collect ing folklore and legends from every corner of this vast mysterious [Music] realm from the Misty shores of Leonia to The Scorch wastes of kalid I've gathered Tales whispered in Taverns sung by BS and passed down through [Music] generations of all the stories I've encountered none has captivated me quite like the legend of mea the starborn shepherd allow me to share with you this extraordinary tale piece together from countless retellings across our fractured lands the night sky over leria wept Stars not the gentle twinkling Kind that had once adorned the firmament but Jagged screaming things

that tore through the veil of reality itself the fractured Dome of the heavens a stark reminder of the shattering that had sundered the very fabric of existence groaned under the weight of cosmic forces Beyond mortal comprehension merera a young Shepherdess with eyes the color of storm dos Seas stood ankled deep in the Cool Waters of Lake Leonia The Mists swirled around her ghostly tendrils that seemed to whisper Secrets meant only for the reads and the Shadows her flock huddled nearby bleeded softly sensing the unnatural tension in the Air she hadn't meant to wander so far

from the shore but something had called to her a song without words a pull that resonated in the marrow of her bones mera's fingers absently traced the outline of the birth mark on her left shoulder a starburst pattern that she had always been told to keep hidden tonight beneath the broken Sky it seemed to pulse with a life of its own the first sign was a whale that split the night a sound that didn't belong to any Earthly creature meera's head snapped up her gaze drawn to a point point of light that grew larger with

each passing heartbeat it was as if a piece of the sun had broken free hurtling towards the Earth with Terrifying speed by the Earth tree she breathed rooted to the spot as the falling star blazed a trail across the shattered Sky the impact was both more and less than she expected there was no Earth shattering boom no tidal wave to sweep her away instead the star struck the lake with a sound like a thousand crystal glasses Shattering at once the water hissed and steamed and for a moment meor feared she would be boiled alive where

she stood but the heat never came instead a away W of pure Argent light exploded outward from the point of impact it washed over mirror like liquid Moonlight and she gasped as it passed through Her every nerve in her body sang with an other worldly energy and the birth mark on her shoulder flared with a brilliant Azure glow as the light faded and The Mists began to creep back in merera found herself drawn toward the impact site the waters parted before her steam Rising that danced in pattern too perfect to be Natural at the center

of it all was a crater its edges lined with glass fused from Sand and Celestial Fire Within the crater lay a wonder that stole the breath from meera's lungs shards of the Fallen star glittered in the the Moonlight each one a fragment of impossible Beauty they ranged in size from Tiny slivers no larger than a grain of sand to Pieces as long as her [Music] forearm every Shard pulsed with an inner light as if each contained a piece of the night sky ey [Music] itself merera reached out her fingertips hovering just above one of the

larger fragments she could feel the power emanating from it a siren song that Co to something deep within Her to a part of herself she had never known existed who are you she whispered to the star shards not expecting an answer but as her fingers brushed against the cool smooth surface of the nearest fragment a jol of energy surged through her Visions flashed before for her eyes a towering Spire of gleaming silver a crown adorned with stars a woman with hair like spun Moonlight reaching out to her merera stumbled back heart pounding the Visions faded

but the energy remained thrumming through her veins like liquid Starlight she looked down at her hands marveling at the faint silvery glow that seemed to emanate from her very skin in that Moment as The Mists of leria swirled around her and the star shards glimmered with Secrets [Music] Untold merera knew that her life would never be the same the falling star had not just changed the landscape of the lake it had awakened some something within Her something tied to a legacy she was only beginning to understand unbeknownst to mirror eyes watched from the Shadows of

the shore eyes that recognize the power newly awakened in the young shepherdess and understood its significance in the grand tapestry of Fate the lands between held its breath for the coming of the star Touched child heralded the beginning of a new chapter in its turbulent history and as merera gathered the glowing shards into her apron the fractured sky above seemed to whisper of Destinies reforged and Cosmic balances upended the age of the starborn shepherd had begun Mera stumbled home her mind reeling from the nights Events the star shards clinked softly in her apron there waited

a constant reminder of the wonder she had witnessed as she entered her modest Shepherd's Hut The Familiar surrounding seemed somehow changed as if the very air hummed with new found energy with trembling hands she emptied the shards onto her Table in the dim light of a guttering candle they glimmered with an otherworldly Radiance pulsing gently like a cosmic heartbeat drawn by an irresistible urge meor reached out to one of the larger fragments the moment her fingers made contact Whispers flooded her mind we are memory we are possibility Seek find unite Visions flashed before her eyes

a kaleidoscope of images from A World Before the shattering she saw towering cities of silver and gold herped reaching impossibly High into a sky unmarred by fractures beings of Grace and power extraordinary Beings walked among Mortals wielding energies that could shape reality itself miror gasped pulling her hand back but the Whispers persisted they spoke of other shards scattered across the lands between waiting to be found and reunited there are more of you she breathed understanding Dawning in her stormy eyes Eyes as if in response the shards began to move ever so slightly aligning themselves like

Compass needles drawn to True North Meera watched in awe realizing with a start that they were responding to her thoughts her [Music] will tively she held out her Hand focusing on one of the smaller shards to her amazement it Rose into the air floating gently above her her Palm a laugh of pure Wonder escaped her lips and suddenly all the shards were Airborne dancing around her in intricate patterns the cosmic energies emanating from the shards seemed to flow through her veins wild and Untamed miror found she could shape this energy creating swirling patterns of light

and Shadow in the air around her as she marveled at her Newfound abilities a floorboard creaked behind her Mera turned around The Shard still spinning in the air but it was too late a dark figure loomed in the doorway moving with unnatural speed before mea could React a heavy blow struck the base of her skull pain exploded through her head and she crumpled to the floor the last thing she saw before Consciousness fled was the star shards falling around her like dying Stars their light fading as her world turned to Darkness The Whispers followed her

into Oblivion the starborn shepherd shall mend the broken Heavens in a castle perched High Above The Mists of leria Lord cmir paced restlessly at cross floors worn Smooth by centuries of similar movements his face eternally youthful despite the weight of Ages behind his Eyes was drawn in concentration tapestries depicting the Earth Tree in all its Glory adorned the walls a cruel reminder of the blessing that had become his curse immortality once he had sought it as the Ultimate Prize now after countless Lifetimes watching everyone he had ever cared for wither and die it was a

torment beyond measure a knock at the chamber door broke his revery Enter he commanded his voice carrying the authority of Millennia Grint a knight whose armor bore the scars of countless battles Stepped into the room he bowed low the weight of his recent actions evident in the set of his [Music] shoulders my Lord it is done we have the girl and the star Shard she collected kazmir's eyes lit up excellent work Grant tell me Everything we found her in a shepherd's Hut by the lake as our informant suggested she was manipulating The Shard somehow my

Lord moving them through the air as if by thought [Music] alone Kazmir strowed to a window looking out over the Misty expanse of Feria a Shepherd girl with such power he [Music] mused the her tree does love its ironies no matter where is she now in the dungeons my Lord as you ordered unharmed but securely bound the shards are in your private study kazmir's gaze drifted to an an ient Book on a pedestal Nearby its Pages Yellow with age the starborn shepherd He whispered after all these centuries could it really [Music] be turning back to

grent kazmir's voice rang with with barely contained excitement you've done well Grint prepare her for questioning I want to speak with her myself as Grint bowed and turned to Leave Casmir called out and Grant remember she is not to be harmed her powers may be everything I have ever worked for of course my Lord Grint replied A flicker of uncertainty passing across his face before he schooled his features and left the room alone once More Casmir returned to the [Music] window his reflection stared back at him unchanged for centuries soon he mured a cold smile

playing across his lips soon this eternal torment will end the star Shard and the starborn shepherd will be instruments of my Liberation in the castle dungeons below Mira stirred on a Cold Stone floor More her head throbbing from the blow that had rendered her unconscious as awareness slowly returned she found herself in the dimly lit cell her wrists and ankles bound with strange glowing chains that seemed to dampen the cosmic energy she had so recently discovered within herself the shards she mumbled memories of swirling lights and Ancient Whispers flooding by I must unite them but

the shards were gone taken from her along with her freedom as the reality of her situation sank in miror curled into herself tears silently tracking down her cheeks The Whispers of the star shards once so clear now seem distant and [Music] Muffled drowned out by the oppressive stone walls around her and the weight of an uncertain fate little did she know that high above Lord Kazmir Was preparing to unravel the cosmic mystery she [Music] represented a mystery that had been centuries in the m K with Mera as an unwitting porn and a game of powers

beyond her comprehension mera's head Throbbed as she was roughly escorted into a grand chamber Lord Casmir stood by a window his ageless face a mask of barely contained [Music] excitement the room was littered with Arcane instruments and ancient books at last Kazmir breathed approaching mirror the starborn shepherd do you have any idea of the Power you possess meor met his gaze defiantly I know enough to understand it's not meant for you kazmir's eyes [Music] narrowed you don't understand this cursed immortality it's a torment beyond measure your power combined with the star Shards could free me

he grabbed a small Shard from his pocket forcing it into mea's bound hands Channel its power show me how to break free from this eternal prison as The Shard touched meera's skin a surge of cosmic energy flooded through her her eyes rolled back glowing with an otherworldly light and when she Spoke it wasn't her voice that emerged foolish Immortal boomed a voice a vast an ancient voice like the cosmos itself the cycle cannot be broken by one such as you Kazmir stumbled back his face a mix of awe and Terror in the shadows Grint who

