Cyber Recession

Apparently putting microchips in everything and have anything and everything run on batteries or connected to the grid was a bad idea. The use of fossil fuels quadrupled due to each class of nation 'evolving' up the tier list. As the Aarde's use of technology increased exponentially, so did its requirements for power to run that technology, regardless of Cyber, 1st World, 2nd World or 3rd World--any 4th World county that still existed in this era were no different to tribals or cavemen.

Unlike the dot-com boom at the end of the 20th Century--in which the internet(software) had unlimited space to expand and exist virtually, the cyber boom or cyber revolution had a limit to which it could exist physically, resulting of an atrocious amount of e-waste once the products were expended or unwanted.

Data on the other hand, can be erased and deleted, it's hard-drive or solid-state drive easily recycled and refurbished.

As a result, 2nd & 3rd World Countries ceased to exist as they suffered from power outages, food shortages, and then the typical civil war or coup d'état.

Eventually, this lead to another Global War, but though this was often referred to by the lesser-educated as World War 3 as alluded to in popular written fiction, this was more of a Global Battle Royal between dogs to see who would win over each other's scraps of rotting meat.

Some countries died, some countries teamed up to kill other countries, some countries double-crossed each other, some countries reigned supreme above all else and some were simply self-sustainable and abstained from the Cyber Revolution--and never took part in this Global War in the Era of the Cyber Recession.

The loser in the end was still Mankind. The internet ceased to exist as a result of each nation's military shooting each other's satellites down, with many undersea cables being sabotaged or cut by all sides to impede the 1st World and Cyber World Countries.

The end result was only 1st World and Post-Cyber World Countries surviving and getting by with their own still-working national intranet systems, with 2nd World Countries on the brink of death. 3rd World Countries cannibalised and self-destructed. Aarde in the third-quarter of the 22nd Century eventually receded to a technological state equivalent to that in the fourth-quarter of the 20th Century.

Also, any pioneer communities with less than 5000 people on the Moon or the neighbouring planets starved to death due to the lack of constant trade and resupply during the Cyber Recession.
Magical Mana Lamp

Congratulations! You have three wishes! The genie inside it is bound to three laws:

1- He cannot find artifacts for you.
2- He cannot make any harm or good to your fellow scavengers.
3- He cannot solve your gps drifting problems.

Actually, you don't have any wishes, since Aladdin freed him and he is no longer a slave anymore.

The lamp is really well crafted, and that's the reason he made it his permanent home.
Pac-Snitch

### Description

"It's very hard to catch because it's so fast and twitchy. It's the Ghost's job to catch it"

It was unsettling when It, experimenting on his toys, combined a Pac-Man with a golden snitch retrieved from Hogwarts Forbidden Forest. He had created a Pac-Snitch: A Pac-Man who could fly and break free from its locked maze.

And so it did.

And so did the Ghosts who were trying to kill it.

Now we live in a world full of multi-colored ghosts trying to reach it first.

But not while this order is still alive!

Congratulations scavenger! You managed to catch this annoyingly fast artifact! And you did it before the Ghost could do it!
Reliquary

This is where you put all Magical things you can put your hands on. It is so well designed, you can only keep artifacts in it. Anything other than that will be lost.

Artifacts are categorized by their rarity and tags.

Rarity: Shard - Common - Rare - Legendary - Grand

Tags:
Evil - Gem - Golden - Magical - Metallic - Nature - Tech - Undead.
Metallic Urn

There was a time, when It wanted to make our time discovering artifacts last longer. But keeping the artifacts hidden in those urns drove order's members insane, so the idea was destroyed. All the urns discovered turned into *useless* relics occupying space in member's vault. And the first one - Metallic Urn - is held as an artifact.
The Downed Kite Conundrum - Special Event

Johnson Kite is something of an oddity in the annals of Speed Brawl's history. An American boxer with a penchant for fast horseless carriages, and favouring a fight style of high combo counts! Johnson fights exclusively in the Sixpence leagues and is frequently seen in rage-gauge events where consistent combos must be performed.
The Megnatron

### Description

"The Order's boldest plan ended up being their own doom. The construction of the Megnatron took it's toll on scavenger's lives, for they didn't know how powerful the force they were tinkering with was"

It is big and bold, as our dream of finding all artifacts. It is now one of many satellites roaming around our planet.

