Centuries pass, your consciousness wanes in and out, cities bloom, "worth it" you tell yourself, but your heart aches and pulls inward. Someone or something has dispelled the only wall between them and oblivion. You blackout. You awake in a forest, semitransparent blue wings now grace your back.

These "new" deities latched on to words that held power. During the Cataclysm and Æther's Slumber many were embalmed in the bunkers for lack of space to bury the dead. Thus The Embalmer became deified.

As time passed, magic slowly returned to Prana, and with it "new" deities. The Cataclysm also brought anachronistic little quirks to the continent: a Spruce Goose style airplane, a tower that is actually a buried castle from a Arthurian universe where only raptors are sentient, a zombie bunker, etc.

The path of resistance aims to unravel all nested layers and return to a singular reality.

None are wrong, none are right, all have consequence

The world is an ever growing cycle of rebirth. (Warlock)

The world is an ever shrinking cycle of decay. (Cleric)

The world is a nesting doll of worlds that came before and seeks to become whole. (Resist)

Clerics begin to see cracks in the world, but interacting seems to heal them, while fantasy accurate events may benefit the party.

Those who resist begin to see the world lose color. If they interact with the cracks of the world which they cannot see, they begin to perceive the true world.

You do not have to reveal your choice, nor do you need to hide any abilities you gain. The world shifts in your perspective based on your choice.

Warlocks begin to see the cracks in the world, if they interact, they spread but anachronistic events may benefit the party.
