Vorstheim is the coldest and most disciplined of the three — a city of perfect symmetry, where every building, corridor, and breath is measured. Its generator burns efficiently, never lavishly.
The people of Vorstheim, known as The Stillborn, are stoic warriors-engineers. They believe emotion led the old world to ruin, and only order can preserve humanity’s flame.
They worship no gods, only the Equation of Continuance — a code of logic that guides every decision, from resource allocation to life and death.
Vorstheim trades machinery and precision tools, but its envoys are feared — silent figures clad in frost-plated armor, who treat treaties as equations, not promises.
Their leader, Architect-General Rhelka, believes that when the other cities fall to chaos, Vorstheim will inherit the world.
