Legends of Belariath
Ryuki
This young man. Comes from the acursed Island of Zalin. A Place across the sea and far away from the land of Belariath. He left his home land in search of a away to reserve an evil curse placed upon him. This curse one might say had the power to steal the strength and life of another and replace all together.
He came here baring only few belongs. A simply Long bladed sword an a sheild which was adore by the emblem of the island kingdom. Upon arriving within the town of Nathalion he begun his search. He sought away to release himself of this curse and find the strength and past which had been stripped from him.
After trying to learn magic for awhile. He gave up the curse seemed unbreakable. Until he met one named Alta Nova and her Slave. This woman slave had removed the curse upon Ryuki.. But not completely. The memories of his past flooded his mind slowly after that day..
He remembered the great battle in which his King was killed by the Nercomancer Novacia.. Revenage begun to drive the young man. The name of his past calling to him now. That name.. Cecil Vergin..
One day he return to the kingdom of Zalin and tryed to slay the Novacia.. But he was captured and imprisoned in the dungeon. He was tortured there. Beaten and defeated the captain of Novacia's guarded luaghed in his face. Telling him how his friend had expired from life. This awoke the anicent teaching of shadow lance in the young man.
He freed himself from the bonds through the use of dimension door. A rather handy spell which could shift you causing you to blink from dimension and reform in another spot within one line of sight. Once freed he killed the captain of the guads procliaming that he the Battousai once more.
He espaced there with his life and reclaimed his armorment he came here with. He retreated to the safety of Belariath once more.. There he trained himself harder than before. Having recalled the truth behind himself. He was Cecil Altorza Vergin. Faithful Servent and Assassin to King Layon of Zalin.
He had recalled the last oath he had given to the king. But soon darkness begun to fill his soul completely.. He turned upon a friend of his. Krom the Barbarin warlord. The man saw the darkness which had consumed him. He bested him in battle leaving him on the arena floor to die.
As he layed there uncousion and half dead something stired within him. He felt a touch a whisper upon the wind the next morning which had becokened him to awaken. When he awoke he felt the darkness that was consuming him had been expeled.
This awaken within him was caused by the goddess he now serves. He had been called to become a holy warrior those which they call Paladin's. For a time he was happy now. He had even found a new leige her name was Harmonia. He served her faithful until one day. Darkness desence on him once more..
Harmonia had become capture by Fire Mages. But These mages had also captured someone esle, someone from his past. The Princess of Zalin. King Layon sister. He left without even a second thought. He had to forsake his oath to King Layon. So he rushed to aid Harmonia and free her.
Unfornately after a hard travel and many battles he reached the cave where the held her captive. He made his way deep into it to find her bond in chains battered and beaten by them. A rage consumed him. But something stired to life in him. A man stepped out before him. It was Novacia. As the darkness grasped his heart he ran his sword through the man without a second thought.
But as Novacia died he whispered something. It disturbed young man deeply. This man who had cursed him was Novacia Vergin.. Cecil older brother.. As he fell lifeless upon the floor of the cave the fire mages luaghed as they had gathered around him now. They told him he would die here.
They chanted there spells of fire and slung at him burning his body and heating the dragon scale he wore to protect him. He fell to one knee. He growled with the last of his strength he grasped the power of a spell he knew. Flung it towards the chains free Harmonia. Then he collapsed..
Everything around him had went black. He awoke in a bed in a place he did not know. But he heard Harmonia voice. “You owe me.” as if mocking him telling him how weak he was. But as she left he arose from the bed and looked in a mirror within the room.
His eyes went wide at the sight he saw within that mirror. He saw Zaha. His father the dark knight. But slowly he saw the image twist becoming his own. He felt it now. Stiring to life inside him. The Darkness which consume everything.
At this monment all he had believed in had shattered into a thousand peice right before his eyes. He felt the darkness almost completely consume him now. His power of healing feld his body as new strength stired deep within him now. He had become darkness.
He had fallen. Becoming a Dark Paladin now.. Or more commonly called a dark knight. Now events have happened which seem uncontrollable. He had betrayed Harmonia. Siding with the Priest and drawing his sword against her.
But yet in darkness he still knew right from wrong in a twisted sense. He knew what he did was high treason. Which got him executed in the middle of town. But even death could not keep his dark soul barred from life.. He was than found again and tortured by a dark elf which serves Harmonia.
Now his life seems bent on pain and destruction. He found a single monment of happiness however which is now stripped from him. He loves a woman. But it seems his own foolishness destoried that. So he moves on now. In an endless cycle of love and betrayal in his eyes.
But one person trys to show him. He is not lost she is a simple slave girl to him. Her name is Kianti. She claims to love him so very deeply. But if he choose another over her she will leave and he will lose her. It seems his darkness now has slowly twisted her as well.
But now he thinks carefully upon something. Is this darkness in him true evil or is it something esle? He willing had sacrficed himself by this time to a dragon for a ritual not knowing what it was for. His core reasoning somehow remaining.
That honor which has seen him through everything is all that seem to hold him together now. That reason he fights. To protect the people. His sacrfice was ment to help them somehow. But he does not know what the dragon ment.
When awoke from the ritual he was very much alive again. A new crystal blade rested in his steath. Now he roams this land seeking what he must.. He thinks there is a hiden truth to all the events which have transpired.
