~+~*the next thing you heard was a very loud ringing, followed by the sound of many feet against the hard stone floors. over the alarm, you could barely hear the shouts of the basilisks chasing you down- which was probably for the best, as you would likely be tempted to look back at them. you looked ahead and noted that you were being, litterally, dragged along behind the others. Sandreanne had grabbed Falcon's arm, and the dragon anthromorph had grabbed Vincent's when the scene began. before you knew it, you were flung through a door and were on the other side.*~+~
~+~*the next thing you remembered, you were waking up in the ruins of Morwin. you were right where Arafin's chambers had stood, now just a mass of stone and pillars. you looked around. Sandreanne was sleeping off to one side, a staff in her hand. she had apparently been keeping watch. you turned to another direction. all of the anthromorphic women were sleeping, the dragon watching over them- but he had also fallen asleep, leaning against a pillar. you continued to look around. the only person awake was the male warrior with the features of a feline. he was in the process of sharpening his spear when he noticed you were watching him. with a slight smile, he moved a bit closer and sat down.*~+~
please accept my apologies for the previous evening. we had been in there for some time, and out time was up.
~+~*he chuckled.*~+~
let me explain..... Sandreanne already told me that this is her Temple and that she pulled us into it, and where you will be going. well, she also said that you will be visiting Adeon's past, yes? because it is currently in ruin. well, that was our home. its downfall was very gradual, really. it started when the water supply was poisoned and the young General was taken away from us.
~+~*he sighed.*~+~
it was a very trying time. our princess, the Lady Kyndell, is a bit of a fortune teller. she told us that our time was up. we did not believe her at first, because it is a well known fact that the stones that the members of the royal family wear can recieve interferance from other places sometimes. it was about a year later that our trees began to die. the creatures that we defended, the Eppies, were dieing. our firlds withered, and the children were growing ill. this was not our downfall, however. we were attacked by our neighbors of Amroth, as they had recently been taken under the power of one named Kenya- who you probably know as the Sister of Ma'ar. anyways, long story short, we could not win. we pulled back to our inner sanctum and did the only thing that we could.
~+~*he glanced over at the women.*~+~
each of them belongs to a guild in our world. there are the Fire Maidens, who power the barriers and provide the magic to allow the fires that heated our homes and lanterns. that is the girl in red; her name is Xing. Xu, the one in green, is her half sister- the Earth Maiden, one of the many who kept our lands fertile. the one in blue is Chili, a Water Maiden- one who purified the drinking water and called rain. Ediel is the phoenix girl in the bright colors- a Flower Maiden, one who brings color to our world. the one in yellow is Meria, a Lightning Maiden- who, along with the others beside her, created our barriers and used the electical currents to make many of our transportation objects possible. the last one, the kitsune in the blue-green is a Wind Maiden called Kalyra. the Wind Maidens were responsible for powering our wind mills, keeping the wheather decent, things like that. the mouse anthromorph is Venan, a High Priest. he left a while ago to look for food. the dragon over there is Taran, my half brother. and, well, i'm Teyon. Taran and i are both warriors, entrusted to defend this group of Maidens.
~+~*he sighed.*~+~
when the attacks came, we had to flee. we put together groups, each consisting on one of each Maiden, possibly a priest or priestess, and at least five warriors to protect them. most of the Maidens were killed trying to escape, as were most of the priests and warriors. we lost three of our own, but we managed to protect the Maidens and Venan, so all is not lost. the origional plan was to send everybody out in different directions with the hope that we would all meet somewhere else in the future and be able to rebuild our society. anyways, what ended up happening... we were crossing through a place called Haen when a Basilisk spotted us. rather than killing us, he decided to bring us here- for 'protection' from those that hunted us. once they learned that the Guardians were watching ME specifically, they decided that they wanted that power for themselves.... it figures. when i was little, our five Guardians came to me. they promised to always be there, for me. they didn't appear to anybody else- they said that i would be special, needed in the future..... when i refused to tell the Basilisk Lords where they were living, they were going to start killing the Maidens off as a way to coax me into telling them. that was after about a week of torture all around our circle, mind you- we are all still quite exhausted. Chili would have been the first to die in the morning..... i can not thank you enough for releasing us..... you will never know how much it meant to us all.....
