Abbey of the Mother-Beast

Not to be confused with the Priory of the Mother-Beast or the Cathedral of the Mother-Beast

The **Abbey of the Mother-Beast** is an abbey dedicated to the Mother-Beast and Child that overlooks Blackwick. At the beginning of *Sangfielle*, it has mostly turned to dust with the exception of a bell tower near the mine's main entrance.

During The Curse of Eastern Folly, a group of young folks found a cathedral below a hidden hatch North of the Abbey.
Black Hook

**Black Hook**, or **Great Black Hook**, is a Shape train that runs along the north-west to south-east line of the Shape. It is a bulky black locomotive engine.

Pickman invoked its name to curse William Blick, as well as carving the Shape on his hand.

In Episode 31, Black Hook was spotted at a distance crashing happily into the walls of Sapodilla. As Dyre Ode's sternum had been removed, Sapodilla was no longer shielded from the influence and impact of trains.

Alekest san Geraint

> *If you’re a long time reader of this publication, Alekest needs no introduction. You know him from his past adventures, like the slaying of the UnSevered Beast or his solitary stand at Cedartree Station. Maybe you forget some of the details, his angst-filled childhood, the fraught years after his mother’s death, his uncanny dreams. Well, Knight Pickman seems not to be a reader, if her confusion at the Margrave’s arrival is any indication.*

Sangfielle 05: The Hymn of the Mother-Beast Pt. 1

## Episode Description

> One year after the people of Blackwick County (then Eastern Folly) broke a curse that had plagued the town for generations, a group of strange and determined professionals arrived. Explorers, investigators, wardens of nature and culture and everything in between. They’d come to answer the call for folks just like them, people who could ensure the town wouldn’t fall under the sway of any other supernatural threat.
>
>
> And just a few days after they arrived, they got their first job. Janek Polyte, one of the town youths who wandered down underneath the Abbey a year ago and found the egg sac (which now rests nestled and pulsating near the mine’s entry), has gone missing. And witnesses place him at the Abbey’s underground entrance before he vanished.
>
>
> And so, the Blackwick Group heads off to their first job. Explore the under-ruins of the Abbey, locate the missing Drakkan kid, and figure out what in the name of the heartland is going on down there to begin with...

Genburi

> *What's there to be said about that old rat that people don't already know? A divine professor, taller than most, with an eye as much for provocative fashion as book learning. Wears a lot of purple. Knows a bunch of languages. Not much else to say.*
>
>

*– The Almanac of the Heartland Rider*
**Genburi** *(pronounced gen-boori)* is a god of knowledge, language, and education who is part of the Boundless Conclave.

## Appearance

An elderly man with a rat's head. He wears sexy, amethyst-colored armor with geometric patterning.

## Temple

The temple is a large, open space with many people in it. In the center, there is a fountain with a grand statue of Genburi. In each quadrant, there are people, sitting cross-legged, attending lessons. The instructors have whiskers drawn on their faces and are teaching the academic language of the church.

In The Secret Ledger of Roseroot Hall, Lyke creates a portal to a temple of Genburi, and takes a souvenir.

## Trivia

The character was created from a generation of the Seventh Sanctum Deity Generator reading:

> *"This god of education takes the form of an elderly man with the head of a rat. He is very tall and has a masculine build. His eyes are chestnut. He is usually portrayed as wearing a sexy suit of armor that is mostly amethyst in color and which is covered in geometric designs. He can impart or take away the knowledge of languages."*

Sangfielle 45: Wax, Ichor, and Iron Pt. 2

## Episode Description

> In a low, forgotten basement of the Church of the Triadic Pyre, dozens—including Pickman, Marn, and Bucho—are held in the broiling dark. But in the township above, Chine has found their scent and lead the remainder of the Blackwick Group and their extempore allies towards the church’s front door. Now it is only a matter of getting inside and reuniting, a task with more complications than the Cleaver’s irritation and impulses would like to account for.

Sangfielle 35: Marrow in the Field

## Episode Description

> The word went out to every worker on board the Jade Moon, and was passed to any passengers moving about the cabins: Stay inside. This was not the *normal* call to remain indoors during the ninth through eleventh days of the journey northward up the Ojan. No, this was something special. After all, as far as the captain and crew could tell, they weren’t even *on* the Ojan anymore. This was somewhere else. This was Marrowcreek.

