CHAPTER IV: CURTAINS OF CHAOS - SIDE A: A WINTER'S TALE (5)

"Vecoria, may I ask you something?" exclaims Leyra,

"Tell me."

"Why don't you want to tell the story of the cataclysm?" Leyra says. "It's described there."

"Because it is too sad, my friend." says the woman. “It is the triumph of evil, the incessant battle of the shadows where they manage to dominate the terrain. It is not a story to tell; And if you deserve to know it, I shouldn't be the one to tell you about it. Your father should do it yourself. "

"Garellia, my father never speaks to me directly, as my faith is tested through his moves." exclaims Leyra. “And many times, these moves are used through people. Perhaps through you, he is the one who can express himself. "

"I was in Eleanor for ten years, and not once was the cause of the cataclysm mentioned," exclaims the woman. " The elves only speak of the victory and survival of the sacred princes, but not the cause of their exile. "

Vecoria looked sideways, and saw the writings again, and from her eyes emanated a watery memory that fell like tears of gloom and pain on the sacred books. She sat in one of the leather chairs, next to the daughter of the rivers: exiles in a lost corner on the nearby voices. Dusk was already falling, and the little light that came from the pristine skies was slowly dying out.

"Sit down, this story must end before the moons find their light" exclaims Vecoria. “In the ages of the second generation, there was an elf, whom I will only call by Ariadna, her birth name. This was the only daughter of the greatest King in the conglomeration of the five elven kingdoms. The kingdom of the north, south, east, west and the central kingdom; where her father lived. But something had not been born well in Ariadna's heart. She was a girl, and her wishes were evil. Her intentions were whimsical. Her feet trampled insects; he tortured small animals, and secretly enjoyed it. She was not a normal girl, she was not an ordinary girl "

"Elgoneth knew this, and was afraid of it, for her inheritance was not just anybody" exclaims Vecoria. “The kingdom of King Lon was the most powerful. And although her mind was the most vivid and intelligent; pride began to predominate in her heart, of so much power. And one night, after taking her anger out on her wife, Ariadna found a knife. A razor, cursed forever. "

“Between the night of darkness, and the whisper of coldness, Ariadna entered her father's room, while he was slowly combing his hair in front of a mirror. And from her back, stroking her hair, Ariadna buried the unfortunate razor in her father's neck. And she murdered the king of kings, the elf of all elves, in her own spoil, in her own castle. "

"How old was she?" Leyra asks.

"Nine;" Vecoria responds. "The cursed number of vulnerability, among all elves."

"Ariadna left her castle," Vecoria continued. “She was exiled from her kingdom, in the tragic and overwhelming night. The guards at all the entrances began to chase her, but she managed to slip away into the darkness of delirium and dementia. Among the forests of revenge and inanity. Her Harrisburgmence ran through the meadows. Her steps were cursed to the goddesses of the moon. And her acts were witnessed for life, among the currents of the darkest night. "

"The queen fainted and died of a heart attack as she faced the death of her loved one, and the murderous and exiled nature of her daughter." Vecoria continues. “The kingdom of was dissolved, and the tragedy spread to all parts of the north and south. Through all the seas of the east and west. Thus the northern kingdom, the Kingdom of Inhorem, requested their exile from the consulate, the exile from the council. Resigning only four kingdoms, and thus Lon's nephew, rose from the tragedy, and became the heir to the throne. One of the youngest in the history of elven culture. "

"What happened to the girl?"

"She was lost in curses, and lived in darkness, until she found a new family." Vecoria exclaimed. “She was raised by beasts of fire, whose powers were strange, and her lineage was considered strange and uncertain, as was her nature. She trained with them, and emerged with a singular sword, which treasured the unmatched might of her blood. It was in her lineage to belong to the art of war. "

“When she was twenty-two years old, she conquered one of the nearby elven villages, and made it a stronghold among the singular, under the pseudonym destitute and ruthless. A rimero later, she invaded the central kingdom, slaughtered her cousin, King Robelt, and established herself as the eternal mistress of the kingdom. "

"What?"

“As you hear it,” Vecoria exclaims. “She returned, and claimed her throne by right, and although the consulate detested her, the fear of her was even greater. So they allowed her to establish herself as the owner of all the meadows.

“Ariadna then evoked an empire, took over all the lands, became the queen of the race, and found a forced respect among all terrestrials. Its might was unmatched; her strength was abnormal, and currents of dark and adverse magic followed and aided her, for it fueled an evil and malicious intent. Dark energy manifested through her, but she was so intelligent that her mind was not dominated by it. She enjoyed chaos, and used it to her advantage. For fear did not consume her, she consumed fear. "

"What happened then?"

"She became the queen of all elves, and surprisingly, her empire turned out to be one of the most organized and largest in our culture." exclaims Vecoria. But greed dominated her heart, and her fear for ancient creatures began to inquire. Only one thing Ariadne feared more than anything, and that was the creatures of Elgoneth. Fate then aligned her, along with a new race of Earthlings. The Humans of the Advanced Tribulation; and as they were in the absence of a leader, this became the most powerful being of all time. Thus, I declare a war on Elgoneth, and all his divine creatures. "

“The evil death seized the sinister might of the elven queen. It began step by step, race by race, entity by entity. I exterminate the races of ancient eagles; continuing with the Nackluech. He used the hideous and ruthless underwater forces; the ships of might, and exterminated the Lermallan, even being at peace with their kingdom. They are even creating his own crown for him! "

"But where were the gods of the assembly?" Leyra exclaims, agitated.

"They were there, in each of the wars" exclaims Vecoria. “With every kingdom that fell, every deity that faded. Your father was losing strength, and despite all the threats and all the fissures and all the beasts that your father embodied, the fearsome queen overthrew them. "

"Inhorem was one of the last to fall, as she managed to infiltrate him, and discover all the secrets of the spells that protected the largest kingdom of the elves." Vecoria responds. “The elf used dark magic, and unlocked the spell of a rushing dragon, trapped by Queen Allanis. It destroyed its legendary protection, and caused the island to self-destruct. After there, nothing else is known. Only the princes survived, and secretly raised their first kingdoms, until the moment that the elf was consolidated as the queen of Inmaeh, "

"But what happened to her?"

"The Denerith says no more of it." exclaims Vecoria. “It is so strange, because the princes should not have survived if it emerged, and yet the elf and her kingdom disappear from all our writings. As if these had never existed, or had vanished somewhere. Some say that Elgoneth disintegrated them, but others say that this is impossible, since the god of creation had lost all his strength. The truth is that his empire ceased, and when it did, a new generation began. The third Age."

"But I don't understand, how is it possible that this woman will achieve so much power?"

"Because there was no leadership among the earthlings" exclaims Vecoria. “There was no connection between the leader, and the heavens. That is why you were created Leyra. To be that leader, that unites the terrestrial races. The Solarians, The Elves, The Humans, in a single union. Based on love for the created; based on love towards creation. You are the connection of the gods to the land Leyra. You are the salvation of the peoples, so that the ego and dominance do not fall again. Lest the flames of greed consume the meadows of this land again. "

Vecoria looked to the side; the afternoon was already present. The sun seemed to lose its dominance and its speed, and the night already acclaimed its beatific presence. The winter queen closed the book, and put it back where it belonged; Without saying another word, she rose from her chair, and started from the place.

"Vecoria," Leyra exclaims.

"Yes?"

“I know I shouldn't ask you this, but I know we won't talk about this again. I need to know it." Leyra says. "What is Ariadna's legitimate name?"

"Zaura." answers the winter queen.
