representative for his people, who wished to coexist peacefully with the other Divisions. Many speculate, however, that the Divine’s appearance after years of isolation can only mean that there is danger on the horizon…
The Blood Moon Battle (Oct. 2022)
As the blood moon rose into the night sky and Vexians began to celebrate Hallowed Nights, strange things began to occur, and many Vexians began to report their concerns to the Royals. As the night continued, more reports began to come in, until eventually a large gathering of Halloweds was spotted on the horizon. At the head of the group was Sabbath, the self-proclaimed “King of The Hallowed,” who quickly commanded his following to attack the partygoers.The Royals quickly leapt into action in order to protect their subjects, with King Xeno facing Sabbath directly, the two coming face-to-face in the town’s center.
A battle between the two ensued, with fur and teeth flying in every which direction, only to come to an abrupt climax when King Xeno plunged his sword into the Hallowed and cried out: “It’s time we settle this, once and for all, brother.”
After facing a near-fatal injury, Sabbath and his following retreated back to the forest, with Sabbath’s final words being: “This is not the last you will see of me, brother.” Since then, Hallowed sightings have been rare, but many speculate that this is not the last time Venox will see the Hallowed King…