## Opening Narration

> Now, I am not what you might call a stickler for rules. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate a good copyedit, and I understand that mutually agreed upon accords are oft designed to push us towards becoming our better angels. But I am a fan of leeway in the little things and living life in a sort of ad hoc way, you know? Sometimes you need to walk on the lawn, and I can think of a great many meals that were improved by eating with my hands instead of lifting up silverware. The point is that circumstances are more important than axioms. Or maybe said more completely: the stronger the rule being written, the more perfect one’s understanding of the situation needs to be, and perfect understanding is a rare thing. In fact, I can count on a single hand the number of categories of near perfect understanding that exist in life on the Heartland. First, in my experience, a person knows the tune of their own body in a way that even the greatest doctors of Sangfielle can only gesture at. Now, I'm not saying that I want to write all my own prescriptions or that I refuse to take my medicine before I say my prayer to Slumbous at night. But I am saying that I had it real bad in the gut once, and my doctor, well, she did not accept my account of the pain that I was in. So, number one: bodies and the havers thereof. Now, two, three, and four is easy: trains, guns, and horses. I defer to expertise. I'm not trying to cross anything that can kill me so swiftly. So I don't know, you go ahead. You tell me them rules; I’ll keep ’em. Fifth, well: my house, my rules. I know it's a cliche spoken too often by parents slow on time, patience, or confidence, but the fact of it is, you live or work in a place long enough, and it gets into you. You can feel the termites in the walls, the pipes aching, ready to leak. So when I'm in someone else's abode or factory or riverboat, I listen to them. Maybe Hazard, Lye Lychen, and the Cleaver Chine should have done the same.

Sangfielle 47: Wax, Ichor, and Iron Pt. 4

## Episode Description

> Having escaped Alaway's ad hoc temple, the Blackwick Group has attended to their collective wounds and begun to piece together what the vampiric Lord of Wax is planning. In short: godhood. In detail: the theft and usurpation of the last, material power of the Mother-Beast, the god who once called this territory hers. They know, too, that to confront their foe directly at this point would be to invite destruction and calamity. And so it is time for counter-schemes and further research. Perhaps, though... perhaps just a peek? A quick look at what this recurring enemy is capable of. Just a glance, and nothing more.

## Passage on the Jade Moon Pt. 2

The *Jade Moon's* stop at Bridge Cathedral gives the Blackwick Group the opportunity to heal, and they fuck up a simple task *so* bad.

## Episode description

> The Jade Moon’s trip from the sea of Sapodilla back upriver towards Blackwick has a set schedule. 14 days, all accounted for. Meals prepared. Entertainment provided. A small number of stops for shopping, religious needs, and the general stretching of legs. And yet it is the case that some days are longer than others, no matter that they count one each. The day that most of the Blackwick Group, and a new companion, stepped out of the Jade Moon and into the Triadic Pyre’s Bridge Cathedral is one such day.

Lion Portant La Crinière Du Soleil

## Description Physique

Ce grand chat doré haut sur pattes arbore une fourrure épaisse et ondulée, avec un col autour du cou. Il a des yeux ambrés, voir orangée, une truffe grise et sa patte avant droite est blanche.

## Description Morale

Courageux et fort, ce chasse-proie n'as jamais voulut devenir Garde-Caverne. Malgré sa carrure imposante, il en reste timide. Si il a été Chasse-Proie, ce qui a étonner beaucoup, la raison n'en a jamais été mentionner par Conteur Des Nuages Cotonneux Bon apprentis, bon joueur. Derrière ses apparences de grosse brute, il ne ferait pas de mal a une mouche. Il n'est jamais d'accords avec son frère, qu'il est trouve trop actif et méchant avec Brouillard Couvrant La Clarté. Il est d'ailleurs très gentil avec elle comme avec sa soeur.

Lion - pour sa carrure

Soleil - contrastre pour son caractère
Aldomina

**Aldomina** used to be the name of the whole continent that *Sangfielle* is set in, but currently describes the empire controlling several territories to the east of it.

