Tale of the Moonlit Oracle
In the realm of Velar, there exists a captivating legend whispered among the people—a tale of the Moonlit Oracle. It is said that in the shimmering light of a full moon, the Oracle emerges from the depths of the Silver Lake to grant wisdom and visions to those who seek her guidance.
Long ago, a humble shepherd named Eldric found himself lost in the midst of a dense forest, far from his flock. As night fell, Eldric stumbled upon the mystical Silver Lake, its waters reflecting all the moon's gentle glow. Drawn by an ethereal voice calling his name, Eldric followed the enchanting melody until he reached the lake's edge.
From the depths of the Silver Lake, a figure emerged—an enchanting woman cloaked in a flowing gown adorned with moonlit patterns. She introduced herself as Selene, the Moonlit Oracle, and revealed that she held the knowledge of the past, present, and future.
Overwhelmed by the opportunity to learn the secrets of the world, Eldric humbly asked Selene for guidance. The Moonlit Oracle, touched by his sincerity, granted Eldric a single request—to be blessed with the gift of prophecy. With a gentle touch, Selene placed her hand upon Eldric's forehead, and his world transformed.
From that day forward, Eldric possessed the ability to see glimpses of the future, to unravel the threads of destiny and understand their significance. The people of Velar marveled at Eldric's newfound gift and sought his counsel in times of great need and uncertainty.
Word of Eldric's prophetic powers spread far and wide, drawing seekers from distant lands who yearned for a glimpse into their own fates. They would journey to the Silver Lake on the eve of a full moon, where Eldric would guide them in their quest for enlightenment.
Sadly it also drew the jealous gaze of the nearby rulers who all sought to control Eldric. In their struggle to capture him for their own gain he was accidently slain.
The legend of the Moonlit Oracle continues to echo through the ages, inspiring countless individuals to seek wisdom and embrace the mysteries of the universe. To many the Silver Lake remains a sacred place, its shimmering waters holding the power to unveil the secrets of the past, illuminate the present, and unveil the potential of the future.
To this day, it is said those who approach the Silver Lake under the watchful gaze of the three full moons may catch a glimpse of the Moonlit Oracle, and in her ethereal presence, find the answers they seek, and perhaps, discover a deeper understanding of their own destinies.
