Four migrants arrived on the 6th of Malachite
One of them worships Osod Tombsphantom, a dwarven god of death. That god is from The Anvil of Carnality’s gods list, so that’s good, but he is also (according to the archives) pretty popular among necromancers, that figures. I don’t think the worship of that god should be encouraged in Zealpainted.

From the early decades of recorded history, the civilizations surrounding The Teal Ocean were embroiled in an endless struggle against each other. The vast steppe to the east has been populated with numerous sites of those civilizations over the past 550 years. Those centuries have very complicated histories of wars, raids, governments, and groups of outcasts large enough to challenge civilizations. Many sites have lost their original identity, and many have been abandoned to ruin.
