Three Inviolates

Definition

A collective label used in mathic discourse for three geographically separated Thousanders’ communities said to have remained unentered during the Third Sack. By current usage it refers to: Concent of Saunt Edhar, Concent of Saunt Rambalf, and Concent of Saunt Tredegarh.

Context and Membership

The name highlights endurance and isolation during a time when lower maths fell. Within mathic memorials, plaques and stories group these three as “inviolates,” tying the phrase to the Third Sack.

Interpretations and Discussion

• Among Fendant‑minded avout, one suspicion holds that the trio remained inviolate because their sites were too dangerous to sack—alleged repositories for hazardous Praxic‑Age remnants (e.g., so‑called “Everything Killers”). This is presented in‑world as a hypothesis rather than established fact.
• A Thousander from Saunt Edhar has stated that the Saecular Power placed nuclear waste at three locations—Edhar, Rambalf, and Tredegarh—around the time of the Reconstitution. At Edhar, the material is described as sealed in cylinders stored in a rock cavern, with long‑lived thatched coverings maintained above the cylinders to prevent condensate drips and stalagmite formation that could stress the containers. This account is recorded here as testimony from within the maths.

Recent Mentions

• Observers have noted red illumination from above highlighting named maths; two of the trio, Rambalf and Tredegarh, were reported as singled out by a narrow red beam. The intent of these displays remains unclear in current sources.

Notes

The Three Inviolates is a label, not an organization. Usage in speech often includes a definite article; both article and bare forms are encountered extramuros and intramuros.
