College of Hymns

Bards of the College of Hymns recount glorious epics, stories of battles and when they pick at the strings of the weave, they produce music that taps into the power of the Upper Planes. Depending on their devotion or believes, these hymns take different forms, but they all come with a touch of the divine.
