Cardinal Lords?

Evisceros · 03-23-2011, 07:36 PM

So...in the Ascent, after killing the Witch Doctor, you come across two Rime horsemen bearing the titles Western Lord and Southern Lord. In Fens of Nathsar, there is a Northern Lord.

My question is, where is the Western Lord and what are they Lords of? Is there any lore behind these guys?

Doubt it. There's very little about the Rime itself, much less it's ranks.

There are two lords in Ascent:Dustan the Southern LordRahjondo the Eastern LordThere are two in Kunzar Jungle:Kyena the Eastern LordZelgad the Western LordAnd one in Fens:Kaluhm the Northern LordAnd then there are non-cardinal lords in Storm GorgeLord AusterLord FavoniusLord AquilonLord Vulturnus

Don't think that helps any. There really isn't a ton of lore about the Order of Rime, even now that we're at their "home".

Edit: So it turns out that the four lords who show up in Storm Gorge take the names of the Roman wind gods. Auster, god of the cloudy south wind. Favonius, god of the favorable west wind. Aquilon, god of the cold, north wind. Vulturnus, god of the warm east wind.

Not sure if that is meant to give us any more insight into the Rime, or just cool names that were decided upon. Interesting that "Storm Gorge" has us fighting the wind gods. There are also an abundance of flurryburst casters.

I don't think we're there just yet... it still seems like just another side base, even though they're keeping a dragon in spire.
