Steve tells me to find a comfortable position, because what he is about to tell me will last a while, he begins to tell me that he is the last descendant of a race of elves who lived in the sacred forest of Ignal, some years ago war broke out across the continent, because the beliefs of the predominant religious group clashed with the progressive ideals of the kingdom of the infernal, the beliefs of this religion encourages that years ago there were two brothers who possessed enormous power, one of them was called Zephyr and the other Pyrrhus.
It is believed that they traveled through the different worlds, until they decided to start a civilization, but the creatures that inhabited this world, did not have the necessary knowledge to start a vast civilization, it is said that they gathered their forces to provide intelligence to all those wild beings.
These brothers created a civilization and endowed with intelligence to those creatures, that civilization prospered in a disproportionate way, filled with riches and gold that were found when entering the mines, some say that the brothers had two different points of view, Zephyr believed that the offerings were not necessary because they to create and endow intelligence considered them self-sufficient and these were equal to them, while Pyrrhus believed that they were useful tools, and that they deserved those offerings.
Many years passed in which the beings of this world, began to believe that they could be free and that they did not need the blessings of these gods, the brothers heard rumors, one of them was furious and wanted to finish with the beings in a violent way while the other was in favor that it was time to leave this world.
It is said that there was a battle between the brothers, the fate of this world was in danger, some beings believed that it was time to be free and would support the brother who wanted to leave the planet, while others believed that they could appease the anger Pyrrhus giving him absolute obedience while Zephyr was treated as a cruel god who wanted to leave them abandoned without caring about their fate.
The battle progressed leaving thousands of corpses scattered on the battlefield, while the brothers shed their blood, it is believed that this war lasted for 10 years, many lives were lost during this conflict, until the end of that historic event was nearing its end, Pyrrhus deceived his brother and betrayed the love that Zephyr still retained during the battle, Pyrrhus realized that the obedience and faith of the different beings gave him some advantage.
Zephyr cornered his brother with a dagger in his left hand and tried to kill him, but the memories of his childhood made him hesitate, he threw the dagger away and regretted the decision he was about to take, with tears in his eyes he asked for a sincere apology and demanded that they both leave this cursed land that had caused them so much pain.
He offered his hand to support him so that Pyrrhus could stand up, the war ended Zephyr when he considered himself the winner tried to embrace his brother, when he suddenly formed a spear with the magic he had collected by the devotion of the stupid beings of this planet, and stabbed his brother, but he knew that it would provoke the wrath of the gods benedictm, so he planned to lock his brother in the dungeon of the fallen.
This spear drained the life force, while ropes held and imprisoned his brother for eternity, it is said that millions of years passed, while faith in Pyrrhus was increasing, the church of eradication was created, the purpose of this church was to promote the god Zephyr was a demon who tried to devour everything in its path, while Pyrrhus was the savior.
What I have just told you is the true story of what happened at the beginning of time, it is clear to tell you that this story is persecuted, and anyone who spreads it is condemned to death for spreading lies and blasphemies to the god Pyrrhus mentioned Steve, but it tells me that the story continues, returning to the original story about 300 years ago the church began to segregate racially, all the subhumans who believed in the return of the god Zephyr.
The subhumans were mostly annihilated, the few who survived were exiled to the lands now known as the wasteland of the infernal, while others were baptized in the name of god, and were condemned to trample their history and become devotees, many of these still retain the hope that someone can free their people from the bonds that long ago were placed by the church.
100 years ago a war broke out between the continents of the infernals and the chosen ones of God, the infrahumans were catalogued as the sons of evil, they were condemned to fight against themselves, sons spilled the blood of their own parents, friends were forced to devour the fallen, children were burned at the stake, I wish I could forget those horrors, the beautiful streets of the capital were covered with corpses. The few who survived abandoned their humanity and were traded like cattle, others denied their bad luck and ended their own lives.
During this conflict he was sold as a slave to a family who treated him like an animal. For years he was forced to work in a mine, many years passed until suddenly a small light came to his cell, an elf who was acquired by the duke to satisfy his most twisted desires, this elf was raped and tortured to exhaustion, her nipples were marked with a hot iron in this iron could see the seal of the family, was marked as one more cattle.
After being outraged by several beast men, to satiate the carnal pleasures of the duke, were many months of abuse, until the duke got tired and got a new toy, for many months to heal his wounds, lost his smile, day after day, trying to get his smile back, could not bear to see a girl lose her smile and see her spirit wither and die with the passage of time.
Every day I prayed with disdain that she could see the light of day again, she lost her appetite, she barely ingested food, her stomach grumbled daily, I could not bear her misery, I thought of ending her suffering as she hallucinated those nights of abuse.
All this pain was not alien to me, I could feel her pain, before the beginning of the war I bought this land, for months I devised a way for her to escape and start over, I looked for a way for her to start gaining weight so that she would have enough strength to run as fast as she could, her ribs would be marked when she walked, I threatened her for months, telling her that if she did not eat she would tell the duke that she wanted to feel the warmth of many men. She remembered the horror and ingested the food, although little by little she began to awaken a rational hatred towards me, although this did not matter to me, I wanted her to obtain her freedom, for months I continued with my plan until the day came, for a few weeks I tried to explore the mine to find a way to escape, during my search for minerals I found an abandoned rail road, this road led to a small waterfall that connected with a lush forest, when I saw that there was a way to escape.
I devised a way to create a small explosion and separate the two paths, but she had to know the plan, after losing her trust, I probably had an almost impossible task ahead of me, I needed her to trust me, and to place her fate in my hands, while we slept in separate camps, Some beasts tried to take her by force, when I saw that situation I decided to take advantage, and win back her trust, I gathered the courage that I still had left, I cruelly killed each of these beasts, she remembered the constant abuse from our dear duke. She radically changed her behavior, she began to talk to me a little more, I could feel that her perception of me was improving with the passage of time, a couple of months passed in which I gradually explained my plan to escape together, without realizing that she has been in this prison for 50 years, until the day came to escape.
As part of the plan I sent her to the deepest part of the mine with some supplies that I had collected for weeks, the rations they sent us were weekly so it cost me a lot to acquire all these valuable resources, when the time came she discovered my plan to send her to the small farm that I had acquired just before the war, she was reluctant to my decision. But beyond the tears in her eyes, I began to dig to cause a landslide big enough to separate the mine into two parts, so that my partner Analise could get the freedom she had longed for, suddenly everything was silent and I could no longer hear her cry and I shouted with all my strength that someday we would see each other again.