Aldomina is divided into subsections, called cantons.

## Culture

The historical human empire had strong medieval Europe/Catholicism vibes, which were maintained by the devils for PR and aesthetic reasons.

## Cantons

There are three cantons in Aldomina, and two that were a part of it at one point, but separated.

### Current Territories

* The First Canton: The Throne of Dominion. Many hundreds of years ago, this was an early expansionist human empire, but was taken over by devils escaping hell. They took the empire and spread it outward until it covered the whole continent at one point, and turned most of it into agricultural fields to be worked by slaves.
* The Second Canton: The Pale Magistratum, and the first canton's right hand enforcers. It is a land of snow and ash, whose population is predominantly Caprak.
* The Fifth Canton: The Protectorate Kingdom of Ojantan is the most recent addition to Aldomina, and used to be independent, but gave into Aldomina with enough time and pressure — a scant fifty years before the Fourth Canton's revolt. Its people are primarily Ojantani.

### Former Territories

* The Free Seas of Kay'Va (formerly the Fourth Canton): An association of Drakkan communes on a southwestern archipelago. They separated from Aldomina 300 years ago, in a slave revolt led by Cecile Cartine, founder of Cartinism.
* Unschola Republica (formerly the Third Canton): Land of mainly scholars and mages who seceded upon seeing an open opportunity, when the Fourth Canton was occupying Aldomina's attention with its own revolution. Primarily populated by humans.
* Sangfielle, the Heartland: This rich expanse was an imperial breadbasket at the heart of the continent until reality started to crack, and its rulers fled. Nowadays, it is a re-frontier that is the source of all kinds of technological advances and sundry horrors.
Second-hand wedding ring

The **second-hand wedding ring** was Hazard's starting resource.

In Episode 33, Ribbadon's curse changed it into something more valuable: a d10 Occult ring of vines and branches, with the jewel transformed into some strange fruit. Hazard plucked this off (now d6, soon to change again), and gave the rest of the ring to Deacon Alize as payment to heal their Battered hand.
Sangfielle 46: Wax, Ichor, and Iron Pt. 3

## Episode Description

> After being separated by weeks, miles, and barricaded doors, the Blackwick Group has finally reunited. Now, below the town they’ve sworn to defend, they gather themselves, tend to their wounds,  and investigate what exactly the waxen vampire Alaway is trying to achieve. Thankfully, they’ll have some help untangling the mystery…

Gala

**Gala** is a young woman from Yellowfield, who works in the factory there. She found the Blackwick Group in the local church, and asked them to find her mother, Galena, who had been missing for a week.

Gala is a very light-skinned Black woman with red hair, fancasted as Erin Kellyman.

This page contains information that is a spoiler for The Candle Factory. If you do not wish to know the secrets of the heartland, please turn back.

## Biographical information

### Relationships

Galena - "mother"Regan Alaway - creator,

Like all the inhabitants of Yellowfield, Gala is a spare body for High Vicar Regan Alaway. When Regan is destroyed by Es’ Exsanguinate attack, the vampire chooses next to become Gala, overwriting the independent consciousness previously seen.

Es and Chine pushed her into the factory's vat of candle wax, which was cooling as they had just unplugged the power source for the electric heater. Gala was frozen in there.

Alaway will return, presumably still as Gala once someone manages to melt her out, and harbors a vendetta against Marn and by extension all of Blackwick for this.
Dynamite

> “*Mining explosives hidden inside a fruit crate.*”

>
>

A crate of *dynamite* was hidden by Mirlande on the freight car of the *Prince Alexander*, disguised as sapodilla fruit. After the train crashed, the Bell Metal Band discovered it in the wreckage, but did not have time to safely move or open it; Lye Lychen took the risk, and took it back to the station.
Sangfielle 12: The Secret Ledger of Roseroot Hall Pt. 4

## Episode Description

> Safe in the company of the Didacts of Genburi, Lye Lychen, Duvall, and Es have a moment to rest and consider their options. Between this studious temple and the safety of Blackwick is the realm of Aterika’Kaal, twisted demi-god. And even beyond its reach, there is Roseroot Hall, where its blood thirsty remains sit in the manor's hidden heart, bound by unholy contract to Dayward YVE. If that was not enough, there is, also, the matter of the relic skull, ripped from the creature's roots. Much to consider, they think. Much to consider.

