Exerpt from The Tales of Loche

Cuts deep like oceans echo, the crescent-shaped blade slit Doran Loches throat. Quick, his body slumped against the alabaster floor of the Reun castle, blood soaking into the crevasses between the tiles. A numbing silence caught the soldiers fighting nearby, their duty cut short before them, their king forlorn. The air grew malaise as the soldiers one after one dropped their weapons, sending them crashing to the ground. Sounds of clashing metal grew into cries of victory, which grew into solemn mourning and were then forgotten. The Loche family was no more, and an era of peace was upon the Reunian countryside, as it had been once before. The statues and monuments of the Loche family line were demolished and replaced with depictions of the new king's line. Songs were written, plays were acted, tales were told only to fade into obscurity, forever forlorn the Loche line lay in shambles. To the new dawn rise Queen Nianna Mahelecho, The Steadfast Conquerer.