There is the saying: "Shall you gathered all artifacts, shall the Megnatron's light expire, shall eternal glory shines above the order"
The Bermondsey Bout - Challenge IV / Rage!

The Sixpence league has a reputation for frenetic violence and a deafening brawl cacophony. The overly bright and sharp sound is a result of the curved Sixpence tunnels being incredibly good at reflecting sound. Beware of seemingly-authentic Selenite resin for ear protection. Reports indicate unscrupulous merchants are using Ripper dung in place of the more-costly resin.
Followers

Some people call them they.

It's a mythical order of scavengers, who search the world for old artifacts from ancient times. They are very mysterious its mystery is exceeded only by it's power.

If you are reading this, you now **MUST** download the app, as you are now part of the order. If you fail to do so, on the seventh night, angry ants will crawl from under your bed and consume your soul.
The Merciless Mile - Championship III

During the war, naval recruits who washed out of basic training were forced to walk a solitary parade wherein other recruits and naval officers could hurl insult and derision. A worse fate met those who were dismissed with disgrace, who found a cabal of club-carrying masked officers ready to dish out a punishing final salute. Jack honours this tradition with this event.

The One Nut

Forged by the Dark Lord Sauron during The Second Age, The One Ring was forged to gain dominion over the free people of middle-earth.

"One ring to rule them all", it was said. Such a pity it fell into mountain doom, where it became The One Nut after countless years. All its power is gone, but you can still use it to screw Them all.
The Darkman's Budge - Championship IV

Hastily thrown together following Willy Adams' shock departure from the Threepenny leagues, this race does not shirk on spectacle or violence. In fact, so many lapsed fans have returned to watch this run that the current enforcer union holding the Threepenny reigns has vowed to keep Willy Adams from returning.

GRAF 444th Black Knights Division

## Summary

The elite assault units of the GRNA Army that employ "Shock Trooper-like Tactics". Military reforms and reorganisations eventually allowed this once-niche unit to detach from the umbrella of the Grand Republic's Ground Force Branch and form their own branch, allowing for better management of funds and freedom of operations.
UH-660 Black Mynah

## History

**The Thanatos Heavy Industries UH-660 Black Mynah** (formerly Pixel Kinetics) is a five-bladed, twin-engine, medium-lift utility helicopter manufactured by the Pixel Kinetics, Aerospace Division. PT Kinetics submitted the base design in 2017 for the Ussean Defence Force Next-Generation Medium-Helicopter competition. After multiple delays, the Black Mynah V1 design was finally selected by Ussean High Command in 2027 as the competition's winner beating out other designs from it's sister states, most notably, the Echelon-State Thanatos Heavy Industries YUH-666 Dragoon.

Named after the most common native species of bird in South-East Asiatica, the UH-660A saw immediate replacement in the Ussean Defence Force's Heliborne Infantry and Special Forces Units, replacing the 20th Century old West Royal UH-10 Icarus as the UDF's premier strategic transport helicopter.

Interesting to note that the Police Variant, the UH-660P rolled out by its civilian contractor & ex-competitor, Thanatos Heavy Industries, who was more experienced in law-enforcement and private security technologies at that time.

Eventually, in the latest reccession before the Seven-Day War, Pixel Kinetics was bought out by THI, with a 51/49 approval by the Ussean Government.

## Current Use

With the coming of Cyber Revolution in the 21st Century, the Cyber Recession 22nd Century and the God Revolution in the 23rd, the Black Mynah has remained the mainstay simply by Fate, as every helicopter program to succeed and replace it, like the Future-Generation and the VTOL-Generation Competitions, were cancelled due to colossal cost of replacing the entire 7000-strong military fleet, as well as the absence of the minimum 50% parts commonality that the UDF sought, as well of the higher fuel consumption of the VTOL "Dropships" testbeds.

