==== The Gila Viska ==== The Gila Viska is the site of [[Vorov]]βs ascension and the burial ground of heroes. Great leaders throughout pre-Kovorovian and Kovorovian history are buried in these ever-waking fields. At night, the ghosts of the heroes walk and dance. Most never talk to travelers. Even when some try to, the language could be forgotten. Yet, the ghosts seem happy. Hundreds of years ago, a cleric attempted to free their souls from Gila Viska but the ghosts resisted. There is much that is not understood about the field of heroes, but one thing for certain is that those who lie there wish to stay. Apparently, for all of time and beyond. Well, this is actually not true. One day a year, during the autumnal equinox, at sundown, the ghosts of all the great heroes leave Gila Viska. They soar away to an unknown place. People have tried to follow before but report the spirits simply vanish. The next morning at sunrise they return. Most appear badly beaten or injured, but the mood is jolly. It is unknown what happens this night. The ghosts of Gila Viska never discuss it. Even magic cannot compel them to (the one time it was tried. The necromancer promptly had their testicles chopped off, was tortured for 73 years, and then was feed to an angry hydra). Members of the Oric Divisky in the past century have also noted that Vorov is never seen on the night of the equinox as well. Due to him having died in the Gila Viska, they wondered if he knew. [[Vorov]] would not speak of it. When the members of the Order of Ascension were asked the question, they killed the member of the Oric Divisky who asked and left.
