First-Flames: Difference between revisions

The '''First-Flames''' were the first deities chosen by their siblings in '''[[Yedistren]]''' to lead the unfallen spirits before mortality. As the first to take mortal vessels, they became the '''Elder Sherok''', wielding near-divine power as '''lawgivers, guardians, and enforcers of divine will''' under the command of '''[[Meera Jenlek|The Mother]] and [[Merrik Jenlek|The Father]]'''.

Their leadership established the '''Golden Age''', a time of prosperity for the '''Free Species'''. However, their rule—originally a benevolent dictatorship—became flawed, breeding resentment among the [[High Valorèin]], leading to rebellion, the fall of the [[Sherok Empire]], and their '''self-imposed exile'''. Their most infamous act was the '''Cursing of the High Valorèin''', a deed they would later deeply regret.

After the defeat of [[The Malismorâ]], the First-Flames purified the [[Valorèin]] and ultimately '''chose to transcend'''. Before their ascension, they performed their final miracle—the '''resurrection of [[Merik Teslek]]''', the Chosen Hero.

Tensions exploded when [[The Malismorâ]]—once a trusted figure—was exiled for attempting to '''reopen the sealed Black Hole to [[Gozog'nok]]'''. He '''corrupted the Queen of the [[High Valorèin]]''', whose Lifemate, [[Lodrik Velarus|King Lodrik]], had been '''executed for dissent'''.

* The '''[[High Valorèin]]''', under '''[[Onarèa Velorn|Queen Onarèa]]''', '''stormed the [[Crystal Citadel]]''', burning it to the ground.   

=== '''The Cursing of the High Valorèin''' ===

In desperation, the First-Flames '''uttered a forbidden Eldritch incantation''', cursing the '''High Valorèin''':   

* Many succumbed to '''[[Rampancy (Valorèin)|Rampancy]]''', losing their minds.   

* Only '''[[Lifemates (Valorèin)|Lifemates]], young adults, and children''' were spared.   

* They lifted the Curse of the [[High Valorèin]], transforming them into the '''[[Neo Valorèin]]'''.
