Maps

General Information

It is not possible to travel to Ostian before Journey into Madness (Act IV of the main quest line) as crossing the border to the Southrealm is prohibited.

Location

Ostian is located in the southern part of the Southrealm. It is a port city conveniently positioned almost in the heart of the Southrealm.

Political System

Theocracy

People

The common people of Ostian live in constant fear of the Gods and are humiliated by them. The humans' feeling of inferiority is reiterated in proclamations on the Shrines. You can learn a lot about the relation between the gods and their subjects by completing the side quest Pilgrimage.

Symbols

The statue in the center of Ostian is a symbol for the system as a whole. According to Narathzul, it is the symbol of the temple's perverse teaching. By blowing up the symbol, it is possible to overthrow the entire theocratic regime and to release the oppressed people of the Southrealm. You can recognize the statue by the exalted Preacher who is standing in front of it.

History

The Rule of the Gods

A few decades before the time you start the game the Temple erected a theocracy, a dominion of the gods, in the Southrealm. Since that time the country was completely isolated from the remaining parts of Nehrim.

Planting the Seed of Revolution

Nehrim:Narathzul Arantheal wants you to incite the people of the Southrealm to rebel against the Temple in order to prevent a war with the Southrealm when he, Narathzul, dethrones the Light-Born and becomes The Shadow God. According to Narathzul, the people there desire freedom but lack someone or something that would prompt the revolt. Narathzul adds that the people there are fiercely suppressed, beaten and abused.

Revolution!

You will incite the people to revolt against their oppressors by blowing up the statue in the center of Ostian.
