Lore
Early Years
Vesper was born into the merchant clan of Kyria and was raised around the kingdom of Nautak. Growing up in a merchant clan meant traveling with his family, learning of the outdoors, and training to become a lieutenant in the clan’s private guard. Journeying to the farthest reaches of the land provided Vesper with an understanding of the harsh realities of life. As the world revealed itself to him, Vesper always tried to brighten it, however he could.
Through this deep desire to brighten the world, he came into contact with the followers of Elysium. Elysium is a force, a presence, that all their followers attest. However, their nature remains hidden, and their power unknown. The only proof of their existence is the power that their followers possess and a drive to bring all things to harmony. Vesper recognized kindred spirits amongst the followers of Elysium, and so learned from them the binding of wounds and the restoring of the soul from corruption.
The Call
One dark night, as winter crept towards spring, Vesper awoke to the sound of a great war-horn. Though he was fully awoken from this call, no one else seemed to have heard the resonating noise. The very next morning, Vesper packed his belongings and began searching for the source of the distant war-horn.
Mittelmarch
Vesper traveled through many lands, most familiar, some not. Throughout the months of searching, he never found another soul that had heard the beckoning call. One day, as he was traveling through a dense wood, his path became enveloped in fog. Unlike any kind of fog he had seen before, Vesper felt something change in the world. The air was different, the ground was well-worn from countless feet. As he now stood at the edge of a forest, a castle could be seen in the distance. In this moment, Vesper realized that his connection to Elysium had been severed, and, to his despair, a battle raged in the plain before him.
Thus, Vesper Ardina arrived in the Land Between the Lands and found a place in the halls of Mittelmarch. He now seeks to bring harmony to this new land, to reconnect with Elysium, and to master the art of combat. Through it all, a simple verse dances through his head:
Elysium walks with the warriors
She waits in the halls of the slain
Forever searching for the worthy
For those who fought through the pain
