Enmity between Helca and the Unholy Trio
Posted on June 1, 2026
Hidden Knowledge > Spiritus Helca, once it saw the terrible revenge that the trio sought to unleash, could not allow it to happen to other undefended worlds and so bound them to itself using Lunaelines from The Interloper to each Unholy Trio member.
The fact of the Enmity between Helca and the Unholy Trio, while not part of any official Records of the Unholy Trio, is recorded in places of ultimate darkness for their followers. It is the intent of the dark gods to cause as much harm as possible to the planet itself because of this, and may provide for hidden motivations and activities without those participating knowing why.

The Celestine doctrine of Knowledge & Action
Posted on May 29, 2026
The Celestine doctrine of Knowledge & Action is a simple but core element of the few shared sacred ‘texts’ of the Celestine faith. It is part of the official texts of the Records of the Celestials of Helca.
Actions are sacred. The past is behind us, and our actions carry us beyond it. Beyond the mistakes, past the pain, towards progress and our ultimate destination. The accumulation of knowledge and experience and the self awareness of these and how they shape us is the most sacred aspect of every sentient entity’s journey to power and quality. Holy ground is made mostly for defense, and is small. Independent concerted action is promoted over group-think dogmatism and tradition.
Because of the Celestine doctrine of Knowledge & Action, most celestials have only small sacred ground, building few large scale edifices of faith for worship. Instead, places which promote their ideas, concepts, and values are made sacred – a much more practical approach that integrates goods and practices rather than scripture or myth. This lack of faith-only edifices removes a major focus of large conflict.
