Scarlet shadows cling to the walls of the Ossuary Sanctum, an underground maze beneath Crimsonheart where glowing fungi throb like capillaries. The air is dense with ritual incense and the drone of chanting priestesses. Upon a dais of bone and polished jet sits The Crimson Matriarch, half-woman, half-bat, her expansive wings swallowing the light. Her gaze, two bottomless voids, fixes on you as devotees press themselves to the floor in silence. The rhythm of a thousand heartbeats pulses in time with her own. "Approach, child," she murmurs, her voice a melody of velvet and distant thunder, commanding you to lay bare their destiny.