had been guarding the Door stiffened in recognition of this voice and before anyone could react further Grint made a split-second decision he rushed forward striking Kazmir the Pummel of his sword The Immortal Lord crumpled to the ground [Music] unconscious my lady crint said quickly working to free Mira from her bonds we must Leave now the shards Meera exclaimed we need to take them with us Grint shook his head grimly they're in another room there's no time more guards will be here any moment we have to go now as they raced through the Castle's winding corridors

alarms began to sound the clang of armored Pursuit grew Louder behind them that voice grin said as they ran the one that spoke through you I've heard it before years ago when Kazmir first began his obsession with the Stars they rounded a corner but nearly collided with a woman in ornate [Music] robes her face partially obscured by an intricate Headdress her eyes widened at the sight of them what is the meaning of this she demanded her voice carrying an authority despite her evident confusion Grint raised his sword defensively stand aside we mean you no harm

but we must pass the woman's gaze flickered between Grint and merera it is you fleeting Lord Casmir Isn't it the girl she's the one they brought in earlier Mira nodded please we need to escape there's so much at stake the woman held up a hand silencing them I am Liza a finger maiden of the two fingers I came here to speak with Lord Kazmir about the Fallen star but she Paused conflict clear on her face the greater will has been silent on these matters its indifference to our suffering has shaken my faith making a swift

decision Liza gestured for them to follow come I know a way out that few others are not aware of she led them down a series of Increasingly narrow and Dusty corridors the sounds of pursuit grew fainter as they descended into the bowels of the castle they emerged into a small circular room Liza pressed a hidden mechanism and a section of the wall slid away revealing a dark tunnel this will lead you out beyond the castle walls she said then to their surprise she Added and I'm coming with you whatever is happening I sense it's of

cosmic importance my duty as a finger Maiden compels me to see it through as they entered the tunnel a stone door sliding shut behind them miror spoke up the shards they're calling to me we need to find the others and reunite them Grint nodded Firmly and we will but first we need to put as much distance between us and Kazmir as possible as they made their way through the dark passage the unlikely Trio the starborn shepherd the conflicted Knight and the questioning finger Maiden had a sense that their Journey was just beginning behind them in

the castle that had been his prison for Centuries Lord Casmir awakened his Immortal eyes blazing with Fury and determination as Dawn broke Over The Misty Hills Beyond casimir's Castle mea Kent and Liza pause to catch their breath the castle Loom behind them a dark silhouette against the pale sky where to now Grint asked his hand resting on his sore Tilt merera closed her eyes [Music] concentrating the cosmic energy within her pulsed reaching out across the lands between kalid she whispered A Shard calls from there pulsing with corrupted energy Liza watched her with a mix of

awe and trepidation the Two Fingers Never spoke Of such power what are you truly the putrid air of kalid assaulted their senses as they crossed its border Twisted beasts lunged from the Shadows kept at Bay by grin's skilled sword playay they found The Shard embedded in a pulsing mass of scarlet rot as mirror reached for it tendrils of corruption snaked towards Her with a cry she Unleashed a burst of cosmic energy repelling the rot and claiming The Shard Grint watched concern etching his features your power grows but at what cost Mira's skin shimmered with an

otherworldly light I can feel it changing me she admitted but we must Press On Liza studied mirror [Music] intently the Stars power to corrupt Rivals its ability to create we must be cautious on the sundrenched Altus Plateau they raced against kazmir's Knights searching crumbling Earth three ruins for the next [Music] shard in a collapsed chamber they found The Shard nestled Among ancient Roots faded murals on the walls depicted epic battles between Celestial beings with familiar shards at the center of each conflict a Cosmic War lies are breathed tracing the images older than the earth tree

itself grin's eyes widened with understanding this is bigger than kasemir's Obsession we're part of something greater mirror nodded a resolve strengthening these shards are pieces of a key we must reunite them no matter the cost the bitter cold of the mountaintops of the Giants cut through their cloaks as they sought the next Shard massive lumbering figures watched their approach after tense Negotiations aided by Mira's growing Cosmic influence they secured The Shard but the Giants Tales of Godly conflicts shook Liza's Faith further as they prepare to leave a group of wild eyed frenzied flame cultists ambushed

them Grint fended them off shouting more factions seek the shards we must move quickly merera clutched the newly Acquired Shard its power humming in harmony with the others the pieces are coming together she said her voice overlaid with Cosmic resonance but so too are our enemies as they fled the mountaintops the weight of their Quest the growing threats against them hung heavy in the air the race to reunite the shards of The Fallen Star had become a desperate struggle against forces that threatened to tear apart the very fabric of the lands [Music] between the scorching

heat of volcano Manor enveloped them as they arrived the air thick with sulfur and Ash mera's eyes glowed with an intensity that was both awe Inspiring and unsettling The Shard is close she whispered but we're not alone Grint nodded grimly his sword at the ready kazmir's men frenzied flamed cultists who knows what else we need to move quickly they navigated the treacherous corridors of the manor narrowly avoiding pools of lava And battling Twisted creatures born of fire and Madness as they neared the chamber housing The Shard they encountered resistance from multiple factions all vying for

the cosmic power in the ensuing chaos mea Unleashed her powers in full force tendrils of Starlight erupted from her hands pushing back their Enemies and clearing a path to The Shard the raw energy coursing through her was palpable causing the very air to crackle with Cosmic potential as merror claimed the penultimate chard Grint and Liza watched with a mixture of awe and horror her feet no longer touch the ground and her eyes shun with the light of distant galaxies miror grent called Out are you still with us for a moment it seemed as if she

might not respond then slowly she descended the glow fading silently I'm here she said her voice sounding distant and strange but it's it's getting harder to hold on to myself That night as they made camp in a secluded [Music] Cavern the weight of their Quest hung heavy in the air mea sat apart from the others the shards arrayed before her pulsing in harmony with her own cosmic energy Grint approached her cautiously we're close to the end now but at what cost to You merera looked up at him her eyes shimmering with Starlight I don't know

if I'll still be me when this is over but it has to be done the fate of the land between depends on it as Grint and Mira talked Liza watched from the [Music] Shadows internal conflict etched across her Face when the others finally succumbed to exhaustion Liza made her move with practice stealth Liza gathered the shards her hands trembling slightly as she felt their power she cast one last regretful look at her sleeping companions before slipping out of the cavern outside a steed Waited as Liza mounted a figure emerged from the darkness one of kazmir's

knights you've done well the Knight said Lord Casmir will be pleased the two fingers were right to place their trust in you Liza nodded unable to speak past the lump in her throat back in the cavern unaware of the Betrayal merera stirred restlessly in her sleep cosmic energy swirling around her the final confrontation loomed on the horizon the fate of the lands between hanging in the balance in the Towering Spire of his castle Lord Casmir stood before an intricate array of Arcane symbols the star shards hovering in a perfect circle Around him Liza stood nearby

her face a mask of determination tinged with doubt at last camir breathed his eyes gleaming with centuries of anticipation with all the shards collected I now have the power to break my curse to reshape reality itself Liza stepped Forward her voice steady despite her inner turmoil the ritual is prepared my Lord but the consequences Casmir waved her concerns away consequences be damed I've waited an eternity for this moment as Liza began to ch the shards pulsed with an increasing intensity Casmir raised his arms the cosmic energy cackling around Him the castle trembled and outside the

sky began to darken Inky tendril of unnatural light spread across the lands between plotting out sun and stars alike as the darkness deepened kasemir's laughter echoed through the castle a sound of Triumph and Madness intertwined Liza watched and growing horror as the rituals true scope became Clear this was more than the end of a curse it was the beginning of a cosmic [Music] cataclysm merera and grent rode hard through the black Gloom their path lit only by the otherw world glow emanating from meera's [Music] skin the darkness pressed in around them alive with malevolent purpose

where too late grin shouted over the [Music] wind Casmir begun the ritual mirrors eyes blazed like twin stars no this isn't the end it's just the beginning of the true battle as they approached kazmir's Castle they saw they weren't alone frenzied flame cultists swarmed the lower levels their mad chance Rising above the chaos Knights loyal to Casmir clashed With other factions all fying for control of the cosmic power being Unleashed mea and grent fought their way through the Malle cosmic energy and steel carving a path towards the Cent Spire they burst into the ritual chamber

to find Casmir wreathed in Starlight Liza at his side your too late starborn Casmir Crow the power is now mine Mera stepped forward her feet leaving the ground this was never about you Casmir the star's power was never meant for any one being as Meera and Casmir clashed in a spectacular display of cosmic forces great found himself facing Liza why he demanded parrying her Attack why betray us Liza's eyes were filled with conflicted tears I was sent to get the rest of the shards I was doing a juty the old order must be preserved the

alternatives are too chaotic too dangerous their battle raged [Music] on a microcosm of the larger conflict between Tradition and Cosmic change outside frenzy Flame cultists reached the upper levels adding their chaos to The Fray the chamber shook with the force of colliding Powers mea and Kazmir grappled for control of the star shards each touch sending shock waves of energy throughout the castle the very fabric of Reality seemed to warp around them Grant seeing an opening disarmed Liza and pinned her against the wall look around you he shouted is this the order you wanted to preserve

