Lore Weekend: On the Account of J'urkle part 1

During a time of great war, when the idea of banding together as a nation was not even considered, there was a ragtag group of individuals whose sole purpose was to establish an all-powerful ruler who was strong enough to control all and eliminate any opposing party. They initially present themselves as a benevolent group, but after what they dubbed as the "Elder's Trial," causality appears to have occurred around them. While their intent of making an individual leader was not bad in the sense of that time, the act they committed for the cause could only be described as "heinous."

This ragtag group of individual who was nameless for while, gained a reputation over time and was eventually given a name by those who opposed them. It was said this group or rather Order of J'urkle invented the very first concept of a nation, the very first concept of banding together as one large organization that.

The Order of J'urkle during 583 WE did not have the concept of a leader within their organization, but J'urkle, the name that was plastered on the group name, was unanimously treated as such. It was said even though he was not born of loyalty, his charisma and talent alone would put anyone to shame.

However, unlike what the current media portrays, J'urkle himself was actually a kind man who sought peaceful solutions to any problem he could find, his grandson or rather J'urkle II was the one who misinterpret the group intention and lead them into the bloody organization that we know today.

According to most historian research, the number of recorded deaths caused during J'urkle's reign was only ten persons, though some accounts stated it was fifteen. Regardless of that, if you ever read The History of Warfare by Hydra Solusios, then you should know that amount was impossible.

Even the fairy ruler, Emperor Crysantum (100–201 WE), who was known as the most benevolent ruler in history, had a kill count of about 50–70 people. "I've tried everything I could, but sometimes God gives us a trial that we can't handle.Even now in my sleep, their face and name still haunt me to this very day." That was the famous quote of Emperor Crysantum that later on was carved onto the sacred tree. I've been out of topic but my point is it's hard to believe how a ragtag group that J'urkle formed could perform such a miraculous feat that even the fairy ruler could not even dream of.

Because of his insane feat, some conspiracy theorists believe that J'urkle never existed and that he was a propaganda tool created by the later Order of J'urkle leader to increase sympathy for their cause. A linguist even finds a similarity between J'urkle tales and those of Emperor Crysantum suspecting Emperor Crysantum tales was used as a template for J'urkle story.

The truth was slippery and vague if we were talking about someone from more than a hundred years ago. Most historical accounts had the potential to be elaborate hoaxes if they did not come from a verifiable educated person. I mentioned J'urkle and the various interpretations of his story because what happen in later history might have different interpretation depending if you imagined J'urkle as the righteous man or as ruler with bloody hand.
