This is a tale of a legend that could change the world, a tale so famous that it has been forgotten for a long time.

Long ago... In the realm of Eria.. there is a legend of a power so strong it can conquer the realm of Eria itself. Some call it a curse some called it a blessing.

It is said that whoever holds the power will gain the strength of a 1000 dragons. A power so powerful that a mountain will sink it's presence just by being near it!

This power cannot be obtain but chosen by it. It is said to be born into the person soul. But once it has it's vessel the power is vulnerable to be taken by others. It will bring about corruption and fear for people will want it for themselves.

Some say to get that power, you will have to kill that person and eat the heart to gain the soul. For this power has been around since the beginning of time of corruption. For when corruption began the essence of Life has been around for many Millenia.

Now the lets hear the story of Nark'sha The Fallen. He was the eldest son of the King Niruk. For he among the Five Sibilings he wishes to rule the land of Galdur for himself. Then one day, the king was gravely ill and knew his time is of an end. So he call for his sons.

For everyone knows that when a king dies his eldest son will be heir to the throne. But what King Niruk did was different. H decided to split the land of Galdur among the 5 of them. Nark'sha grew furious and demanded for all of the land for himself, but the King denied his request. And so Nark'sha left the King's chamber mad and furious.

And that's when he stumble upon an old lady, dressed in a black cloak with long wrinkled fingers. They were so thin they can be compared to a twig. Her nails were long and yellowish, a long nose with a spot on it. But that was all Nark'sha can see for she had her hood covering her eyes. And there she told Nark'sha the tale of the power.

Nark'sha being greedy demanded to know where he can gain this power. The old lady revealed to him a vision in her crystal ball, and that's when Nark'sha knew she is an Oracle. The Oracle told Nark'sha that his youngest brother bares the power to that which he seeks.

Nark'sha didn't bother to think and asked for a solution to gain the power. The Oracle gave him one last tip and vanished. Bearing the tip in mind Nark'sha went to confront his youngest brother and killed him that night.

For how Nark'sha gain the power, even I do not know. Some say he ate the heart of his brother while some say he drank his soul, for the body was never found. Upon hearing what Nark'sha did, his brothers were enrage and went to war with him.

But their might can never compare to that of Nark'sha and his new found power. For he had turned into a monster that couldn't be stopped. On the verge of defeat, the three brothers stumbled upon The Oracle who share with them a piece of their fate.

Their lives will end in the next battle but the land will be safe from Nark'sha. The three of them heed for one more advice from the Oracle but she was gone. After a war meeting among the three brothers and their man, they have come to a conclusion. And that is to seal away Nark'sha in hopes that this power will never come to light again. But the price to pay was beyond what any normal human beings would want, it comes at the cost of their lives. But little do they know that sealing away the power wouldn't stop it, ever since all those who bore the power died and a 1000 years later a new vessel resurface. Never once were there two existing at the same time.

Before their final battle, the three brothers entrusted their lands to their children.

During the last confrontation, on the borders of their lands against Nark'sha. Nark'sha had turned himself in to a demon, and on the verge of death, the three brothers cut their arms and allow their blood to be absorb into the soil.

The gods must have heard their prayers and send down a ray of light on the demon. Turning him into The Tree of the Fallen sealing him away into the chain by the chain of the gods. A black tree that bares no leaves, a tree with branches so empty you can hear the sound of Nark'sha moaning soul. And whenever a soul should go corrupted over greed a tree will grow from the soil that divides the land. And from that day on, that power shall be known as The Dragon's Curse.

That tree now divides the land of Galdur into two. One side where there is no king to lead the people to prosperity, where the beings are corrupted and greedy. While on the other side lives many kingdom build by the children of the three brothers.

And so a 1000 years pass since Nark'sha have been name Nark'sha the Fallen, and the curse had been stop. Or so they though...

A note from Elinor : Legends are lessons.. they ring with truth!

Galdur = Magic in Icelandic.

Nark'sha = a name I came up with feeling that it gives some vibes just by saying his name and the title :3