Icon of Subsolum

The **icon of Subsolum** was a resource Virtue found underneath the altar of the Church of Subsolum. It was a cheaply-made shiny metal spade, either gold or something golden in color.

Virtue gave it to Old Alamae to heal Echo fallout in Episode 22, as well as her Shape-touched chalk. Alamae chipped at it with a nail, then placed it in a little velvet pouch.

Sangfielle 43: Two Kinds of Quarry Pt. 2

## Episode Description

> With the Ravening Beast dealt with — at least for now — Lye Lychen, Hazard, and the Cleaver Chine continue to track their way towards the nearest settlement. There, they hope to find supplies, a good night of sleep, and a quick passage northward to Blackwick (which is in sore need of their skills and support at the moment). But before they reach the quarry in the distance, they come across a too-familiar trio with a problem of their own.

Chronicles of Firmino Nigel

The **Chronicles of Firmino Nigel** is a historical biography bought by Es in Sapodilla, as it is not safe to stand around in a bookshop there as a heritrix and read books without paying for them right now.

Nigel was someone important to the history of Sapodilla, but not in a gross colonialist way. After the Panic, they were keen on reconnecting to history that had been left behind, rather than melting down everything to conform to Sapodilla's idea of a monoculture.

The book itself is a dusty old tome, which Es bought (for three supply stress) to consult as a reference as to how people structure biographies.
Empress Altapasqua

> *Around fifty years after the panic set in, Altapasqua told her people she would ride across this cursed land and purge it of its disease and danger. She only made it about three fourths of the way.*
>
>

*– The Almanac of the Heartland Rider*
**The Sunken Empress, Altapasqua,** was a ruler of Aldomina around the time of the Panic. She planned a grand procession across the heartland to bring hope to her people, but disappeared midway through.

Although scouts were sent out to Eastern Folly to announce her imminent arrival, the entire procession was never seen again after staying at Last Rest, leading to the ominous naming of both places. However, it is said that sometimes the lights of their pavilion can be seen across the lake.

During The Curse of Eastern Folly, skeleton courtiers imply that the Sunken Empress has continued to hold court under the lake (presumably also as a skeleton), though her subjects are now fractured between the Loyalists and the True Loyalists.
Sangfielle 03: The Curse of Eastern Folly Pt. 3

## Episode Description

> One day of strange occurrences is, in some ways, a blessing. Good dinner time conversation. The stuff of campfire stories. Two ill-fated days? That’s a warning and a courtesy. The troubled cough that precedes illness. An opportunity for you to prepare for worse. But three cursed days in a row? That’s where you really have to worry, because it *ain’t* just one thing. Three cursed days in a row is as often the end to a little township as it is the sign of a great dynasty’s rise. With one or two, you’ve got a hex, maybe some begrudged witch or local spirit who wasn’t paid its due. With three, you’ve got a blank page. And from writer to reader, let me tell you: Ain’t nothing scarier than that.

## Meta information

### Appears in

Marrow in the Field, Marrow in the Bone

The **doppelgänger** is an inhabitant of Marrowcreek who resembles a version of Chine who became a regular human farmer rather than a cleaver. They were created by the moon-touched woods.
Duvall

**Meyer Leopold Duvall**, commonly known as **Duvall**, is a character in *Sangfielle*. His class is the Deep Apiarist.

 *Content Note: This page contains insect infestation of a human body.*

## Appearance

Duvall is a human around average height, who looks like shit. He has fancy clothes, but clearly they were bought for a much healthier man, as he has lost a lot of weight and hasn't had the money and time to have them all replaced.

In Episode 22, his bugs replaced his entire body (or most of it) with wax. While this process was too gross to be shown onscreen, it doesn't particularly seem to have altered his appearance: he looks slightly less uncanny valley than a very good waxwork, other than with some tearing at the joints.

