Viswan Elson, Slayer of The Goddess Xi'on

Written by thatfrenchhorn

Legends never die...well, except when they do something stupid, and then they do. Like my twin, slayer of the Goddess Xi'on, and an all-time idiot.

— Saykin Elson, twin of Viswan Elson, Lead Cyborg Revolutionary

On the Day of Darkenesse, when the League of Planets fell apart, Viswan Elson broke into the palace of Xi'on. They then killed the two palace protectors with a spellsilver mace. Once they had cut down the guards, they made their way to the Chamber hall where Xi'on resided, using their resistance to magic to avoid Xi'on's attacks. There, they slayed Xi'on using ȁ̸̔k̵͂̊d̶̋̉j̴̆̑ ̸̛͔a̴͊͗e̵̼̊i̸͎̍a̴̿̊s̵̒͋. Once Xi'on was killed, the League Of Planets fell into disarray. Viswan was killed by the protector reinforcements that came in, however their story lives on, being told by those who are fighting with the revolution to help cyborgs gain basic rights.

Summary

On the day of Darkenesse, at the Fateful Houre, Viswan Elson snuck into the Palace of Xi'on, using a blade of Spellsilver. They stabbed Xi'on in the heart, upsetting the balance of the world. Xi'on's death crumbled the Palace, as well as the fragile peace of the League Of Planets. Xi'on's home planet, Xayin crumbled into pieces, erasing from the universe.

Viswan was killed in a heartbeat, their body scattered across the universe, a piece of their body landing on each of the twelve planets of the League. Their robotic arm fell on the planet Fayrir, where the cyborg revolution for equal rights rose up. Some say that their robotic arm falling on Fayrir destined it to be the planet of the cyborg revolution.

Historical Basis

The legend is based almost entirely off of the events of Viswan Elson slaying the goddess Xi'on. The government however, manipulates much of the story for their own benefit. There is, however, one part of the legend that only one person knows, and is spreading the true story throughout the revolution.

Spread

The myth is spread throughout all Fayrian history books, the first book containing it being the one that Saykin Elson had written the legend of their Twin of Fire in.

I knew that my sibling's story would be important later. So I wrote it down. First in my journal, then in the margins of my history book, then I spray-painted it on a wall, so everyone would know how hard my sibling had fought for our rights. Soon, when I turned in my history book, our teachers asked me about Viswan's story. I told my teachers everything, and they asked me to write down Viswan's story. So it could be wide-spread. So Viswan's story would be known. I wanted my sibling's story to be heard. I wanted people to understand how hard my dear twin had fought.

Variations & Mutation

Only one person knows the true story of Viswan Elson, Saykin Elson, their twin. The government has removed any and all sensitive information, such as the weapon used, from the Legend of Viswan Elson.

The Chamber of Fayrir retains all right to manipulate the Legend of Viswan Elson. The story must be shaped in such a way that our people do not get any malicious ideas, and attempt to rise up against the Chamber.

— The Chancellor Of Fayrir

Xi'on

The tyrannical leader of the League of Planets, who often used her power to suppress any change that the society either demanded or needed. She had a personal grudge against any and all cyborgs, and used their strength and brains for manual labor as well as factory work. After thousands of years of the League of Planets being under her tyrannical reign, Viswan Elson gathered a small group of cyborg revolutionaries to carry out the plan that they had formulated.

The League Of Planets

The League Of Planets was Fayrir's main government organization. It was started by Xi'on, and it united all twelve planets of the Universearium. Fayrir was the secondary capitol planet before the League was disbanded on the Day Of Darkenesse. Xi'on was the force keeping the League tethered together.

The League Of Planets was created solely to bring peace among the Twelve Planets across the Universearium.

The blasted government s'always tryn'a quench our revolution! Cyborgs have rights, damnit! And it's not as if some holy-ass goddess-slayer can change the fact that cyborgs will be, and always have been mistreated and restrained! CURSES!
