The Oracle is a Storm Giant Quintessent who manifests like the Nameless King from Dark Souls 3. The 5 giant lords conspired with the Kraken, who takes on a role similar to Aaron the Moor in the Shakespeare play Titus Andronicus, in addition to Iymrith (who takes on a role similar to the Queen of Goths), in the elimination of the Queen and Hekaton. The Kraken and Iymrith plan on supplanting the Storm Giant's rule with their own, taking control of the Wyrmskull Throne, and using the other 5 giant lords as Apocalyptic Horsemen who will go to war with the Smallfolk and destroy each other. Iymrith wants to do this both for her hated of the giants (Storm Giants killed her brood), her love for the kraken (he seduced her with his psionics), and her desire to rise to godhood amongst dragons to be like the Great Mother Tiamat and to be a god alongside her Kraken love, who also wishes to return to divinity (as all Krakens want to, so they can return home to the gods). Doing these things to add a more Shakespearean feel to my game. Working on fleshing out more things too in order to really bring home that tragic, 5 act-play style of story.</p></blockquote><p></p>
