Grand Lotholam: A Gazetteer

History

The Triune Ascendant

At its height Lotholam was ruled by a grand triumvirate of separated but roughly equal powers. Each of the three offices commanded various interdependent offices. For example, the Mardavox controlled the agricultural sector in (almost) its entirety, but the Amnavox held the keys to the Granaries of Autumn. In turn, neither could expect to stockpile food without the approval of the Frygnavox, whose Guild of Pest and Pestilence kept the food supply from rodents and disease.

The goal of this separation of powers was to require the interdependence and cooperation of the Triune. In practice, this was only partially successful. Continuous squabbling and efforts to gain even the tiniest edge on one’s rivals eventually led to the downfall of the city. The Amnavox, in an attempt to force the hand of his opponents, withheld the services of the Masters of Repair and Restoration from the Frygnavox’s Gate of A Thousand Eagles. Unfortunately, the Mardavox had hoped to gain an edge on his rivals by classifying the impending approach of the Battle Thralls of Hurloon the Horrendous. It was only as the city and its many guilds, offices, and departments were torn asunder by pillaging barbarians that the Triune was finally able to agree on something: their mutual flight from the city to the Purple Moon of Ecardu.
