==Connection with the Leagues of Votann==

Some [[Leagues of Votann|Kin]] myths mention a “group of gleaming golden figures” in relation to the first [[Votann]] (sometimes referred to as the Gilded One, the stonemind, and the primal ancestors). Some myths speak of them as being the wisest and eldest of the First Ancestors, and are also depicted as shadowy presences that are ill-defined and shown in many different forms (similar to the Emperor and Erda using shapeshifting powers or illusions), both humanoid and otherwise, where they are depicted at all. They have also been said in some myths to look like a wheel of graven stone faces. It said in Kin myths that the Votann (an alternate name for the First Ancestors’s leader and namesake of the Ancestor Cores) raised the Kin up, and sent them sailing into the dark void – before oceans of fire and flesh rose to swallow them.
