| Backstory: Gadrika was born when Agraldin as created and the power of the Gods that came before went into the flame of existence. He resides always in the hall of nurturing and in the halls where the tapestry is woven by those who have died. | Story Excerpt: “Do not despair light maiden.” Said a voice and before her walked the figure from Agraldin but he was no longer cloaked. He was garbed in cloth that changed colour as he moved. At times it was a vibrant green, at others the dark red of dusk and even at times as though he was dressed in the night sky. His face bore no relation to the creatures that would come after or maybe he was all of them, but Livella only saw a mirror of the Gods, vibrant eyes full of knowledge and a face flawless, cast in the same shadow of Agraldin. “Gadrika I am named.” He said at Livella’s shocked glance, “I come from the realm of spirit and in my halls, I nurture and preserve a balance for the universe, to see it steered to proper course. That requires life and life I gift to Besan Gretan with my flame so that all our realms may grow more beautiful, and we can finally achieve what all those who came before us failed at.” His form seemed to shift, and he became then one of the Ilma, tall and magnificent, with golden eyes and no red scales, “In me all life shall live in Besan Gretan, but they shall be free of will, guided by the tapestry of those who came before. Here on this world will come the Ilma and they will be as children of you and in them your image will be seen. They also will have power, power to control their will and though we be Gods, we will be subject to them and to them will the dominion of Besan Gretan be granted. They will see it rise to proper station, protected from the greed and taint of those who are immortal” Gadrika smiled, and he grew shorter, and red scales now covered his cheeks, “With them shall be the Graul, the servant race. Like the vassals shall be to us so shall be the Graul to the Ilma and they will serve them in all their endeavours.” |
