Lady Raven

Traveling the Helsian Isle
Weeks passed as Raven traveled alone, hunting by herself with little to no gold on her. Finally she found herself on a ship bound for the city of Miklagard, the capitol of the nation of Helsia. It had been dusk when she arrived at its harbor. The night air coming down as she stepped off the boat onto the wooden planks of the docks, landing with a soft creak. Raven didn't take much time there, and quickly made her way through the city. Eventually she traveled until reaching a small river port town to the northeast called Murussa for the rest of the night. Having taken advantage of someone's unfinished house for good shelter. By morning she had found out Murussa happened to be a former capitol of the province of Stultum in CoG... a funky name if she'd ever seen one. No capitol was the home to her at this point, she had to keep going, packing her things she made her way eastwards along the coast until something caught her eye. A large tree stood proud further inland, something too big to avoid at least looking at first. To call it large had been an underestimate as it seemed to reach far into the clouds when she finally reached the bottom. Luckily it seemed the bark had been chipped away at to make a living staircase upwards, however the time it took to reach the top meant it had been getting late with the stars already out by the time Raven stopped to take a break and rest up, surely she would find a place close by to shelter in for a while.

Finding a Home
Sunrise broke away the fog that drapped the jungles around Raven as she stood on top of the giant tree, a sign she noticed had called it Kallos. Not far across one of the local rivers dividing up Helsia, was what seemed to be ruins further to the east, perfect cover for her, and maybe more. Traveling back down the tree and starting her journey was not an easy task, as she was starting to run low on supplies. A sign at the foot of the path leading up told her the former name "Sonorous", however based on it's shape, it was nowhere near close to the name's definition. The walls looked tall and unwelcoming, it's stone works crumbling under the moss and vines that intangled it. However the flow of running water caught Raven's ear as she looked down to see a small cave under all the vines and overgrowth. Stepping in she found herself transported to a whole another world. The cave was built up, still overgrown mind you, but livable. There were what seemed to be former fortifications at the front and as she went deeper and deeper in, she found books about the place, all dated long before she had even been born. Dropping her belongings by an old wooden pillar by a large barrel she signed to herself in contentment. She had found it. Her home, Higanabana. w:Wikipedia:Writing_better_articles
