Marching From The Fallen Star; The Concordance

 Adapted From- The Star Tide


The Concordance is a unique and influential faction within the realm of Gedan. Unlike conventional churches or temples, the Concordance operates as a confederation of high priests representing the major religions and pantheon of gods worshipped in the realm. These high priests convene as necessary to address significant issues that concern all faiths and have the power to make momentous decisions that carry more weight than any single church or temple could individually impart.

The purpose of the Concordance is to foster collaboration and unity among the diverse religious institutions of Gedan. Despite the variations in beliefs and practices across the pantheon of gods, the high priests recognize the importance of working together for the greater good. Just as the gods collaborate to influence the universe, the priests of different faiths occasionally assemble to work in common cause, pooling their wisdom and resources to address challenges that affect the entire realm.

In times of dire need or great importance, the Concordance calls upon its member churches to send champions who can be entrusted with holy quests. These quests are bestowed upon individuals or parties chosen for their dedication, skill, and commitment to upholding a holy cause or serving a higher purpose. Champions selected by the Concordance are considered to be representatives of multiple faiths, emphasizing unity and cooperation among the different religious traditions.

For parties seeking to serve a higher purpose or uphold a holy cause in the world of Gedan, aligning with the Concordance offers an opportunity to be part of something greater than themselves. It provides a platform for characters to engage in meaningful quests, navigate the complexities of interfaith dynamics, and contribute to the well-being of the realm as a whole.
