In the Wildlands beyond the Echors, the barbarians of Borgondia claim, their great bestial ancestors roam. According to Borgondian myths, their ancestors were born of great spirits in the bodies of animals. These spirits, again, according to the barbarian myths, are the very masters of the natural world, giving shape and substance to the environment. And, if corrupted by Darkening, spreading that corruption.
In the Ecclesiarchic tradition, the Great Beasts are demonic spirits, to be banished or extinguished. But similar to dragons, these Great Beasts appear in unspoiled or ancient natural habitats. They seem to embody natural qualities, natural energies, forces of life.
In barbarian traditions, these are the Anima by which they live their lives. In Phaetonic tradition, they are monsters that have to be driven out or killed.
