About

The Troupe of Fools, is a carnevale-themed troupe based in Rinascita. They perform on tour across all of Rinascita, travelling on the back of Lario, with their hidden refuge being located deep in a vast underground cavern on Penitent's End island. From every corner of the Rinascita Archipelago, playwrights and performers gather, praising the Troupe's art to be like "dancing in chains," defying the weight of conformity with their performance. As the Primus of the Order of the Deep, Fenrico has used the Pilgrim's Sail as a way to banish those he sees as a threat to the Order's goal of achieving unity. Anyone who disobeys or questions the Order and its doctrine are branded 'Fools', and forced to board a ship to Penitent's End, once a sacred spot for pilgrims before being corrupted by the Dark Tide. Although Fools are told they can find redemption and a place beside the Sentinel through this voyage, they are instead subject to the dangers of the Remnant Clouds, a mist that traps Reverberations that turn into Tacet Discord, and the Dragon of Dirge, whom has been altered by the Order with the help of the Fractsidus to attack all living creatures on sight. As a young boy, Brant curiously questioned the appearance of the Sentinel's statue inside the Cathedral of Mercury, and was immediately branded a Fool and sent on the Pilgrim's Sail. While the other Fools on his ship did their best to shield the child from the reality of their fate, he ultimately watched them die one by one. However, they were able to fight against the Tacet Discord and scavenge enough from their shipwreck to build Fool's Elysium, thus beginning the Troupe of Fools. In addition to establishing a refuge for themselves and patrolling the coast of Penitent's End island in search of new survivors, they have dedicated themselves to performing as they await the return of the Carnevale. There, they hope to expose the Order's lies through a grand performance, and claim the Laurel for the chance to commune with the Sentinel. Let me know if I make any mistakes :)
