The Icathian thaumaturges were the magicians of the earth and the rock, charged during the last days of the city to dig out a weapon that would turn the tide in favor of the nation. | The Icathian thaumaturges were the magicians of the earth and the rock, charged during the last days of the city to dig out a weapon that would turn the tide in favor of the nation. | ||
A great and terrible battle was fought against the Void before the walls of the ancient Icathia. In the end, the lands around the ruined city became devastated areas, and even its existence was swept away from Shurima's maps. There was a hope, perhaps naive, that the horrors released there would one day be forgotten. | |||
One of the few ways to fight The Void is to let it starve. Without any organic or magical supplies around, the Void's material growth slows down - until it finally enters a state of numbness. | |||
On the outskirts of Icathia is located The Rupture, the greatest evidence of the rise of The Void from the depths of the earth, in an era long forgotten. Although both brave and curious have repeatedly tried to discover more about them, only the most stubborn explorers would venture into the dark spaces of the depths. | |||
= The Fall of Icathia = | |||
At the start of the Icathian rebellion against Shurima, the reformed Kohari order was rebuilt with the objective of retaking and liberating the city. The city was full of screams from all sides, while angry mobs chased and murdered every Shurimans officer they could find. The resentment for centuries of humiliating laws designed to eradicate Icathian culture - as well as the brutal executions of those who violated those laws - reached its peak on a bloody day filled with violence. No matter the function and importance, all those who served the Sun-Emperor were killed. | |||
The effigies of the Sun, symbol of Shuriman domination, were torn from the rooftops and crushed by the crowds in applause. The Shurimans writings were incinerated, and their treasures plundered while the statues of the past emperors were desecrated in a last act of rebellion. | |||
The day after the massacre, an army of bricklayers and thaumaturges were erecting freshly dug granite blocks in the city, ten thousand men and women were recruited to defend the city, mostly armed with axes, picks, and spears and wearing beaten leather armor. | |||
Three high-level infantry blocks formed most of its front line. Shurimans corpses were impaled on stakes stuck in the ground, and carrion birds surrounded the top. Priests surrounded these stakes, and each of them drew complex patterns in the air with their stellar metal staffs. | |||
The Sun-Emperor soon went to Icathia with five armies, each with tens of thousands of men, siege machines, wizards, and at the heart of the armies, Nine Ascended, divine warriors armored in bronze and jade. | |||
During the bloody battle that would decimate the Icathians, the pavilion exploded with traces of light. Purple energy ties ripped through the sky and lashed it like waves breaking reality. The force of the explosion threw everyone to the ground. The sky, once bright and blue, was now the color of a week-long bruise. The unnatural twilight dominated. A nightmare light, purple and blue, suffocated the world, pressing from above and blossoming from somewhere below. | |||
A chasm that bled purple light was torn between the Shurimanes, and Setaka was taken by lashings of matter. She fought to free herself with violent movements of her sword, but the power of The Void was too much for her. The pulsating, bright light spread over his body like a hideous cocoon. Slippery coils rise from the earth or from the air itself to seize the flesh of mortals. Men and women were dragged and involved, bodies dissolved as the tentacles of dirty energy dominated them. | |||
At the end of the battle, the city was devastated by The Void, its inhabitants consumed by the rift or dispersed, and the land was marked forever by that event. | |||
