Racial Articles From the Book of Sorrows: A Shar'Vaire Chronicle

So it was the first Voraath rose from the burbling pit of foul-smelling miasma we created ‘life' from. Is this how the Mother and Father created us? Out of unmentionable things, bits of other failed creations all mashed together and fused to live and breath by sorcery, rather than by divine womb and seed as we as children are often told? I wonder as I look at this…brute that now stands before us, obedient, passive and willing to follow our will onto death.

We were so willing to follow the Mother and Father onto death when this world was young and we were blind, so too will these abominations we have sired through magic to do our bidding, without question. I wonder if it shall also come to pass that they will rebel against us, as we rebelled against the Mother and Father?

I have no doubt these Voraath will dig deep for the Boromandite we require to continue our campaign against the Tallis-Shei. Looking at them, they look as though they could tear down a mountain! Perhaps if they prove durable enough, we'll even send them after the Elves rather than risking our own people.

It is unknown if they will ever become more intelligent than to sustain themselves through mating and to mine the deep places for us. There will be much to-do I think if that ever becomes the case.
