"Bless me o' Great Steel Spirit"
Murmured the elder White-River, standing next to the ruins of Lurin as he raised his hands towards the raging sea, torn by the horrible storm around him as the only light was not from warm homes but by the eternal war of lightning above the clouds. And yet he stands, fallen lord of sea and steel, tired hound of war... Once proud High Ambassador of his Motherland.

"Bless my soul with the eternal flames of your mighty forge as time defeats and my flesh betrays me. Give me your strenght one last time, make me the bulwark of the weak as i always lived by your teachings, and was finest of your steel when waged war against the darkness and its creatures..."
His voice was like thunder, challenging the storm itself as he never knelt for no God or Daemon. But still, this time he waited... waited for something that called him for long nights.
"Too much time has passed, too much i betrayed by my own cowardness... and still life was kind with me... and like all, i shall need to repay this kindness tenfold"
 

 

Rain dropped from his grey beard as he raised his burned face towards the raging sky, remembering the fateful day when he lost everything in that cursed voidal storm long years ago, before waking up on the warm sands of Aevos... but still there was one he kept hidden for all these years. A secret he protected by all cost.

"Unite me with her once again as we are one in eternity... Give me back my dear Stormbreaker"
The old man slowly closed his eyes as the sound of a single horn from the sea shaked the ground below him and calmed the deadly storm, revealing a lone ghost ship among the waves. Covered in its own smoke, like a beautiful maiden hiding behind the finest silks. Fighting her never ending war against the great sea and cutting through its waves to answer her master, towering over the ruined city as they finally united again to save the ones who only wished for peace in this cursed world.