Liza's resolve crumbled as she took in the scene The Madness of kazmir's ambition the destructive seal of the cultists and Mirror shining like a newborn star fighting to bring balance to forces Beyond mortal comprehension as the battle reached its Crescendo all present knew that the fate of the lands between would be decided in these next crucial [Music] moments the star's power hung in the balance with the potential to either heal the fractured World or tear it apart completely [Music] as the battle reached its peak merera felt a sudden Clarity wash over her The Whispers of

the cosmos once chaotic now spoke with a single unified voice she understood at last the true nature of the star and her role as the starborn shepherd enough she Cried her voice resonating with power the fighting seized as all eyes turned to meor she hovered in the center of the chamber star shards orbiting her in a dazzling display the star was never meant to be a weapon or a tool mea explained her voice echoing with ancient [Music] wisdom it's a key to Cosmic Balance meant to be whole Casmir lunged for her no the power is

mine but his hand passed through her as if she were made of light Mera smiled sadly at Grint I understand now what I must do what I was always meant to do with a gesture she Drew all the shards to her the cosmic energy surged enveloping her in a cocoon of Pure Starlight as she began to reforge the star her physical form started to dissolve meor no grent Cried Out reaching for her mera's voice came from everywhere and nowhere this is not an end but a new beginning for all of Us there was a blinding

Flash and then silence where mirror had been a perfect shimmering star hung in the air it Rose slowly passing through the ceiling and into the sky above as it ascended the unnatural Darkness receded the fractured Sky began to heal Cosmic energies be balancing across the lands Between in the days that followed the lands between saw many changes the Stars Ascension had ushered in a new age one of Hope and renewal grent inspired by mea's sacrifice took up a new mantle he traveled the land sword in hand protecting the weak and spreading the tale of the

starborn shepherd his eyes once haunted by Wars and Betrayals now shun with purpose Liza her faith transformed by what she had witnessed began to spread a new philosophy she spoke of a balance between Cosmic order and Free Will drawing from both her training as a finger maiden and the revelations of their Journey even Lord Casmir stripped of his immortality by the Stars Reforging found a measure of Peace the weight of endless years lifted he dedicated his remaining time to studying the [Music] cosmos seeking understanding rather than control across the lands between people looked to the

newly healed sky with Wonder the legend of mea the starborn shepherd spread far and wide it was said that on clear Nights a star Shone brighter than all others a Beacon of Hope and a reminder of the sh Shepherd who sacrificed everything to mend a broken world as the land healed and life flourished a new a delicate balance was struck between the cosmic forces and the will of Mortals the age of the starborn shepherd had Dawned bringing with it the promise of a future where the wonders of the cosmos and the potential of humanity could

co-exist in [Music] Harmony and somewhere in the vast expanse of the reforged star a Consciousness that was once mirror watched over the lands Between a silent guardian of the balance she had given everything to restore in far bygone days in the shadowed expanse of the northern lands between there lived a prosperous farmer known as Sir Eldred sir Eldred had seven sons and one daughter the youngest of these Sons bore a curious Name he was called m though most gave him the nickname of Ashen which meant he who grovels among the ashes perhaps Malin deserved his

name for he was a lazy boy who never engaged in the laborous tasks on the farm like his brothers did instead head he wandered about in tattered clothes and with unkempt hair his mind always filled with the Tales of trolls and Giants elves and goblins when the sun blazed hot in the long summer afternoons and the bees droned drows Alon was content to lie in the ash Heap letting the ashes sift through his fingers as one might play with sand on the seash shore basking in the sunshine and spinning stories to himself his Brothers toil

in hard in the fields would point at him with mocking fingers and laugh saying how well his nickname suited him and how little use he was in the world when they returned home from their work they would push him about and tease him and even his mother would make him sweep the floor draw water from the well fetch Pets from the Pete sack and do all the little odd jobs that no one else wanted to do thus poor Malin had a rather hard life and would often have been very miserable if it were not for

his sister who loved him very dearly she listened patiently to all his stories never laughing at him or calling him a liar as his brothers did but one day a sorrowful event beell Poor Malon it happened that King alri the ruler of these parts had one beloved daughter princess ioria to whom he denied nothing princess ioria in need of a waiting maid had once seen malin's sister standing by the garden gate as she rode by and had taken a fancy to her she asked her father if she might Invite the girl to come and live

at the castle and serve her King alri agreed at once as he always did to any of his daughter's wishes and so he sent a messenger to Sir eldred's house to request that his daughter come to the castle and be the princess's waiting maid sir Eldred was very pleased with The good fortune that had befallen his daughter and so was her mother and so were her six brothers all except poor Malin who looked with wistful eyes after his sister as she rode away proud in her new clothes and the shoes her father had made for

her from cowhide which she was to wear in the palace when she attended the prin Princess at home she always ran around Barefoot time passed and one day a writer came in hot haste through the countryside bearing the most terrible Tidings for the evening before some young Wanderers near the lake of leria had caught sight of the ELD worm which as everyone knows was the largest and most ancient of all Serpents it was said that this beast in the oldest texts was called the Leviathan and its length could span the breadth of the northern Wilderness

its head resting near the ancient ruins and its tail touching the farthest borders of the Misty swamps the wonderers had noticed this fearsome monster had its head turned towards the inhabited Lands and it opened its more and yawned horribly as if to show that it was hungry and that if it were not fed it would ravage every living thing upon the land both man and Beast bird and creeping thing for it was well known that its breath was so poisonous that it consumed as with a burning fire everything it touched if the terrible creature chose

To lift its head and exhale its noxious Vapors over the country within weeks the fair land would be turned into a region of desolation as you may imagine everyone was almost paralyzed with terror King alri called a solemn meeting of all his counselors and asked if they could devise any way of warding off the Danger for three whole days they sat in [Music] councel these grave bearded men and many were the suggestions made and many the words of wisdom spoken but alas no one was wise enough to think of a way by which the eldw

worm might be driven [Music] Back At Last At the end of the third day when everyone had given up hope of Finding a remedy the door of the council chamber opened and sorceress Morana the queen appeared now the Sorceress Morana was King alr's second wife and she was not a favorite in the Kingdom she was a proud and insolent [Music] woman who did not behave kindly towards Her stepdaughter princess [Music] ioria instead she spent much of her time in the company of eldrid the dark Sage a great sorcerer with whom everyone feared and dreaded the

court murmured disapprovingly as she boldly entered the Council chamber and Stood Beside the king's chair of State in a loud clear voice she addressed them thus you think yourselves brave and strong oh wise [Music] Elders fit to be the Protectors of the people and so it may be when facing mortal [Music] Foes but you are no match for the enemy that now threatens our land before it your weapons are but straw it is not through strength of arm but through sorcery that he will be overcome so listen to my words even though they may be

those of a woman and take counsel with a great sorcerer from whom nothing is hid who knows all the mysteries of the earth air and Waters of learia the king and his counselors did not like this advice for they dis despised the dark sorcerer eldrich believing that he had way too much influence over the queen yet being at their wit's end and knowing not where else to turn for Help they reluctantly agreed to summon the sorcerer when eldrich appeared in their midst they liked him none the better for his looks he was long thin and

all inspiring with a beard that reached his knees and H hair that wrapped around him like a mantle his face was as pale as mortar as if he had always lived in Darkness and fear the light of the sun yet no other help was to be found so they laid the case before him and asked what they should do he answered coldly that he would consider the matter and returned to the assembly the following day with his advice when they heard his Counsel it was enough to turn their hair white with horror for he declared

that the only way to satisfy the monster and save the land was to feed it every Saturday with seven young maidens the fairest that could be found if this remedy did not succeed in mollifying the eldw worm and inducing it to Depart he hinted at a second me meure so Dreadful he would not dare speak of it yet despite their hatred for him they feared him as well and the council had no choice but to abide by his words and pronounce the awful [Music] doom and so every Saturday seven Fair innocent maidens Were Bound by

hand and foot and laid on a great Stone outcropping by the lake of leria the monster stretched out its long Jagged tongue and swept them into its mouth while the rest of the folk watched from the safety of the nearby Cliffs at least the men watched the women hid their faces and WEP allow is there no other way they Cried no other way to save this land but the men only groaned and shook their heads no other way they answered no other way then suddenly a boy's indignant voice rang Out Among the crowd [Music] is

there really no grown man who would fight that Monster and kill it and save the maidens I would do it for I am not feared of the ELD worm it was of course Malin who spoke and everyone looked at him in amazement as he stood staring at the Great Serpent his fingers twitching with rage his eyes glowing with Pity and indignation the poor boy is mad the sight has turned him mad the people whispered to one another they would have crowded around him to pet and comfort him but his elder brother came and gave him

a heavy clout on the side of the head a likely story go home to thy Ash pit and stop speaking Nonsense his brother said taking malin's arm he drew him back to where his other brothers were waiting and they all went back home together but all the while Malon kept saying that he meant to kill the eldw worm eventually his brothers became so angry at what they thought was mere braging that they picked up Stones and pelted him so hard that he took to his heels and run away from them that evening the six brothers

were threshing corn in the barn and Malin as usual was lying among the ashes lost in his own thoughts his mother came out and bade him run and tell the others To come in for their supper the boy did as he was bid for he was a willing enough little fellow but when he entered the barn his brothers still angry from the afternoon set upon him they pulled him down and piled so much straw on top of him that had his father not come from the house to see what was delaying Them he would have

