Meeting the Umbrals Court (death of order 1/2)
The Maggot Host had won a great victory against the recently deceased god of hope. Their artifacts were looted and desecrated, their priests slain, and their name wiped from their sacred slates of history. It was a glorious day for the Plague father.
Now it became Gött's turn to seek out a divinity for the maggot host to fall upon. One of order as the ascension would be more perfect when the slain gods were those opposite to Nurgle. At least that was the idea. There were multiple gods representing multiple orders in the world. The problem was that Gods of order tended to be much better at defending their realms. Winning wouldn't matter if the maggot host was reduced to nothing in the process. So they had to choose carefully.
They consulted with various sorcerers and chaos soothsayers, raided ancient libraries, and consulted with demons even outside of the forces of chaos. It took many favors and many sacrifices but Gôtt eventually found her lead.
"Servants of the Plague Father."
Gött would speak at the next great meeting. The leaders of the various infector cohorts sat next to each other alongside Tamurkhan, Gött's soon to be ascended master. He only needed two more gods to slay and he would be supreme.
"I have called you here today to announce our next best target. And how we may get to them. Our target is the god Anui. A god of order that, hilariously enough fell to the taint of tzeetch. They have created a labyrinthine palace that has long since engulfed their entire realm in the void."
The void. An annoying place but certainly navigatable. With the right help.
"And I have found two great weaknesses. FIRST! their realm has been at war with other void powers for the last ten years. Everyone from the Bismuth to the Void flotilla hates them and is actively at war with them. This means their army will be distracted. SECOND! I found a group of beings that can get us right into the city without notice. A group of friends from hell."
Gött would conjure the image of a strange insect.
"The Umbrals. Fiends from the void. They know the secret paths thar can let us into the city of Anui."
Gött would explain.
"They have agreed to meet with us to discuss an agreement. They have a hatred for the gods and a lust for their followers souls."
"The meeting will be soon. Before then I will answer any questions that you may have based on what I have managed to obtain about both the umbrals and this fallen god of order."
