History

In the relatively short span of four months, the clandestine organization known as the Eye of Chaos materialized from the dark corners of Grimgate, its elusive presence marked by whispers and rumors that hinted at unparalleled skills in thievery and subterfuge. The city's denizens knew little of the guild's true nature, their awareness limited to vague speculations about a shadowy force operating within the criminal underworld. The first tangible act attributed to the Eye of Chaos occurred when a strategically coordinated operation saw the deliberate burning of a warehouse owned by the influential merchant Aldus Forgemantle. The subsequent flames cast an unsettling glow across the night sky, leaving the city authorities perplexed and the populace questioning the motives behind this audacious act. Shortly thereafter, reports emerged of ambushes on commoners traveling the roads near Grimgate, allegedly orchestrated by members of the Eye of Chaos. Tales of stolen valuables and mysterious assailants added an air of danger and unpredictability to the region. The leadership of Aldus Forgemantle became a focal point, yet the true intentions and extent of the guild's influence remained shrouded in secrecy, fostering an atmosphere of growing intrigue and fear throughout the Kingdom of Mera.
