Legend of the Blood Reign Raiders:
Many tales speak of the Blood Reign Raiders. A collection of obsessive, money loving outcasts that took to the skies. Led by the infamous Captain Tal-Oe, these sky pirates sail across the stars in search of the greatest treasures the realm of magic hides. They plunder in the night and ransack villages for all their worth, killing anyone that gets in their way.
It was on one of these deadly nights, in a village outside the city of
Birohhal, the greedy captain was told of an ancient treasure. One that would grant him the ability to transform metals into gold. The greatest magic of all, transmutation. And all of that contained in a single glass scroll, hidden in uncharted waters.
So the captain rallied his crew and they cast away into the skies in search of the scroll of transmutation. They searched and they searched. High and low. Land, sky and sea. Everywhere the legends spoke of, they ventured. After years of searching, the captain was about to admit defeat. But the winds took a dark turn, the clouds turned black and flashes of light trembled the decks. The Blood Stained Ruby was swept by the storm, straight into the jaws of fearsome sky creatures. Sauratar.
With poor conditions, the odds stacked against them, the raiders stood tall and dove head first into battle with the monsters from above. But it proved too deadly, even for the ruthless captain. The crew perished and the captain went down with his ship, falling from the clouds and crashing into the land below.
Many believe that to be the end of the story, but that wouldn't be telling the truth. See a ship of
Gillan sailors found the Blood Stained Ruby in all its decay. Broken and splintered on an island in the
Untouched Lands. Amongst the rubble lay a weak and feeble man. A man not covered in scars and wounds but instead rips and tears in the flesh replaced with fractured glass and crystal. Even in his unconscious state, he grasped tight onto a glass scroll in pristine condition.
The Gillan returned him to the nearest port they would, confirming this to be the sky pirate Captain Tal-Oe himself. A once feared man, now left in a fragile state, both physically and mentally. People say he hides himself away in a replica of his wrecked ship, babbling about the scroll, a curse and a language long forgotten. Waiting for the day when he can return to the skies and become the master of the scroll.
