Shaduwam Agon

The Shaduwam Agon were a type of Shaduwam in the Himatan.
They were enemies of the Thaumaturgs, being an offshoot with a differing ideology. The Agon believed that life ended with the heart whereas the Thaumaturg believed that it ended with the mindBlood and Bone, Chapter 11, UK MMPB p.616-617 and that the needs of flesh were all that mattered with no morality of good or bad. The Adwami hated, and to an extent feared, the Agon, believing them to "enslave [their spirits to] dark powers: the Fallen One, and the Demon-King, the infernal Kell-Vor",Blood and Bone, Chapter 1, UK MMPB, p.87 with the application of Agon seen as sacrilege and destructive.
== In Blood and Bone ==
An unnamed Shaduwam Agon turned up in the camp of The Warleader and offered the magic of the Agon in return for a quarter of all captives. Andanii, Ganell, and Jatal refused the demand and the priest was removed from the meeting. However, the Warleader seemed ambiguous on the topic. Jatal recalled that his father had a hatred for the Agon and forbade any to enter his lands.Blood and Bone, Chapter 1, UK lg PB p.86-88
Seeing the Warleader's return to Jacuruku as a chance to destroy their long time rivals, the Agon helped the Adwami to destroy the Thaumaturgs. They killed the magic practitioners before the main army could reach them in their fortresses.
