Hey, so this is just a page to work on a project. Ignore if I haven't sent you here. Thank you~

Background
The Kingdom of the Nascent— a society of people with a faith so strong that it would keep some from seeing the sky for their entire life. Yes, the society was physically located underground, somewhere under the shifting sands of the Arabian desert. The Kingdom of the Nascent was incredibly technologically advanced for their time; they were on the verge of creating firearms before their destruction. This allowed the society to expand to the entire known world at that point. From sub-saharan Africa, to Europe, to China, all were under the discreet influence of the society.

So, what exactly was the society you ask? And why are they relevant? Well, there are two very important facets to the society. One; every person in it, from their induction, are trained in the art of assassination. Two; the society is fanatically religious. They believe that their sleeping god—M'thalur, god of the night, thieves, death, plague, and sorrow— will one day reawaken if they sacrifice enough, specific souls in his name.

The society is organized in circles: • The first circle, and highest, consisting of the High Priest and Prophet only. The High Priest is the political leader, and lays down the laws and directions as told by the Prophet. The Prophet, said to be the only person capable of communicating to M'thalur's messengers, receives instructions and passes them to the High Priest.

• The second circle consists of a working class; skilled artisans, alchemists, blacksmiths, you name it. These people are all retired assassins. Once you reach the age of thirty, you are let free to do as you wish within the society. You cannot leave it, however, as that would be disastrous. Not that anyone has ever thought of leaving anyway.

• The third, and final circle, consists of the active assassins and assassins-in-training. This is where things get interesting: The Prophet receives specific instructions as to who needs to be 'inducted' into the society, who needs to be assassinated, and by whom the target should be assassinated. Basically, the Prophet tells the High Priest what needs to be done, the High Priest organizes it, and the assassins carry it out.

Generally speaking, infants of a specific lineage are chosen. They have no idea what the lineage actually consists of, but they almost always include Greek, among other, gods or goddesses at some point in the line. These infants are then taken back to the main 'city' and trained in the art of assassination. Nothing is questioned within the society. You only do as you're told. Now, whether or not the society is actually correct remains to be seen.