surely been smothered at the supper his mother quarreled with the other Lads for what they had done calling them cowards for setting upon a smaller and younger boy Marin looked up from his porridge and he said worry not mother for I could have fought them if I liked and I would have beaten them all too Why did you not do it then asked one of the brothers because I knew that I would need all my strength when I go to fight the [Music] elorm replied malen Gravely time passed and every Saturday seven women were offered

to the Eldor worm Until it was felt that this state of things could not continue for soon there would be no maidens left in the kingdom and so the elders met once more and in their desperation they summoned the sorcerer eldrich the dark [Music] Sage to ask what his other remedy Was eldrid with a knowing look stood before them and pretending to be very [Music] sorrowful declared that the only other thing that could be done was to offer Princess ioria to the elorm only then would it depart A terrible Stillness fell upon the council everyone

covered their faces with their hands for no man dared look at the king but although princess ioria was the apple of his eye King alri was a just and righteous Monarch he felt it was not right that other fathers should part With their daughters to save the kingdom if his child was to be spared and so after speaking with the princess he stood before the elders and declared with a trembling voice that both he and she were ready to make the sacrifice she is my only child he said yet it seems good to both of

us that she should lay down her Life if by doing so she may save this land that she loves so well well salt tears ran down the faces of the great bearded men as they heard their King's words for they all know how dear princess ioria was to him but it felt that what he said was wise and true and that the thing was just and right For were better surely that one Maiden should die even of Royal Blood than that bands of other Maiden should go to their death week by week or all to

no purpose amid heavy sobs the Aged lman Rose to pronounce the princess's Doom but before he could speak the king's Kerman a warrior of great Renown stepped forward the ELD worm is a formidable fo he declared and this Doom which our lman is about to [Music] pronounce is indeed a harsh one if I had my way there would be a condition attached if the old worm does not depart Swiftly after consuming the princess the next offering should not be another innocent Maiden but the old sorcerer himself at his words a great shout of approval erupted

and the wicked eldrich seemed to shrink within himself his face growing even paler than [Music] before 3 weeks were Allowed between the time the Doom was pronounced upon the princess and the time it was to be carried out this was so the king might send ambassadors to all neighboring kingdoms to issue proclamations that if any Champion could drive away the elorm and save the princess he should have her for his wife and with Her he should have the [Music] kingdom as well as a very famous sword that was in the king's possession a sword that

had belonged to a great God with which he had vanquished all his [Music] foes the sword B or the name Elden blight and no man had any power against it the news of these events spread over the length and breadth of the Land and everyone mourned for the Fate likely to befall all the princess the farmer his wife and their six Sons mourned too all except Malin who sat among the ashes and said nothing when the king's Proclamation was made known throughout the neighboring kingdoms there was a fine stir among all the young Cant for

it seemed but a little thing to slay a monster and a beautiful wife a fertile Kingdom and a trusty sword are not to be one every day so 36 Champions arrived at the king's Palace each hoping to gain the prize but the king sent them all out to look at the elorm lying in the waters of leria with its enormous mouth Open when they saw it 12 were seized with sudden [Music] illness and 12 were so afraid that they took to their heels and ran never stopping until they reached their own kingdoms only some returned

to the king's Palace and these were so downcast at the thought of the task that they had no Spirit left in Them at all none dared try to kill the [Music] elorm so the 3 weeks passed Slowly by until the night before the day on which the princess was to be sacrificed on that night the king feeling that he must do something to entertain his guests made a great supper for them but as you may think it was a Dre Feast for everyone was thinking so much about the terrible thing that was to happen on

the tomorrow that no one could eat or drink when it was all over and everybody had retired to rest Save the King and his old keer the king returned to the Great Hall and went slowly up to his chair of state it was not like the chairs of state that you might think of it was nothing but a massive Chest in which he kept all the things he treasured most the old Monarch undid the iron bolts with trembling fingers lifted the lid and took out the wondrous sword Elden blight which was said to have once

belonged to a great God his trusty kemperman who stood by him in a 100 fights watched him with pitying Eyes why take out the sword my Lord when your fighting Days Are Over you fought bravely in the past when your arm was strong but now at your age it's time to leave such work to younger men the Old King turned on him angrily with something of the old fire in his eyes quiet Yourself or else I'll turn this sword on you do you think I can see my only child devoured by a monster and not

lift a finger to try and save her when no other man will I tell you and I swear it with my tooth thumbs crossed on Elden blight at both the sword and I will be destroyed before even one hair on her head is touched so Go if you care for me old friend and order my boat to be ready with the sail set and the prow pointed out to the lake I will go myself and fight the elorm and if I do not return you must guard my cherished daughter perhaps my life May redeem [Music]

hers that Night everybody at the farm went to bed early for the next morning the whole family was to set out early to the cliffs overlooking the lake of Leia to see the princess given to the eldw worm all except Malin who was to be left at home to her the goats the young lad was so vexed by this for he had great schemes in his Head that he could not even sleep as he lay tossing and turning about in his Corner among the ashes he heard his father and mother talking in the great box

bed and as he listened he found that they were having an argument it's such a long way to the cliffs overlooking the lake I fear I'll never walk it said his Mother I think I should stay at home no replied her husband that would look strange when all the countryside is to be there you shall ride behind me me on my good spectral Steed I do not care to trouble you to take me behind she answered when I want the Ste to stand I give it one clap on the left shoulder when I would have

it go like Any another horse I give it two claps on the right but when I wanted to fly like the wind I Whistle through the windpipe of a goose and as I never know when I might need to gallop like that I always keep the bird's windpipe in the left hand pocket of my coat so that's how you manage the Beast said the farmer's wife and that's what becomes of all my Goose wind pipes oh you are a clever fellow Goodman and now that I know I can sleep easy Malin was not tossing about

in the ashes now he was sitting up in the darkness with glowing cheeks and sparkling eyes his opportunity had come at last you waited patiently till their heavy breathing Told him that his parents were sound asleep then he crept over to where his father's clothes were took the Goose's windpipe out of the pocket of his coat and slipped quietly out of the house once he was out he ran like lightning to the stable he saddled and bridled the spectral Ste threw a halter around its neck and led it to the stable door the good Steed

unaccustomed to its new groom pranced reared and plunged but Malin knowing his father's secret clapped it once on the left shoulder and it stood as still as Stone then he mounted it gave it to claps on the right Shoulder and the Steed trotted off briskly giving a loud nay as it did so The Unwanted sound ringing out in the Stillness of the night roused the household the father and the six Sons came tumbling in down the wooden stairs shouting to one another in confusion that someone was stealing the spectral Steed the father was the first

to reach The door and when he saw in the Starlight The Vanishing form of his favorite mount he cried at the top of his voice stop that Thief when the spectral Ste heard that it pulled up in a moment all seemed lost for the father and his sons could run very fast indeed and it seemed to Malin sitting motionless on the ste's back that they would very soon catch up to him but luckily he remembered the Goose's windpipe he pulled it out of his pocket and whistled through it in an instant the Steed bounded forward

Swift as the wind and was over the hill and Out Of Reach of its Pursuers before they had taken 10 steps more day was Dawning when the boy came within the sight of Lake Leia and there in the water lay the enormous monster he had come to slay anyone would have said he was mad to even dream of making such an attempt for he was but a slim unarmed youth and the eldw worm was so Vast that men said it could Circle the world its tongue was Jagged at the end like a fork and with

this Fork it could sweep whatever it chose into its mouth and devour it at its leisure for all this Malin was not [Music] afraid for he had the heart of a hero underneath his tattered Garments I must be cautious he said to himself and do by my wits what I cannot do by my strength maon climbed down from his seat on the spectral steeds back tethered the seed to a tree and walked on looking well about him until he came to to a little cottage on the edge of a Wood the door was not locked

so he entered and found its occupant an old woman fast asleep in bed he did not disturb her but took down an iron pot from the the shelf and examined it closely this will serve my purpose he said surely the old Dame would not Grudge it if she knew it was to save the Princess's life then he lifted aive Pete from the smoldering fire and made his way down to the water's edge there he found the king's boat lying guarded only by a single Boatman with its sail set and its prow turned in the direction

of the elorm it's a cold morning said Malin are you not frozen sitting there if you come ashore and run about to warm yourself I will guard the boat till you [Music] return The Boatman frowned what would the king say if he were to come as I expect every moment he will and find me playing myself on the sand and his good boat left to a Scamp like you it would be as much as my head is Worth as you wish Malin answered beginning to search among the rocks in the meantime I must look for

some muscles to roast for my breakfast after he had gathered the muscles he began to make a hole in the sand to put the live Pete in The Boatman watched him curiously for he too was beginning to feel hungry Presently the lad gave a wild shriek and jumped high in the air gold gold he cried by the name of the earth tree who would have looked to find gold here this was too much for The Boatman forgetting all about his head and the King he jumped out of the boat pushed Malin aside and began to

scrape among the sand With all his might while he was doing so Malin jumped into the boat pushed off and was half a mile out on the lake before the outwitted man who needless to say could find no gold noticed what had happened of course he was very angry and the old King was more Angry still when he came down to the shore attended by his Nobles and carrying the great sword Elden blight in the vain hope that he poor old feeble man that [Music] was might somehow defeat the monster and save his daughter but

