Project Crescendo · Historical world

Malice

A realm shaped by the children of Mother, the gods who feared them, and societies built through adaptation, belief, conflict, and survival.

A place to begin

A world whose people had to discover what living meant.

The earliest accounts tell of Mother's children awakening into unfamiliar bodies and landscapes. Theirs is a world where survival and adaptation are inseparable, and where settlements, faiths, and governments emerge from those first uncertain steps.

As the eras pass, the legends turn to blessed rulers, divine power, the Citadel, raiders, conflict among churches, and the fate of a succession of Sovereigns.

This introductory overview is drawn from historical Crescendo development material. Detailed articles will be added only after the sources and their differing accounts have been reviewed.
