The Unmending

For nigh on a thousand years preceding the Eleven Kingdoms, religion ruled over Erith. Hundreds of factions fought for sway over the people. Many of these causes were honourable and upstanding and improved the lives of those who followed them. Some were intent on causing chaos and mayhem on the mortal plane, completing the orders of their shadowy 'gods'. The Faith of Mixowas was one such religion. After years of forming an underground cult and gaining power, the Faith succeeded in gaining the attention of a god-like demon. This was not the god they had planned for and soon this creature, known only as Great Flame tore through the ranks of all Kingdoms, killing huge swathes of the populous.

The Faith of Mixowas admitted to their fault and asked for the aid of all kingdoms in order to reverse the summoning of so great a demon. Most were wary of this group and so sent lower ranked soldiers in the pace of their kingdom leaders. Some sent leaders however. Among them was Edmund Sleetguard I (father to Leopold Sleetguard II) and Weilgus Haddow, father to Xentar Haddow II and Roth Hawksplitter current ruler of the Eleven Kingdoms.

Once all were gathered, the Faith of Mixowas dealt their hand. The creature was summoned to their location, Foreland, now known as Traitor's Bay).

It was a massacre and soon most of the human forces had been obliterated. Haddow managed to stay alive and valiantly fought alongside Sleetguard and Hawksplitter. Sleetguard fell in combat to the demon and Hawksplitter was thrown from the battle. Haddow called upon his god and with a valiant strike killed the demon, releasing a giant cloud of souls into the air. Haddow claims these were souls that had been stolen by Great Flame which were returning to where they belong.

Haddow and Hawksplitter returned victorious to The Sanguine Lands where they were lauded as heroes. They worked together to set up the Eleven Kingdoms and formed the unified Realm of Erith in order to protect against such creatures in the future. As another precautionary measure, all religion was banned from practice.

A special branch of the Obsidianis known as The Obcrisca are tasked with destroying all elements of the Faith of Mixowas. They continue to operate in secret all over the Realm.