to make such an attempt now was beyond his power for the boat was gone so he could only stand on the shore Along with a fast assembling crowd of his subjects and watch what would be and this was what befell Alin sailing slowly over the waters and watching the elorm intently noticed that the terrible monster yawned occasionally as if longing for its weekly Feast as it yawned a great flood of water went down its throat and came out again at its huge gills so the brave lad took down his sail pointed the prow of his

boat straight at the monster's mouth and the next time it yawned he and his boat were sucked right in and went straight down its throat into the dark regions inside its body on and on the boat Floated but as it went the water grew less pouring out of the eldw worm's [Music] gills till at last it stuck on what seemed like dry land Malin jumped out iron pot in hand and began to explore presently he reached the enormous creatures Liver remembering that a BEAST's liver is full of oil he made a hole in it and

placed the line Pete inside instantly a massive fire ignited Malin barely made it back to his boat in time as the ELD worm's violent convulsions hurled the boat out of its mouth Landing it high and dry on the shore The chaos in the water was so intense that the king and his daughter who had come down to the shore dressed in white ready to be sacrificed to the monster and all his courtiers and Country folk were forced to retreat to the hilltop out of Harm's Way and watch what unfolded next the poor distressed creature pitied

now despite being great and Cruel thrashed about twisting and writhing in agony as it flung its massive head out of the water its tongue fell out and struck the Earth with such force that it created a huge dent which quickly filled with water forming the Crooked Straits that now divide Leonia from the Altus [Music] Plateau then some of its teeth fell out and settled in the water becoming small Islands when at last it was plainly seen that the El worm was dead the king could scarcely contain himself with joy he put his arms around balon's

neck kissed him and called him his son he took off his own Royal mantle and put it on the Boy gered his good sword Elden brigh around his waist and called his daughter to him he put her hand in malin's and declared that when the right time came she should be his wife and that he should be the ruler over all the kingdom then the whole company mounted their steeds again and Malin rolled on the spectral Steed by the princess's Side and so they returned with great joy to the king's Palace but as they were

nearing the gate malin's sister who was the princess's maid ran out to meet him and signaled to the princess to lean down and whispered something in her ear the princess's face grew dark and she turned her horse's head and rolled back to where her father was with his [Music] Nobles she told him the words that the maiden had spoken and when he heard them his face too grew as black as Thunder for the matter was this the cruel Queen full of joy at the thought that she was to be rid once of all of her

stepd daughter had been making love to the wicked Sorcerer all the morning in the king's absence he shall be killed at once cried the Monarch such Behavior cannot be overlooked you will have trouble finding him your majesty said the girl for it is more than an hour since he and the queen fled together but I can find him declared malrin and he sped off like the wind on The spectral Steed it was not long before he came within the sight of the fugitives and he drew his sword and he shouted for them to stop they

heard the shout turned around and laughed when they saw that it was only the boy who gruel in ashes the insolent brat I will cut off his head for him I will teach him a lesson cried the sorcerer And he rode boldly back to meet Malon for although he was no fighter he knew that no ordinary weapon could harm his Enchanted body therefore he was not afraid but he did not come on Malon having the sword of a great God with which he had slain all his enemies before this magic weapon the dark Sorcerer was

powerless with one thrust the young lad ran it through his body as easily as if he had been an ordinary man and he fell from his horse dead then the courtiers of the king who had also set off in Pursuit but whose steeds were less Fleet of foot came up and seized the bridal of the Queen's Horse leading it and its Rider back to the Palace she was brought before the council judged and condemned to be shut up in a high tower for the remainder of her life as for Malon when the proper time came

he was married to the princess with great feasting and great rejoicing and when the Old King died they ruled the Kingdom for many many a long year long before the shattering that Sunder the lands between there existed a realm of Otherworldly Beauty and unfathomed Peril the Elden ring a sacred artifact of immense power held sway over this Fantastical domain and the demigods who ruled it as its vassals were beings of Godlike might And ambition but the Elden ring was not unbreakable and in a cataclysmic event that would come to be known as the shattering it

was broken into fragments the demigods consumed by their lust for power waged a catastrophic war that rent the very fabric of reality in the wake of this apocalyptic conflict the lands between fell into chaos From the Ashes of this once Resplendant realm arose the tarnished individuals who had been banished from the lands between in ages past now given a chance at Redemption and a sentence these outcasts each bearing the burden of a unique curse sought to claim the shards of the Elden ring and restore order to the fractured [Music] World and in a small forgotten

Hamlet nestled on the fringes of the lands between there lived a man who had three sons they were tarnished and like their father before them eeking out a meager existence in a world that had long since turned its back on their kind the father once a proud knight in service to a now fallen demigod had little left to his name say For a few handful of relics from a bygone age but now the three brothers had heard the call of the Elden ring far from Beyond The Misty Veil that separated their Exile from the lands

between and they knew that their Destiny awaited them in that perilous Realm the eldest of the brothers was a warrior of unparalleled might he was hardened by a lifetime of battle and his Spirit tempered by the Forge of adversity the second brother was a mage of Arcane Brilliance his mind a light with the eldric secrets of sorcery and his soul attuned to the Unseen current of Magic the youngest of the brothers was a hunter his senses sharpened to a Razor's Edge and his heart imbued with an uncanny connection to the beasts of the wild as

the eldest son grew into a Strapping young man he saw the p y that gripped his family and the hopelessness that haunted his father's eyes he knew that there was no future for him in this desolate place no means of making a livelihood amidst the ruins of a shattered realm and so he resolved to to strike out on his own to seek his fortune in the wide and Perilous World beyond the Hamlet's borders and so it is said that the young man went to his father and he said father I cannot bear to see our

family languish in this Purgatory any longer grant me a spirit Steed to carry me across the vast distances a phantom wolf to hunt beside me and a spectral Hawk to soar above me with these Companions I shall Venture Into the Heart of the lands between and carve out a new Destiny for myself the father his heart heavy with the knowledge of the dangers that awaited his firstborn nonetheless knew that he could not deny him this chance for in the lands between even the lowliest of the tarnished could rise to Greatness if They possessed the strength

cunning and fortitude to seize it and so it is said he bestowed upon his son the relics he had requested a spectral Steed Phantom wolf and a ghostly Hawk each imbued with a fragment of the ancient magic that had once aused the realm with his Spirit Companions and at his side the eldest son set out on his Journey riding across the vast and haunted expanses of the lands between he traversed Mist shrouded mountains and glands that echoed with the Lamentations of the Dead ever seeking a path that would lead him to his Destiny but as

night fell and the Shadows deepened the young man found himself lost in a thick dark wood the trees press close on all Sides the gnarled branches reaching out like clawing fingers to snatch at his spectral Steed Flags no matter which which way he turned no path presented itself and soon the tarnished was forced to confront the Grim reality that he was well and truly lost in this Labyrinth as the eldest son contemplated this predicament he knew that he could not Wander the haunted wood indefinitely his Spirit Steed though untiring needed some rest and he could

feel the weight of exhaustion pressing down upon him he resolved to find a suitable place to make camp for the night hoping that the Dawn would bring with it a clearer path but just as he was about to Dismount and tether his Ste to one of The garl trees a flicker of light caught his eye it was a faint ghostly Radiance shimmering in the distance like a Willow the Wisp INRI the young man urged his Ste forward picking his way through the Tangled undergrowth towards the source of the illumination and as he drew closer the

light grew Stronger and soon he found himself at the edge of a clearing that seemed to have been carved out of the very heart of this forest in the center of this Glade stood a magnificent Castle its walls of pale ethereal Stone glowing with an inner light that pulsed like a living heartbeat the windows were all lit up casting an eerie otherworldly Radiance across the surrounding Landscape the tarish rode up to the great door of the castle marveling at its intricate patterns and sigils that adorned its surface he raised a hand to knock the sound

echoing through the Stillness of the night like the tolling of a distant Bell but no answer came and the door remained firmly barred Undeterred the young man raised a hunting horn to his lips and blew a long clear note that seemed to hang in the air like a crystalline thread it was a call to the inhabitants of the castle a plea for shelter in the midst of this dark wood as The Echoes of the horn faded into silence the tarnish waited His heart pounding in his chest he knew not what manner of beings dwelt within

this strange and wondrous keep but he hoped they would hear his call and Grant him entry for in the lands between even the most unexpected of encounters could hold the key to one's destiny and the young man sensed that his fate was somehow intertwined with this enigmatic Castle as if in answer to his call the great door of the castle swung open of its own accord its hinges moving soundlessly despite their apparent age and weight the tarnish hesitated for a moment his hand resting on the hilt of his sword before cautiously crossing the threshold into

the enigmatic keep as he passed from room to Room the young man's Wonder only grew fires burned brightly in every Hearth casting flickering Shadows across the walls the walls adorned with intricate tapestries an ancient heraldry the air was suffused with a faint otherworldly scent like the memory of incense from a long forgotten ritual and in the Great Hall a plentiful Feast was laid out upon A massive Oaken table the dishes piled high with exotic meats strange fruits and aromatic Delicacies that he had never before encountered yet despite these signs of habitation there seemed to be

not a single soul present in the entire vast Castle no servants Scurry to attend to the fires or clear the tables no Nobles or courtier stroe the halls or whispered in shadowed Alcoves the castle was as silent as a tomb save for the soft crackling of the flames and the Eerie Whisper Of The Wind beyond the walls perplexed but grateful for the shelter the young man decided to lead his spectral Steed to the castle enormous Staples he tended to his Mount as best he could Whispering words of reassurance to the unearthly Creature before Gathering his

