The '''Descendants of Thutria''' were an esoteric faction of monastic [[Keilicaela]] concerned primarily with the nature of the [[Veil of Webs|Veil of Webs;]] primarily, how to see beyond it.


The '''Descendants of Thutria''' were a faction of [[Keilicaela]] created and led by [[Cythrek]] during the [[Occupation of Namine]] in a bid to free the species and [[Namine]] from the rule of the [[Currai Imperium]]. Though the faction, in collaboration with the [[Ashderian Regime|Enlightened Ones]], played a vital role in freeing Namine from the Imperium, the effectiveness of the faction in actually destroying the Imperium (an act the Enlightened Ones were mostly responsible for) is to be disputed, given their lack of manpower and space travel. The Descendants, despite their questionable role in the destruction of the Imperium, are given much credit by modern Keilicaela for Namine's freedom--to the point where Cythrek is nigh-deified.

The Descendants of Thutria were an esoteric faction of monastic Keilicaela concerned primarily with the nature of the Veil of Webs; primarily, how to see beyond it.

History

Formation

The Descendants of Thutria were founded in 40 PRE by their Grandmaster Cythrek, an occult shaman who hailed from a Sharazdi-sar tribe. Cythrek left behind tribal life in the Great Sharazdi Desert in order to see how the "astray children" of the Empire of Namine lived and sway them to the Keilicaela's first spiritual practice, long ago rejected and mostly forgotten by the Empire: the Cult of Namine. He traveled to Thutria, where he spent a few years cultivating a following and learning of technology and practices unavailable to his people, such as Veil manipulation. After learning that the Veil of Webs existed, Cythrek experienced what he called a divine revelation: he proclaimed that his ancestors told him he must learn to see beyond the Veil, which would supposedly reveal the divine remains of the Matron Namine--the few parts of her body that, according to Sharazdi-sar tradition, were not used to create the planet Namine and all life on it.

Progression

Cythrek and his followers, now calling themselves the Descendants of Thutria, were branded heretics by the Imperial Cult for espousing beliefs that ran contrary to Imperial Cult dogma, including denying the divinity of Ferkanid Trinalak. They fled Thutria to escape persecution, secluding themselves in an abandoned pre-Imperial observatory that would serve as their monastery. In their efforts to study the Veil, the Descendants were the first Keilicaela to pioneer the art of true sight, rendering them highly-resistant to Veil manipulation. After over 100 years of discipline, Cythrek was said to be entirely immune to Veil illusions. The Descendants claimed the Compendium Singularia at an unknown time after inhabiting their monastery; it is unknown how they obtained the tome.

Dissolution and Aftermath

The Descandants disbanded after Cythrek committed suicide following his attempt to read the Compendium Singularia in 197 PRE. Cythrek's remaining followers read his final work and left the monastery in despair, leaving behind the books they had written on true sight. The Compendium itself would be lost for almost 800 years following this, resurfacing a few decades after 940 PRE. In the decades following 940 PRE, the Compendium wound up in the hands of the Ban-José Corporation. All that remains of the Descendants of Thutria is the library of texts they drafted regarding true sight; among the texts is a volume of work Cythrek wrote during his suicide. While the collection of books regarding true sight became instrumental for Imperial Veil researchers and scholars, Cythrek's death-volume is kept under lock and key in an Imperial Cult archive.
