In the mythical land of Virelia, where immense silver trees sway under violet moons, one can find the legend: Tyvoria Drystok, Keeper of the Crystal Flame. This enigmatic figure at once inspires awe, dread, and reverence since she embodies a reality that transcends myth. Ultimately, Tyvoria is the last Sentinel of the vanished world and wields a power that can either save or obliterate shattered existence.
The Legend Begins
Once upon a time, in Virelia, the timeless legend was created long before the great Collapse. At the heart of the Skyforge, an exceptional fire was forged which possessed the ability to bend time, heal the dying, or bring destruction. However, The Obsidian Spire encapsulated Elandor’s city, shielding ethereal fire and bestowing it with protection using the Flamekeepers. They were sworn to protect the balance of realms.
Hollow Reign stumbled upon the Flamekeepers and their cruel dominion led to dark mages seeking to possess the fire’s destructive force. They brought a tragic fate of near loss over the sacred fire, but out of the essence, always achieved through vengeance. Only one flamekeeper was destined and granted life: Tyvoria Drystok, a young who was gifted with predestined pearls of lineage as coursing through her veins lied a riddle even she was oblivious to.
The Orphaned Guardian
The story goes that Tyvoria was abandoned at birth, yet she was brought up in the deserted Flamekeeper Temple, where her affinity with the Crystal Flame became clear at the tender age of five. Unlike most who would have to endure trying to withstand its heat, Tyvoria effortlessly summoned small flames that danced from her hands to speak in whispers only she could hear.
After the order she belonged to was brutally massacred, she disappeared from recorded history. The two prevailing thoughts regarding her fate seem to be either assuming she perished in the Battle of Broken Dawn or the opposing theory that she enrained herself in the Void Realms so that no one could taint it with corruption.
No one assumed that she powerfully bound the Crystal Flame to her soul, and as a result, Tyvoria would be its Keeper for all of eternity.
Return of the Hollow Reign
Decades Passed. A sentence that seems frustratingly vague, moldable to interpretation, and vague in association. Vague is not an option that would solve for the fraying of once golden kingdoms. Alongside the void emerging at the borders of each kingdom, this domain fueling the flame embracing Hollow reign was only a calamitous addition. Whispers began to stir as dark veils coated the skies,Corruption reigned.
The burning ember of hope known as Halverun was soon quenched, and in place, lay smoldering ashes alongside an army of cursed Wraithbound soldiers. From within the aftermath stood a figure clothed in flame and ash, face disfigured yet possessing eyes likened boundless sapphire. The fierce gales swept her locks, and like smoke fuses, she rekindled the heartfire lanterns that for centuries lay dormant.
What few could grasp, her dominion let her wield the flame to the fullest extent. Ruling pieces of the lifeless Wraithbound amassed at her fingertips, only to breathe life, scorching winds, igniting ancient hearthfire, granting voice back to secrets unheard for ages having light return alongside liquid sapphire mist. Shards of the crystal flame petitioning fractures in Virelia, dominion balance preempt Hollow Reign consuming the world once more.
The Strain of Authority
But the Crystal Flame is no simple weapon. It recalls honor, betrayal, and blood. It speaks to Tyvoria, whether she bothers to listen or not. Each use exhausts her and leaves her devoid of the comfort of her own reminiscences. She recalls lives she never lived, wars she never waged, and decisions she never made.
Wielding the grievous burden dooms the Keeper to a heavy price: Solitude. In addition, this flame-imbued scar makes it too dangerous for her to come anywhere near other people, as touching another would mean risking burning them. Nowadays, she’s accompanied by Alorik, a former Flamekeeper and now a Ranger, who silently seems to carry a portion of her heart with him.
The more she delves deeper into her mission, the more volatile and grimmer the Flame becomes. Can she still stand beneath its weight without being completely consumed from the inside out?
Fate and Heritage
Tyvoria is, for many, undeservedly considered to be the revived form of the very first lightweaver of the Virelia civilization. This legendary creature is said to have forged the Crystal Flame. Whether this is true or fable, it hardly matters. She’s always had this unnatural air of inevitability combined with an exhaustingly projected destiny. It paints a picture of her embarking upon a journey of not just war, resistance and rebellion but one of self exploration.
Will she fight to restore the Flame and awaken the required ancient magic to save the realm? Or will she be forced to extinguish it forever, ending magic as Virelia knows it?
In an age of darkness, Tyvoria Drystok is both the torchbearer and flame.
