The Chimeric Cadent is an ancient being who lives in Chimera's Lantern, overseeing and protecting the corpses of numerous Divines.

History and Involvement

At some point shortly after the end of Twilight Mirage, ⸢Signet⸣, the Waking Cadent, and a (currently unknown) Divine left the Mirage and were "stitched together" into the Chimeric Cadent.[1]

The Chimeric Cadent was the force that drove the burgeoning Divine Principality from Palisade on Embarkation Day. They maintain Chimera's Lantern as a sanctuary for Divines: a place where Divines can come to die and rest without being forced back into service to the Principality. Divines warded by the Chimeric Cadent include Souciance, Sagacity, Dissent, Felicity, Barricade, Bounty, and Loyalty.

More than five thousand years after taking up its post in the Palisade system, the Chimeric Cadent is met by the Figure, Thisbe, and Coriolis Sunset during their search for a new source of magic to replace Perennial's in keeping the Figure alive. It is suspicious of the Figure's motives and of the mark of the Usher of Truth left on him, but is convinced to provide the Figure with a way to free himself from the Witch in Glass.[2]
