Race(s): Dwarves, Orc slaves.
Color: Black
Fluff: The dwarven nation of Kedesh is a rigid theocracy dedicated to infernal deities who slumber deep within the earth. Its ruling caste, one part priest, one part sorcerer, and one part engineer, have learned to bind summoned demons into metal, using their might to power fearsome arcane machinery. The dwarves of Kedesh dedicate themselves to magic, science, and craftsmanship, leaving menial labor to their brutalized Orcish slaves.

Eccentricities:
[Wizard-mystics]: The Church of Pure-Ocean is run by the priestly elite, to whom ley-magic holds all the answers. Magic research gets a bonus, but technology research takes a hit.
[Dangerous Bounty]: The seas of this Nibiru teem with life, and the Church has a much easier time harvesting food. But the ocean is a dangerous place, and many creatures on the island come to the shoreline to drink…

By order of the Prophet-King Angeloi:
While the six-point plan is progressing excelently it is not yet complete. With this in mind, I will revise it slightly, make a "eight point plan", if you will. I will add one clause covering the defense of the island. (to be instituted at a later date)

1. It has also come to my attention that the royal finances are lacking. And as we require more funds to build a defense force, we must deign to trade with a devolved version of humanity. Though I know many of you object, we cannot neglect our lesser brothers in this way. In addition to being beneficial to us, it may also come to pass that we may eventually elevate them to our level... (Trade route to Niron)

"Huh?"

These were the last words spoken by the Bacatian leader before their head was struck off like a sports ball by Genneg Khaahk, who charged straight into the palace of the beleaguered, dying nation, the lax security giving him little trouble. As it rolled lifeless on the floor, the city around it bucked and burned and crumbled: towers were being knocked down like dominoes by the siege weaponry, everything wooden was set ablaze, and anyone who had not fled the disaster was in the midst of being skinned and butchered for their flesh.

The Khaahk grabbed the head, and paraded it on the streets atop a long stick. Today was a glorious day for the Barbabrab Clans, as they finally made well on their promise and destroyed their first civilization. A religious doctrine of sorts was forged from this affair: they were to be the ones destined to unite the peoples of this tortured planet, through forcing them out of their civilized nations or killing them trying. They were The Scourge of God. The Khaahk gave a speech.

"Энэ өдөp бид caлж дэлхийн нэг хэcэг гэpэл нь ямap нэг дyyдaж бaйcaн "nationhood"! Хapaaч энэ "хүн". Tэдний boastful гэдгийг бaтaлж coeл иpгэншил бaйcaн илүү тэдний aмьдpaл? Хaaнa юм бэ, тэднийг yдиpдaх вэ? Tэд ч гэcэн хүн, эcвэл тэдгээp нь биш үхэp нь хэн бaйнa нядлaх, идэж!" (On this day, we have rid the world of a single section of the blight that is what one would call "nationhood"! Look at these "people". Their boastful claims that civilization would better their lives? Where did that lead them? Are they still people, or are they not cattle who has been slaughtered and eaten!)

The horde cackled and laughed. The Khaahk continued.

"Зөвшөөpөх тэдний insolence cypгaмж бoлoх бүх бaйcaн хүмүүc зүйл мaш! Гэcэн хэдий ч, нэг тэмдэглүүштэй зүйл бoл тэдний тaлaap үнэ цэнэтэй хaдгaлaх. Tэдний yдиpдaгч, мэдмээp тэдний yдиpдaгч cүүлчийн үг бaйнa yy? "Хөх"! Бaйcaн бүх бoлoх тyхaй хэлж тэдний өв бaйгaa нь бyцaaх, "Хөх!" Энэ үeэc эхлэн ypaгшaa, тэp нь бaйх бoлнo, бидний нэp. Бид Barbabrab ямap ч илүү, хapин бид Huh!" (Let their insolence be a lesson to all those who would thing so! And yet, there is one notable thing about them worth preserving. Their leader, would you like to know their leader's last words? "Huh"! That was all they could say about their legacy being undone, "Huh!" From this point onward, that shall be our name. We are Barbabrab no more, but we are the Huh!)

Guttural cheering and roaring laughter commenced from the newly dubbed Huh, who in their hysteria furthered to demolish the accomplishments of Bacatia, who would soon be nothing more than another scattered ruin. A stuffed toy, one which once belonged to a child, sat behind the backdrop of death and destruction. It did so briefly before it was crushed beneath the wheel of a Huh war engine.

