Loading Screen: Bough of Rift, Cerces

Cerces is one of the Titans on Amphoreus. Their Coreflame is Reason. In the previous cycle of Amphoreus, they were a demigod of Reason named Calypso.^[6]

Description

They were born of the void, turning nothingness into prosperity. They are the creators of all life and civilization.

The Coreflame of Reason has been returned.

Cerces is the master of wisdom, intellect, and vegetation. They wield authority over ecology, knowledge, and rationality, and people refer to them as the hermit in search of wisdom.

Nature is Cerces's courtyard and also their library. They allow people to study and rest there, and convey their knowledge to the ignorant tirelessly and generously. It is under their guidance that civilization and cities began in Amphoreus.

Cerces graces the world in the form of a grand and holy tree. Where they take root, vegetation spouts to become a massive forest. And here, scholars walk by their side, enlightened in reason and thinking in debate, creating courts in search of new learning. They also gifted a seed to Kephale, allowing it to become the Garden of Wisdom, allowing scholars to seek the Titan's wisdom even if they stand far from the holy tree.

Cerces power infuses every last plant in Amphoreus, from branches and vines to the very leaves themselves. In accordance with the pact they struck with Georios, they mediate life, allowing the green and soil to be in perfect balance. Upon accepting their blessing, the plant life can also gain the rationality to debate humans. This warns people to remain humble, for the truly wise might be the quiet ones around you.
