# World State: ch-01
|
||
|
||
## NPC Memory
|
||
- High Priestess Malcorra (The Crimson Cathedral): HOSTILE -- She sent a silent warning through the blood-link during the parley -- Seraphine is being watched for any sign of "heretical" weakness.
|
||
|
||
## Faction Attitudes
|
||
- The Crimson Monarchy (Lowen-Court): Pragmatic but Bitter -- They view the Valerius line as brittle, yet necessary for the Bilateral Seal's strength.
|
||
- The Crimson Throne (Aethelgard): Xenophobic and Terrified -- They see any deal with Aldric as a surrender of their pure blood-right.
|
||
|
||
## Active World Events
|
||
- The Great Blight: Advancing rapidly through the Aethelgard frontier; village of Oakhaven confirmed lost in ch-01.
|
||
- The Sanguine Parley: Formal proposal of the Bilateral Seal initiated; 48-hour deadline for a response established. |
