Ikarys is the Keeper of Record in the Academia Apocrypha.
He takes pride in his work, gathering knowledge and lore while inviting scholars and learned people from all over the world to his library and center for study. In his world, he is in command. But his world is consumed by the politics of the city he lives in, Glentharis, and the gods the city holds dear. At one time, Ikarys too followed the guidance of the gods. Jaded and scorned by the divinities he once devoted himself to, Ikarys seeks knowledge from other, less savory entities. On the morning of the Anointing Ritual, an ancient tradition, Ikarys is visited in his dreams by an unnamed figure that warns of devastation should Ikarys continue down the path he's on. After Ikarys dismisses the messenger, he discovers his library was ransacked in the night. The first of many oddities. As the ritual unfolds and secrets come to light, Ikarys finds himself receiving everything he ever asked for, and so much more. Contains mature content. A complete list of content warnings can be found on the author's website.
