The eighth are the remains of the [[higher human|people from the old times]], the leftovers of civilisation from before [[great collapse|the fall]], they seek to //free// [[feral humans]] from the //tyranny// of the [[Illúme]] because they believe that the [[Jeém]] engineered the current status quo.
