Legends and Lore
In the heart of the mystical nation of Arandor, a land where ancient forests whisper secrets and hills sing of old tales, dwell three distinct groups of Elves: the Wood Elves, the High Elves, and the Hill Elves. Each group, unique in their ways and traditions, share a common reverence for the valar, celestial beings who guide their fate. Among these divine entities, Seraphiel, the Herald of Dreams and Prophecy, stands as a beacon of wisdom and foreknowledge. Seraphiel, the ethereal guardian of dreams, governs the realms of slumber and prophecy. She bridges the ethereal and the mortal worlds, communicating through the subconscious minds of the Elves. Her visions, often delivered in the stillness of the night, guide and warn, illuminate paths and reveal the threads of destiny. Seraphiel's presence is marked by a figure draped in shimmering veils, her form ever-changing like the tapestry of dreams she weaves. Her insights are sought by seers, her prophecies respected and revered. In the annals of Arandor's lore, there exists a prophecy of profound significance. It speaks of the Elendir, three Elves chosen from each group—Wood Elf, High Elf, and Hill Elf—whose gathering signals the end of an era. This prophecy, woven into the dreams of seers and whispered among the wise, is a harbinger of great change.The prophecy holds that when all three Elendir come together in Arandor, a new epoch will dawn. The nature of this change is shrouded in mystery, its implications vast and unknown. Some believe it heralds an era of enlightenment and unity, while others fear it may bring turmoil and upheaval. As the time draws near, the Elves of Arandor, bound by their faith in Seraphiel, prepare for the fulfillment of this ancient foretelling. In the silent watches of the night, as dreams weave their intricate patterns, the Elves look to Seraphiel, seeking her wisdom and awaiting the convergence of the Elendir. The nation of Arandor stands at the threshold of destiny, its future poised on the brink of transformation, guided by the veiled prophecies of the Herald of Dreams.
Of the Elendir, only one is known to the world:
Tirian Caelenis, a Wood Elf swordsman of exceptional skill and quiet determination. Tirian, bearing the weight of prophecy, walks the ancient woods with the grace of one who is both warrior and guardian. His destiny is intertwined with that of Arandor, his path marked by Seraphiel's guidance.
