Golden Feather/Crows Tree
Crows Tree
The Crow's Tree, a place where the path of the guides in the Order of the Golden Feather starts. Those who walk this path are the guides to the shards of the Golden Dragon that are released after we die. They guide these shards back to the Golden Dragon. So most time they can be found close to large battles, riding along the armies of believers. They also can be found around places of disaster, places where death stalks the land.
The members of this path also are the only ones allowed to perform the ritual of death. They burn the body on a stack of wood, and ask the Beacon of Hope to guide the shard of the one passed away back to the Golden Dragon. Because of their connection with death many beliefers don't feel comfortable to be close to members of this path. It is as if a sense of fear surounds them.
Besides being the Guides of those who have died, these members of this path also are the bringers of death. They cleanse the Order from within. They bring justice to those who have lost there sight on the Golden Dragon. From the shadows they strike firm, there blades guided by the Duellist himself. Sometimes they even strike at evil unbelievers, to bring the wrath of the Bloodeagle to those who oppose the Golden Dragon.
The members of this path are under the leading hand of the Blood Feather.
