[QUOTE="Dyson Logos, post: 9271439, member: 83678"] [ATTACH type="full"]347982[/ATTACH] [B]The Scorched Vault[/B] The worship of Kelnak Kur is rarely allowed in civilized areas, and even the places where it is more widespread are restrictive about where the temples are built. The demon of incandescent fires, patron of fires, purity, and destruction is not a welcomed guest but is worshiped nonetheless. The Scorched Vault is a shrine to Kelnak Kur found outside of Let Gaullu – dug into a stony hill where purifying flames will do little damage to the town or its farms. The priests of incandescent fires are completely hairless and dress in little more than leather kilts and bronze cuirasses. The elder of this temple (the Flamebringer) carries a charred human skull that burns in perpetuity – it is used to deliver the “blessing of Kelnak Kur”, igniting whomever it touches. The Flamebringer is erratic and angry, seeing corruption and impurities in the world and desperately wanting to bring purifying flames to the entire town of Let Gaullu. He knows that the pure will survive, their homes untouched, as the fires of Kelnak Kur destroy the foul presence of government, infidels, the idle, and the impure. And while the worship of the lord of incandescent fires is actually supported locally, the majority of the laity find the Flamebringer to be a most terrifying voice of the demon – most would much prefer one who looked to purify the lands in a less destructive and more “one on one” manner.
