The Griefbound Communion
From Velthuryn
| The Griefbound Communion | |
|---|---|
| Faction Type | Religious |
| Faction Size | Medium; cult-like cells connected by ritual |
| Overview | The Griefbound believe griefglass is sacred—formed from the world’s pain and meant to be felt, not avoided. They perform rites that intentionally expose participants to memory bleed, shared sorrow, and emotional resonance, claiming it brings clarity and truth. |
| Ideology | Resonance: Release
Authority: Cultural Memory / History: Experience |
| Motivations & Tactics | They aim to “wake” Velthuryn emotionally, even if it causes suffering. Their tactics include pilgrimages to resonance zones, ritual use of griefglass, and deliberate provocation of Echo Adversaries to reveal hidden truths. |
| Locations | Myrrun Hollow, Sunlash, Ohlai, Nokhul Vale |