As the result, the Ussean Vanguard still uses the UH-660V Black Mynah as it's troop-carrying mainstay, despite its formation bearing the abbreviation of: 'VTOL Air Navy Ground Urban Assault Rapid Deployment'.

Cassie

Little is known of Cassie's backstory, least of all by herself. Brought up roughly on the streets of Paris, Cassie remembers a slew of half-brothers, second-cousins, and several distant uncles but none of her close family. Her street-family eked out a living as burglars, pickpockets and criminals for hire.

During the Universal Exposition of 1878, everything changed for Cassie. In the middle of a heist gone awry, Cassie eluded authorities by sneaking into the luggage of a group of English children visiting the expo. When she emerged, she discovered she was already onboard a boat bound for Dover. Once in London, her skills and guile quickly earned her a place in Willy Adams' cabal of hoodlums.
Age of Orphans

After the Seven-Day War many children in Asiatica, both South and North were left parentless, and were forced to fend for themselves. This led to many teenagers entering the religious services, government and military at a young age to support themselves--at least the good ones did.

For the lower class of orphans, they were assigned to the construction industry or the makeshift border infantry. Veralisa Sindile was rumoured to be in the First Pixaeli Infantry under Lord Vega at a point of time before her death, serving as her personal aide and signaller.
God Particle

Found in the mineral 'Godite', a named coin by several 'unnamed researches, pilgrims and settlers' from Paradise Island's Great Aquifer.

Harnessed from the ground as fragments along with traditional crude oil--and found in many historic meteor crater sites, this 'toxic impurity' was considered worthless in the 19th and 20th Century until the famed Scientist Sun-Tzu von Riktofen further investigated the 'toxic properties' of Godite.

He found that the type of toxicity was not that of a normal

Pixel

Pixel serves as the political centre and central business hub for the whole of Ussea. It is made of of multiple districts and houses several command and training bases, as well as old preserved colonial infrastructure ranging from bungalows, courthouses, forts and castles.

The current active military bases in Pixel are as follows:

* Fort Stamford, Southern Pixel, 1st Pixaeli Infantry Division HQ
* Fort Farquhar, Western Pixel, 185th UDF Joint Communications Command HQ
* Fort Goliath, Northern Pixel, 105th Pixaeli Airborne Infantry Division HQ
* Fort David, Eastern Pixel, 4th Pixaeli Mechanised Infantry Division HQ
* Lionsmouth Naval Base, Aerial Armada, Pixaeli Fleet and Flotilla Command HQ

Majority of those who hold a high socioeconomic status (High SES) reside in the southernmost bay area district of Lionsmouth, and the eastern coastline of Temple Pines.

The central district of Bakkanal stands as a sector in Pixel with the greatest disparity of High-to-Low SES Ratio with a factor of 1:7, compared to other areas within Pixel.
God Revolution

Through many trials and tribulations, one Man's mind persisted and endeavoured through the ages. Sun-Tzu von Riktofen. Though assumed dead in the 21st Century, and forgotten with the coming of the Cyber Revolution and the Cyber Recession, his various Works of Wonder has kept the last remaining nations safe and secure.

With the overuse of fossil fuels to Man's own detriment the 'resurgence' of the reuse of the Sun-Tzu's God Particle Reactors were seen in the closing days of the Cyber Recession and in the transition into the 23rd Century.

Though the original 'God Revolution' is argued to have happened in as early as the late-20th Century, the GPRs saw limited use in the global stage, it's power harnessed only by Superpowers from the 1st and Cyber World Countries.

By 2200, most Cyber World Countries had devolved and down-scaled back to First World Countries, and those who were previously as First World Countries eventually collapsed due to the lack of intellectual infrastructure to quickly research and develop the God Particle Reactor technology.

