When Avornis falls, the Banished One will reign supreme. Rival kings Lanius and Grus each covet solitary power, but realize that a kingdom divided cannot stand against the evil god who enslaves the minds of men through their nightmares.

But that was centuries earlier, before the Scepter of Mercy was lost, and only through its recovery can Avornis survive.
