The Architect of the Calamity
The catastrophic events known as the Tragedy of Duscur were not a spontaneous occurrence but a meticulously planned scheme. The true architect behind this devastating incident was Volkhard. He was a key figure who had been secretly replaced and controlled by Those Who Slither In The Dark, a shadowy organization known for its manipulative and destructive plots within Fódlan.
- Volkhard's Role: As the orchestrator, Volkhard was responsible for planning and executing the entire tragedy, serving as a pawn for Those Who Slither In The Dark.
- Those Who Slither In The Dark: This covert group infiltrated and manipulated individuals like Volkhard to achieve their objectives, which often involved sowing chaos and discord to undermine established powers. Their involvement transformed the event from a simple conflict into a complex act of sabotage designed to achieve broader political ends.
It is also notable that Volkhard is the brother of Patricia. While Patricia herself was not responsible for causing the tragedy, her familial connection to Volkhard highlights the intricate web of relationships and manipulations surrounding the event.
