Coterie of the Hollow Saint
The Coterie of the Hollow Saint is a secretive sect discussed of only in the darkest corners of Othvarand. Its members are said to follow the teachings of a long-dead prophet who sought to sever the soul from fate itself, embracing silence, pain, and revelation in equal measure. Some believe this to be Thamryss the Mirror from the Imorean Celestiarchivum, although this is not agreed upon.
Rituals of the Coterie are cloaked in mystery—scarification, fasting, and recitation of rites in a forgotten tongue. It is said they seek freedom from the Great Chain and to dismantle Law itself. Others claim they prepare for something greater, something hidden beneath Othvarand's deep earth.
The Church of Holy Law deems them heretical and dangerous, but their numbers persist, especially in the wild margins where the reach of Law falls short.