## Background

Duvall is from one of the few remaining human aristocratic lines in the Throne of Dominion, and has enough older siblings that he inherited little from this. He came to Eastern Folly as a wannabe adventurer/paranormal researcher a few years ago, with the money from some uncle; this all went on funding his expedition to the Sleeping City, which was technically successful. Duvall made it in to that strange location while it was not yet open, and may have spent some time there, but its defenses activated and filled him with bugs. Existentially threatened, Duvall returned to Blackwick at some point, now intending to determine the meaning of the self: whether he was free-willed and controlling the bees, or the bees were controlling him.

## Fallout

* Fascination (Luck): You become obsessed with a strange topic, usually whatever caused the fallout. You must try and learn more about it firsthand if possible. Whenever you attempt to learn more about your weird fascination, roll with mastery. If you have the opportunity to learn about it and you refuse, mark D4 stress to Mind. (Duvall gained this in Episode 12, soon after rolling 44 damage — possibly the greatest single hit in the history of Friends at the Table. Art refuses to ever remove it. Since gaining this fallout, Duvall has consistently rolled absolutely terribly, especially in contrast to Lyke.)

Blue Wind

> *One train among many in the Bridge Cathedral. This one seems to be inhabited by a more boisterous group of Gandy Dancers than the others. Who could say why? If I had to guess, I'd say that those strange creatures are trying to take the train off of Fire Alight's track and put it back on the regular old Shape.*

### Other stats

Considered a Tier 2 location

The ***Blue Wind*** is a train associated with the Triadic Pyre. It is introduced in Episode 33, and is the stage for the combat scene that takes up a considerable portion of the episode.

The *Blue Wind'*s gandies are known to be special. On its being hung up with iron chains, they became enraged and aggressive and several combined into one unsettling amalgamation.
Disciples of the Triadic Pyre

> *I’ll say as little as I can because there are few words one can write about them that won’t guide them to you like a beacon, marking the ink, page, and writer to be burnt as fuel.*
>
>

*– The Almanac of the Heartland Rider*

> “*People burning censors so thickly that they move in a cloud of scented smoke. A great beast died centuries ago and was buried underground. Priests draw its black blood up through the ground as sacred oil. Geologist-priests, surveyor-priests, holy theodolites and soil samples and plumb lines. Religious digging. Great Pits. Cellars. Three nuns rent a room at an inn and start digging beneath it.*”
>
>
> ― Jack de Quidt's initial notes

**The Disciples of the Triadic Pyre** is a religion of fire. They believe that entropy is the only certain thing in this world, and as such aim to master it: if the only truth is that everything burns, why not be the one holding the lighter. They worship three deities: Fulmina is their goddess of the Flame’s Spark, Arinpata is their deity of Ashen Remains, and a burning god among iron trains with an unpronounceable name is their god of Fire Alight.

During the events of *The Curse of Eastern Folly*, the Triadic Pyre started recruiting miners in Blackwick to do tasks for them in the mines and be branded.

## Almanac Description

> *The disciples worship a trio of gods that they call the Triadic Pyre, but it is hard to understand how these three beings—powerful though they may be—came first into alignment with each other.*
>
>
> *From the Magistrates of the Second Canton, they took **Fulmina**, goddess of immediate justice, and appointed her ruler of the **Flame’s Spark**. From the terrible hierarchies of the locomotive Shape that runs across the heartland, they found a **burning god among iron trains**, whose name my lips dare not utter lest it lay its tracks towards you and I both, and aligned that beast with the **Fire Alight**. And finally, whether as cruel corruption or in a moment of lightness, they adopted the Ojantani **Arinpata, the Smiling God of Death** as their deity of **Ashen Remains**.*

> *Under it all is a simple belief: Even in the heartland where things sometimes find second or third life, in the end, everything burns, everything dies, everything ceases to be. And for the Disciples, the best place to be is holding the match.*

## Locations

* The Triadic Pyre has a strong presence in Blackwick, as they hope to repeat its great disaster where fire sprung out of the mines.
Akule "Janek" Polyte

> *A Drakkan member of Blackwick County’s youth community, a member of the group who went beneath the Abbey’s ruins a year ago, and if his equipment is anything to go by, an undercover agent of the Free Seas of Kay'va.*
>
>

*– The Almanac of the Heartland Rider*
**Akule** "**Janek**" **Polyte** *(yah-nik poh-lee-tay)* is a light yellow-orange Drakkan in his early twenties who lives in Blackwick.