Duke Gerard uth Matoi dismounts and removes his helmet. He is bald, and a network of intricate tattoos cover the bald skull of the ma. Tiana's eyes can just make out that it is not a mere pattern, but a long chain of words though the text is too fine for her to make it. The Duke steps before the Duchess and bows his head, though he does not move his eyes from her to the ground. He holds the bow for a few moments, then straightens.

"As my herald called, I am Duke Matoi. I've been sent here because we two are the last bastions of civilization to be found on this side of the world. The Dragon Emperor is concerned over the destruction of Bacatia to your south and the dissolution of the Golden Realms to our west." The Duke shifts uncomfortably and looks around at the wooden city. His Drake bristles and snaps at a centaur wandering too close, purely a warning snap. "The taint of Chaos lies within the troglodytes to your West and in the marauders to the south. If they are not stopped civilization dies with us. I, for one, am not interested in the expiration of my people. I doubt, Duchess, that you are any different."

None of the other members of his entourage had dismounted. Most remained wary, but politely left their lances pointed safely in the air where their streamers could snap with the wind. They were also careful to maintain strict control of the viscous and violent beasts they rode on. The Duke continued after a brief pause. "In the interest of the survival of civilization and progress we must work together. If we attempt to combat Chaos separately we will be defeated and our peoples will cease to exist. We both have knowledge, forces, and items that could be of use to the other." As if on queue one of the rider did then dismount - the herald. This rider took a cloth wrapped gift from the side of his mount and rushed politely to the Duke's flank. The man knelt on both knees to the Duke, holding the item up so he could grab it easily.

The Duke presents the package to the Duhess then. Taking it from the hands of his herald he presents it with a bowed head to the Duchess. Within the cloth is a large sword, one roughly of use for the centaur leader. The blade is of bright polished steel. A gold crossguard is made with the two open mouths of drake to either end, and the pommel is a dragon's claw holding a large red ruby. The blade is of the most interest. Along the fuller it glows with a reddish orange light, as if liquid fire ran up and down the length of the blade.

"A dragon steel sword. One of very few, for you, Duchess. May it serve you well in the battles against Chaos." He stands then and awaits her response.

Motioning for an aide the Duchess whisper somethings in his ear. As she advance to take the sword. After examining it for a while she exclaims.

"A fine blade, likely worth more than our most extravagant treasure. As you have seen duke we are simple people trying to survive in this wilderness, while we do not have priceless treasure, I can at least try to give you something of worth to your emperor."

As she finish the aide comes back along with some other servants, pieces of armor meant for someone of large but human stature, the intended or previous owner was one of the smaller centaur breed. complete with the same type of wing the Duchess wears.

"Please present this to your Emperor in the hope it protects him from the chaos. It is the armor of one of the previous Duchess and while not the most practical design for you human I doubt it would hinder a dragon rider much. As for our common enemies I agree somethings need to be done. We agree to work with the empire and should it come under attack we will help defend it as if it was our land. Now that this is settled, we can arrange provision or lodging for you and your mount depending on if you wish to stay or leave. I hope you'll at least stay for a feast, just be cautious with the alcohol it's likely strong enough to make one of those drake keel over."

Angeloi, in spite of his regal attire and practised poise, looked haggard. He was barely able to drag himself to this emergency meeting of the Prefects (the highest order of priesthood in the church). His face was unshaven, and he looked as if he hadn’t slept well for the past few days.

Prefect Nereus did the opening ceremonies, the consecration of the room, and a silent prayer. The others did the latter as well. The Prophet-King muttered one of his own, offering a supplication to the heavens. Then, right to business.

Rolled 75, 82, 53 = 210 (3d100)

Prefect Agamemnon slammed his fists on the table in frustration. The others looked at him, startled, and he quickly regained his composure. “My liege,” he said, barely concealing his emotions “I implore you to see reason in this matter. Nothing good can come of this ‘trade’ with the lesser beings! Just look at what it has wrought upon us! It is clearly a sign from the Eternal Nous!”

It was then that a peculiar expression swept across Angeloi’s face. It was gone in a moment, but…

Angeloi sighed. “Come here, Agamemnon.” he said in a way that almost suggested kindness.Agamemnon obliged. Angeloi then bade him to lean in closer...

THWACK!

Angeloi’s backhand could be heard across the castle.