The only known unofficial First World Nation to still-exist and persist is the autonomous region of Tengahsi, also known as the Kanatan Overseas Territories, that are currently managed by the Kanatan Colonial Administration, and defended by the Tengahsi Foreign Legion comprised of Kanatan & Tengahsi born regulars and Tengahsi conscripts.

*Rare and expensive, spices are not found at all tables. Moreover, the population is convinced of a hierarchy of elements based on their proximity to the Divine: Fire precedes Air, which is above Water, which covers Earth. Vegetables, which grow in the least noble of the elements, are meant for the most destitute, while birds, which fly across the heavens, generally end up on the plates of lords.*
Codex

## History

### The de Rune Legacy

Amicia is wandering around the kitchen when she spots a stairwell heading upstairs, to the storeroom. She climbs it and she's attracted by the penetrating aroma emitted by cinnamon, which is one of the five spices contained in an apposite bowl.

As the Inquisition soldiers seize the de Rune estate, it is highly probable that such delicacies are stolen due to their high value. The latter hypothesis is also supported by the fact that Amicia and Lucas fail to find them again when they return to the house.

## Related Dialogues

*Mmm... Cinnamon! I'd almost forgotten what it smells like! They were right to hide it - Father would put it in every dish...*[src]

## Trivia

* Although it is possible to notice five different spices into the bowl, Amicia is solely interested in the cinnamon, which also may well be her father's favorite one.

Aelia Dragas

*Unum tueri omnes tuendo.
"Protect one, protect all."*[src]
Aelia

**Aelia Dragas** was the protector of Basilius.

## Biography

### Background and Early Life

Aelia was a soldier in training when the Order assigned her to look after Basilius, the first carrier of the Prima Macula from around the year 541 A.D. Aelia eventually became his protector, and the two were always together until Basilius reached the Final Threshold of the Macula's progression and was set to die. When this happened, Basilius was taken to a secret holding facility while Aelia was sent off to prison due to her opposition to the idea.

While in prison, Aelia had left clues about Basilius' whereabouts in the form of her ring, which she buried along with a symbol indicating that Basilius' holding facility is beneath the ancient stone map Amicia had discovered earlier.

### Death

*I know how it feels... Fighting alone... Fighting not to be alone... I just hope you found peace where you are.*[src]
Amicia

Following Aelia's warpath reveals a brutal engagement between her and the Order's forces. Aelia attempted to get Basilius back from them, single-handedly assaulting the Order's stronghold beneath the island and made it a fairly long way into the base before becoming overwhelmed and succumbing to her wounds. Numerous bodies litter the area around hers.

## Abilities and Skills

*She really gave them hell...*[src]
Sophia

* **Warrior**: To save Basilius, Aelia attacked the Order's stronghold alone, but was eventually overwhelmed and died from her injuries.

## Trivia

* The name **Aelia** is of Ancient Roman/Latin origin, and means "sun"; while **Dragas** is of Serbian origin, and means "dear/beloved".
* Aelia is Amicia's mirrored image, as both are older female "protectors" to younger male carriers, willing to make strenuous efforts to protect the one they love.
* Aelia's rooms contain armor that is heavier and more complete than Amicia's, as well as a rack containing weapons such as a sword, a spear, and a long-handled axe.
* The quote on Aelia's helmet, as well as carved into the stone where she was imprisoned, "protect one, protect all", refers to the fact that if the carrier is kept safe, the Macula will remain controlled. Her job as protector is to keep the carrier from being overwhelmed and releasing the Macula.
* When Vaudin tells Amicia, "Control your flame, Protector... Others have burned in it," he is foreshadowing Aelia's fate.
For Each Other

The de Runes and Lucas depart the region

*I can't wait for us to find a new castle!*
Hugo

"**For Each Other**" is the seventeenth and final chapter of *A Plague Tale: Innocence*. With no combat or conflict, it serves to tie up loose ends and conclude the story.

