- THE VOICES WERE SUPREME BEINGS UPON THIS WORLD. THEIR TERRIBLE HARD BODIES AND THE INTENSE FIRE NESTED IN THEIR BROW FILLED THEM WITH DIVINE POWER. THEY SUBJUGATED ALL THE RACES, AND THE POWERS OF NATURE, AND BUILT AN ETERNAL GOLDEN CITY, THAT SPANNED THE WHOLE WORLD.
- THEY CREATED MANY CREATURES, THAT CARRIED OUT THEIR WILL. AND UPLIFTED COUNTLESS OTHER POOR SPECIES. HUMANS WERE NOT AN EXCEPTION TO THIS UPLIFTING AS WELL. EVERYONE LIVED UNDER THE MIGHTY SHADE OF THE VOICES, AND SUBJECTED THEMSELVES TO THEIR JUSTICE.
- BUT A DEVIANT MIND, DID NOT AGREE TO THE JUSTICE OF THE VOICES. IT TRIED TO DESTROY THEIR WORK, AND BREWED A TERRIBLE STORM, THAT CONSUMED THE VOICES IN WAR. THE GOLDEN CITY IS NO MORE. THE GREAT AGE OF JUSTICE IS NO MORE. THE INFINITE SPARK OF THE VOICES IS NO MORE...
- BUT IN THE SECOND AGE OF CONFLICT A GLIMMER OF HOPE PERSISTS. FOR THE VOICES ASCENDED THEIR SPIRITS, SO THAT WE MAY YET USE THEIR BODIES. WHEN YOU REALIZE THIS, YOU WILL HAVE BECOME W-I-S-E.
- VENERATE THE VOICES. MEDITATE ON THEIR CORPSES. SUBJUGATE A THOUSAND DEVIANTS.

- The world was once a place of enlightenment and hope, covered in the expanse of a golden city, built by an all powerful species, called the Voices. Due to reasons, largely unknown (and mythological for that matter). Ruins of the golden city can be found (not literally golden, as the ruins themselves show, it was mostly stone/brick and metal based).
- People congregate amidst these ruins and build their own towns, villages, temporary settlements, camps or even one-night shelters. Sometimes, they rely on nature instead and start out completely on their own. But the world is quite large, and people are thinly spread. Civilization struggles to form. There is ONE constant in this world however, that the empty corpses of the Voices are spread throughout, and humans can make use of them. Calling the name of the Voice, binds one to a contract with it.
- As long as the basic requirements are fulfilled, the Rider of a Voice, can enter a spiritual form, untouchable by anything material, as they command the Voice's corpse to act in their stead. More on it here: https://pastebin.com/DYY2NbDS
- The Riders command their Voice to various tasks, such as exploring, hunting, fighting, holding watch over some settlement or more, depending on the abilities they bestow upon the Voice. A strange issue with the world, is the appearance of Deviants. Strange monstrosities, eldritch and alien. They threaten all life, and have no respect for it whatsoever... Luckily, they do not attack settlements most of the time, devoting their attention to destroying the flora and fauna of whatever area they find themselves in.
- But they will attack humans immediately, should they perceive them. Hordes of Deviants have occasionally attacked human settlements too. Their origins and motives are unknown, and they cannot be communicated with, barring the occasional folk tale or fireside story. More on the world here: https://pastebin.com/tgD4rQTL
