Archturious Talinthus

History in Aten --- Archturious Talinthus came to the holy city known as Aten at the age of 18. He lived there in peace and solitude worshiping the God Deus Helios for several years. Although as time passed by, the city was found by Athaz The Traveler. Athaz didn't like Aten, and didn't want a religious uprising within his borders. So in secrecy he spoke with the prophet Chazarios. Chazarios never told his followers about this conversation, and behind their backs he decided that he would take them and leave Aten. This information was leaked when Athaz realized that Chazarios hadn't told the people of Aten about any of the discussions. After this was leaked, many of the citizens did not like this and decided to stand in revolt. Thus began the occupation of Aten after a fierce debate between Chazarios and Archturious. Archturious Talinthus lead the revolting people of Aten, and after receiving a vision from Deus Helios he was known as the second prophet; as Chazarios the first prophet had been corrupted by the moon (The enemy of Deus Helios). Although in irony Chazarios told the people that still followed him that Arch had been corrupted by the moon to keep their support in the cause. After a debate with Athaz and Chazarios that lead nowhere, the time of the inevitable doom of Aten came near. As this time crept closer and Athaz had declared that Aten had risen their flags in revolt. Disaster struck. The people of Aten that stood with Arch were terrified and left. This left Arch alone to fight for Aten. Before the army of Athazolant came to Aten, Archturious received his second vision from Deus Helios. This one told him to flee and resettle somewhere else, where he could regain followers and make connections. So following Deus Helios' command Archturious fled Aten and sailed east for the cold tundra of the (former) UBSR. Where Arch would be tested the greatest. For in the cold tundra there was little sunlight and guidance, so he would have to fight off the temptations and corruption of the moon. ---

History in the UBSR

--- The time Archturious spent in the tundra was mostly unimportant but it gave him time to think, meet new people, and strengthen his resistance against the temptations of the Moon. Here he wrote several books about the origins of Deus Helios, because the former had been destroyed in Aten. Arch forced himself to go into exile for 2 years to test and harden himself, so instead of joining one of the cities in the UBSR, he set up a small tent in the middle of nowhere next to a mountain and a frozen pond. That tent served to give him somewhere to sleep and store things, without getting the comforts a house would award him. The days and weeks passed by peacefully and Arch met a few wanderers and exchanged stories with them. Some he even converted to Deus Helios. Arch despite living in horrid conditions, found comfort here. But this peaceful lifestyle would not last long. He was framed for stealing a shulker box from a farm, and with no evidence, several prominent figures from the UBSR came down to end his days. One of them named underscoregrog_ (I forgot the exact ign, I think that is what it was) had acted like the wanderers Arch grew fond of meeting. So without knowledge of what would happen next, Arch lead them straight to his camp. Once he and Grog had arrived, lighting struck everyone in the server at once. Grog let out a holler and 2 people came out from behind the mountains and entered the open tent. They backed Arch up to a wall with harming potions in hand. Archturious had nowhere to go and the treacherous leech Grog searched through his entire tent. After finding nothing Grog decided that Arch had already sold the shulker box and motioned for his minions to kill Arch. Arch managed to push through them and escape and ran for the frozen sea. The minions chased after him for a short time but gave up when they realized Arch could outrun them. So Archturious dispirited and still in shock sailed off, leaving his tent and coming out of exile.

--- In-between time --- In the time between leaving his tent after being chased out, and founding the grand city of Revaria. One of the biggest, and the most populous city in Aldovir; Arch turned into someone he wished he'd never had become. He became cynical and took to drinking his stress away. He became a common person at parties and bars. Sometimes he even supplied drinks for parties when they were running out of alcohol. After the lightning struck every player in the server Arch received no more visions from Deus Helios for quite some time, and started losing faith and stopped converting people to the supreme will of Deus Helios. Not much happened in these times and Arch became a wanderer that traveled through the barren lands, stopping only shortly in towns. Months later Arch received a new vision. This one was grand, and told of no tragedy. It told Arch to get himself back together and found a new city in the forgotten land of (former) Hinokuko and Shirakaba. Which ironically was bordering the place he originally fled, Athazolant. So he set off traveling many miles from the edge of Yimmu-Audal. --- Founding and building Revaria ---