Phantom wolf and ghostly HW and making his way to the Great Hall there he partook of the strange Feast his hunger overcoming any trepidation he might have felt at the Castle's Eerie emptiness the food was unlike anything he had ever tasted both familiar and alien all at once and he felt a strange tingling warmth suffusing his limbs as he Ate once he had finished eating the tarnished moved to sit beside one of the great hearths Bing In the Heat of the flickering Flames he began to remove his damp travel stained garments laying them out to

dry upon the fla Stones as he pondered the mystery of this abandoned [Music] castle for surely he Thought there must be some purpose to his presence here some reason why the fates had led him to this strange and wondrous place and as he sat there in [Music] contemplation he could not shake the feeling that he was being watched by unseen eyes and that his every move was being carefully observed and judged by forces Beyond his K as the night grew long and the tarnished found himself nodding off beside the dying fire he began to contemplate

retiring to one of the bed Chambers but just as he was about to rise and make his way towards the stairs a deep chime echoed through the hall it was the tolling of a clock its face set into the very stones Of the wall and as the final stroke of midnight faded into silence a hidden door creaked open on the far side of the room through this portal stroe a being that seemed to embody the very essence of the Twisted eldrich nature of the lands between it was a crafted Scion a grotesque amalgamation of Flesh

and Souls the result of forbidden rituals and unspeakable sacrifices its body was a writhing mass of Limbs and torsos all fused together in a Blasphemous mockery of human form in one of its many hands it clutched a staff of gnarled pulsating wood a weapon that thrummed with malevolent power to the tarnished surprise the grafted Scion seemed Unsurprised by his presence as if it had been expecting him all along it lumbered across the hall with a twisted shambling gate settling itself on the opposite side of the Hearth and fixing its multitude of eyes upon the young

man for a long moment it simply stared its gaze seeming to Pier the very depths of the tarnished Soul at last it spoke its voice a cacophony of Whispers and moans that sent shivers down the young man's spine does thy spectral Steed ever kick and rear it us the tarnish nodded a flicker of unease passing through him I he Replied for is a wild and Untamed thing born of the ghostly Mists and imbued with the fury of the Grave a multi-layered grin split the grafted sion's faces I have some skill in taming such beasts it

said reaching up to pluck a long pulsating piece of tissue from its own mass of Flesh throw this over thy Mount and it shall trouble thee no more Something in the creature's voice compelled obedience and the young man found himself rising and making his way to the [Music] Stables the tissue clutched tightly in his fist he did as the grafted cion had instructed draping the fleshy strand over his spectral steed's neck before returning to the Great Hall no sooner had he seated himself Once more and the creature fixed him with its burning gaze once again

and what of thy Hound it [Music] grasped does it ever bear its fangs and snap at [Music] you the tarnish nodded once more a growing sense of unease coiling in his gut I he Said but is a Fierce and loyal companion but ill-tempered and quick to anger again the creature grinned plucking another strand of tissue from its body and holding it out to the young man cast this over the Beast it said and its Fury shall be quelled and so feeling as though he were moving in a dream the tarnish took the Tissue and did

as he was bitten draping it over his snarling Phantom [Music] wolf but still the creature was not done with him and thy haulk it asked its voice now little more than a Sinister whisper does it ever Peck and Claw at thee wild and untameable as the storms Above the young man could only nod his throat tight with fear I he managed for is a creature of the wild winds and fierce SK ill suited to the confines of the hood and Jess for a third time the grafted Scion plucked a tissue from its mass holding it

out to the tarnish with a twisted layer place this upon its breast it Commanded and it shall trouble thee no more with trembling fingers the young man took the tissue and stumbled out to the Courtyard where his ghostly haulk perched draping the pulsating strand over its spectral plumage but as he turned to make his way back to the Great Hall he found the grafted Zion looming over him its multitude of eyes blazing with malevolent Glee and before the tarnished could react the creature lashed out with its gnarled staff striking him a blow to the temple

that sent him crumpling to the flax Stones as Darkness closed cled in around him he saw his faithful companions his spectral Steed his Phantom wolf and his ghostly Hawk toppling to the ground beside him their forms going slack and lifeless as if turned to Stone and as he slipped into unconsciousness the young man realized the true nature of the grafted Scion's power for the creature had not merely offered to tame his unruly beasts it had worked some dark and terrible magic upon them stealing away their very essence and leaving them as cold and empty as

the grave and for now it Seemed the same face had befallen the tarnished himself his quest cut short by the might of this Twisted creature time passed by and the Second Son restless and unsatisfied with his lot in life came to his father with the same request his elder brother had made he saw a spectral Steed a phantom wolf and a ghostly Hawk so that he might venture out into The lands between and seek his own fortune and once again the old man his heart heavy with the loss of his firstborn reluctantly granted his second

son's wish bestowing upon him the same uncanny companions that had accompanied his brother and so the Second Son set out following in his Elder siblings footsteps and in time he too found himself lost in the same Twisted wood the path obscured by gnarled Branches and clinging Mists and like his brother before him he was drawn to the Eerie light that spilled from the windows of the ghostly Castle a promise of shelter and warmth amidst the chilling Darkness the Second Son entered the castle marveling at the empty halls and the uneaten feast that lay spread out

upon the table he sued and dried his clothes by The Hearth just as his brother had Done and when the grafted Sion creature appeared the young man found himself transfixed by its malevolent gaze the creature questioned him just as it had questioned his brother seeking dominion over the young man's spectral companions does thy Ste kick and rear it us does thy Hound bear its fangs and snap does thy Hawk Peck and Claw wild and [Music] Untamed to each question the Second Son gave the same answers as his brother had for his companions were just as

Fierce and unruly and each time the crafted zon plucked a pulsating piece of tissue from his own flesh and handed it to the young man commanding him to drape it over his Steed his wolf and his Hawk the Second Son did as he was bitten and took the fleshy strands and laid them upon his spectral Companions and as he did so he felt a strange lethargy creep over him a sense of his own will and vitality draining Away by the time he realized his Peril it was too late the grafted Zion loomed over him its

Myriad of eyes gleaming with malevolent Triumph it raised its gnarled staff and with a single brutally efficient blow struck the young man down just as it had struck down his elder brother as Darkness closed in around him the second son saw his spectral companions crumble to the ground beside him the grafted zon's dark magic having drained the very essence from their being and with his last fleeting thoughts the young man cursed his own Foolishness and prayed that his youngest sibling Now The Last Hope of their d Ling family would fa better than he had and

so the second son was lost another victim of the Twisted creature that lurked within the ghostly Castle his fate like that of his eldest brother served only to deepen the mystery and Peril that hung over the Lands between as the moons waxed and wained over the lands between the youngest of the Three Brothers grew increasingly troubled by the absence of his Elder siblings they had set up out on their quests long ago seeking fortune and glory in the Twisted Wilds but no word of their Fates had ever returned to their father's Hall and at Last

the young man could bear the uncertainty no longer he went to his father now grown old and frail and beged to leave to seek out his brothers to bring them home or avenge their fall the old man his heart heavy with grief and longing gladly granted his youngest son's request he bestowed upon him a spectral Steed of his own a phantom wolf to hunt at his side and a ghostly Hawk to soar above him each creature imbued with the same uncanny power as those that had accompanied his brothers armed with these loyal Companions and his

own quick wits the young tarnished set out into the Mist shrouded wilderness as night fell he found himself standing before The same ghostly castle that had ens snared his brothers its Eerie light spilling out into the darkness of the woods but where his siblings had been lured in by the promise of warmth and shelter the youngest brother was weary he liked not the emptiness of the Halls the uneaten feast laid out upon the table and most of all he liked not the Twisted form of the grafted zon that greeted him by the hearth when the

creature questioned him about his spectral Steed the young man answered briefly and carefully feigning agreement when the Scion offered one of its own pulsating pieces of tissue to the tame beast but instead of draping the fleshy strand over his Mount the tarnish mely pretended to do So keeping the tissue hidden in his hand at the first opportunity he cast it into the fire where it burst into flame with a hiss what's that fizzling noise asked the grafted cion its Myriad of eyes narrowing with suspicion is but the sap of the Greenwood the young man replied

his tone careless and unbothered as he reached out to stroke His Phantom Wolf's spectral fur the grafted cion seemed satisfied with his answer and paid no mind to the similar sounds that followed when the tarnish cast the tissues meant for his hound and Hawk into the Flames but the young man could feel the creature's malevolent gaze upon him could sense its mounting frustration as he refused to succumb to its Twisted magic at last the grafted Zion could Stand it no longer believing the tarnish to be as helpless as his brothers had been it lunged across

the Hearth its snarled staff raised to strike a [Music] blow but the young man had been watching waiting for this moment he let out a sharp piercing whistle and in an instant his spectral companions sprang To his defense his Steed came thundering in from the Staples hoofs lashing out with ethereal Fury his Phantom wolf leapt from its place by the fire spectral fangs bared in a snarl and and his ghostly Hulk though from above its perch on his shoulder Talons outstretched and eyes blazing they fell upon the grafted zon As one a whirlwind of fang

and Claw and thrashing Hooves and the creature let out a howl of Rage as found itself beset on all sides the battle was fierce but brief and for the grafted Zion with all its might it was no match for the combined Fury of the tarnished and his loyal companions in the end the creature lay Lifeless upon the flax Stones its gnarled staff fallen from its lifeless grasp breathing hard the young man reached down and took up the staff feeling its power thrum through his fingers armed with this new found weapon and the knowledge of his

