The Festival of Christophorus - Presentation Day

Excerpt from Esoteric Pilgrimage Destinations of the Gothic Sector, Volume 7, by Adept Matthias Laetorius.


"The fifth day of Christophorus is Presentation Day. The major cities of Ophatran Secundus are divided into many precincts. Nearly all precincts (other than zones administered by the Holy Adeptus) are assigned to a noble family that ensures the productivity and spiritual well being of the citizens."

 
"On this day, the people of the district give the precinct’s nobility a package wrapped in decorative paper. Almost without exception, these presents contain letters wishing the Emperor’s benevolence on the family. Three generations ago, one package held an explosive device, which entirely eradicated the notorious Von Pazzi family. Consequently, that precinct was razed, its citizens dispersed, and is now the Square of Penitence. It has been whispered that the Imperial Governor wanted the Von Pazzi done away with, or perhaps that the Ecclesiarch coveted the area for a new plaza for his penance cages.”

  2. As I said on other installments, it's not just the minis, it's the whole narrative behind. Great work.
