Theala Gethsymany
Hi there, my name is Theala Gethsymany. I would like to
tell you the tale of my adventures in finding Elanthia. It all started when was a wee
little girl. I lived in the village Loraine. My mother was a moon mage. MY father was a
drunken bard. I remember he used to sit in the tavern and drink all is gut could hold.
Then he would come home and plat endless music until he fell asleep. Sometimes I wondered
if drinking was what he lived for. One day my mother had a vision of an invasion to come
to our village. She went to the town priest with her vision and was tried before the Arch
Bishop as a heretic. She was burned to death in town square.
My mother's visions came to past and the village was destroyed. My brother Kwasind and I
hid and watched from the safety of the shadows while it happened. We watched in horror as
our Father was slain before our eyes. I remember the pain I felt to this day. When all was
said and done, We fled from our village in search of a better life. We walked for days on
end until we came to an ogre village. They were a barbaric race and my brother quickly
caught on to their way of life. They made us work very hard. Gathering grain and wood for
firs and bow making. We lived in the village among the ogres for a few years, until we
decided that this wasn't where we wanted to live out our lives. And so we left in search
of something better.
My brother and I searched for what seemed to be an eternity and a day, until one day we
noticed a vast city at the horizon. We proceeded to our new found destination with the
swiftness of a wild cat, the hills and woods could not hold us from our destination until
we finally came to the town known as Crossing. Kwasind immediately joined the barbarian
guild. I wandered around the town until I came upon the moon mage guild. Trying to follow
in my mother's footsteps I lived in the moon mage guild for some time and finally realized
it wasn't my calling. I observed the city longer and came upon the paladin guild. I walked
inside and looked around. Something was calling me here. I went and spoke with the guild
leader Darius. When he told me about the guild and the life of the paladin , I knew
immediately that this was the life I was looking for. As a maiden of the Paladin guild, I
will travel the lands and rid Elanthia of all the monstrosities which will remove all hope
and optimism, from our once faithful Utopia, the boundless greed and corruption, and
senseless chaos will be crushed under my grasp and those of my guild to bring happiness
the souls of it's population. What awaits me now? Only destiny can decide that. For now
I'll just have to live life day by day. |
