Hrm... War is coming it appears. And many gods are bulking up their armies...

Terrifying creatures and whatnot aside, I really need to start working up on Vecatrius' Chosen.
So far, I have planned as the first post the eldest Chosen being executed for speaking blasphemies against the Prophecies.
The Order of Hours (briefly mentioned) would preside over the execution as they sentence the Chosen to the harness.
Thus he would be rid of his free will as the machine fuses with his consciousness and he lives out the rest of his days as a puppet on strings.
But before doing so, he is allowed to have a final speech for the records, which he has chosen to tell his tale and with it the history of the triple cities.
All the while Vecatrius is viewing his Champion's ill-fortune. Though such is the price of being a Chosen, as his fate would be his own.
