Meet Marchen.
His legend began in a time when Gods still walked upon Avaris and called these lands home.
In a time when dragonkind was still young, they lived under constant threat of the Traitor Gods—those twisted, corrupted Gods who had fallen from glory, creating the first demons and inciting the Divine War.
A conscript of the war, Marchen rose from unknown origin to become a warrior of folktale, unmatched. A Champion of the Everlight, he faced the Sunswallower in combat. With a sword of blazing light, he alone brought the Traitor God low, forcing him to bow before him.
Tales say that Marchen killed him there, on a ruined, craggy battlefield beyond the reach of the Capital.
But one does not slay such a creature. One merely hopes to contain them.
Using all the power of the half-divinity the Everlight had given him as Her Champion, he entrapped the fallen God in divine chains. Powered by Marchen’s very being, he trapped both himself and the Sunswallower there, tying their very existences together.
Now, centuries later, he still guards the fallen God, his life tied to its own, unending. But with the Gods’ departure from the world, his power has begun to wane, and he fears the awakening of the the Sunswallower once more, unable to be repelled by his divine siblings.
So, Marchen seeks to raise an army of his own, of his children, imbued with his fleeting divine legacy—guardians to take his place if he falls and ensure the Sunswallower remains caged and the realm safe.
