Taynei'hiylu - Watcher of the Wilds

 

 

Forged amidst the fires of old, amidst the now lone realm aeons ago Taynei'hiylu derived from the hands of her creator, Dragur, with the sole intention of defending the elvenkin from the ire of Iblees and the newfound Drakaar which scorched the hearts of dragonkin, morphing their very souls into a wretched blight. Taynei'hiylu was naught but a dragonling when she was plucked by the pale hands of a wandering elf upon His expedition, surveying the lands to which He later forged a kingdom upon. Her scales were a dull emerald hue similar to the oaken trees in a warm summer’s eve and already the might of a fully grown grizzly. In his moment of awe she was taken to the druidic order to which they had later discovered she was, in fact, a Dragaar. Some sought her death, some, her imprisonment, and others, to discover the truth behind these shapeshifting primordial beasts.

 

Taynei'hiylu was renown for her more peaceful ways, however, her identity was concealed by the inner-workings of the council and the King of the Elves to prevent intruders attempting to assassinate, enslave, or even worse, blight her, for all Dragaar are susceptible to taint. Her curiosity often led her astray in her inherent task for knowledge. Her priority, however, was not that of Dragur’s task but instead the Aspects which stood stalwart alongside the nature of the realm as her creator had been imprisoned, and unheard of. She did just that, absorbing the mass amount of knowledge she could discover and learn in regards to the balance of the realm, the Aspects, and preserving nature. Eventually as she reached the age of fifty she had been granted entry into the druidic order as one of their own; the Transcendent Druid, Taynei'hiylu, Watcher of the Wilds. As time went by Taynei'hiyluwas sluggishly succumbing to the nearing blight which threatened the elven lands as it came in large quantities, and eventually, inflicting the once sacred lands which scorched the Dragaar’s heart, and in turn, she was afflicted with horrific nightmares cast unto her by the Archdaemon itself as He sought to ravage the lands for his armies to expand in number. Slowly, but surely, as the blight carved into the earthern lands it carved away at her willpower and she began to lose her mind, the once undying light encompassing her fragile mind put to the test as the nethers’ hellfire engulfed a large portion of the land, and so, the elves rallied alongside the druidic order to fight back against the raging blight; Taynei'hiylu took flight.

 

She was meant to protect,

She was meant to stand stalwart alongside her brethren,

She was meant to fight to the very end,

But instead, she fled.

 

A disagreement had spouted between elvenkin and druidic alike; the druids of old sought her might to wage war against the heart of the netherspawn itself, having battled in a dozen skirmishes, defending the elven forests it attracted the attention of a growing blight the Archdrakaar which scowered the lands in order to maim the druidic beast; and so, she turned tail. She could not face the dreaded Drakaar which had maimed so many of her brethren; the blight which encompassed the wretched beast shook her to her very core as tales of ol’ spun within her mind of past Dragaar which had turned themselves to stone in order to ward off the transformation to Drakaar. So, she departed from the elven isle, fleeing as fast as she could with the raging sounds of war emanating from brethren she had grown to love, and just as she regretted her action -- she twists to turn back.. until she fell.

 

The ominous roar of a giant dragon pierced her draconic ears whilst her left wing was almost split in two, and a lengthy wound had been carved into her left side.

 

Drauchvoszas, the God Eater had dawned upon the fleeing Dragaar and he sought to slaughter and consume the druidic beast which fell from the open skies, parting with a flurry of cries which engulfed the lands in ear-piercing roars. Spewing forth an array of hellfire toward the approaching Drakaar it did naught but take the brunt of the force whilst its entire torso caved down upon Taynei'hiylu, causing her to plummet to the earth like a comet from space. Drauchvoszas sought to consume the beast for his own might until the isle shook and trembled, the grounds split beneath the near-dead Dragaar; roots spewed forth from the nearest elder trees to coil around the Dragaar’s torso, sluggishly tugging her into the depths of the abyss. She could not fall, not to the dreaded Drakaar which would morph her a new and stain the Aspects’ power. Drauchvoszas scowled to the brilliant array of power the combined trio presented which sealed the unfortunate Dragaar, and departed to ravage the old land.

 

This was her sin,

Her burden to carry,

A nightmare to which she could not escape.

 

Sealed, and forgotten.

This could potentially open up a series of events in which she is released from her ethereal chains which little memory of her past life except that it was sluggishly returning. This will open up a chance to introduce more in regards to the history of the druids and the elves to the race (considering their religion)
