The Cataclysm used to be luscious and green. A popular destination for people searching paradise. Then one day it happened. The forsaken arrived. They were viscous in their ways and sucked the land dry. The terrain started to crumble and soon it became completely uninhabitable for life. The Forsaken who had… “forsaken” this land started to expand their territory.
A branch of the ascendancy, who called themselves the acolytes had enough of this. They fought back. They fought back hard. Facing waves and waves of the forsaken they accomplished the impossible. It looked futile. More than 50 forsaken for each soldier. Eventually, they killed the queen.
She lay, covered in blood and her fallen children. Proud with the deed they have served the world, the acolytes started to leave the collapsing throne room. This is when the unimaginable happened. Tendrils started to spread out from the queens body, grasping onto her fallen children and pulling them towards herself. Gasps were heard from the acolytes as they saw the queen, awakened, a lovecraftian abomination of tendrils and severed parts. A screech, followed by darkness.
The commander of the acolytes came to their senses to see his group surrounded by that abominations freshest young, feasting on his comrades innards. Why, him. Why did he have to be the only survivor. all his friends were dead.
That… thing was nowhere to be seen. The fresh forsaken were too busy feasting to notice him slowly slip away into the night. with all of the acolytes dead, there was no hope for the commander.
Well, until now. A group of 7 approached the commander, they had recently lost their homes to the forsaken scourge. they learnt of his efforts in the past. They wanted revenge on the forsaken. Together they set out to the badlands, the cataclysm left after the forsaken had devastated the place. A newly lit fire in the commanders heart. He will not let the forsaken reach any more people of the ascendancy.
The original badlands from the forsaken’s fist invasion had started to heal a little. The ground was fertile enough to grow a few plants but nothing huge. Here they set up and increased their numbers, the occasional forsaken scout group appeared but there was no military action here. Setting up in the forsaken’s blind spot, where they would never expect the Acolytes to be. Perfect.
