Guidelines for Lore Questions
1) You are limited to one question per topic. You may ask follow-up questions related to your initial question provided they are mainly 'yes' or 'no' questions.  For instances where you are clarifying lore details, or for minor questions, it is recommended to ask in the #lore-questions Discord channel instead of in this thread.
2) Questions should avoid being overly specific when the topic is unknowns. (IE: Was anyone on Sigrogana ever killed with a spoon? Has there ever been a scandal involving a noble family on Kysei?) For this reason, it's best to ask questions pertaining to subjects that already have some establishment in the lore.
3) Avoid asking questions on the basis that you are trying to invalidate someone's RP or otherwise harrass them, etc. If you have concerns that someone may not be RPing properly, or has an outlandish concept, please take them to a GM in private.
4) Refrain from asking questions that have always been answered. Use the forum search function, view the lore compendium, or the wiki pages for the specific races (both on wikia and this site's wiki) to double check.
5) If you notice any contradictions in answers, you are welcome to point them out. Note that established lore may be rewritten as time passes based on necessity or desire.

Expectation For Answers
Questions may be answered at any time, but the general expectation is that all questions will be answered during the first week of the following month. Answers will be added to the lore compendium, which will be updated after the topic is closed.

How does the Church view Asago? How does Mercala and the Voice view Asago? When Asago appeared out of nowhere one day, how did the Church as a whole, the Voice, and Mercala view this oddity?

Just how brutal is Lordwain's climate? Does it get mild enough in the warmer months to grow certain hardy crops, such as carrots or turnips? If not, how do they survive?

I have some questions regarding the specific treatment of zeran vampires within Alstalsia, mostly pertaining to their status.

1) How are Zerans who have turned into vampires viewed within Alstalsia? Is it viewed as heinous or anything else otherwise since they have given away their gift/reward?
2) What is the treatment of these individuals? Anything particularly drastic such as exile, anything as little as being thumbed at? Or indifferent to the matter altogether, nothing?

That's all I really wanted to ask.

Do Ereshkigal's followers believe she has a different domain then Zera? What do they think and/or say she looks like?

Hi there Dev, my question pertains to the relationship between a summoner and their summons after becoming a Shaitan. When someone becomes a Shaitan, is the contract between summoner and summon broken due to one side forgetting it?

[Shadbase]

Speaking of summoner questions!
Is it at all possible for a summoner to be able to negotiate their contract so that their youkai can be given to their child (if they had any) upon death as long as the child also became a summoner? Or - actually, any sort of transferral around the same lines?
(Mostly coming from the fact I have all three of mine Regalia'd and it'd kinda suck to just say "lol luck found the exact same ones again :)" rather than something more thematic / RP friendly-)

what is the time limit for someone to return as dullahan? As in, after they die, what is longest acceptable time they can spend "dead" before the armor wakes up.

How long ago before the people stop speaking with the ancient language? Like the time period whereas it was forgotten.
