Axios of Balance
The order of monks who believe in the balance of Synapsid. The dragon king whose scales shimmer—half black, half white, ever-shifting with the tides of Order and Chaos across Galfin. More peaceful than the Petitioners of Synapsid, monks and seers tend altars where obsidian and ivory meet, their candle flames dancing in black and white spirals, reflecting the current state of the realm’s equilibrium. When the flame leans dark, it signals creeping law; when pale, it warns of spiraling anarchy.
They transcribe every shift, whisper predictions, and send word to their militant kin—the Petitioners—when balance tips too far. While the Petitioners bear steel and conviction, the Axios wield parchment and patience, faithful that Synapsid’s will can only be read in stillness. Their sigil, a swirling flame of black and white, marks hidden shrines and stone tablets buried in the folds of the world.
