In the year 1009, the departure of the [guardians of knowledge](/wiki/bicolline/religions/guardians-of-knowledge/) left people seeking answers. Religious preachers seize the opportunity to convert followers, leading to chaotic conflicts among seven religions. [The Circle](/wiki/bicolline/religions/the-circle/) and [Teratos](/wiki/bicolline/religions/teratos/) gain the most advantage in these clashes, with no respite from the recurring calamities affecting the world.  Fears of the end of an era prompt a futile exodus, and amidst the chaos, voices from various belief systems emerge, claiming to guide people through turbulent times. However, a total war between different faiths looms as they blame each other for the calamities.  Leaders of major religions mobilize their followers for an impending battle. The [Holy See](/wiki/bicolline/religions/true-faith/) rallies the faithful, Teratos prepares in [Syrn](/wiki/bicolline/places/city-of-syrn/), Iliaca's priestesses call believers, and the Circle religion directs followers to [Toirac](/wiki/bicolline/regions/ozame/toirac/). Solara's and [Gorghor Baey](/wiki/bicolline/people/gorghor-bey/)'s followers are also warned to prepare for the worst.  Amidst this turmoil, a lone pilgrim preaches that only one belief among the seven will prevail, and the chosen one will receive the powers of the Great Book.  In Loren's tournament qualifiers, armies representing different beliefs gather for the Great Battle. The [Sun God Gorghor Baey](/wiki/bicolline/religions/cult-of-gorghor-bey/), self-sufficient, remains above the conflict. A coalition forms against the true faith, which denies the existence of other gods. In the third chapter, Gorghor Baey gives a staff of power to Teratos. Ultimately, Gorghor Baey's forces achieve 11 objectives with 30 men, while the true faith achieves 14 with 450 men.  The main objective of the Great Battle is to gather [Tablets of Knowledge](/wiki/bicolline/artifacts/tablets-of-knowledge/), revealing Bicolline's history and future clues. A coalition of right-thinking people aims to share knowledge, but conscientious objectors, including Gorghor Baey's men, thwart their plans. [Gorghor's horde](/wiki/bicolline/organizations/horde-of-gorghor-bey/) acquires the crucial Tablet of the Unspeakable, and Mage Glahul deciphers its content.  The Great Battle also witnesses the incarnation of the Sun God Gorghor Baey, marking his first appearance since Transubstantiation. However, this event remains private and fails to convince his detractors.

Through all the commotion, a lone pilgrim appeared. He preaches to anyone who will listen that only one, among the seven beliefs, will find the way, rise and grow. The chosen one will then benefit from all his help and the powers of the Great Book will be granted to her.Loren's tournament qualifiers

The armies gathered for the Great Battle oppose each other in a conflict of religions. Omnipotent and self-sufficient, the Sun God Gorghor Baey knows he is above these considerations. A series of three chapters allows each of the gods to shine. The arrogance of the true faith, which denies the existence of any other god, provokes a coalition of other religions to eliminate this paranoid sect. During the third chapter, Gorghor Baey, in possession of a staff of power, chooses to give it to Teratos, a gesture which is probably not unrelated to the latter's contribution in Transubstantiation. In total, the 30 men r-epresenting Gorghor Baey achieved 11 objectives, while the true faith, with 450 men, achieved 14\. Which allows us to say that a Ghorean is worth 10 real times.

The objective of the Great Battle seems both capital and trivial: it is a question of gathering Tablets of Knowledge, which will allow us to know the History of Bicolline and give clues about its future. The men of arms are not very passionate about the subject and allow themselves to be brought together by the men of the pen into a large coalition of right-thinking people wanting to unite to share knowledge.

Fortunately, a few conscientious objectors, including Gorghor Baey's men, decide to prevent this farandole. Gorghor's horde gets their hands on the Tablet of the Unspeakable, the most important of all. The talents of Mage Glahul make it possible to decipher its content, which to do well, does not share this knowledge.

The battle is also the occasion of an incarnation of the Sun God Gorghor Baey, a first presence since Transubstantiation to replace the Sun. This appearance, however, is private and will not convince his detractors...for the moment.