## Backstory

Polyte is a Star-Touched agent of Kay'va who came to Sangfielle after he carried out some wetwork (mostly political assassinations) in the Pale Magistratum and became wanted.

In Episode 2 Polyte, along with a group of youths from Blackwick, found a trapdoor leading into the basement of the Abbey of the Mother-Beast, then a giant cathedral. The Mother-Beast therein would feature in his tall stories for some time to come. On the altar, the group found an egg sac in a ceremonial bowl, which Polyte took home and kept warm for some time, until word leaked.

## Hymn of the Mother-Beast Arc

When  a Pale Magistrate came to Blackwick to chase Polyte down, he fled into the abbey again. The White Flower Caretaker attempted to attack both of them and they cooperated momentarily, then attacked each other again. Polyte convinced Ezek that the Hymn of the Mother-Beast contained a great treasure, so the two cooperated long enough to sing the hymn and travel into view of the priory. On seeing this, Ezek realized that this was not a rich location, and attacked again, causing Polyte to drop his compass. When he fired a shot, a window broke and the Sisters of the Mother-Beast arrested both of them.

Following this disappearance, the Blackwick Group were contacted to retrieve Janek. On arriving at the Priory, they convinced the Sisters to release both Janek and Ezek to their care with the argument that any consequences for Ezek's death would fall only on Blackwick. On their journey back, Ezek escaped from his bounds, but Pickman killed him, and so the group were able to return to Blackwick with Polyte unscathed and charming them with tales of his exploits.

## Bell Metal Station Arc

In the broken dining car of the Prince Alexander, Lye Lychen found a letter from Polyte to fellow Star-Touched agent Mirlande. In this letter, he thanked her for coming on her way to extract him, saying that he was eager to return home to Kay'va, and offered to help her with her "final investigation in Sangfielle" surrounding the situation in Bell Metal Station. As said letter was found on her corpse there, she must not have taken him up on this.
Sister Marisha

> *Eager to guide, and quick to reprimand, she gained a reputation as a well meaning hard ass in the mining town.*
>
>

*– The Almanac of the Heartland Rider*
**Sister Marisha** was the only sister of the Mother-Beast left in Eastern Folly until the events of The Curse of Eastern Folly, when she left for the Priory of the Mother-Beast. She was succeeded as Boundless Conclave temple attendant by Stanislaka. She is described as being a quiet woman in her 50s.

## Trivia

In the episode desription of The Curse of Eastern Folly Pt. 3, the Almanac says she is a caprak, but she is later described as human in the description of The Hymn of the Mother-Beast Pt. 3
Sangfielle 20: What Happened at Bell Metal Station Pt. 4

## Episode Description

> In Sangfielle, it’s rare enough to find an answer to a mystery, and rarer still to find one with the clarity and quality needed to convince someone *else* that it is, in fact, an answer at all. Such is the case with Lye Lychen, Pickman, and Duvall here in Bell Metal Station. Yes, they have a truth — a Truth even, with a capital T — but to those on the outside, it looks and feels like something else. Too impossible, too painful, too volatile to be the truth. But it always is. And it is in this moment of volatility that, for the first time, the Blackwick Group can see something larger take shape. Something with the sort of fatal and formative force that transforms pleasant parts into uneasy wholes.

Etienne Alize

**Etienne Alize** is a (or the) Deacon of the Blood in the Triadic Pyre.

He is a sickly pale yellow-green Drakkan with a pair of pince-nez. He wears a black wide-brimmed hat and a long black coat you might mistake for robes, and carries a doctor's bag.

He boarded the Jade Moon at Bridge Cathedral, and thence provides medical services to those onboard.
The Panic

> *First they noticed the soil had turned. Then it was the water. Then it was the dead walking, the ground slipping away. Then they got afraid. They call it "the panic," I think because it's easier to swallow than facing it head on and calling it what it is: "The Truth."*
>
>

*– The Almanac of the Heartland Rider*
The **Panic** was a period of time around 200 years ago when the people of Sangfielle took notice of the illness of the land and fled.