## Plot

### Synopsis

> All seemed lost. After Arthur's death, Rodric sacrificed himself so Hugo and Amicia could get to Vitalis. Their efforts paid off: The Grand Inquisitor is dead, and Béatrice is reunited with her children.
>
>

### Summary

The sun is bright and a thin blanket of fresh snow covers the ground. Three days have passed since the de Rune siblings Amicia and Hugo laid waste to the Inquisition's headquarters and killed their leader, Vitalis. Rats have not been sighted since then and already there is a sense of peace in the air as people go about their lives.

Amicia has stopped by a town with Hugo to get some medicinal herbs for their mother Béatrice who survived her torture at the hands of the order. However, she needs care and rest to fully recover and they now plan to leave the region of Aquitaine for good. Her errand done, the two begin to walk back but come across a game stall where Amicia uses her sling skills to win her little brother an apple. Learning of a small fair down the street, against Amicia's advice they go to join the fun. However, two men at the gate recognize Hugo and warn the two away, saying "important people" are looking for the siblings. To raise the disappointed Hugo's spirits, the two enjoy a race back to their cart where Lucas is waiting for them, which Amicia lets her brother win.

With everything they need and Béatrice sleeping in the cart, the party of four prepare to leave. Hugo comments that people look at him strangely, as their friend Mélie had before she had leave on her own. However, he accepts the way things are, and Amicia cheers him up by holding goggles over her eyes. As the cart slowly makes its way into the distance, the two siblings and even Lucas can be heard giggling happily, full of hope for their future together as the scene fades to black for the last time.

## Trivia

* Amicia winning the apple as a gift to Hugo seems to reference the earlier "The Strangers" chapter where Amicia refuses to let him eat rotten apples, as Amicia has begun to focus on righting what went wrong in their earlier relationship.

Ussean Defence Force

The Ussean Defence Force (UDF) is the military component of the Ministry of Defence of the United States of South-Eastern Asiatica (USSEA), with the famous and infamous nickname of 'The Seven-Nation Army' in the years leading up to Ussea's birth & recognition as an official nation on Aarde.

The UDF maintains its status-quo as a 'defence force' with majority of its doctrines centered around non-aggression and defensive tactics. This however is not to be mistaken as a lack of offensive measures.

The Ussean Defence Force is famous for its offensive arms like the Aerial Armada and its on-board troops, the Holy Vanguard. Even then, the UDF may not choose the lighter option in any circumstance as it has showed preference in the past for the 'absolute option' of employing their God Particle Bomb wonder weapon to halt any aggressor or foreign invader.

Such 'victims' include the Solarian Shogunate in the Counter-Confrontation and the Grand Republic of Northern Asiatica on the last day of the Seven-Day War.

The UDF relies heavily on a policy of non-discriminatory conscription in all seven branches. 77% of its Army Group is made up of National Guard Reservist Units--Adult Usseans who have completed their 5-year conscript cycle and are placed on a fifty-year emergency recall should a national crisis require the additional manpower network.

## 7-Key Components

The Ussean Defence Force is comprised of 7 key branches:

1. Joint Army
2. Combined Air Force
3. Blue-water Navy Corps
4. Aerial Armada *(formally known as the Airborne Navy)*
5. Holy Vanguard Legion
6. Joint Special Operations Command
7. Cyber-Warfare Command
Discipline

*I wouldn't touch that if I were you...*[src]
Rodric

The **Discipline** is a collectible Curiosity item in *A Plague Tale: Innocence*.

## Official Description

*Faced with an increasing number of orders and cults, the Church implores the Inquisition to strike down heresy to its core by driving out Dulcinians, Fraticelli and Flagellants. The latter are convinced that humanity deserves divine sentencing, and repent by inflicting discipline on themselves in public, lacerating their own flesh with great whips while marching through the streets. Ironically, the Flagellants helped spread the Plague from village to village.*

Red City

The **Red City** is a city in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, specifically the county of Provence, which is under the rule of Count Victor de Arles.

Recently, the Count gave the captain, known as the Beast, more power. Soldiers are kept on duty longer and more often than they are happy with. People seem to think he doesn't care much; his army rules for him.

