[Nalain Tarek]

CHAPTER 1    The First Task




    There was once a creature in the lands of Yliakum  Who was Neither Kran Nor Lemur He was a Dwarf.   However this dwarf was not like the dwarves you see now He was a Kran Dwarf.  He was made of Stone but had the features of the dwarf He was origginally a statue created by the kran In the shape of a lemur.  But since the Kran did not Have the greatest artistic ability they made him a dwarf.  Talad , seeing as his people wanted cummunication with the lemurs ,  Gave him life.  

    The kran named him Aleck.  Aleck Was Excellent with the lemurs.  He traded and communicated with the Lemurs For centuries .  One day he saw a creature chase a kran out of a lemur city.  Seeing as the kran couldnt enter the city ,Talad destroyed The city.

       The lemurs, fearing they had angered Talad shrank down into the Lands.  Aleck, Seeing it was only a rapid beast pleaded with talad to leave them alone.  Talad, Sensed he was telling the truth stoped the hunt.  Instead he ordered the kran to hunt the beast.

[isn\'t laanx the \"tough\" of the gods... i\'ve not heard of talad this way, only laanx.

originally from the history of yliakum
Laanx spoke, showing completely his true essence. - I\'m Laanx - she said - and I\'m your god.-
The creature gazed resentfully and silently, and then sat on a rock with its chin in its hands.
Seeing that the creature refused to follow his orders, Laanx became enraged and destroyed the creature by whispering a single word.
During the following days, many other Klyros passed through the portal. Each time, Laanx tried to impose his will. Many of them were corrupted, tempted in many ways, or were destroyed or tortured, but none of them yielded to the god\'s will. It seemed their pride did not allow them to bend to any god.

talad destroying a whole city sounds more like laanx
but i like the story though :tup:]

[Nalain Tarek]

Thanks I\'ll fix it, but why would laanx destroy her peoples city for chasing out kran?

[BlackAcre]

[Don\'t \"fix it\".  Gods are fickle by their very nature.  If Talad went off on a bender, that sounds par for the course in the world of deities and demigods.  It\'s more interesting this way.]

This i the first thread i have that people talk  

Anyway  


CHAPTER 2     The Hunt



        After Aleck saved the Lemurs from Talads anger he knew that the lemurs would hide.  While the kran hunted the beast aleck looked for the kran who was chased away by the beast.   Aleck found him in the church of talad.  Aleck spoke with him for just a few minutes.  Aleck learned his name was Ylikone.  Ylikone only needed to tell him what happened when he met the beast.  

         After Aleck learned why the beast chased out ylikone he emediatly went to Talad. He didnt want talad to stop the hunt,  he wanted to join the hunt.  Talad agreed that he could join the hunt.


       Aleck heard many rumors about a new race inprisoned by the lemurs, but he didnt beleive them, that is untill now.  Ylikone had said he was preaching when a beast with wings and scales jumped at him for no apparent reason.  Not knowing what to do Ylikone fled and the beast chased.  Eventually the beast gave way and set back for the village.  

      The hunters never found anything untill they asked for the aid of the lemurs.  Aleck knew the lemurs would be able to help.  They showed them their prison and they found there beast.  He was in the shape of a lemur with scales and wings as ylikone had said. T he hunt was over...

Chapter 3   The Truth behind the beasts



Aleck knew when the hunt was over talad wold punish the creatures.  Aleck also knew he had to prove te creatures were tempted somehow by laanx
 .Aleck had to save them from talad.  Talad thought the creatures wre ruthless beasts and destroyed almost every one of them, but Aleck saved a few dozen by placing a spell around a gruop of them

Aleck pleaded with talad that the creatures were being tempted by LAANX and shouldnt be destroyed but protected.  Talad knowing his servant was telling the truth let the rest live.  Aleck attempted to speak with the creatures but could understand very little.All he learned was that there name was KLYROS...
