Name: Eroica 'Dreamthief' Gruidae
Race: Avian
Time: Morning
Current Placement: SkyRealms, Gruidae Household- Eroica's Study
After the
Obilvion Wars, rumours and myths of all sorts have sprung up. Some claim of talking phoenixes, others say equally bizarre and nonsensical things. There are those who speak of avain lore, though few have seen one and less than a handful tell the tales. The most popular story is an earthquake unearthing an Ancient temple far to the Celtland forests that has made many an adventurer drool at the glorious treasure and fame that comes from it, though the dangers that reside in it will turn away most. This rumour itself is said to have been spread by the gossiping rune dragons who flit 'round Eldemore.
That, was how Eroica learnt of the circulating story if the month from the mouths of runes chittering around the SkyRealms. When the Avian Noble first heard of the whispers, he was ignorant of them, knowing that nothing good would come out of it. However, as time went on, the persuasion of his companions and
slight longing for the Eldmore lands wore him down, which brings us to Eroica's current decision.
The early morning sun peeked through the sky as the world around began to awake. One being however, was already up and running. Neatly groomed talons click-clacked across the hallway of the Gruidae house as Eroica made his way back to his study. Wearing a light tunic embossed with gold thread and a loose pair of black harem pants, he hummed a gentle tune, wings cloaking his body as he moved. Reaching his destination, Eroica entered the study and locked the doors behind him, not wanting any to know of his plans. The
Dreamthief's study is a medium sized room with an enchanted desk and a large blackboard on the wall behind. The wall to the left consists of bookshelves stocked heavily with books on Eldemore history, magic and much more. The one on the right is an open-aired balcony that shows off the scenery of the lands outside. Like most rooms in the household, the study also has magic holding rune stones on wall holders that give off light for those that need it. Walking over to his study table, Eroica shuffles and keeps the unneeded items on his desk, replacing them with maps and books of Eldemore before settling down into the armchair behind the desk. The maps themself have been marked in the area where the rumoured temple is said to stand- the
Celtlands.
A place where rainforests hosting a plethora of rare creatures, distant mountains and deadly, mist-filled nights, only those who are hardy and adaptable by nature can thrive. The humans that live in the area are mostly fiery in hair colour and temperament, as Eroica noted from a report of life below the SkyRealms. Sighing, Eroica reminisces of days long gone where only the
trueborns of Eldemore existed, the days where the old Gods would roam amongst them freely. Shaking his head, the Noble brushes his curly hair from his face and reached down to the drawers of his desk. After taking out some unused parchment, Eroica uses a quill to jot down the various notes he had complied from memory and reports from the many griffins that roamed the lands high and low. For a long moment, only the gentle rustling of parchment and the
skirtching sound of a feather quill fills the air.
While Eroica silently debates on the pros and cons of human interaction, there is a knock on the door. Not long after, a feminine voice is heard. "
My Lord! Your breakfast is ready in the dining hall. Are you in need of anything?" The Avain's train of thoughts is broken as he replies. "
No, thank you dear, I'll be there at once!" There is an affirmative from the servant before she goes off to her duties. Staring back down at the written parchment, Eroica massages his eyes with his knuckles and places the quill down and arranges his things neatly. Standing up tall, the
Dreamthief walks back around the table, giving himself enough space for a full body stretch. With a creaking of wings and sore muscles, Eroica extends his wings and tail outwards, revelling in the aching stretch of muscles.
I'd better go for a quick flight later on. It won't do if I get cramps on my journey to the Celts later on... Eroica thought.
Ruffling his feathers and smoothing them down in an efficient way learnt from decades of experience, Eroica gives himself a quick once over as he runs his talons gently through his curly hair and neat plumage- and lets not forget the grooming of long tail feathers. After a short period of time, Eroica did a final glance to his clothes, tucked in his wings and promptly strutted off to the dining halls for his morning meal.
