falling into the chaos of reality...
Millions of years ago, there was an isle, connected by land and sea to the vast expanse we choose to call Earth. Although the two were connected, they shared nothing of each other, not even the same Gods. They were separate worlds. The God of Light, Karrae, created the isle, and so created the first and only life form to inhabit the land, wolves. At the time, Hareus, the God of Shadow lay in wait and watched over Karrae as she modelled her grand creation. They spoke little, but he was miffed at her having stolen the wolves’ respect for herself and so corruption first leaked into the mind of an already doubtful pack.
Hareus slipped poison into their thoughts, whisperings of betrayal and the promise of much prey and fortune. Soon, their tortured selves began to show physically as well as mentally, their eyes haunted, their bodies mutated and their fear and cruelty spread. Karrae’s anger was obvious and many storms overhung the isle that was now corrupt, the final and most powerful one, causing the earth to shatter and rip into three pieces. The cruel were named the Bane, banished onto the smallest of the isles and damned by Karrae herself to live for an eternity. The neutral and the peaceful were named the Karrin and the untrustworthy named the Marre’d also given their own part of the world. The isle, severed from the Earth by Hareus as a final decree of his power, was sentenced to solitude and so to death… eventually.
Karrae observed the land for many thousands of years after, so many in fact that she longed to forgive the clearly repenting wolves for their sins. And so, after 10,000 years and much deliberation, Karrae gave to the world a gift better than any other. Power. The Bane were given the freedom of death, but also the power to haunt those after they were gone. The Karrin were given the powers of the earth, each it’s own element. The Marre’d were given sight, and the power to see beyond what ordinary wolves sought, to hear what ordinary wolves could not. She gave the world birds to flock the skys, fish to swim the creeks, mice to scuttle the forests and beauty to the wolves that could not be claimed natural. Dingoes and dogs, hybrids were borne and Karrae was contented with her work, for the first time in a long while. She called the isle Faynoir (fay-noi-rar)
But hatred does not die… Wolves given wings do not stay to the earth… Birds do not own the power of free will… And the land is changing; wolves are rising from the dust and ashes of a war, ones that are not willing to share a world with their counterparts, they want it all for themselves and more. Packs must come together to face an evil. For the first time in millenniums the Bane, Karrin and Marre’d will form packs together and wolves will fall into blackening heavens…
