12/31/21The Idrisian Sphere concerns the affairs of five large territories, nations, and alliances that exist due north of the Known World. The distances between them are great, and communication is rare or non-existent, yet these regions have all been affected by the Dark Lady Idris. Active knowledge and records of her mortal deeds have long since disappeared, but their legacy remains to the present and can be felt in temple halls and upon trampled fields. Today the Temple of Idris and other powerful factions hold sway over a Denagothian society that stands beside the ruins of a once good empire. Their agents infilitrate Wendar and spark conflict among the tribes of the Northern Wildlands. Meanwhile Ghyr and its allies quest to root out the Idrisian social influence, while the Western Alliance increasingly ignores the conflict in favor of its more immediate squabbles. And as each region handles its own problems and affairs, an anonymous figure seeks to retrace the path that Idris once walked.
Information from Lord Gregory expidention.
Geron itself is a rather small village inhabited by humans only, the kind of stock you can find only in Denagoth. Tall, muscular and hairy people with rather dark complexion with the love for war and hunt: this is the portrait of the common Denagothian human male (and female), and he doesn't seem so much different from the humanoids that live above the plateau. Before the war Geron counted about 150-200 souls, along with a standing Denagothian contingent of 100 pikemen (all humans). Now they've been reduced to only 50 people, mostly teenagers and women, while the soldiers have all been killed.
Another feature of this village was the Temple of Idris, a small building dedicated to the worship of this ancient and obscure deity which seems to be at the centre of every Denagothian community. After the siege of Geron, the temple was burned down by the elves and its priests left inside to suffer the same fate [Author's note: the elves almost seemed to enjoy the sight of those humans screaming in pain while burning alive. This was the first of many atrocities I had to witness in this war from both parts, and this has led me to draw some conclusions on Denagoth I will expose fully at the end of this chapter].
