The Disciples of Avechna, the Avenger are those pilgrims who have devoted themselves to serving the Avenger in His mission of protecting the Nine Seals. When Creation is threatened and the Almighty Kethuru strains against His imprisonment, the Disciples gather wealth and resources from donations far and wide so that they can bestow them and Avechna's blessings upon those who compete in the Trials of Ascension and compete in the Final Trial of Ascension to renew the Seals.
