Transcendence Volume 1

Side Chapter: Loading Part 3.1

As Saint Axton, he would inherit the powers of the Seraph Leliel and through him wielded the power of Goetics and Dusk for the benefit of the world. And he would continue to do so until he would later guide a race of Elken into the lands of Noxamir. Becoming the Patron Saint of not just the Dark but also the Myrken. Through his guidance, the Myrken turned that blasted and miasma riddled lands of Noxamir into what it is today.

As Goetic Emperor Axton however, he was known as the embodiment of all the World's Evil. Sacking and defiling cities, especially those belonging to his now-former spouse and the reason for his fall, Saint Strea Dawnguard. Through him the Seas of Saint Vivianne Tiderunner are now plagued with Sea Monsters, through him he had turned the once kind and gentle Saint Asura Landforger into [The Blight Broodmother] and reintroduced Blight into the World, through him he had turned Saint Yuuki Frostbearer, who grieved the loss of the First Settlers of Shivangard and made him the [Lich King of Shivangard] and the father of the Undead.

His followers, despite everything, are devoted to him to the point where they consider demonic possession and damnation into the Abyss as a form of enlightenment for them. As a result, many of them openly fight and harass followers of Saint Strea.

There are currently three known classes that are heavily associated with the Duskwarden, each one unique and powerful in its own way. These three classes are the [Subjugator], [Hierophant], and the [Blackguard].

Subjugators are known as the Blades of Axton as they fight the enemies of the Duskwarden. Or anything that is viewed as a threat to their doctrine or his followers, these vaunted Killers are sent to threats within the sect.

Hierophants on the other hand known as Bearers of the Word, travel across the world spreading the glorious beliefs and promises that the worship of Axton Duskwarden can provide.

And finally, Blackguards, they are currently the apex of what a follower of the Duskwarden can achieve. They are best described as the closest thing to an avatar for the Duskwarden. To this day, only one man has reached the rank of Blackguard.

[Saint Strea Dawnguard]

[The Saint of Dawn]

[The Seraphic Queen]

[The First Queen of Luxenheim]

"You are not alone, no matter where you are and what you do, the Light shall always guide you. It is your comforting grace into a dangerous road, it is your source of hope and inspiration.

For as long as there is light, then there is hope for all."

-Strea Dawnguard, Codex Divina

Honored as the Patron of the Lyrken. Strea is loved by all regardless of race, long before the events of the Twilight of Heavensgard she served as her husband, Saint Axton's advisor alongside his close friend Saint Indoril Pyreburner. But after the outbreak of the [Twilight of Heavensgard] she had been forced to take up the mantle of leadership to the remaining Saints that did not side with Fallen Saint Axton. While the true events of the [Twilight of Heavensgard] elude many scholars to this day, what happened afterward was that she and the rest of the Saints scattered across Zerundus.

As she stayed in Luxenheim, guiding the Elken that would later be known as the Lyrken in secret. Not wanting to directly interfere with their lives unlike before, many debated on if it was out of pragmatism or perhaps something that had happened during the Twilight. Regardless of which, she and the remaining Seraphs remained in hiding until any records of her finally vanished. To this day many wonder what had truly happened to her.

As a result of her aloofness and distant treatment to the Lyrken, many are rather reluctant to worshiping her. Either out of anger at the belief that she stopped caring and helping them directly or belief that they are not worthy of being her followers, regardless they still followed her words and teachings prior to the Twilight as before. Albeit with reluctance.

There are currently three known classes that are heavily associated with the Dawnguard, like the other Saint associated Classes each one unique and powerful in its own way. These three classes are the [Conservators], [Consulars], and the [Paladin].

Conservators are known as the Protectors of the Word in contrast to the Vaunted Killers known as the Subjugators. The Conservators are akin to Knights in Shining Armor, going out of their way to instill hope and justice to those away from her light.

Consulars on the other hand known as Peacekeepers, often aiding and assisting the followers of the Dawnguard by helping those who need her guidance, often through pacifist methods with violence as a last resort.

And finally, Paladins, much like the Blackguard they too are currently the apex of what a follower of the Dawnguard can achieve. And just like their Duskwarden counterparts, they are best described as the closest thing of an avatar for the Dawnguard. To this day, only one woman has reached the rank of Paladin.