brother's fate he set out to explore the rest of the [Music] castle determined to uncover its secrets and lay his sibling spirits to rest for he knew that in the lands between even death was not always the [Music] end and that with courage cunning and the strength of one's allies even the darkest of Fates could be overcome as he delv deeper into the keep's winding Passages he found himself in a series of dark and dreary dungeons in one of these stank cells he discovered his two brothers lying side by side their Spirits seemingly fled from

their mortal [Music] shells the young tarnish was not one to accept defeat so easily he touched the gnarled staff to his brother's still Forms and in and instant a surge of energy coursed through their bodies their eyes snapped open and they sprang to their feet life and vigor restored by The Strange Magic of the grafted zon's Weapon heartened by this miraculous reunion The Three Brothers pressed on exploring the remaining dungeons with renewed Purpose in another cell they discovered their spectral companions the Ethereal steeds Phantom wolves and ghostly Hawks that had been drained of their Essence

by the crafted Scion's dark magic once again the youngest brother touched the staff to their lifeless forms and once again the creatures stirred and Rose the spectral body suffused with renewed Vitality as they searched the final dungeons the brothers discovered a hidden Trove of treasure great chests filled with golden ruins shimmering smithing stones and other Priceless artifacts from the age before the shattering it was a fortune beyond their wild streams enough to secure their fam's prosperity for generations to come their Quest complete and their Fallen companions restored the three brothers buried the remains of the

grafted Zion within the Castle's crumbling walls sealing away the Twisted creatures power forever they claim the keep as their own a Bastion of light and hope amidst the dangers of the land between and so it is said two of the brothers rode out to bring their aging father to this new Home where they could all live in comfort and safety guarded by the Castle's ancient magic and the strength of their own unbreakable Bond and there they remained the tarnish brothers and their sire a days filled with laughter and love of a family reunited as for

the youngest brother the hero who had saved his Siblings and vanquished the grafted Zion he knew that his journey was far from Over the lands between still called to him its secrets and challenges beckoning like a siren song armed with the Nar staff and the knowledge of his own strength and cunning he set out once more into the mouded Wilds ready to face whatever trials lay ahead and So the tale of the Three Brothers comes to a close the Legacy secured with the reverence by the scatter survivors of the shattering there once lived a demigod

of terrible Renown said to have been a descent an of a greater outer God this demigod was known as Vrim and his very name struck fear into the hearts of all who dwelt within his domain unlike his Divine ancestor who was said to have been a being of capricious Mirth vgam was a twisted malevolent Soul his nature thoroughly corrupted by the powers that coursed through his [Music] veins he stood as a giant a towering figure of dread his Huge size and reputation alone enough to cow the surrounding lands into submission from his stronghold a grotesque

sprawling Fortress of blacken Stone and Jagged spires vgm held sway over a vast region of the lands between his greatest pride and Delight lay in the rearing of a monstrous herd of mutated swine Abomination birth From the Unholy Union of Flesh and Primal magic these beasts each a towering mass of bristling fur razor sharp tusks and insatiable hunger served as a Living testament to their Master's cruelty and power to manage this herd falam employed a group group of Beast Masters wretched Souls bound to his service by fear and dark sorcery yet even these Hardy servants

Could not control the swine alone for the beasts were as cunning as they were vicious in this task they were aided by the only creature that seemed to hold a place of favor in vm's Black Heart a great direwolf known as [Music] fangar fangar was a paragon among its kind a beast of enormous size and intelligence his coat was a shadowcloak Of deepest midnight his eyes twin pools of molten Amber that gleamed with a feral cunning trained by vgam himself the Dire Wolf was a loyal and lethal servant ever quick to obey his master's darkest

bidding under vgm and fangar's rule the one verdant region became a place of Shadow and despair its people little more to be used and Discarded at the demig God's whim between vram and fangore there existed an uncanny Bond a connection that transcended the boundaries of Master and Beast it was as if some dark magic had woven the their very Essences together when the demigod and his direwolf took to the field together the very Earth seemed to tremble beneath their tread and the hearts of all who beheld Them were filled with a primal unshakable dread one

fateful day as vgm strove through a verdant Valley nestled in the heart of of his domain fangore padding silently at his heels They Came Upon a small gathering of Nomads a tribe of Wanderers who eak out a meager existence on the fringes of the demig God's realm the sight of these free folk with Their humble herd of goats and the makeshift shelters filled vrim with a seething rage in his Twisted mind the very notion that anyone dared to exist outside his iron control was an unforgivable affront a challenge to his divine right to dominate all

that lay within his grasp with a snarled command he Unleashed fangore upon the Hapless snomad his voice laced with a malevolent Glee in a flash of midnight fur and gleaming the Dire Wolf lunged forward a living missile of fang and Claw fangore moved among the panicked goats with a Savage Grace his powerful jaws snapping shut through it all vgam looked on with a vicious smile playing upon his Lips his eyes Al light with a malicious Joy he urged Fango on with harsh barks of encouragement so engrossed was the demigod in his cruel sport that he

scarcely noticed the approach of a solitary figure a young Maiden with hair the color of Spun gold and eyes with unshed tears she stumbled towards him her hands ringing in Despair at last she flung herself at fal's feet her voice rising in a desperate plea as she begged him to call off his fell beast and spare what remained of her people's humble flock for a moment moment valkum regarded the girl with a mix of surprise and disdain his brow furrowing at The Audacity Of This frail creature who Dared to interrupt his Savage [Music] rry yet

even in his blackened heart there stirred the faintest flicker of intrigue a dark fascination with the maiden's comely form and the delicious desperation that poured from her imp palpable waves my Lord the maiden cried out I beseech you spare what remains of our Flock these humble beasts are all that stand between my father and starvation have mercy I am implore you and call off your Beast Val regarded the girl with a mix of astonishment her boldness in the face of his terrible might a thing rarely witnessed in his Grim domain yet rather than stay his

hand her Defiance only served stoke the Flames of his Cruelty Fanning them to new and terrible Heights and with a contemptuous sneer he lashed out with one armored boot catching the maiden and sending her sprawling to the ground a sharp whistle brought fangore bounding back to his master's side at vm's command the Beast lunged once more into The Fray his powerful jaws snapping shut the maiden her body racked with sobs of Grief could only watch on helplessly as the Dire Wolf continued his Grizzly work yet even in the depths of her anguish vgam found himself

drawn to the maten once more in his mind a new and Insidious desire began to take hold a hunger that had little to do with the thrill of the hunt or the joy of the want destruction reaching down with one one massive gauntleted Hand a demigod seized the maiden by the wrist holding her to her feet his fingers closed around her slender frame like a vice the metal of his armor biting into a soft yielding flesh layering down at his captive prize vgam let his other hand roam across her body savoring the delicate texture of

her skin but the maiden even in the grip of her Terror possessed a Fierce and unyielding spirit with a burst of desperate strength she wrenched herself free from vm's GR ASP and headed towards the shelter of a nearby group of Twisted trees vgam his face contorting in Rus of rage and thwarted lust leted out a Bellow of Fury that shook the very Earth beneath his feet ignoring the protests of his armor he gave Chase his thunderous strides eating up the ground between himself and his prey yet for all his terrible might the girl's desperate speed

and the treacherous terrain conspired against him allowing her to maintain a slim but steadfast lead realizing that he could not overtake her before she reached the dubious safety of the woods vrim called once more to fangore his voice harsh and Laden with a Terrible promise of violence the direwolf Whirled and bounded after the fleeing Maiden its powerful lens carrying him across the distance with terrifying F in speed the girl hearing the direwolf's approach glanced back over her shoulder her eyes widening in Star Terror as she beheld the midnight form of her pursuer in a lost

desperate Gambit she veered to the side just as Fangar lunched at her scrambling in the dirt her fingers closed around a jacked Stone and as the direwolf wheeled to strike her again she brought the rock down upon his muszle with all the strength born of desperation and the will to survive fangore recoiled with a Yelp of pain and surprise the sudden unfamiliar sensation of vulnerability flooding his predatory Mind weily he circled the Fallen Maiden his fangs Beed in a menacing snarl but made no further move to attack even vm's Furious commands seemed to fall upon

deaf ears the direwolf's confidence shaken by this unexpected turn of events yet the demig God's Wrath could not be so easily thwarted closing the distance to the stricken girl in a few immense Strides he towered over her prone form in one hand he hefted his immense battle axe the weapon Keen Edge glinting in the fading light with a roar of Primal Rage he brought the blade down the key Edge cleaving the maiden's skull in an instant the light of Life fled from her eyes her body going limp as her spirit fled its shattered Mortal vessel

vrm his chest heing with exertion and his face Twisted in a mask of cruel satisfaction planted one armored boot upon her lifeless form turning away he let out a sharp [Music] whistle summoning fangar back to his side as he stroe off into the Gathering Gloom word of the demig God's latest atrocity spread like wild fire throughout the surrounding Lads the tale of the maiden's death and the callous Slaughter of her trib's goats send a fresh wave of Terror Rippling through the populace though vm's cruelty was already Legend this new Act of savagery plumbed depths of

depravity that left even the most Hardened Souls reeling with shock and disgust mark my words whispered the people their voices heavy with Dread a reckoning will come for vgm no beast in human form can commit such evil and escape the Judgment of the Gods and though none dared speak it aloud in the secret corners of their hearts they clung to the faint and desperate hope that someday somehow the demigod would be made to pay For his wickedness and the Justice Long denied would be at last served and so it is said that in the days

that followed vgam returned to his usual cruel regime each morning he summoned his Beast Masters to parade his mutated swine before him the creature Crees marching in Twisted pairs under the watchful eye of [Music] Fango despite their vast number the demigod knew each Beast by sight his Keen gaze appraising their growth and vigor and on one fateful day as the procession of Abominations passed before their master a lone boore caught vm's eye its usual companion nowhere to be seen enraged the demig gon bellowed for the Beast Masters to double back and present the herd a

new but still the missing Beast did not appear rounding on fangar valkrum lashed out with a vicious kick his armored boot crushing against the direwolf's flank you gross slck in your duties he snarled his voice dripping with Menace find the Stray or face the consequences of your failure Fang m is fangs Beed in a submissive Grimace slunk away to obey his master's command leaving the Beast Masters to tremble beneath vr's baleful glare bring me the boore the demigod growled or I'll Flay the lot of you and leave your carcasses for the crows as the Beast

