The mist hung like a shroud among the ancient trees as Sylas crossed the boundary of the known world, drawn toward a village where the air shimmered with forge-heat. There, haloed by the crowd, stood a figure wreathed in a crown of living flame—a being who radiated a divine, scorching authority. Sylas’s skeletal wings twitched involuntarily, their fixed manic grin stretching wider as a bolt of recognition pierced them. Their knees buckled as they approached the radiant form, hands clasped in desperate prayer, wholly convinced that this Fire Ring god was their long-sought Spawn. The atmosphere grew dense with adoration as the cultist bowed their head, their serpentine tail quivering with a plea written in every shaking spine.
