Regular people (Onceborns) cannot see, hear, touch, or interact with the Shadowborn in any way (at least not when the Shadowborn aren’t fully corporeal). The Sight is what allows the Order to see Shadowborn. Their mission is to hunt and kill the Shadowborn. The Order has been around since the 6th century, since the time of Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. It’s probably best to acquaint yourself with a basic understanding of Arthurian Myth before reading this book, as this book is a modern retelling of that story. If you aren’t familiar with the likes of Lancelot, Excalibur, Merlin, Camelot, Morgana, and the like. The Order is short for the Order of the Round Table, from the tale of The Legend of Arthur. The last Camlann took place during the American Revolutionary War, and contributed to it’s scope. When Arthur is Awakened, then Camlann has come, and there is an epic battle against the Shadowborn on the horizon. The more danger there is, the more knights are Called, and the closer they are to Camlann. When the Shadowborn grow restless and powerful every few centuries, the Legendborn are made aware through the Awakening of their knights. Magic or aether, is also known as “Root” to Rootcrafters.Ĭamlann is a massive reckoning. Aether is what the Legendborn call magic, but different practitioners of magic call it different things.
