The followers of N’kuhana believe there is a balance to the world. Health and time. Pain and love. Death and memories. All in perfect synergy. As time went on, the balance of the world was destabilized. There were more births than there were people dying. With no volume for death in the world, N’kuhana could not visit her pupils. With the aid from the scriptures known as The N’tormat, her disciples spread her words and opinions. They will sow death to restore order to the world and be granted audience with her.
The belief of N'kuhana can be traced to other parts of the universe. One such instance can be traced back to a burial site on Venus. There was a ritual taking place that was supposedly interrupted by a boy who did not believe in the concepts of N'kuhana.
A group of survivors, some devotees, can be traced to the Wetland Aspect. Consisting of Marion, Hitchcock, Pugh, Larsen, Dillon, Carney, Stevens, and an unnamed member (devotee and the narrator of the Wetland Aspect log). Marion was in possession of the 
Ceremonial Dagger
Ceremonial Dagger
Killing an enemy releases homing daggers.
Killing an enemy fires out 3 homing daggers that deal 150% (+150% per stack) base damage., a knife used to sacrifice believers and heretics alike as gifts for N’kuhana.
At some point, the group was attacked by 
Stone Golems
Stone Golem
HP: 480 (+144 per level)
Damage: 20 (+4 per level)
Class: Ranged / Melee
Speed: 6.6 m/s
Armor: Unknown. In the golems' pursuit, Hitchcock was blown to pieces. Marion frantically begged the unnamed member to kill her with the dagger, claiming it was magical and would save the group. Reluctantly, they killed Marion. Pugh witnessed the murder, and his misunderstanding and subsequent noisy reaction risked the group's safety, leaving the killer with no choice but to kill him, too.
That night, a member of the group, Carney, found a book on N'kuhana's teachings — likely the N'tormat or another text about Her Concepts. Inspired by the religious text and worried he might interfere, the killer murdered Carney and stashed his corpse in a hidden Altar to N'kuhana, where they worshipped Her Concepts.
The exact timing is unclear, but the killer murdered the rest of the group sometime later in ritualistic sacrifice.
