The Ministry

"GODSEEKERS, PROPHETS IN BLACK. THEY SHALL DROWN THE COSMERE ONCE MORE." - Yun'Shul when asked about The Ministry.

### Description:

The Ministry is a powerful group, it is run by 9 prophets which get stronger the lower the number is. The Ministry holds tight control over the Attunement known as Shadowcast. The Ministry hopes to incur a Great Drowning of this world to become Drowned Gods. The Ministry’s 1st prophet is, according to rumor, a Worldhopper from Pandemonium. The Prophets teach all of The Ministry’s members Shadowcast. The Ministry has a massive amount of Krulian Knives, they hand them out to trusted members. It is also believed that the Prophets likely have them too. Maybe even having other Krulian weapons for the Prophets. The Ministry is pretty secretive and information about them is very limited. They want to abuse a “Turning Point” which will lead to the Canticlysm. The Canticlysm will incur a golden age full of inventions of The Song, this will cause the Drowned Gods to stir and cause The Tides to rise. The Tides shall eventually cause The Great Drowning. They despise The Central Authority due to hatred between the two founders of each groups. They are also opposed to The Divine Order.

### Ranking System:

The Ministry is far more archaic with its ranking system. It is rather chaotic, with little to no official ranks at all besides the Prophets.

Ministry Initiates: Low ranking members of The Ministry. Most of them just joined, and are only taught Shadowcast. They also usually wear black robes.

The Prophets: The 9 Prophets come next, due to The Ministry not bothering to make actual ranks. In order, the most amount of power goes, the 1st Prophet, 2nd Prophet, 3rd Prophet, 4th Prophet, 5th Prophet, 6th Prophet, 7th Prophet, 8th Prophet, and the 9th Prophet. It is worth noting that it isn't limited for there to be 9 Prophets. The 1st Prophet has increased the amount before. For example, a few hundred years ago, there was only 8 Prophets. The Prophets that are confirmed are:

1st Prophet: Signum Flare.

3rd Prophet: The Black Dread/Gore Magala.

4th Prophet: Zi'eer, the Lord Regent.

5th Prophet: Ceres Vicker.

6th Prophet: Amber Fade.

### Relationship(s):

The Divine Order: The Ministry dislikes The Divine Order, as they are completely opposed. On rare occasions, they've worked together due to the similarity between their main goals. But still, they dislike each other. Signum Flare holds hatred for The Divine Order, especially since they've messed up many of his plans. Overall, negative.

The Central Authority: Hatred. That is the main emotion which The Ministry feels towards The Central Authority. Signum Flare himself had personal drama with the founder of The Central Authority, and he still holds hatred towards them. They attempt to interfere with each others plans and stop each other. Strong, strong hatred is felt.

The Guild of Evil's Bane: The Ministry dislikes The Guild due to actions they have done to fight The Ministry in the past. The Black Dread also dislikes Amare's resistance to his plans. Overall, strong dislike.