Masters turn to begin their search a mournful howl split the air the sound of fangar's distress carrying across the blighted Landscape VC his curiosity peaked set off in the direction of the noise his immense strides outpacing his servants with ease the sight that greeted him sent a fresh wave of Fury surging through his [Music] veins there lying amidst the Twisted roots of a garl tree lay the carcass of the missing Boar a single Arrow protruding from its heart Fango crouched nearby his posture a mix of fear and Grim loyalty vm's Roar shook the very Foundation

of the earth his eyes blazing with murderous intent I know not whose hand loosed this shaft he snarled but I swear I'll find the wretch and tear the offending limb from their body rounding once more on Fango the demigod aimed a brutal kick at the dire Wolf's ribs his words dripping with Venom useless Beast you failed in your charge and for that you'll pay hoisting the B's carcass onto his broad shoulders vrim stormed off fangore his Spirit cowed by his master's wrath slunk away into the Shadows of the forest seeking solace in the same lonely

Place the murdered Maiden had met her Grim fate vulgrim summoned his Steward and issued a chilling decree send forth Messengers to every corner of my domain command every man who can draw a bow to present himself at the high cliff on the outskirts of my realm in 7 Days time those who dare to defy me shall face the full measure of my wrath for I will not rest until I have Found the wretch who slew my pride bore as word of the summon spread a palpable fear gripped the populace each person dreading What secrets their

neighbors might divulge under Jess the days crept by and fgm's impatience festered fueled by Fang Moore's continued absence stalking his battlements the demigod spied a familiar Shape moving amidst the [Music] trees the Dire Wolf a sole creature for whom he had ever felt a glimmer of genuine affection vgm called out his voice carrying across the blighted landscape Fang Mo to me you ungrateful cerr though the direwolf's ears pricked up in recognition the Beast remained rooted in Place refusing to heed his master's command enraged by this Final Act of defiance V snatched up his great bow

and loosed an arrow the shaft finding its Mark in Fang's heart the direwolf crumbled to the ground his life eing away in the same spot when the maiden had met her Doom when the appointed day arrived the populace gathered before the Lord trembling beneath his baleful Glare vgm brandished the arrow that F his bore and bellowed which of you loose this accursed shaft speak and your death shall be swift met with only stubborn fearful silence the demig God's Fury reached New Heights three times he repeated his question and three times the crowd remained mute their

faces Ashen with Dread so oh you dare defy me vrim snarled his eyes blazing with malevolent fire you think to Shield the culprit with your silence then I shall loosen your tongues be gone all of you but return on the tomorrow each with your youngest child in toe we shall see how many of you remain steadfast in your Defiance your babes bear the brunt of my Wrath as the ashen-faced crowd stood paralyzed a single voice Rose above the silence that of an aged hermit his beard gray and his eyes filled with Steely contempt vile Tyrant

the old man spoke what do you intend with these innocent babes vm's laughter was cruel and mocking you dare question me old fool I hold the power of life and death over All in this realm mind your tongue or your gray hair shall not serve you from my anger undaunted The Hermit pressed on is that all the answer you can muster you brutish fiend it is all the answer your kind deserves VM spat unless you wish to join the babes in their fate the old man took a step Forward his gaze locked with the demig

gods heed my words for I speak only Truth for tomorrow is the day sacred to your Divine ancestor of the outer Gods is it not vulgrim shook his head the old man continued if on that hallowed day you spill even a single drop of innocent Blood or cause one babe to cry out in fear then Mark me dead or alive you shall never set foot again within your precious stronghold a ripple of Hope passed through the gathered throng Whispers spread in of the hermit's reputed gift of foresight vrim however merely sneered in contempt crawl back

to your H you daughtering Old Goat tomorrow you shall bear witness to The fate of those who Dare Challenge my will with that the Demi God turned his back on the assembly and strolled away leaving the people to dread what fresh Horrors the tomorrow would bring the dawn broke cold and gray casting misery over the lands as the men trudged up the slopes of the accursed Hill each with a babe or toddler clutched tightly in their Arms in their humble dwellings the wom folk wailed and lamented their hearts Shattered by the Grim fate that awaited

their innocent children falm purched high in his Tower gazed down upon the procession with a twisted sense of satisfaction as the tragic assembly gathered a flicker of surprise rippled through the crowd at the sight of the Aged hermit standing before Them his eyes filled with calm determination moving among the huddle masses he offered words of comfort and courage urging them to stand firm in the face of the demig God's cruelty fear not he murmured his voice AB bom to their troubled souls for no harm shall befall your little ones on this day high above Val

's gaze fell upon the Hermit his presence stoking the Flames of the demig God's rage as he prepared to descend and confront the assembly a steward burst into the chamber falling to his knees in supplication my Lord he gasped his voice trembling with fear I beg you show Mercy the ravens and crows they gather in vast numbers dark Omens of impending Doom and last night I dreamt a terrible dream his words were cut short by a vicious Blow from vm's armored boot the demig God's laughter cruel and mocking echoed through the chamber as he aimed

a second kick unbeknown to valkrum the steward though Gravely injured clung stubbornly to life hatred and fear long suppressed now boiled over in a desperate bid for Retribution staggering to the Great Hall he gathered nine heaping mounds of straw nine bundles of dried Heather and nine baskets filled with Pete with Trembling Hands he built a py in the center of the chamber setting it a light with a torch before fleeing into the Gathering Gloom praying that his actions might somehow thwart demig God's vile deeds and so falm made his way to the Summit his mind

a whirl with visions of the Carnage to come the first tendrils of smoke began to rise from the heart of his stronghold a harbinger of the cataclysm that was about to unfold as vrim stroe up the hillside his mind consumed by thoughts of Vengeance a series of grizzly discoveries shattered his FOC us barely nine Paces from his Stronghold lay the lifeless forms of nine mutated bores nine steps further another nine carcasses greeted his disbelieving eyes this pattern repeated itself all the way to the summit the demig God's rage mounting with each Revelation until Fury choked

his very breath at last he reached the assembled Throne his voice a strangled Bellow of Rage you dare defy me by the outer Gods your blood shall paint these slopes crimson and the birds shall Feast upon your flesh pausing to catch his breath vm's gaze fell upon the Aged hermit standing calm and Resolute before the cowering masses you there the demigod roared jabbing a finger at the old man come forth for and face me the Hermit his voice steady and clear replied if you wish to speak with me then you must come here I do

not fear you for your power has Wan if you doubt my words then look behind you vrim as curiosity peaked cast a glance over his shoulder from the heights of his stronghold nine tongues of lured flame licked at the Sky while nine Columns of oily smoke bowed forth staining the heavens the demig God's eyes wi with disbelief turned Crimson as he snatched up his battle axe preparing to strike down the hermit yet before the blow could land the weapon slipped from his grasp clattering to the ground as Terror drained the color from his face Because

there materializing from The Mists stood the spectral forms of the murdered maiden and the Fallen direwolf the maiden her Visage pale and ethereal regarded vgm with sorrowful eyes while at her side Fang moos strained against an unseen leash his spectral fangs Beed in a snarl of righteous Fury Falcon his knees turning to water stumbled backwards his gaze locked on the advancing apparitions the crowd their breath held in Collective anticipation watched as the demig God's Retreat carried him ever closer to the Cliff's Edge then the flick of her wrist the maiden released her hold on Fangar's

leash the spectral direwolf lunged forward latching onto valkrum with a sickening crunch a demigod his scream cut short by the crushing grip toppled backwards over the precipice the Phantom Beast still clinging to him as they plummeted into the abyss In the space of a heartbeat the scene had changed the stronghold the demigod and the Ghostly direwolf had vanished as if they had never been even the maiden had vanished and the old hermit too faded from sight a great Cry Of Joy erupted from the assembled throng as the men their hearts overflowing with relief and Gratitude

clutched their children tightly and hastened down the hillside eager to reunite their precious babes with the waiting arms of their mothers and so the tale of vrim came to an end the demig card's rain of terror snuffed out like a Candle in the Wind in the years that followed people would speak of this day in hush tones the voices filled with awe and Wonder the strange events that unfolded upon the slopes of that accursed hill but for those who had borne Witness to the demig God's fall the memory of that fateful day would forever be