## Areas

### Marketplace

The market is a bustling area in the city.

### de Rune House

The house provided to the de Runes by the Order is overlooking the marketplace. It has a phoenix weathervane.

### Arena District

The arena is an old building where gladiators would fight each other and various animals, including an elephant. The arena bears the symbol of the Order, and the south tower is home to Vaudin's laboratory.

The arena district is made up of slums surrounding the arena itself. Its inhabitants are poor, lower-class citizens. When Amicia and Lucas explore this district in Chapter II: Newcomers, they discover the arena has been quarantined and soldiers are forcing those who fall ill to the Bite to stay inside. The plague is being kept secret, and in the marketplace, people can be heard discussing the arena's shut-down and the bad smell, attributing both to the arena pigs getting sick.

### Butcher's District

The butcher's district is just off of the marketplace. The whole district smells like rotten flesh, and there is blood in the streets. Amicia comments that the whole area is just bait for the rats.

Amicia and Lucas explore this district in "Bloodline".

### Fort

The fort is the head of operations in the Red City. It is at the tallest point and overlooks the rest of the city. This is where Amicia and Lucas are brought to be executed in "Bloodline".

## Trivia

* Given the distinctive design of the city, the Red City may be intended to be, or otherwise inspired by Arles, particularly its Ancient Roman arena transformed into an inhabited sector, although this is never indicated in the game.

Horseshoe

*... a little luck would be appreciated...*[src]
Amicia

The **Horseshoe** is a collectible Curiosity item in *A Plague Tale: Innocence*.

## Official Description

*As quality of life improves, population size grows faster than food production. Added to the various plagues befalling the crops, this makes famine take on a dramatic dimension, pushing poor and rich to superstition. Despite their new role as good luck charms, horseshoes are still expensive pieces of ironwork that are crucial to farming. Using them to attract luck is a major sacrifice for a farmer.*

Ballastella

Ballastella "Jacob's staff"

*Lucas, is this of any use to us?*[src]
Amicia to Lucas about the ballastella

The **Ballastella** is a collectible Gift item in *A Plague Tale: Innocence*.

## Official Description

*The ballastella is as useful a tool in astronomy as it is in the military arts, and it spread far and wide in the early thirteenth century. Capable of highly precise measurements, it is used to calculate angles and distances, particularly for calibrating siege weapons. When combined with a compass this instrument allows attackers to take control of the field, giving them a definite strategic advantage.*

The **Vinegar of the Four Thieves** is a collectible Gift item in *A Plague Tale: Innocence*.

## Official Description

*There is a particularly widespread legend of four thieves who found a way to plunder contaminated houses without being struck by evil themselves. When they were finally stopped, the robbers were promised not to be burned at the stake if they revealed their secret. They agreed, making the details of their mysterious recipe public, and were hanged on the spot. The effectiveness of their recipe remains highly questionable.*

Inquisitor's Manual

*There's actually a manual for this shit?*[src]
Mélie

The **Inquisitor's Manual** is a collectible Curiosity item in *A Plague Tale: Innocence*.

## Official Description

*Bernard Guidoni, Inquisitor of Languedoc, wrote a manual for his peers at the beginning of the fourteenth century, thought of as an aid to their work. Acting as a legal code, it lists the heresies to be condemned, the corresponding penalties, and the procedures to be followed. For the sake of ethics, it favors the common good rather than that of individuals and advocates cruel sentences in order to make examples that instill a sense of terror among the people.*

The **Reading Stone** is a collectible Curiosity item in *A Plague Tale: Innocence*.

## Official Description

*After centuries of ignorance, theories about how human vision works now abound. We started by believing that our eyes send out rays revealing objects around us, before finally understanding that, in fact, the opposite is the case. People began to find remedies for vision problems; a good example is the creation of rough eyeglasses that improved their wearers' sight of objects nearby.*

Seemingly Fun Old Board Game

Do not start this game if you do not want to finish it. It is alive and this board traps people since 1995.

