Followers of Lolion were an influential fundamentalist sect of Lolion that believed in a non-elusive Quun Tirtoir, an infinite staircase, and devoted their lives to finding it.
Commonly referred to as Seekers, they were known for their sectarian violence, the use of explosives and hooded robes. Their exploration of the Continent in search of the staircase helped propagate Lolion that would have otherwise become a dead religion after the fall of the Western Dantrian Civilization.
Seekers first appear in the historical record in the middle of the second revolution. While they have been sighted throughout the Continent, from southern Tarnaria to Heran, in Yammoe and in Nanonae, their primary focus was Gantolia.
The origin of the belief that Quun Tirtoir is located somewhere in Gantolia is unknown, but is presumed to have originated in Central Dantria. No documents relating to the early history of Followers of Lolion has ever been found. It is hypothesized that the sect was not known in Dantria at the time and that it was just one of many. On the other hand, the number of Seekers traveling from Dantria to the east had significantly increased throughout the centuries, implying that the sect secured a more prominent position.
After the fall of Dantria, Followers of Lolion became the only surviving link to the original practice of the religion. By the third revolution the movement generally dispersed, with Seekers joining the military in the form of special divisions that utilize explosives in combat, and their views have become considerably more moderate.
