Servants of Egress
A Final Knights order operating east of the Roar, the Servants of Egress venerate suffering as an act of defiance against vengeful gods. They are trained in torture and psychological horrors, seeking out settlements to inflict what they call "enlightenment."
Their philosophy holds that the gods, if they exist, created this world as a hell. By embracing agony rather than begging for mercy, survivors prove they can rule in the hell they have been given. The Servants defile every religious site they find, shatter monuments, and burn sacred texts. They do not kill their victims. Killing ends suffering. They want you to survive and remember.

Structure
A sub-order of the Final Knights, the Servants of Egress operate east of the Roar. Their organizational structure mirrors that of the broader Final Knights hierarchy, specialized for the infliction of suffering and the systematic destruction of religious institutions.
Culture
Enlightenment Through Suffering
The Servants do not view their work as cruelty. They see it as education. By showing survivors the full depths of suffering a human body and mind can endure, they claim to prove that humanity is stronger than the gods who sought to destroy it. Each act of torture is a lesson in human resilience.
Desecration
Every religious site the Servants encounter is defiled. Every monument is shattered. Every sacred text is burned. Worship, in their view, is submission to the forces that destroyed the old world. They destroy the symbols of faith to free survivors from the delusion of divine mercy.
History
The Servants of Egress formed as a splinter within the Final Knights, dedicated to a specific interpretation of the world's cruelty. Where other Final Knights orders may seek conquest or destruction, the Servants focus on demonstrating through pain that humanity can master a world the gods abandoned to horror.
