This week’s lore covers the Lazarist Prophets, the Procession of the Sacred Affliction’s most fervent leaders. They welcome even the most wretched sinners into their ranks, guiding them along the path to redemption with the cleansing weight of the millstone. www.trenchcrusade.com/lore/lazaris...
Lazarist Prophets - Trench Crusade
A Lazarist Prophet is as much a leader in pastoral love as they are in war. They are the first kind face, smiling through mucus-laden bandages, to welcome aspirants down the path of redemption.
