“Arx has become the centre of power for the Divine Order and the base for the Paladins, whose devotion to Lucian and Lucian’s way remains unwavering.
„—Modern Chronicles of Reapers´s Coast by Cranley Huwbert
Arx is one of the major human cities found in the Stormdale region of the world of Rivellon.
Background[]
After Godwoken escape from the Nameless Isle in 1242 AD, Malady transports them near Arx. When Godwoken reach the city gates, they encounter Voidwoken, who are currently troubling the city and are then engaged in battle with Paladins. Only after dealing with said Voidwoken are they given access to the city. Within the city the Godwoken find Paladins gathered in the courtyard of the Magister Barracks that served as headquarters of the Magisters, until the Paladins overthrew and killed them on the assumption that they had allied themselves with the Black Ring.
Within the city Godwoken the Godwoken may proceed into the Cathedral and attempt the Path of Blood to gain access into the Crypt of Lucian. Hpwever first they need to pass the judgement of the Simulacrum of Lucian that judges all who try to reach the last resting place of the Divine. Should the Godwoken prove to be impure in any way they will be killed on spot by the statue and therefore they have to resort to seeking help from Lord Arhu and toyseller Sanders.
The Eternal Prayer[]
"Ever since the death of Lucian and the interment of his sacred remains in the crypt of Arx Cathedral, people have prayed without pause for his return to life and divinity. It began with a gathering of a handful of devout souls that would keep vigil day and night without end. While some slept, the others prayed, and vice versa. They would often be joined by other pilgrims, and as Lucian Day bloomed from local fair into a realm-wide phenomenon, so did the Eternal Prayer become an institution as inseparable from Lucian’s worship as the cathedral that spawned it, and indeed became a permanent fixture of the city of Arx." - Modern Chronicles of Reapers´s Coast by Cranley Huwbert
