Sebuuk

Line 40:

This enraged [[Malis]].

The Sebuuk had promised him a world cleansed of the Sherok, and the deaths of the First-Flames. Yet '''not one''' Flame had fallen. The Sherok, though thinned, still thrived. And so, in the choking silence of [[Gozog’nok]], '''Malis turned on his disciples'''.

For an entire '''era''', he subjected the Sebuuk to unspeakable torment.

Line 46:

* Those who failed in battle were broken—mind, soul, and flame.

* The rebellious were reformed into cursed mockeries, their spirits stretched thin across miles of obsidian chains.

* Some were devoured and remade as Wraith-Spirits, hollow echoes of their former glory.

* Some were devoured and remade as [[Wraith-Spirit|Wraith-Spirits]], hollow echoes of their former glory.

Their '''eon of war had won them nothing… only deeper bondage'''.

Later, [[Malismorai]]—a twisted Sherok Warlord who had defected to Malis’s side—led an effort to '''release the Malisik''' from ~~Gozog’nok~~. Though Malismorai succeeded, he left the Sebuuk behind. Their curse was too potent, their treason too fresh. Only Malis still believed they might someday escape—through brilliance, desperation, or despair.

It was not until the rise of the '''[[Shemèin]]''', flesh~~-crafters~~ and ~~genetic deceivers~~, that a solution emerged. By sacrificing entire [[Malisik]] [[Soul-Cluster|Soul-Clusters]] and stitching them into complex mortal matrices, the [[Shemèin]] created '''[[Mortal Vessel|Mortal Vessels]]''' capable of containing Sebuuk spirits—vessels resistant to the curse’s annihilating light. If the Sebuuk was slain the [[Soul-Cluster]] would be released and the [[Malisik]] spirits would be freed.

These vessels were flawed, unstable, and costly to produce. Only the most '''loyal, elite, or strategically valuable Sebuuk''' were granted them. The rest remained in the dark, awaiting release or consuming one another in madness.
