Legend of the Seventh Sanguine Star

The myth of the Seventh Sanguine Star is a pre AAR prophecy that foretold of an Etherborn child being born into royalty. The King would hear the whispers from his court about the child's vigorous blood and that it could be used to bring back his wife the queen. In a snap impulsive move he decides to shield the child through childhood from ever learning his true purpose until he has figured out a way to use his sons blood to bring her back. Using all his free time to research the old sacred texts he finds the ritual of the Seventh Sanguine Star. On the day before the ritual is to begin the court wizard send the child into the astral plane where the wizard says he must defeat his own soul to save humanity from what he will become. The king distraught by his sons disappearance tries to fulfil the ritual either way with no effect. A thousand men lie dead on the ground before the king and in a moment of clarity realizes what he has done. In the astral plane the prince decide to not destroy himself but rather find his way out. Traveling deeper into the astral plane he goes on an adventure through a dessert plane, fighting and fleeing from the terrors of eldritch horrors. In a moment of desperation he prays to whatever is listening. The Mother Matron of Change answers his pleas and helps him escape the Astral Plane, but changes his body to become her champion. He returns and kills his father and leaves the city to wander endlessly.
The story deals with the mortal choice of doing what is the correct and good thing to do, but at personal expense. Giving in to personal gain and destroying what's around, or going with personal freedom and choosing your own path, where the outcome is up in the air.
