Eliana Quilaren
The Blackrazor, Queen of the Void
[WIP]
Backstory
Eliana’s birth was the result of an unlikely union between the daughter of a high born wood elf family who ruled over the forest of Faedruin and the human son of a family of loggers who lived on the far edge of Falinor. Eliana grew up on the border of these two kingdoms, in the home her father had built with the skilled hands of an artisan woodworker. He made a small living in trade, but they mostly survived off what her mother hunted and foraged. It was a happy childhood, if a rather lonely one. In her eleventh year, a band of marauding orcs attacked the nearby village. Her parents rushed to aid the villagers, commanding her to remain home, hidden. Unable to sit still as the screams of terror and agony filled the night air, she ran to the village, only to stumble upon her father, facing down several orcs with his great axe. She watched, petrified, as her father was hewn by the brutal stroke of an axe. She tried to fight, loosing arrows from her child’s bow at the orcs who felled her father. As the orcs rushed towards her, her mother appeared. She stood against the orcs, fighting them off with her eleven blade as she urged Eliana to run. Unable to overcome her terror, she did as she was told, running for hours without stopping, deep into Faedruin. She spent the night curled up on the damp forest floor, shaking uncontrollably. When she gathered the strength to return to the village the next day, she found her father’s family preparing his body for burial. The orcs had gone, satisfied with their carnage. Her mother was nowhere to be found. Though her father’s family tried to take her in, Eliana could not remain with them so near the site of her father’s demise. She traveled all throughout Falinor, asking everywhere after news of the orcs and for the whereabouts of her mother, with little success. On her journey she met a ranger who saw great potential in her. They trained her for many years until she was capable enough to survive on her own, then parted ways. Though it has now been twelve years since she last saw her mother, Eliana has not given up hope of finding her. Having found no answers in Falinor, she has decided to make for the Last Rest Tavern to search for signs that perhaps her mother may have gone to the Reach Unsung. No matter how dark the path, Eliana is determined to find her.A Song of Stars & Silence
grief is a void
no innumerable galaxies of stars
alight with their celestial fire
can illuminate its depths still, her soul converses
trading atoms for promises
bargaining with the cosmos
in exchange for a glimmer darkness stalks her
its sordid breath upon her neck
whispering sweet songs in her ear
of vengeance and of peace hope burns inexorable
it needs no fuel, no material
on which to build its immortal pyre
brighter than any cosmic flame her blade balances
the universe along its edge
life and death in its caress
a sacred exorcism godless, she prays
every swordstroke a litany
wrapping emptiness around herself
like a shroud its touch is gentle
holding her like a mother’s embrace
and when she severs from herself
she opens another’s eyes endless pain unravels
disappearing down an eternal corridor
transient as breath leaving a body
peace comes softly the void becomes her
she spreads herself across the cosmos
suffusing every atom of the universe
with star fire