Oh... you did start it, right? Dumb you. I don't wanna be the one to say it, but...

I've told you...

Now you are trapped...

My sole advice is to stay away from trouble, don't lose your dices, and finish it as fast as you can.

Plus, look for Robin Williams, he might still be playing it.

Rascasse

The Rascasse as it sails

The ***Rascasse*** is Sophia's ship. Arnaud Malpart describes it as fast and discreet.

## History

The *Rascasse* is captained by a smuggler, Sophia the Sea Scorpion. When it is first seen, the *Rascasse* has been put in dry dock by the Count's soldiers. Amicia, Hugo, Arnaud, and Sophia break it free.

### Namesake

A *Rascasse* is a type of scorpionfish found in the Mediterranean. A soldier at the dry docks can be overheard complaining that the ship is bad luck due to its namesake being considered unlucky.

## Design and Layout

The *Rascasse* has a small poop deck, an observation deck, and a simple guardrail. The cargo hold is accessed by a hatch between the mast and the cabin. It only has one large sail and requires a small crew. The hull is decorated with a variety of shields, and a red pattern is painted around the ship.

### Bow and Deck

Some general cargo is stored at the bow.

There are animal figurines on a barrel near the cabin. Amicia speculates that they look like they might be from Africa, and it looks like Hugo was playing with them.

### Cabin

The captain's quarters are in the cabin. Sophia has a comfortable bed inside, as well as golden necklaces and rings, incense, herbs and unguents (which Sophia uses effectively to help Hugo), and maps. In "A Sea of Promises", Sophia's prized prism can be found on one of the shelves in an open red box.

The cabin has a unique smell that Amicia describes as smelling like "dozens of places at the same time". Hugo simply describes it as smelling like a horse.

### Cargo Hold

Sophia stores treasures in the cargo hold, as well as three beds for her crew. She keeps rare books, a compass, and an astrolabe; a tool used to navigate using the stars.

### Stern and Upper Deck

The stern is the back of the ship. It's on an upper deck, above the cabin, and it's where Sophia steers.

## Trivia

* After seeing the stick Sophia was using to steer, Sophia's voice actor, Anna Demetriou, asked the lead writer, Sébastien Renard, if the *Rascasse* would have a "proper steering wheel". He replied that "unfortunately" the rudder is historically accurate the way it is - though he seemed to wish the ship could have a classic pirate-ship steering wheel.

Brother Morel

*Brother Morel should be here. We are the last two remaining.*[src]
Father Thomas

**Brother Morel** was a minor character in *A Plague Tale: Innocence*.

A French monk, he was one of the many unfortunate victims in the early stages of the Bite.

## History

### Background and Early Life

Little is known of Morel except that he was a monk at the church of an afflicted town in France, not far from the de Rune family estate. Along with the other monks, before they fled or died off, he set about breaking apart furniture and chopping wood to create material for fire and barricades to deal with the rats. He also may have helped his fellow monks in trying to treat the sick in the village hospice.

### Retribution

By the time Amicia de Rune and her brother Hugo arrived and met Father Thomas, he was the only other monk left.

### Death

*It's... a monk... The other brother...*[src]
Amicia comes across the monk's body

As Father Thomas led the two children into the Crypt of the Three Saints, he expected to find his fellow monk somewhere nearby and, giving Amicia the torch, stepped away to go find him, calling his name but getting no reply. A sudden gust of wind blew out the candles, allowing a swarm of Rats to appear and eat Thomas alive. As Amicia and Hugo used the rat's fear of light to push further down the tunnel, they found Morel on a set of stairs... or what little was left of him. His legs and most of his entrails had been entirely eaten away, as had the skin on his head. He likely had been caught in the dark as well, dead long before they had arrived.

Thankfully, his and Thomas' work building barricades and making safe areas with torches, braziers, and firewood throughout the tunnel would allow Amicia and Hugo to successfully escape the tunnel and continue their journey.
