Story of Tanwen
Our tale begins when a dragon washed up upon the western shores of rathnir he didn't know his name where he was or his past, all he remembered was his instincts and how to speak human tongue. It was a cold night on the shore and that night he drew shapes in the sand and he just so happened to spell the name Rek. It was interesting he thought might as well use something to go by instead of nothing and so he named himself Rek, eventually after travelling the vast plains he came to a small lush town full of vines. Rek asked the locals where a safe and secure place to live would be and so they pointed him north to the lands of the Huitca federation. Eventually while traversing the landscape and reaching the north, he came across a drunken man who called himself Brandon. Brandon offered Rek a place as a citizen in the kingdom of Alda, a kingdom formed by refugees from the fallen kingdom of Uldarassh, finally reaching a place to call home he was given a home and some food. Many years passed and Rek watched many things happen from the Drendor raids to the fall of Astelya and the formation of the Imperium. He got bored of watching things play out though and so he set out to find treasure and see what the world had to offer, after exploring Alda's other provinces he headed further north and noticed a shipwreck just off the coast determined to find riches he dove under the water and into the wreckage. He found little more than rubble and a very suspicious-looking stew, but he did find one thing of note, a book that told of a legend of 4 warriors of light or darkness who show up when light or dark is out of balance to save the world. Rek noticed the book mentioned the names Sen and Lyn a bunch and so he took it back to his fellow citizens for appraisal. They identified the book as having come from further north in the lands of the Aurlunor Velande, and so Rek tried to make the journey there to show it to the people there. But the journey was hard and he was caught in a blizzard in the forest and so he stayed in a cave that night till the blizzard subsided and he decided the journey wasn't worth it and so he went back to Haleos. But then a few weeks later another opportunity presented itself, the ruler of Aurlunor was going to the upcoming wedding between Maria and King Uneasy. And so Rek signed up for the wedding and brought the book and after the ceremony was over the ruler of Aurlunor Sareariel Earcala had passed out due to the drunkenness' and partying and so while she was asleep Rek set the book in her lap and left, Rek would never see or hear anything of the book again. Eventually, Rek would expand his horizons journeying to the lands of the Continent of Eldham and finding a home in the underground city of Nazareth, but then he would be a guest in Kartek for a time while a war between Alda and Kartek was brewing and so before he left his old home he warned the Aldans of a secret plan his friend Seer had told him. Alda was now arrned of impending invasion but strangely even though Huitca collapsed and gave Alda more land the expected invasion from Kartek never came. Then the worst scenario happened, in the middle of all of the conflict a demon had escaped an interdimensional prison in the lost realm known as the end, Segra was released upon the world. With her offers of power, she and the once thought lost goddess of chaos entropy fused now with two souls in one body. All hell had broken loose, Segra's goal was to eradicate all races she viewed as inferior and turn the world into her playground, and Entropy's goal was to simply destroy the world itself, while many fell to their knees and worshipped her or begged for mercy there were a great many who resisted, and Rek was one of them. With his friend Ismir fire brand he planned to forge a master weapon to surpass all others a weapon born from the strongest of all magic, a weapon he would dub the ultimate sword or he calls it ULTİMA but such a weapon took time, too much time, that by the time he had gotten the materials to make the weapon Segra had already been driven into hiding by the forces of the world, but he would amount to nothing if he didn't succeed if he didn't get that kill if he didn't land the killing blow he would be forgotten and fade into obscurity, but something happened one day fate did not intend. One cloudy morning while Rek was fishing a strange glow emitted from under the waves, curiosity got the better of him and so he dove down into the sea. A tiny hole in the sea floor attracted his attention as the glow seemed to be emitting from there, he swam down and ended up in an underwater chamber with an obsidian mirror, his reflection barely showing he simply attempted to leave, but as he turned around... A dark reflection of himself emerged from the mirror like a moving picture and attacked him. His reflection urged him over and over to fight back but no matter how hard he was pressured Rek refused to hurt himself. His reflection acknowledged that the world needed him and that he could be remembered if he tried. And so the reflection bestowed Rek a great gift, the gift of ice, the gift of a new body, the gift of light. With this new gift and looking completely different the reborn dragon decided to give themselves a new name to fit their new look and so the dragoness named herself Tanwen(or white fire). She would continue attempting to forge the sword legend but to this day no one wanted to trade the cleaver she had for netherite or money because of how bad cleavers turned out to be, but she's still looking for a buyer, she hasn't lost hope. From there she began looking for a lover to continue her bloodline in case she died in the fight against Segra, she would search far and wide and eventually she found someone, but that is a story for another time, but for now just remember no matter what happens no matter how hard the road ahead is just to remember, tomorrow is another day and besides immortals, nothing lasts forever.
