Story: Following the racial discrimination and false accusations of theft and murder, a bond was formed between two young wood elves, Folre Qinren and Vaeri Trisvalur whilst traveling together within Minstrel. Fearing for their lives the couple fled from Minstrel hoping to avoid prosecution for falsing being labeled criminals by humans in the area. With bounties being swiftly established on the two, the couple traveled by land crossing the dusty plains of Desierto continuing to travel further and further into the -unknown only to stop at Sin. Reaching the foreign country, the couple struggled to make it their home with the unusual customs, language, and religion of Sin being a complete contrast with their own. Despite this, they made this place a home learning the language and adopting the religion in appearance only.
A child was born many decades after the couple made Sin their home. Unfortunately for the unsuspecting new family, the child was born with a life-threatening heart defect. Unable to return to their homeland to heal their sick child and isolated from Sinese society, the couple struggled to survive with the ailing child. It was only through the generosity of monks that their child survived but at a steep cost, their child's mortal soul. The monks were in reality worshippers of a Sin quasi-immortal wyvern, Qinglong, who was ending their life cycle to begin anew. A key requisite was the soul of a child born under a blue moon, unfortunately, this was the very case with the family.
And so ever since that fateful day, they had not seen or heard from their daughter. In the fifteen years since then and now, they had struggled to recover their daughter from the grasp of the cultists. Diplomats, Mercenaries, offers of gold, and tributes all in vain. However, some hope grew with the news of one man's arrival in the strange land.
