The Hidden Order

The story I know of the Hidden Order is as follows:

The gods of their land were still young, like petty children. There was a group of men who wanted to stop these gods, since they would destroy too much and too many lives. They researched magics and ways to stop the gods. The first was a ritual that hid them from these deities. The gods destroyed more, trying to find them. It took them many years, and many generations, but they created a Yannith, testing it on a demigod. The demigod died, and they were happy. They made more, slaying the gods of their world. They believed that their world was ruled by mortals alone. The ones that made the final blow on the gods, they grew in power. They took on the energies and Aspects of the gods they slew. They then became gods. Those who slew more than one were obliterated: it was too much for a mortal body. The few who were left mortal and alive were visited by Time and Death. They explained the powers that were unleashed, and cursed them to be truly hidden. Never dying, never aging; causing all that touched them to wither and die. They would never know the pleasures of the flesh, of food, of love. Severed completely. In short, they were given totally what they desired. A Hidden Order.

The second thing that came to be was that they were to maintain the balance between gods. When the gods began to war, it was up to the Hidden Order to find a replacement. If none could be found, the gods would be removed, and a Ker Al’ian found to protect the realm instead. In this last battle, the Hidden Order sacrificed themselves to make weapons that would aid them in the final protection of their world. All but one; Wormwood.

As of right now, there is a total of five members. Wormwood has found four more to help him since the fall of Wrake.

In short, their power/curse allows them to work completely hidden from the gods.

The Yannith, and the knowledge on creating them and how to hide themselves, was given by the Strangers, through generations to use the Order for their own means. The Strangers mean to take the weapons and knowledge back, which would then reveal the Order to the gods. The gods could then strike back, obliterating the Hidden Order entirely. The Strangers would then be able to use the Yannith to attack and destroy the gods utterly.


As of recent events, the Hidden Order is destroyed. Wormwood was able to give us the warning “this is how the world ends.”
