Myths of The Hunted Few: WALL KING GEIR“Our Stoic King and Lord has provided the people of Idu
Myths of The Hunted Few: WALL KING GEIR“Our Stoic King and Lord has provided the people of Idune with security in mortality, for he is our light in the suffocating dark, the shining beacon in the vitrioiline depths of nightmarish natures.”-Cleric’s Guild Scripture, The Wall KingWall King Geir, the young nobleman who usurped the throne during the earlier years of The Emergence, denying the birthright from Tor’s kin. It was he who ordered the heightening of the walls of Tor’s Claim. He was responsible for the flourishing of the Cleric’s Guild. To a lesser extent, it was also he who enabled the formation of The Hunter’s Mantle, if only through lack of compassion for his people in outlying duchies. The commoners and peasants all over carry a bitterness in their heart for their King, but none moreso than the Mason’s Guild. Denied compensation and threatened with exile for treachery, they were put to work. Blood and sweat spilled on those ashen stones, with only the fear of the encroaching darkness to carry them on in their work.Despite all the bitter wills and the angry young men who raise their hammers at the King, he remains. Some suspect stubbornness, others suspect darker arts. 30 years have passed since his ascension and coronation, and during that time not one person has gazed upon his face. Some jest that he is merely a suit of armor driven by passionate ambition, and that Ansen Geir died long ago. -- source link
