Ascension of Keeper Serrain

Religious event

After an unusual delay before the Flame indicated its will, a controversial choice was proclaimed.

The Cardinal Kaith Serrain, an outspoken advocate of Thrane glory and greater church oversight, ascended. More than for his hard-line stands and provocative rhetoric, Keeper Serrain was an odd choice due to his age. At thirty-one, he was far older at ascension than any other Keeper in recent memory. Concerns about the direction of the Church of the Silver Flame soon quieted, however.   The new Keeper followed the former Keeper’s general policies. Lulled by tempered proclamations, few noticed Keeper Serrain’s steadily accelerating personnel changes in the Diet of Cardinals. Thus was laid the groundwork for Thrane’s dark days.
