Grove of Epiphany

The Grove of Epiphany, sometimes referred to as simply the Grove, is one of the major cities found on Amphoreus.^[1]

Overview

Thalesus, the First Scholar, left his home city of Mileutus in search of spiritual meaning within the Mnestia faith. His transformative journey across Amphoreus led him to profound revelations about nature and existence, culminating in an encounter with Cerces. There, he established a courtyard and named it the Grove of Epiphany, a sanctuary for spiritual awakening, philosophical inquiry, and the pursuit of wisdom.

From Thalesus's teachings, diverse schools of thought emerged, eventually forming the seven schools of the Grove of Epiphany which became led by Seven Sages. The Grove became a symbol for collective knowledge, where people from all city-states went to seek wisdom.

Over time, the Grove amassed vast knowledge, turning into Amphoreus' most prestigious academic center; sometimes through legitimate means, and sometimes through questionable actions like intellectual theft and espionage. The scholars revered reason itself, treating questions as sacred offerings. In silence, Cerces bore witness to the ever-growing "noise," a metaphor for the Grove's unending exchange of thought, never interrupting the flow of knowledge that continuously returned to the spirit of the wood.

In the present day, after Nikador's fall, the Grove was rapidly engulfed by the black tide and its corruption, led by the Flame Reaver. Several scholars and Chrysos Heirs died while trying to protect the Coreflame of Reason.

Mydei	About Anaxa  ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ I've heard more than a dozen sins attributed to him, but a certain good student from the Grove loves to talk about how wonderful that scholar is as a teacher... Anyone capable of leaving such an impression on him is likely someone I'd appreciate as well.

  • ἑλκύω helkuo, meaning "to draw, drag, or lead."
