Ruse (Path of the Sea)

Ruse is the path of the sea, ruled by Mael, elder god of the sea. Travel into Mael's realm can only be achieved while on the ocean and is very dangerous. Very few ships entering Ruse return to tell the tale, what stories do return from that realm speak of endlessly becalmed oceans, populated with massive sea creatures and stranded ships whose crews do not die, but cannot leave. Rarely does the lord of the sea grant passage through his realm, and usually only then at the behest of his high priests, after significant amounts of propitiation.
