Orcs
When the Old Gods fell and the new gods rose, the Orcish nation on Athien—known as the Ash Empire—was already locked in a brutal civil war. For nearly a century, two visions of the future vied for the soul of the greatest empire the world had ever seen. Orcs were not just the most numerous of the Tribes; they were the most powerful, their cities vast and sophisticated, their temples older and more advanced than any other. But as divine power shifted, a fracture split their society in two.
