Eclipsed Harmony Nexus Prophecy

In the twilight of ages, when the blood of an orc and an elf shall intertwine, a child shall emerge, a living bridge between the two races. Born of discord and love, this progeny shall bear the burdens of both kin. From their veins shall flow the essence of conflict, and in their heart, the struggle for harmony shall take root.   As the moon waxes and wanes, so too shall this child's destiny undulate. A harbinger of chaos, their presence shall sow seeds of strife that pierce deep into the roots of their origins. Yet, within this tumult, a glimmer of hope shall sprout.   For in their veins, the alchemy of orcish strength and elven grace shall converge. A tempest of change shall be unleashed, shaking the foundations of both races. It is in this crucible of duality that the child shall find purpose.   To destroy the chains that bind their kindred, the child must embrace the paradox within. To save what remains, they must navigate the labyrinth of enmity and weave a tapestry of unity.   In the final reckoning, with the stars of The Night Lands standing as witnesses, the child shall decide the fate of orc and elf alike. A phoenix rising from the ashes, or a harbinger of perpetual dusk; the prophecy hinges on the choices of this extraordinary soul.

This is the prophecy was shown during the blood ritual. It led to the law for each race that forbid interracial relations. They named mixed breeds Saphine and ordered that any born were to be killed right after birth.   Orcs banish the female from the tribe but not before marking her for her crime.   The Elf King ordered that any female who has a Saphine is to be killed right along with the baby.
