The Ezomytes are a race/faction in Wraeclast. They originate from Ezomyr, a landmass located to the west of Sarn. They worship The First Ones and other animalistic Ezomyte gods.

Their culture was a primary focus of Talisman league and Bestiary league.

History

The Great Fire

The Great Fire was a cataclysmic event in the history of the Ezomytes.

The Ezomyte's ancestors failed to honour the First Ones for their "gifts".[1] As a consequence, the First Ones caused fires to spill "out of a mountain". As it did so, Fenumus wove a net and carried itself into the sky, floating on the hot winds.[2] The flames swept from "north to south", growing taller, consuming the land.[3] Once the flames had "spread across the land", Saqawal used its wings to bring the fires to a "standstill".[4]

For the Ezomytes, the aftermath was catastrophic. The then leaders had been "turned to ash where they stood"[5], civilization was "erased"[6], and the land was laid barren. Those who survived grew "weak"[7], but were taken "pity" on by "Mother Gull", who gave them "grain and water". However, the grain and water were later found to be tainted, and caused those who consumed it to "[feed] on each other"[8] (i.e. cannibals).

The depiction of fire coming from a mountain has some similarities to events documented relating to the Proto-Vaal and the Cleansing Fire.

The Purity Rebellion

Thane Rigwald led the Ezomytes in the Purity Rebellion against Gaius Sentari and the Eternal Empire.
