Entropy
PrologueWhere does life come from? The sun and earth, we are told. Wherefrom came the sun and earth? The creators have placed them there.
Why is there death and chaos? From the seams of the universe where uncertainty exists, came the Ancients which sought to control the world. These are the truths reasoned by great philosophers at the dawn of civilization.
One such legend tells us of a kingdom trying to harness the power of the sun and control the world. Aximander, the ruler of this kingdom, begun years of bloodshed in the long war to crush the opposing regions. In his greed he had made sacrifices of his people and of those close to him, to reach this dream. And in his want of power Aximander grew paranoid and insane. At the height of this frenzy, Aximander began executing his close subjects and even his son, Carpus, fearing they would betray him.
However, his efforts paid off, and eventually the kingdom spread throughout the world, becoming an empire, heralding an age of technology and unlimited power.
Then one day, the world was thrown into chaos as the dead rose and tore the cities down. This army of the dead was lead by none other than the emperor's son, and accompanied by those that fell with him during the war.
When the empire had been crushed into the earth, the the undead army fell where they stood with it, and life began anew.
Everyone thought of this tale as a fantastic story, symbolic of the folly of reaching to high to the heavens, of betrayal and of revenge. This was so, until, history began to repeat.
CharactersTychoTycho was adopted into the Talon at a young age, becoming the organization's youngest disciple. He trained from the outset to wield the biggest sword he could carry, against the advice of his teacher.
With the start of the demon war the Talon made efforts to learn of the enemy through surveillance. Their last effort was in joining the United Earth Armies at the battle of Galdebra. Tycho lost everyone he knew in that battle, and having nothing left, driven by rage, he swore to destroy the demonic oppression or die trying.
AdostreusAdostreus is the aging, adamant leader of the Talon, an organization dedicated to preserving the teachings of the old philosophers, and the study of martial arts and swordsmanship. Having the knowledge of the ancient stories, he wondered of the connection between the demonic forces and the closely matching descriptions in the the old writings. He engaged the Talon in reconnaissance of the forces, to learn of their weaknesses. He tried to persuade the warring kingdoms to join against the demonic army while warning them not to engage if possible, without knowing their enemy.
Adostreus dissapeared in the battle of Galdbra and is presumed dead.
CarpusIt is not known whether the figure leading the demonic forces is truly Carpus of legend, but the destruction in his wake leads everyone to assume it is so.
