CCrypt of the Sacred Blood
Just southwest of Stonebridge lies the Crypt
of the Sacred Blood—site of one of the bloodiest
battles of the Liberation, and the most honored burial place in all
of Ehb.
Interred there alongside the kings and queens of Ehb are the martyrs
of Azunai and the heroes, commanders, and grand mages of the
10
th
Legion, many of whom fell during the last days of the War of
Legions.
The site was consecrated with the blood of the 10th Legion soldiers
who sacrifi ced their lives to free Ehb during the Seck Rebellion. In
a single day of battle, nearly a quarter of the Legion’s forces died
ghting a hardened corps of Seck warriors. Surveying the corpses
strewn over the battlefi eld, Legion Commander Karese Noanni ordered
the site cleared and excavated for a crypt. “By my oath, they shall
be remembered and revered, or nothing we do hath a spark of honor
in it.”
There is no greater honor than to be laid to rest in this sacred ground,
and no greater duty than making a pilgrimage to pay respect to the
heroes lying within.
“From this day forth, all that is achieved
shall be purchased with the blood of these
valiant hearts.
—Karese Noanni, 10
th Legion Commander
