'Musko Reeve' Series - All Liturgies

“It is often speculated upon why Concordant Knights start their pre-combat prayer for forgiveness of violence with an attempt to propitiate Aesma, by far the most violent, rampant, and willful of the gods. The answer, as I was told by one particularly old angel who held watch over a decaying section of the king’s road, is extremely simple: if anything was horrendous enough to offend Aesma, it was enough to offend all the other multitudes of gods, thus the prayer is started by opening the largest flood gate of them all, so to speak.”

“I once heard a fellow refer to the Trigram Mantra as little better than an ideal set of rules for drinking hard liquor. In many circumstances I’m actually inclined to agree with him.”

-Musko Reeve

“The dread masters of this world meet under two circumstances: to discuss the terms of our enslavement, or absolute apocalypse. There is no good of their coming together. Much like a man will tell a storm is coming by the color of the sky, if you should see their meeting, you had best head for high ground.”

– Musko Reeve

“I heard among my travels whispered rumors – spurious, I am almost certain – that nearly all Ki Rata techniques could be doubled in power and intensity by a particularly skilled master. The idea alone is so ludicrous as to be silly. To start, who among the whole wheel would need to harness the use of that scale of destructive power?”

-Musko Reeve, Manual of Hands and Feet

“It is said Ki Rata has a forty sixth strike. This is reserved only for the apprentice who is able to perform only three or less, and causes instant death.”

-Musko Reeve

“I suppose it’s only natural of mortals to make use of whats given to them. In the case of the Red City, this tends to be the remnants of their progenitors. Nothing like taking the corpse of a god to work, I suppose.”
