Einglemir, the Night Walker

Stories seep out from multiple cultures Isazol like a fog disconcerted by morning, wanting to keep the darkness for as long as possible. The Night Walker, as the stories call them, is a presence roaming the woods, seeking game hidden from the world, seeking revenge for their death, lost in soul, lost in the shadows that trail them, an omen of impending doom.  

The Truth

Einglemir is an Isynx born over two thousand years ago. They came from nobility, an acclaimed hunter of their time. But tragedy struck them when they discovered their nya. They were consumed by darkness, leaving their home to bring daylight back to their family. In the woods, they wandered, eventually going mad to the shadows.  

Shadows

Englemir should long have long since died. That's where the rumors began. Travel the woods and you may cross their lonely path. The sayk will vanish, the trees around will lose hue, a darkness will encroach. Then, one will encounter the Night Walker. They may speak to, they may process. If they do speak, their rarely used voice will roll, lurking behind every tree. They are md, one cannot expect what will happen when encountering the Night Walker. One must be prepared to die when encountering the night walker, there is not much one can do to them. Whatever keeps them alive will spell the doom of others.

The shadows they control, or that control them, exert a force stories tell is of the void.
