HeroesofChaos/ChapterTwoPrologue
And here begins the story of the Heroes of Chaos and the their grand entrance into the world at large, and of how a terrible and bitter tragedy loomed nearer and nearer on the horizon...
When the last chapter left off, the Heroes had slain Mnemon's favorite grandson and, for a time, held off the depredations of the Realm from the tiny hamlet of Eyrie. However, this was merely the beginning of a much, much grander story.
Having defeated Mnemon Rofel, and having lost Mya Brumagim in the lightning raid, it was determined that the town of Eyrie would not be able to withstand an onslaught forever. The people of Eyrie would either need to find a new home, or resign themselves to a horrible fate of Realm retaliation. The Heroes of Chaos would not be there to protect them always. In the end, Cen Brumagim matured considerably from his experiences, and thanks to the support of the Heroes he was able to convince the townsfolk to commit to a mass exodus to the island of Mako's manse, where they would make a new life for themselves, far from the prying eyes of the Realm and all others who would use them. Or so they thought...
A daring raid by the Heroes of Chaos on the port of Cherak netted them the ships requisite to move the townfolk successfully, and that was exactly what they did.
As the people were settling themselves into their new, unfamiliar home, an ominous visit from Moray Darktide brought word of the Silver Prince's tidings and an invitation to spend Calibration at his manor in Onyx. While the Heroes refused the offer as graciously as they could, lest the make a dangerous new enemy, they nonetheless were worried by what Darktide had said. It was evidently the Boddisatva Annointed by Dark Water who had informed the group of the impending disaster in Eyrie. To what scheme was the Silver Prince up to?
However that was neccessarily put aside though, in favor of a much more urgent consideration. Half of Kaiju's tribe, all of the women, were last seen on a ship to Nexus, and Kaiju was determined to unite his scattered people once more. And so, after much deliberation, the Heroes all decided that a trip to Nexus might just be in order after all. Kaiju had his people to find, Chahailis and Jasala were in search of allies, and Mako seemed to have some hidden reason for returning to the Harlot of the Yanaze as well...
And thus was the direction taken by the Heroes of Chaos, as they made their way inexorably towards Nexus, and towards fate..
Comments
It's a shame that they didn't go to Onyx, which I see as one of the most interesting settings in the game. Can we expect to see a visit to the Silver Prince in the future? - Quendalon
I certainly hope so! However, regardless, the Silver Prince hasn't forgotten about them and will appear again... - Sigilistic