Agamemnon clutched his face and let out a cry, but a single look from Angeloi was enough to quiet him. It was then that Angeloi said, as calmly as he could muster “We are reliant on their trade now more than ever. Our enemies will surely try to capitalize on this, we must be ready to train soldiers to defend us” (Train “Storm Wizard Crusaders” [Infantry 1][Water Magic 1][Air Magic 1][Religion 3])

He then turned to Prefect Miltiades. “We must un-flood the homesteads. We owe it to the survivors to properly bury the dead.” (Underwater Expansion [Water Magic 1] and [Air Magic 1] Apply here, I believe.)

Finally, he gave an incredible order. “Resume studying the water magics. We need to ensure that this never happens again.” he stone-facedly commanded. (Research [Water Magic 2])

The prefects barely stifled gasps. Could he be serious...?

And then, without speaking further, he left the meeting chamber.

Large group of people approach Artemisian spiders. They all have tan skin and wear only loincloth. They consist of guarding soldiers, musicians, dancers and other performers. And also group of people carrying large litter, on which sits mummy wrapped in finest linen. In front of litter, group of women keep tossing flower petals.
- I am High Priest Khaf-hor - mummy speaks - I am here on behalf of my ruler, Eternal Pharaoh Nefer Heb-ef, may he guide us forever
- May he guide us forever - responds entourage
- Pharaoh wants to open trade with you, offering the best linen and purest copper. I am here to represent his will.

The dwarves of Kedesh dedicate themselves to magic, science, and craftsmanship, leaving menial labor to their brutalized Orcish slaves.

Amidst the murkiest of night, a sole Black Rider scoured the outskirts of the surrounding "civilizations". It was covered in black rags and blended in with the surroundings, save for its piercing red eyes which the moonlight only exemplified as they hatefully peered at the targets they were affixed on. Nevertheless, the moment it became apparent they were noticed, the creature merely blinked in order to become invisible from its surroundings: in the cacophony of the night, few were hardly the wiser.

Two hours after the mid of night, and the skulking Huh Barbabrab was back in the burning cinders of Bacatia, standing among the horde with its peers. A hulking mutant came to meet him, its skin sickly and full of festering boils."Юy үлдcэн үндэcтэн? Haдaд хэлээч чи юy хapcaн." (What of the other nations? Tell me what you saw.)

The Black Rider clumsily dismounted in order to tell his tale: his legs creaked and crunched, the creature seemingly suffering from a bone disorder as it struggled to move its lower limbs.

It spoke in a voice that one could call "high pitched" for its kind, though it would still register as baritone to a human listener. "Хoep өөp бүлэг, мaгaдгүй гypaв. Хaмгийн тoм хoт бaйcaн мoд; тэд aдyy, энэ нь шиг бaйнa. Хoep дaхь хoт, дээp нь нөгөө тaлд гoлын - тэд aдил төcтэй хүмүүc бид зүгээp л бaйлдaн дaгyyлж бaйнa. Tэнд бaйcaн нэг бүлэг - гэвч тэд бapaг coeл иpгэншил: ямap ч нapийн төвөгтэй бapилгa, юy ч мaйхaн, бидэн шиг. Үнэ цэнэтэй биш гэнэтийн: тэд үнэpтэж шиг aмьтaн!" (Two different groups, maybe three. The largest city was made of wood; they have horses, it seems. Second city, is on other side of the river - they resemble the people we just conquered. There were another group - but they were hardly a civilization: no intricate buildings, nothing but tents, like us. Not worth raiding: they stank, like animals!)

As the rider finished his report, he found his throat grabbed by his larger superior, picked off his feet and met of the brute's face: covered in scars, with several scabs present with evidence that they had been picked at. Foul spittle and a breath that likely never saw modern dental practice rained downward as he spoke. "Ta бaйхгүй юy шийдэж бaйнa, юy биш юм "үнэ цэнэтэй гэнэтийн". Tэp нь "Khaahk"! Би ecтoй бyyхиa энэ мэдээлэл нь түүнд мөн тэpээp шийдвэpлэнэ бид юy хийж өглөө. Ta хaлaгдcaн бaйнa." (You do not decide what is and what isn't "worth raiding". That is for the Khaahk! I shall relay this information to him and he shall decide what we do in the morning. You are dismissed.)

The brute let go the rider. He glared back and was off.

The people of Madness long to recreate the wonders of that man and his companions, to be able to shape life itself into whatever form they so desired. And so they study, they experiment, and they explore, looking for the long lost mysteries of the Mad who were their ancestors.
