B I O G R A P H Y

"I've come into the power my brother once held and, before him, my mother and father. I sit in the same thone they once did, yet my path to this seat left my home ravaged beyond repair, drowned in rivers of blood from those who once called this place home, too. Until I draw my last breath, I will do all I can to atone for what I've done."

-

Born to Zuri and Zhu, former leaders of Clan Ironwell, Zenith and her brother Zentaro spent much of their early years living within their parent's castle. Their parents had struggled to have children, making them the only living heirs still within the territory. Loved by their people, the children spent many of their days frolicking with the other hatchlings in the clan, their parents choosing to give them a hatchlinghood like that of their people rather than one spent learning the ways of leadership. That, they thought, could come later, when both children were older and ready for the responsibilities that came with such things.

Yet that day would never come.

Tragedy struck with the force of lightning. The Temptress came in the night, her army swiftly securing the town as its inhabitants slept. The king and queen were slaughtered in their chambers, their guards dying with them. Young Zentaro was taken hostage, but Zenith was, in a way, fortunate. Several of the elders had, somehow, learned of the attack with mere minutes to spare, giving her and a loyal guard the chance to flee.

Young Zenith never could have known that horrible night would be the last she spent in that castle... and the last night she'd spend with her family.

QUOTE:

"So I just sit in my room
After hours with the moon
And think of who knows my name
Would you cry if I died?
Would you remember my face?"

_EXILE_

____Smuggled out of the territory and into the frigid expanse of the Southern Icefield, Zenith found herself with no one but her guard and a dangerous clan of battle-hardened Gaolers and Tundras for company. For years, she hid from them and The Temptress, blending into the darkness and rocks with her obsidian scales and black cloaks, finding neither friends nor foes among the ice.

____The little clan was lead by a mysterious being known only as the Keeper, one whom she never met nor cared to meet. The Keeper was viciously territorial, and knew she lived just outside of the Snowstrider's territory. Similarly, she knew death awaited her the moment she stepped into their borders. Yet it was the safest place for her to be.

____Sometime during her stay in the snowy landscape she met the one called Fingael Wardwalker, the strangest being she'd ever met, and a Snowstrider Gaoler named Gwendolyn. They were among the first of her newest allies.

_RETURN_

____Zenith did not expect to return home so soon. Only Wardwalker, Gwendolyn, and Beorn stood at her side when she returned to her wartorn home, a legion of Goetia-born behind her with only the premise of sharing a common enemy making them allies.

____It felt wrong, simply put, to have the legion hand her the throne, but she had no choice in the matter. The Goetia legion handled much of the fighting, rooting the Temptress out of Ironwell's territory, but not before the witch's Emberoids scorched the town to the earth.

____Victory, though pyrrhic, was theirs, for now. She knew the true war would never end so long as the Temptress lived.

____Blood fresh on her claws, she took the crown her mother once wore, setting it on her head for the first and last time.

"Was it all worth it? I don't know, not anymore. Perhaps it would've been better to leave things as they were. Maybe then you'd still be here, brother, and I wouldn't be alone."

Zenith stood before her brother's grave, alone save for the stars above. Only a day had passed since she exchanged her wolf-skin cloak and quiver for the finest silks and jewels still in the clan's possession and a crown she refused to wear. Only a week had passed since the end of the war, and the end of her brother's life.

"I just... don't know what to do. I did all of this to save everyone from her. To save you from her. And yet... you still died. So many died. Why...?"

She took a deep, shuddering breath. The air here... it was so warm, so different from the frigid cold that she called home for the decades that Temptress ruled, yet nothing could bring warmth to the chilling emptiness she felt within.

"WHY?!" she screamed, stiffening, claws gouging the charred earth below, no longer caring if anyone discovered her here. "Why... Why did you have to die, brother?! Why did I..."

The rage faded as swiftly as her brother's life had after that blow, sending her onto the dirt as her legs buckled, tears streaming down her face and quiet sobs wracking her body. Her breath came in broken gasps, the full gravity of it all striking her right then, and she felt the remains of her heart being rendered further apart.

"...I wonder... Did you even remember me? When you met my gaze for the first time in decades, did you know who I was? Or... or had she taken so much of you away that you no longer knew me, your sister? I just..."

"I'm sorry. I... failed you. I... failed all of you," she whispered, turning her still-tearful gaze to the sky, hoping they'd all found their peace in death.

"Are you alright?"

"I'm fine," she answered, forcing a smile. Fingael must have known it was fake judging from the look on his face, but the Spiral pressed no more.

"Zen, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, you don't need to worry."

"But-"

"Fingael, I'm fine. I promise."

"Zen. Zen, look at me. Please, please look at me."

"...I'm okay, Fin. Really."

"I don't believe you."

"Fingael-"

"Listen to me, alright?! No one's going to be okay after that. I've given you time, I've given you space, and all I've watched you do is destroy yourself even more. Yell at me all you want, I'm not leaving this time. Not until you get help."

"Fin, please, just-"

"I'm not leaving."

"I wasn't going to ask you to."

"You're lying."

"I- Well, fine! I was lying! Please, please, please Fingael, just leave! I'm... I'm..."

"I'm not leaving."

"Then... Then I... I'll make you."

"Do it, then. Take that anger of yours out on someone else."

"Fin-"

"It's all my fault, isn't it? Your brother died because of me. If I wasn't there at that battle, he'd still be here. IF I HADN'T BEEN THERE, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO K-"

"SHUT UP AND JUST LEAVE, FINGAEL!"

"Will he be alright, Zarasti?"

"He'll be fine. The cut is superficial, and Fingael is tough. My Queen... I won't ask what caused this, but I hope it serves as a lesson for you."

"Are you alright?"

"I'm fine. I've gotten worse from those damn Wartoads I fight for my work."

"Alright..."

"Are you alright, Zen?"

"I... no, no I'm not."

"I'll go with you, alright?"

"...Okay."

"Please, Fin, stay with me."

"You know I can't. I'm sorry."

"Promise you'll visit, at least?"

"Nothing in the world could stop me."
