Posing as a Scholar in a World of Transcendence, My System is the Cultist Simulator?

Amid the surging tides of seafaring and fortune, who can reach the supernatural? Where royal power intertwines with divine authority, who is whispering? Arthur awakens in the captain's cabin and opens his eyes to this world:

Cannons, sailing ships, cutlasses, sextants; potions, secret histories, immortality, the supernatural, contraband... Dazzling light dispels the fog, and mysterious cults quietly emerge. This is a tale of the Mansus.

Arthur awakens the Cultist Simulator, gaining:

[Dream] [Study] [Explore] [Rites]

By establishing a cult, the Society of the Hours, and recruiting followers, he can awaken the Nine Principles and acquire the Invisible Arts.

[Moth] [Lantern] [Forge] [Winter] [Edge] [Heart] [Grail] [Knock] [Secret Histories]

Nine disciples of the Hours travel across the Misty Sea and the New World, spreading the exalted name of a hidden being:

"Great Hour!"

"You are the light of the Wood surrounding the Mansus!"

"The source of the Invisible Arts!"

Years later, Arthur gazes at the fairy tales in his hands, their pages recording ancient secret histories.
