The Monasteries



The Monasteries also write a version of History that they sell as true, but is actually lies spun by the Fallen to deceive the masses. That is why Jerrell was so disgusted when he touched Vera, because what he had been told all his life was a Lie and he had been filled with the Truth. That is why he stole it, so he could translate it and destroy the Church and bring the Truth back to the people.

Brief History
Historical information

Purpose
These mosastaries were employed (Possibly founded) by The Old Ones to grow their offspring, The Young Ones.

They also write and illustrate versions of History used by The Church as Doctrine. These books of "Holy writ" are dictated by The Fallen to the monks.

The Three Monastaries
There are only three Monasteries (as part of the Church) that are allowed and know how to grow them. There is political tension between the monasteries.

Different soils and different ‘magics’(herbs, chemicals, chants, scientific processes [think alligator eggs]) are used to grow certain types of Fallen grown offspring.

- Warrior/guard class

- Intelectual/political class

- "Worker" class.

They are all taught by the monks and special Fallen teachers at the monasteries after being hatched.

The monasteries fight over whose land and ‘produce’ is better.

(Warriors say they are the strongest and only defenders; Intellectuals say the whole system (church, government, control) couldn’t work without their brilliant minds; Working class say they support everything and make everything run smoothly and without them, everything would crumble)

Role in Story
- Someone tries to modify the seeds without the blessings of the Church. Big no-no.

Things to Decide
Were they founded by The Old Ones or were they a previously exisiting organization?

What are the names of the three monastaries? Individually and as a whole?

They each have animals associated with them, what are they? And as a whole.

Who is the leader fo each monastary? Is there a leader for all three together?
