Vel Tuturi History Tomes

Written by and bufiogarugi
The Vel Tuturi history tomes are a collection of the historical writings kept by the Vel Tuturi. These records are sacred to the Vel Tuturi, and they will stop at nothing to protect them from being destroyed.
The writings were said to begin their lives as scrolls kept by the Vel To'ori, before being rewritten into books for easier protection and safekeeping.

Purpose

The history tomes are meant to keep records of the ancient stories from before the present era. As such, they are of high importance to the Vel Tuturi, and are often kept in great libraries or churches.
On some occasions, copies of the history tomes have also been kept in universities for the purpose of education and safekeeping.

Historical Details

Background

The Vel Tuturi believe that these documents were originally secret scrolls that were hidden away from the Tridomatrics. They were simple records of events as they happened, written by someone who had witnessed the event or taken part in it.

History

It is believed that the scrolls were rewritten into a series of books for the sake of easier reading and transportation. This was after the event they called The Great Rebellion, in which the predecessors to the Vel Tuturi rose up to overthrow the ones they called "the Tridomatrics".

Legacy

These books are seen as the ultimate record of truth and history. They are frequently used to teach students about the world's history.

Vel Tuturi History Tomes

The following are some excerpts from several of the Vel Tuturi history tomes

"We have not always been the rulers of the world. Once upon a time, we were trampled beneath the feet of the Tridomatrics. They enslaved us, mocked us, abused us. Until one day we could take no longer, and we rose up to attack them.
The Tridomatrics were angered by this act of rebellion. How dare we question them and their divine authority? Didn't we know that their word was law? We refused to back down, however. Their herecy against our great Vel Ghiti had gone on for far too long, and their mistreatment of us was going to end."

"After years and years of tireless fighting, we had finally succeeded. We had finally overthrown the Tridomatric tyrants. We installed our own ruler, someone who would lead us to prosperity under our god the Vel Ghiti. This new ruler became known as the first High Priest, the supreme ruler of all the land."

---

"There were several small scuffles during the early years of our new regime. The Tridomatrics and other heretics were indignant at having been bested by those they once trampled over and squashed beneath their feet. These scuffles were quickly ended thanks to the might and cleverness of our holy army. Some heretics, at the mere sight of the holy army's insignia, turned and fled on the spot. Those who didn't were slaughtered. The Vel Ghiti has no use of stubborn heretics."
