REGION 3: The Crumbling Tower

 

History:

 

The Crumbling Tower is found to the North of Elven lands. It is said, that long ago the dwarven King banished his daughter to the tower to await a prince to save her— A traditional fairy tale plot. However, the true rationale for her existence within the tower was that she had been tainted with dark magic. A dark magic which ran through her very soul and twisted it. So distraught was he, he banished her to this tower, under the guise of the traditional fairy tale plot. Long had the last of the order of nine wandered until he came to dwarven lands and was assigned this task to end his days in his misery from the massacre of 1283.

 

It was this tower which was warded and guarded by the last of the order of nine until the end of her days.

 

He later died and with little to eat she starved there, for the King could not bare to have his men kill his daughter and with her the taint died. Over time the wards lost their power and all that remained was her withered skeletal corpse for the descendants to find upon their arrival.

 

Poem found in Human Lands:

The old King’s daughter,

Day by day she waits,

Her cheeks ruddy as a rose,

Her voice sweet as a lark,

She moves with a lilly’s grace,

But it is there she waits,

In her ivory tower,

Passing her days until her prince is to come.
