Background:

In the deep canopies of an ancient, many-rooted wildwood, Ikra Shidiqi rules as a serene but terrifying priest-queen. Every creature that steps near her domain feels life pulled from their bones and woven into hers, feeding an ever-growing choir of spirits, soldiers, and beasts. Where her shadow falls, vitality spreads like a living contagion—each squirrel, soldier, and sapling flourishing, multiplying, and swelling with unnatural abundance. Under her command, the forest does not merely grow… it overflows, doubling itself again and again as if nature itself has lost restraint.

Beside her marches Prava of the Steel Legion, whose discipline binds this riot of life into an organized host. Together they form a strange harmony: Prava’s legions swell endlessly under the blessings of Doubling Season, Parallel Lives, and Mondrak, while Ikra siphons power from every living pulse. What begins as a gentle welcome—tiny wards, hopeful healers, and kind-hearted clerics—soon becomes a divine avalanche. The forest blossoms into an army, the army blossoms into a kingdom, and the kingdom blossoms into an unstoppable tide of life and death, where every heartbeat strengthens Ikra’s dominion and every new creature born becomes another step toward a godlike, radiant victory.
