prepping a Zarash’ak session. I’m baffled, if the Toorn Clan has ties to the cults of the dragon below (worship Daelkyr) and the Aashta Clan has ties to the Gatekeepers (oppose daelkyr) HOW do these clans coexist in the tharashk Triumvirate? why no civil war? Because the Daelkyr were bound thousands of years ago, and to most people they are myths. Most Ashta aren’t actively trying to break seals; they just offer their prayers to the Lord of Eyes or the Prince of Slime, or pray for passage to the Vale of the Inner Sun. Meanwhile…

… Toorm and those who follow Gatekeeper traditions are largely just performing prayers and rituals that can be traced back to the Gatekeepers, not actively patrolling the woods and hunting aberrations. FULL Gatekeeper druids and actual cultists of the Dragon Below are the extremes of this spectrum. Most people lean one way or the other, and most think those who don’t share their beliefs are idiots, but that doesn’t mean they can’t coexist. Much like our world!
