The Last War brought about a new form of Vassal-Seeker syncretism known as the Blood of Dorn. Vassal soldiers would often cut themselves before a challenge or battle as a blood offering to Dol Dorn for strength and victory. The advent of the Blood of Vol as the state religion led many soldiers to mix the two religion’s practices, sprinkled in with some mysticism about “rituals first used by the Mae-Khree warriors of ancient Syrkarn.” Despite the historical illiteracy of these beliefs, they have nevertheless manifested genuine miracles. Simon Vince is the most vocal leader of this group, a khoravar veteran who’s started his own mercenary company that contracts out through House Deneith’s Blademarks Guild.
