Anju of Edgestar

Anju was a canine shifter that was born in the city Edgestar on Laflinton’s west side. She was born in trouble times. A kingdom from north by the mountains had been attacking the Edgestarlins kingdom on and off 200 years. Anju’s family had been apart of the royal court of Edgestar since the first king. Aldo was Anju’s older twin brother. As it was time of war both were trained but only Aldo was expected to fight. Aldo and Anju had a younger sister and brother. One night as the king and court were celebrating the crown prince Elstan reaching the age of maturity. Elstan was only a year older then Aldo and Anju. As the celebrations were going on a legion of warriors Elderspell entered the castle and attacked the main hall. Most of the leadership and noble families were there. There was blood everywhere as Aldo, and Anju tried to get their younger siblings to safety. Suddenly Anju was knocked off to the side and fell into a hidden trap door. As the door closed behind her Anju tried to open it but was held back by the one who shoved her in, Elstan. He encouraged her to stay silent as they heard the sounds of swords clanging, screams of the women and children as they were slaughtered. Once it was over the king had been killed. Anju found the bodies of her brothers and sister along with her mother and father. The Elderspell announced that they had taken over much to the displeasure of the Edegestrlins. The next three years Anju disguises herself as an Ederspell warrior and gathers information about the lands and battle strategies against the remaining standing Edgestarlins. While Elstan gathered those of the noble families that had survived. After three years Anju, now disguised as her bother Aldo returned to Edgestar to take command of a small army that Elstan had help gather. Anju led them to take out key strongholds of the Elderspell. After takeing down three of the five strong holds of the Elderspell Elstan joins Anju in battle taking on the rest. Five years later the Elderspell king was taken captive. The queen immediately thanked Elstan and Anju for taking the king. It turned out that the king had killed her husband, the true king, and started this war for power. The Elderspell quickly had the false king killed and singed a peace treaty with Elstan. Once they returned to Edgestar it was found out that Aldo was really Anju. Many were upset at first until Elstan, now king, bestowed upon Anuju the highest title of knighthood, usually reserved for the royal family. Edgestrlin is now one of the three nations of Laflinton. Anju’s tale of bravery in overcoming the Elderspell armies and helping restore Edgestrlin is told over and over again all over Laglinton. The highest award is now named Anju star for bravery.
