Falatacot term: beneath the crust of the world, exists a lifeblood, that flows from one focal point to another.[1] It is on Killiata where the Falatacot first heard the pulse of the Blood of the World.[2] The Falatacot believed that the power of the world flowed through their very veins. They would bloodlet, and sacrifice all in the name of their Old Gods, to draw themselves closer to the Blood of the World.[1]
The Falatacot found that on Killiakta, or Dereth, it was most concentrated, and plentiful.[1]
Whatever came before, the Old Ones, the Gromnatross, placed a series of markers, that highlighted positions of immense concentration.[1]
The Gelidites believed that the Blood of the World was nothing more than an energy, much akin to mana.[1]
The Gelidites, specifically the sect of the Disciples of the Blood found that there were four poles, for lack of a more satisfying term that held more power than any other. There using their command of Geomantic arts they dug into the earth and created, large stone structures. But the progress there was muted as they hit a point at which they were rebuffed by the Blood's own essence. It was then they chose another approach. Utilizing their control of Geomancy again, they began crafting a new column that surrounded the focus of these Vein's. Here they constructed huge furnaces that were meant to collect the excess Blood (mana) from within the shell of the world. [1]
Since the Gelidites lacked a living form, they theorized more than practiced on Blood Rituals. A theory around Elementary Magic resulted, which held that mana could be refractured in four intrinsic elements:[1]
- Consumption - Fire
- Stimulation - Lightning
- Stasis - Frost
- Decay/Entropy - Acid
- Consumption - Fire
