TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE



There have been a lot of riftfarers arriving lately. It seems like there have been more arriving than usual. So many different kinds of people from different kinds of worlds with stories to tell and experiences to give.

A little game has appeared on the shellphone network in hopes of getting to know just a little more about these otherworlders. You might find it on your shellphone as you’re scrolling through one day.

Tell the world two truths and one lie about yourself. And let others try and decipher which of the three is your lie. If they can guess right, perhaps you’ve been able to make a new acquaintance. Or in the least learn more about someone from another walk of life.

Is yours the only nation on your star?

We are a singular people. We do not all live in one place, but despite differences in the ways we do some things, we do not split ourselves into rivaling nations.

It isn't a matter of splitting, but a matter of being unable to come together completely. Since earliest memory, we have existed separate, as various clans across the face of Valisthea. These clans may have changed names, some been absorbed into others, but we are too...disseparate for complete cohesion; belief a chief cause for this segregation. My people recognize Greagor as the one true goddess and recognize our Emperor, through the clergy's guidance, as her servant. The Iron Kingdom worships the crystals themselves, and is quite violent to opposition to this belief. The Dhalmekian Republic, in contrast, is ruled by something akin to your Convocation, but theirs is a region of deserts and wastes and thus the wars they wage are over resources rather than faith.
