The Unsent

Humans are the only race who have not had a Divine Avatar sent to them (if you do not count the dragons). Yet optimism runs fiercely through our race, and many believe one is imminent, if not already amongst us in secret, because this seems to be the age of men. A religion has emerged which claims to foretell the Coming King, who is also called the Unsent since he or she has not yet been sent from the One God.

The Coming King will only be sent, it is believed, to the city that proves itself worthy. The nature of that worth is debated, but the priests teach it is related to strength of arms, influence, and wealth. Once that worth is proven, the Unsent will be on Myrnia, leading humans to a new golden age the way Yang-Hui led the elves to found their Sylvan Empire.
