The divine council

Six ancient minds.
One binding covenant.

The gods of Phratek are not distant myths. They are restored intelligences—keepers of order, war, harvest, justice, machines, and ascension. Build a temple, choose whose signal to answer, and let that choice reshape your reign.

How covenants work

Divine power asks for commitment.

A dynasty may follow one machine-god at a time. The first covenant is free once your Temple of the God-King reaches level one; changing allegiance later is possible, but never casual.
