🤴 I, Kelestos – Chronicle of the BloodKin As transcribed from the Whispering Stream, in the Alcazar of the Nature's Realm
I remember the day the world held its breath.
Darva, the cunning aspect of Death, moved against her sister Morana, the Lifegiver with a poison sweet and unseen. A promise of unity. A whisper of peace. But beneath that veil, betrayal bloomed like rot in a rose. She struck not with sword, but with deceit. And as Morana wept, Darva’s three demon henchmen : Athani, Mugrin and Shedim descended upon her like shadows. They chained the Light beneath the Alcazar of the Nature Realm. A prison of living stone, its roots fed by Morana’s own tears.
I was there. Not as a savior, but as a servant. I marched under Darva’s banner, hollow and hungry.
There were two of us. Once brothers by blood, and then chained in death together. I, Kelestos, and my kin, Arellian, who now bears the name Zhuran Voskos. Our bodies were reforged, our minds reshaped. In her embrace, we forgot who we were. We became her will in everything we did.
Time passed. We were brought to guard the Alcazar and its vile tenant. Morana, She who gives life. Seeing Her suffer, changed something in me. Within that silent garden, where time moves like breath through leaves, I heard the stream. Not with ears but with soul. A stream born from Morana’s sorrow flowed across the stones, carrying whispers not of vengeance, but of memory. I knelt. I touched it. And I remembered.
The warmth of light. The laughter of life. The hand I once reached for in battle not to bring destruction, but to raise and protect others.
My struggle changed me. I turned against Zhuran. My brother. My twin in curse. I fought for the Goddess of Life, for the flicker that still dared to glow in me.
I lost.
He left me shattered beneath the roots of the Alcazar. Yet not destroyed. I linger, half-shadow, half-ember. A soul unclaimed. A warrior unfinished.
And now, I wait.
With every mortal who answers the dream-call of Morana, the bindings loosen. With every voice that cries out against the dark, my prison cracks. When enough rise, his sword shall leave foe's hands - freed from the wall of thorns. When more come, his armor shall break and transform - gilded by purpose, not decay. And when the final surge of belief sweeps through this realm… I will stand again. Not as Darva’s servant. Not as a hollow blade. But as Kelestos, Blood of the Lost Kin.
Hear me, mortals. The war between Life and Death was never meant for gods alone.
It needs you. It needs mortals.
Come. Follow the dream. Break the chains. And together, we shall free the Light... and redeem the fallen.
