Vermillion Bird
“I often prayed to this Divine. To see it like this… I pray now only for its destruction.” —Dragomir
The Vermilion Bird guards the South and is a creature of Summer’s heat and fire. While it can bring death in the form of scorching droughts, it most often nurtures and builds on the life borne from Spring. Its absence leeches yet more heat from the world, deepening the frozen wasteland that the Empire has become. Destroying this avatar will bring a gift of Speed from the cleansed Primordial.
