<h2>Beliefs</h2>
<p>Those who become members of the Cabal are heavily indoctrinated into their Cabal's beliefs. This includes their enigmatic guide – the Nightsinger, whom they themselves hold next to know knowledge about – who they credit with being the one whose opened their eyes to the so-called “hidden truths” of the world, ultimately making them realize how irredeemably unjust and unfair the current world order is. The Nightsinger is thus seen as a patron of hidden wisdom, who exposes the flaws and hypocrisies of the world and its existing power structures, and as a guide who guides them to an envisioned better future. The Cabal's ultimate goal is to topple the existing power structure and replace it with this envisioned future—a future they believe to be fair and just, albeit one where they must hold the most crucial positions of power to maintain this supposed fairness and justice. Unbeknownst to the Cabal itself is the fact that the organization's very founding was a result of the Nightsinger's subtle machinations and manipulative words, and that to her the Cabal is but a convenient tool she created in order to reach her own goals.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The members of the Cabal sees the current world order, and its instututions, as a pervasive corruption that plagues all. It is a structure that perpetuates inequality, injustice, exploitation, and widespread suffering, for all except those who created and perpetuate it. A system where the hardworking who deserve better are pushed down while their superiors claim the rewards. Many of the Cabal's members harbor a deep sense of having personally been slighted by the current status quo, and that they've been denied something they believe themselves to rightfully deserve. Their view can often be rather twisted, as they can often themselves be in rather privileged positions, but still believe their efforts have made them deserving of more than what they've been given. The Cabal has fostered such a deep disdain for the current status quo that its members believe that only by completely dismantling the current system and institutions can a new structure be built – a fairer structure where all are given what they justly deserve. Or at least, what the members of the Cabal believe everyone deserves. The Nightsinger, through her masterful machinations, has managed to engrain this though of injustice so deeply into the Cabal's members that they extend their grievances not only to the people in positions of power, but to also be the fault of the very deities themselves, including Marcandria's Diostri. Society is according to them a reflection of the deities' wills and teaching, &nbsp;and as such, the root cause of the festering injustice that permeates it is also to be attributed to these deities.</p>