Storms and dust came, the soil turned barren, animals became twisted, the dead walked, reality left. And then the Shape came.

As many people fled as they could. Primarily the wealthy (particularly Aldominans) succeeded in this, often leaving behind the people that they had exploited or enslaved.

## Meta information

### Debut

"The Perpetual Oratorio of Davia Pledge Pt. 3"

**Davia Pledge** is a reclusive composer and former socialite known as "the Mad Composer of Sapodilla". She is controversial and taboo amongst the upper class there, but also highly popular.

It is rumored that she invites people to private concerts at her residence, after which they disappear, but no one is ever able to name more specific details. Within the past year, Davia also has been releasing "Pledge Cylinders", the first recorded music in the heartland outside that from the Blackwick Mines. These records, resembling real life phonograph canisters, are in a syncopated style resembling the jazz in the Sleeping City, and affect their surroundings magically.

This page contains information that is a spoiler for The Perpetual Oratorio. If you do not wish to know the secrets of the heartland, please turn back.

After the death of her partner Lady Ziziliana Esterhazy in the fire at Pledge House, Davia planned to destroy the Glim Macula and the remaining aristocracy of Sapodilla, believing that they were responsible and that there was nothing worth preserving within the city. She used the energy provided by splitting the Remembrance of the Zahir into two halves to kickstart the operation of a machine that would take decades to build up its strength enough to finally destroy the city.

However, once unleashed, Virtue Mondegreen thwarted this plan by absorbing the energy of the Oratorio for her own nefarious purposes. In despair at having lost her life's work, Pledge met her as she emerged from the underground, and the two conversed about their view of Sapodilla. After saying goodbye to the god she had cared for, Pledge walked away along the beach.
Sangfielle 31: Hark! The Citadel Beneath Pt. 4

## Episode Description

> Oh, our Blackwick Group. They move below even "the depths of Sapodilla" now, to a place where cold stone floors drift apart, revealing muck and raw emptiness where mortar should be. And beyond that, a clockwork device like none they've ever seen. Yet even as they draw closer to their goals, she watches and waits for her opportunity to strike: the tangled madame of the House of Puppets, Mabriella du Feza...

Katonya

**Katonya** is a Cleaver hired by the Bell Metal Band to help destroy the Red Zephyr.

## Appearance

Katonya is very large, even for an Ojantani: eight or ten feet tall. Her horns are sharp and vicious, scarred from battle, and she has a long wolf-like snout with sharp teeth. Her skin is bubbling, iridescent pitch. She wields a polearm taller than her for which the blade is the jawbone of some large animal; to attack at long distances, she also has a large cannon repurposed from a boat.

Sangfielle 37: Just Returns Pt. 1

## Episode Description

> With the ersatz town of Marrow Creek behind them, the members of the Blackwick Group still onboard the Jade Moon find themselves consumed with personal projects, personal schemes, and personal excess. Marn finds herself between raw *nothing* and a place with the vibrant air of *everything all at once*. Es investigates the limits of “room service.” Pickman sturdies herself for a troubling conversation. Duvall, as he is wont to do, continues to investigate the ever-changing self. And there is, of course, the matter of a card tournament.

Endless Ember

The **Endless Ember** was a perpetually burning coal used as a stove on the *Prince Alexander*’s dining car. When the Red Zephyr knocked this car off the train, flipping it over, the ember set fire to most everything inside. The people inside were unable to escape, as the doors were jammed shut.

Lye Lychen and the Bell Metal Band later salvaged it from the crashed car. As it was dangerous, they had to contain it within a Shapeknight helmet; of course, Lyke soon put it right in his bag, next to the dormant god, also harmful.

A running joke on the show is that the Endless Ember is radioactive, as most real life rocks that constantly emit heat are.

In Episode 27, Lyke used the Endless Ember in his second desperate attempt at a ritual to prevent Virtue Mondegreen from taking the power of the Perpetual Oratorio into herself, and to trap the Oratorio in a pocket dimension. Unfortunately, it exploded, burning his hands horribly.
