“ | The Wound, cut from the flesh of totality - deep, it severed the line of future and past. Drawn to its ancient fester, gods swarmed as flies to a corpse. We waited within bloodless veins, faithful to that which we could not know - unable to imagine that we might become their greater. Here, we slept - until our souls became flesh. |

–Sone Alku, Sarkicism Hub |
Nälkä (GoI-28), or Sarkicism to outsiders, is an ancient anomalous religious-philosophical cult that worships the flesh according to the teachings of Grand Karcist Ion, its creator and deity. He absorbed the power of Važjuma to increase his own ontokinetic and thaumaturgic abilities. Their main adversary is the Church of the Broken God, which profoundly opposes Sarkicism through its worship of the Broken God Mekhane.
Sarkicism adherents are divided into two sects: Neo-Sarkicism and Proto-Sarkicism. Neo-Sarkic cults are libertine and include members of high society, using complex rituals and sophisticated technology; Proto-Sarkic cults are more rural and isolated, using primitive rites and crude technology.
