Then, urgent news filters into the hills—the true reason for the Regence’s retreat. Marqala is facing a massive threat: 
ㄒ卄乇 ㄩ几山ㄖᐯ乇几!!!

ƭɦε µɳωσѵεɳ is A vast nomadic force calling itself The Unwoven has emerged from the far salt plains, composed of outcasts, failed tuners, and those whose resonance with Lum was severed long ago. They move like a broken chorus—discordant but powerful—and they are unraveling every Lum-linked infrastructure they find. Towns touched by them fall silent: no light, no memory, no trace.

Origin: A side effect of early Regence experiments—when they tried to forcibly bond unfit candidates to Lum. These failed fusions caused fractures in memory, identity, and eventually reality itself. The survivors now return, no longer human in the old sense, to sever what once severed them.

Danger: They do not conquer; they erase. And they are not stopping.
In response, the Regence has diverted all resources, preparing desperately for an imminent attack.

more threat options i find intriguing but i’m sticking with, THE UNWOVEN 

The Living Archive

Description: A massive subterranean entity known as the Living Archive has awakened beneath Marqala. It is an ancient Resonant repository, half-intelligence, half-ecosystem, that absorbs and rewrites memory itself. The Regence had long buried its existence—now it’s rewriting the history of the land, reshaping minds and allegiances.

Origin: A failed Regence experiment to create a central, immortal custodian of all Lum-linked knowledge. But memory, once given form, evolved its own will.

Danger: Anyone who enters its influence begins to forget what side they were on—and sometimes who they are. The Archive does not destroy; it subsumes.

The Tide of Ferren

Description: An oceanic force of bio-luminescent beings—sentient colonies called Ferren—has begun pushing inland. These aren’t invaders in the traditional sense; they offer peace, healing, and a way of life beyond Lum—beyond memory. Entire coastal towns have accepted their song and surrendered their autonomy willingly.

Origin: Some say the Ferren were first-born of Lum before humanity twisted it into tools. Others say they’re from beyond the Veil.

Danger: They don’t fight. They convert. And those converted say they never knew such clarity. That they chose to forget.
