Lore and Legends

## Lys the Dragonslayer

Lys was the Chosen of Eldione who slew the Great Dragon Inaintet, herald of destruction, and saved Karnath in the Seluyara Saga.

## King Leon and Saint Chelone

Reference this post for the story.

You know Queen Fiya was the catalyst of the events that led to King Leon killing Saint Chelone, and that she forcibly pulled Inaintet from Heaven even though Eldione did not send her.

## The Vanishing of the Star Elves

Nobody knows for sure what happened to the Star Elves, but one day all their marvels flared with great power... and then went haywire, this phenomena created Wild Magic - irrevocably changing the way magic functioned across the entirety of Orre, even people on other continents said their magic became different and according to the people of Sinsay it was even weakened, as though too much magic was drawn upon at once and the reserves in all the world were drained considerably and that it would take many thousands of years to regain it.

You have learned through your travels that during the time of the Star Elves the Karnathi Gods were incredibly active - just as they are now - and gave the Star Elves great power and wisdom, and that somehow they brought their own doom upon themselves... likely by being tricked by the Trickster. And that in one night they all vanished, but the Font claims one yet lives.

## Urs'ati

In the Vitara Saga a great calamity occurred on the Distant Continent, the fires could be seen from Karnath - burning for many years, and even now you can see the glow on the horizon if you look for it. Survivors only told of a great Beast, "Urs'ati" it came to be known as and eventually this was perceived to be the Sol word for beast itself, destroying everything and raising unholy beasts from the ground.

A lot of the history of this is shrouded in myth, some say a forbidden love summoned a great monster in retribution for a wronging others say it was punishment to the Sun Elves for their ruthless conquest. But all that's known for sure is that Urs'ati is an observable phenomenon.

Sailors that go too close to the Distant Continent say there's a massive beast practically made of lava that languishes in the former capital of Solasi - the water is warm and the closer you get the hotter it gets until its boiling. You hear a psychic scream in your head if you so much as set foot on the continent - it is practically indiscernible but full of sorrow and fury. It's enough to drive people mad, and if that doesn't kill them the strange monsters roving the blackened continent will.

## Calycrist and Katellig

Calycrist was the Dragon Queen and Katellig was her daughter. Katellig was cursed to become human by the then Archmage of Norley and made to be his bride - this enraged Calycrist, but in truth Katellig had requested to become human... and in developing the true polymorph spell the pair had fallen in love.

Calycrist tried to convince Katellig to return, but her daughter refused and so Calycrist told the Archmage, either return her daughter to her rightful form or she would rally the dragons and burn Norley to the ground.

The Archmage, being a dutiful citizen, tried to convince his wife to return - stating that it was for the good of everyone and though he would miss Katellig they could still meet... their love could transcend the boundaries.

Katellig, however, disagreed - Calycrist couldn't rally the dragons if she wasn't a dragon, after all. So in the night she took a scroll of the true polymorph spell and found her mother, claiming she was ready to turn back. She read the spell aloud and transformed Calycrist into a human.

What happened after that is lost to history.
