Something is Coming

[xtarsia]

Greetings all,

Many of you who know me will also know that my beloved sister, Arixia left the known lands a year ago in order to explore the deeper regions of atys.

It is of her explorations that i am here to tell you all about.


My sister and i were separated long ago, I eventually discovered an encampment in the Ruins of Silain, and thus learned about the rebuilding of the nations!

It was not for some time however that my sister whilst journeying on her own through the wilderness made her way through the very gates of the great city Zora! Only to see me standing by the stables conversing with the stable boy regarding the possibility's of domesticating other creatures to ride, or carry trade goods. (I must say i was most displeased with his attitude against the very idea of experimenting. Let alone even trying it out.)

Our meeting was much to both our surprise, and was indeed a joyous occasion! However after much time together, including some of the most fierce battles one could ever imagine, (Her skills as a healer were truly remarkable, though she lacked the raw power of some healers that had earnt the title of Celestial Guardian, the speed and efficiency of her healing could be matched by none, Indeed, i owe her my life many many times over) She decided to depart, as she longed to wander though the beauty of Atys as she had done before for so many years. She did promise that she would return on the same day that we were reunited at the stables in a years time.

However, she did not return, so i waited for a few days and still she did not arrive, thus i left in search of her.

After three months in the wilds, i came upon the most horrifying sight that my eyes could ever behold, for lying on the ground before me, was the body of my Beloved sisters ever faithful mektoub, Greebles. Missing a rear leg, an eye and most of his pack. However the poor creature was still breathing. I could see the pain he was in, and yet the look of relief at my coming was most apparent as he pulled my hand towards him with his trunk. The strength to do so was barely in him. It was only at this moment that i noticed further off two dead gingos!

I could not believe it, Greebles, such a humble honest beast had lost a leg and an eye, but lived through the vicious onslaught that had fallen upon him. Greebles huffed in a manner of impatience. I looked back down to find Greebles offering me a tattered piece of parchment which he held up with his trunk....
