Ogre Basilica Guards

Golden-Skinned Ogres · The Threshold Ogres

Golden-skinned ogre forms worn by two changelings that can bar a god from crossing a threshold.

Story so far

Two changelings take the form of ogre basilica guards to hold the entrance to Shanty Town against Harpocrates. According to Li Na, ogres with golden skin have the ability to stop gods from passing a threshold, and gods appear unwilling to attack them.

The pair stand firm, and the god halts at the edge of the city rather than force his way past. Li Na hopes they too won't needlessly die.
