Cynn heir of aramilia the summoned city
Aramilia: Aramilia was an unknown city that was summoned by an aincient race of elementals, a small group of elves found the city orbiting the world hidden by an illusion, the city was made to always look like a shadowed cloud on the hotizon by day and a large star by night, the elves found the way to dispel the illusion long enough to find the city's real location, as they got onto the city they found a town full of timid yet civilised himanoid elementals, they formed an alliance and the city developed as the elves used their knowledge and magic along side the elementals aincient powers to build great magical towers, libraries and a castle larger than any in the land.
With the cloaking illusion removed from the city the civilisations could see the city in the sky, with its natural beauty shining down on the war-torn camps of humans below the overpowering nature of greed in the human soul drew them to create an assault on aramilia, the city fell to the humans but a handfull of elves were spared, the elementals were all destroyed leaving the magic keeping the city in the air unsupported and slowly decaying, the elves knew they had to take back the city to save its destruction as the humans were too naive to find the magic, they trained themselves in secret to become fine warriors assasains and casters of devastating offensive magical abilities.
Together they attacked the humans, all but two elves were killed in the first assault the remaining two were two unlikely friends, Cynn a deadly assasain that was heir to the throne of aramilia before it fell, and Calidir, th citys strongest warrior and the kings honourable bodyguard,
Though there were only two elves left the humans had suffered a wprse fate, only their leader, lucian of amakiir, survived, though strong he knew he could not defeat either calidir or cynn alone, he fled the city and spread legends of the two aramilian elves that survived from the 7 that had slain an army.
Calidir and Cynn knew that they must flee the city befor it fell to earth, as they had no gryphons left to fly they searched the libraries of their ancestors for a safe way to descend, after three days of reading through unhelpful spells and storys, Cynn stumbled across a legend he had not heard before, that the city was not just summoned by aincient elementals, but the rock itself was an elemental and a secret passageway in the castle lead to an elemental shrine, from there the mortals could speak to this everlasting elemental.
Cynn and Calidir went to the shrine, they asked it for a way down, as they looked into its soul they absorbed the information of everything the elemental had ever seen and learned how they could use peices of the rock to create flying platforms and descend, just as they were about to leave Cynn realised something, the city was to fall from the sky and the elemental would be destroyed, he looked again into its soul and it shared its aincient wisdom, cynn leaned a spell that could take the soul of the elemental and compress it into a small gem, though it would be in hibernation it would be alive to one day recreate aramilia, Cynn fashioned the gem into a necklace and wore it with honour as the last remaining peice of aramilia.
calidir is my friends character, i doubt hell be RPing here.
as theres no elves in this forum youll just have to imagine it says something else =P
