The lost [[Kellid (human ethnicity)|Kellid]] realm of '''Sarkoris''' (pronounced sah-KOHR-ihs)<ref>{{Cite book/Campaign Setting|247}}</ref> was a savage land of fiercely painted warriors and witches<ref>{{Cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|212}}</ref> established in [[3672 AR]].<ref>{{cite book/The Worldwound|rear inside cover}}</ref>

== History ==
Sarkorian mystics had long identified that the barrier between planes was thin in Sarkoris. Historically, the central region of barrows known as the [[Northmounds]] was haunted by strange monsters, and infested by cultists of [[Deskari]], [[demon lord]] of the Locust Host. In [[4433 AR]], [[Aroden]] drove the cult into the [[Lake of Mists and Veils]] and made the region safe from further demonic incursions.<ref name="ISWG-198">{{Cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|198}}</ref>

==Society==
The western city of [[Dyinglight]] was the spiritual heart of Sarkorian religion, with an impressive ring of idols revering [[Pulura]], mistress of the stars.

The country’s central plateau was the site of numerous mines, and the nearby city of [[Iz]] was a centre of stone and metalworking.<ref name="ISWG-200">{{Cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|200}}</ref>

Miners from the plateau would also trade in the city of [[Undarin]], rubbing shoulders with the herders of western Sarkoris bringing their flocks to market.<ref>{{Cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|201}}</ref>

The shaman-ruled south eastern city of [[Storasta]] remained an independent city for centuries. However, following an incident in [[4000 AR]], the high witch-wardens of the three other major cities, Iz, Dyinglight and Undarin and the Warlord [[Uloric Dziergas]] annexed the city and brought it into the nation of Sarkoris.<ref>{{Cite book/Lost Cities of Golarion|25}}</ref>

==Demonic Invasion==
A few years before the prophesied return of Aroden, stirrings of demonic cults began. The people were confident that Aroden's return would directly lead to a final end of these cults. Unfortunately, his death ruined these hopes.<ref name="ISWG-198" />

The death of Aroden in [[4606 AR]] also saw the appearance of the [[Worldwound]], a gaping gateway to the [[Abyss]], in the heart of Sarkoris.<ref>{{Cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|36}}</ref> The nearby city of Iz was the first to fall to [[demon]]ic forces, and the other clan-holds soon followed. The very land became warped and twisted, and demons continued to spew forth from the Worldwound. <ref>{{Cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|198-9}}</ref>

The city of Storasta was the last to fall, its sacred circles defended ferociously by tribal [[witch]]es and shamans, aided by [[druid]]s from [[Mendev]] and [[Numeria]]. Their bloody last stand is commemorated in the tragic [[Song of Sarkoris]].<ref>{{Cite book/Lost Cities of Golarion|25}}</ref>

The church of [[Iomedae]], appalled by the demonic invasion, declared the [[Mendevian Crusades]] in order to drive back the demons. However, whilst they have been somewhat successful in containing the threat, Sarkoris itself remains firmly under demonic control. <ref>{{Cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|199}}</ref>

Only the remote southern town of [[Gundrun]] remains free – mainly because the demons have more or less forgotten about it in their larger conflict with [[Mendev]]. Refugees of lost Sarkoris huddle here, all that remains of a once-proud culture.<ref name="ISWG-200" />
