Who sacrifices more? Those enforcing the law or those forced to live beneath it?

THE DUCITI

 

An order that confuses control with stability, the Duciti preserve peace through sanctioned cruelty — erasing lives, outlawing power, and calling it balance.

 

The Duciti govern through regulation and restraint, convinced that only absolute control can prevent another magical catastrophe — no matter the human cost.

 

 

‘The Six.’

 

Constructed from catastrophe and sustained by fear, the Duciti rule through regulation, surveillance, and pre-emptive control — convinced that unchecked power will inevitably lead to ruin.

 

To them, stability is sacred. Mercy is dangerous. And freedom is a risk no society can afford.

 

They do not see individuals — only patterns, probabilities, and potential threats. Witches are catalogued, ranked, and deployed. Power is centralised, contained, and weaponised in the name of order.

 

Every sacrifice is justified.

Every cruelty is necessary.

Every failure proves their relevance.

 

In protecting the world from chaos, the Duciti have learned to live without compassion — mistaking control for morality, and obedience for peace.

 

And in Luciana, they see not a saviour…

 

…but a system-breaking force they may never fully command.

The world decides what you are. 
What you become is something else entirely.
