===Mark===
Those who seek the Ox's power may seek the marks of stasis
* '''Temptation: an Ending:''' I have become tired with change and seek to preserve what I have
# '''Dedication: an Ending:''' I have decicated myself to stasis. Nothing shall change nothing shall happen all I shall be preserved.
# '''Ascension: an Ending:''' The Rotted Ox has shown me the truth change and progress is a lie, why bother when things decay and end eventually. My eyes are open this is the third mark.
# '''Ascension: an Ending:''' I haven't washed in weeks and wear tattered clothing. I have become a pariah this is the fourth mark.
# '''Ascension: an Ending:''' Everything I touch decay and ages rapidly. I have been blessed with the fifth mark
# '''Ascension: an Ending:''' My flesh is withered and the bone pokes through but the mind is strong. This is the sixth mark.
The truth of Stasis I am immortal, I am perfect, I am a skeletal long in the service of the rotted ox. He has shown me the truth and I Welcome it I will not age, I will not die I am preserved for all time.

In the depths of the wood, there is a dark fetid swamp. The swamp is filled with decrepit old ruins and lost mementos, choked with slime and weeds, slowly sinking deeper into the swamp. This is the domain of the Rotted Ox, where he plots and spreads his influence working to bring the end that will one day come.
