The argument that the Sharovic make is so compelling, that even the pragmatists who made the suggestion in the first place acquiesce. The copper of the Bruliscan is to be conserved and protected – not a single tile is to be melted down, let alone the precious tablets found within. In desperate times such as these, principles are more important than ever. Preservation of the past – of the truth – is more important than a few additional hammers and knives.
As a reward for their dedication, the chieftain Slucatal grants the Sharovic a new name. Through their actions since the deluge, they have proven themselves to be so much more than glorified watchmen and bodyguards. They have protected the very essence of the Croglatol from destruction and decay and for that, they are more than mountain men, than the vanity project of Sitrun's envious son. They shall be the <span class="mu-s">Brulicruvic</span>, the <span class="mu-i">guardians of truth</span>.
This reverence of knowledge and the past sweeps through the Ancronic like a plague. Filled with a strange new fervour, many of them begin to read and write for the first time since the flood occurred. Those who have the time and resources to do so immortalise their stories by inscribing them on clay tablets. They write of their loved ones they lost, of all of their trials and of their hopes for the future. Many of these stories and records are even interred in the House of Truth, so that future generations may learn of those who came before them.
Some of the sisterhood are more than a little nervous about this development. This exaltation of history seems almost religious in nature, yet it is completely detached from the worship of An and the sacred cycle of consumption. For now, the priestesses do not act – they keep their concerns to themselves and simply watch for the time being.
With the passage of time, more villages join the fold and the influence of the Ancronic expands to the west and to the north, along the northern bank of the Choslitol and the northwestern shore of the Croglatol. With more bodies comes more food, more infrastructure, more opportunities to do more than just survive. Slowly but surely, civilisation is being born anew.
