Until the Black Plague

Sunday 1 March 2009

Kings Austin and Ian, the Sorcerer's Council, and the time before the end of the world.
Claire:
So what was the Sorcerer's Coucil?
Stranger:
You might have heard from the members of the Council: Ploog, Greil, Aureil and many more. The Sorcerer's Council was fighting the King-
Cassandra:
The King? Is Galandir so old? *frowns*
Stranger:
*laughs* Not Galandir was King back then. King Austin reigned over the fair Kingdom Oberin. His castle was in Oberin City. He had a son from his first wife, Prince Ian. Later he married Lyrel and as new Queen she gave him two children: Prince Ceril and Princess Sofie.
Claire:
Ooooh! A queen!
Stranger:
*nods* But Queen Lyrel was quite power-hungry, she wanted to be the sole monarch. When Sam II slayed King Austin in his sleep, Queen Lyrel dismissed the Royal Mage Seth and the Royal Cleric Clarisa. In their place she put the wizard Dominus and the Cleric Grenton. Dark times followed for Oberin Kingdom was no longer a safe place.
Cassandra:
What happened to Prince Ian?
Stranger:
Prince Ian grew up. He was old enough to become King, but whoever would support him was jailed. In the end, Seth freed the prisoners and so began the revolution. Seth would steal the Book of Dead from Dominus to gain skills and knowledge in Black Magic.
In the same moment Seth summoned Dominus to fight him, Bane came in with hordes of Ice Dracos. Bane killed everyone around and took Dominus with him. With that, there was no one who could have stopped Prince Ian. The Ian faction stormed the castle and forced the Queen to surrender. The new King banished the Queen. Ian was King of Oberin Kingdom. The last one.
Claire:
The last one? How comes?
Stranger:
Oh, I believe Seth wrote a tome about the end of Ian and Oberin Kingdom. Ploog was defeated, but his soul was called back by failure of the Necromancer. That is how Lich Ploog emerged. The Bane Cult started fighting Lich Ploog but failed again and again. In the end, Lich Ploog defeated the Bane Cult.
While Seth was killing Aureil, the founder of the Sorcerer's Council was just beside the King. The traitor, Fool Coco managed to kill King Ian with a ruse. Fool Coco stole the King's ring, which let him command Black Dragons.
Claire:
No! Seth wouldn't let him!!
Stranger:
He wouldn't. But even Seth cannot defeat an army of Black Dragons. This was the Black Plague, also known as the End of the world.
Cassandra:
Nonsense! How can this be the end? We are still here after all!

[Before I forget to tell you, Claire, the links to the pictures of Dominus and Greton are already broken. I am saving all the images we quote and adding them to my photobucket account. Yes, yes, better safe than sorry ;)

Do you happen to have these two?]
