The steadfast kyrian of Bastion are one of the Covenants in the Shadowlands. Their discipline and duty compels them to safeguard souls from the mortal realm as they pass into the Shadowlands.[1] They are messengers, couriers, and some of the purest souls in the Shadowlands.[2] The Kyrian souls move on to become noble beings such as Spirit Healers, whose true title are Kyrian Watchers. Souls that are sent into Bastion are souls that have gone through harsh burdens in life and seek the Kyrian to regain their virtue.[3]

Description[]

Steadfast guardians who carry the souls of the dead.

Living beings have wished to become something greater than themselves since time immemorial. Souls deemed noble enough can prove themselves in Bastion, land of pristine spires and crystalline skies, where those who surpass their trials earn the honor of ascension to a higher calling beside the Archon, first among the winged kyrians.

The kyrians are eternal beings who draw only the most accomplished, principled, and pure into their ranks. But, as souls plunge into the Maw and upheaval rocks the Shadowlands, scores of aspiring kyrians find that they are unable to continue their journey to ascension. With the number of kyrians dwindling, their charge to ferry souls to eternity is in jeopardy. Will the Archon’s devoted stand together, or will this test of faith sunder their shining kingdom?[4]

The kyrian are steadfast guardians of the afterlife who bear the souls fo the dead into the Shadowlands. Eternally devoted to duty and service, only the worthy may enter their ranks.[5]
