Iffana Cold-Heart

Cokd-Heart Iffana

"I have seen the other side. It is cold. The snow unending. The Winter dragging forever. Those their struggle over scraps eating the last refuge one could snatch in such a hell. I escaped. That was Winter. Then it was The Wolf Lord that wanted my head. 8 packs hunted me throughout the 4 seasons till two great rotations passed. Then the Great Beast. It's mad eyes and frozen touch. The beasts it breeds in men at my heel. Then it came. The Man who has killed more men than Winter. The name that has not been forgot. As our great names fade one will never stop inspiring fear. The Bloody Nine. I watched him kill Olgef, then his son, then his daughter, his pregnant wife and his young babe. I watched him tear the babe out laughing and turn life to pulp. Kieldman Murr the new king of Ingmennium as people begin to say ordered him after me and he broke me apart. I should have died but then the Bloody Nine fell. From The Greffian Fall. He is dead. No one could survive that and now Kieldman thinks me dead and also his soldier. That is what I thought. I was wrong. The Bloody Nine didn't try to kill me for Murr but because I was there. He had been cut off, Cut out and threatened by Murr with death if he didn't leave Ingmennium. I have seen beastmen, fae lords, deamons and devils. I have seen the worst of all beings. The worst... The Worst would be Ninefingers."- The Death of Cold-Heart.
