The Wrath of Tan
The Isle of DarknessThe Isle of Darkness slept beneath a crimson moon, its shores whispering in the language of tides and memory.Here, the air itself seemed sentient, alive with the sighs of ancient vows and broken destinies.It was a forbidden place for non-Liroids, half grave, half cradle, where Liroid males and concubines lived and trained, where the goddess’s shadow was thickest.It was full of Luxury and wealth. Everyone here was treated as royalty.On that night, a storm gathered without wind. The lilies that grew along the cliffs folded their petals tight, sensing the approach of a god.The Coming of TanFrom the far east came Tan, the Crane God of Trouble, his form a storm of gold and flame.His many eyes glimmered with fury, his wings cutting through the dark like blades of dawn.He had learned from one of his concubines’ sons that a child of his blood, a lesser demigoddess named Tamy, had been taken as concubine by a Liroid.To Tan, it was treachery.To his pride, it was u
The Laws of the Tar
The Council of the AcademyThe bells of Cellok rang twelve times, each note drawn from silver wind.From every guild, from every isle, the Liroids gathered. The Academy stood at the center of the valley like a dark heart pulsing with moonlight. Its spires were carved with lilies and constellations; its gates were guarded by statues of the first ancestors, Heartless, Darkside, and Death, each wreathed in shadow and flame.At the apex of the marble dais stood Heartless, first Headmistress of the Liroid Academy, daughter of Evilside herself, heir to both grief and sorrow. Her eyes glimmered like the horizon before a storm, her robes stitched with silver runes of obedience and balance.Behind her loomed the carved effigy of Evilside, the Tree Goddess, her arms outstretched in eternal watch. The air trembled with sanctity. To speak beneath her likeness was to have every word weighed by divine will.The Dispute of the Divine LineAt Heartless’s right stood Flavor Liroid, the radiant lord of
The Age of the Guilds
A Century of LiliesA hundred years had folded over Cellok like pages of a dream.Where once a single temple stood, whole cities now glittered, spires of black marble, bridges laced with silver vines, academies built around pools of lilies that shone even in rain.The Liroids had become not just a people but a civilization: priests and healers, hunters and spies, artisans and assassins.Every path led back to the Tree.From her throne beneath its roots, Evilside watched with the still pride of a gardener who sees her garden bloom into forests.The Line of Bright WroughtDread, Lady of BreedingBright Wrought’s eldest, Dread, had her mother’s patience and her grandmother Love’s wisdom.She married Focal of Fo, demigod son of Fin of Water, and ruled the valley of tides where the lilies touched the sea.Together, they founded the Lineage Chambers, a house that studied blood and inheritance, not for vanity, but to preserve harmony between divine and mortal veins. They called it The Isle o
The Seeds of Empire
The Morning AfterDawn broke over Cellok in a hush of pale gold. The lilies still glowed faintly from the night’s blessings, their petals heavy with dew and memory. The valley smelled of incense and new beginnings.The feast fires had gone out, leaving the air warm with peace. The guests, gods, mortals, and shadows alike, had begun to depart. Only the newlyweds and their kin remained beneath the vast tree that crowned the valley.Bright Wrought sat quietly beside her cousin, their gowns spread like pools of light and flame across the grass. For the first time in years, there was no ceremony, no demand, only the stillness after purpose fulfilled.Bright Wrath’s ChoiceWhen the silence stretched, Bright Wrath spoke first. “I will not leave,” she said simply. “Shiwa returns to Shine tomorrow, but my heart tells me to stay. The lilies have called my name too long for me to turn away.”Hate looked at her daughter in surprise. “Stay? Why?”“To learn what I am,” Wrath said. “To train as thos
The Twin Weddings
The Valley of Silver LiliesThe valley of Cellok glimmered beneath a moon the colour of polished steel. Every petal of Evilside’s lilies gave off a pale light, turning the meadows into a sea of living stars. High above, the branches of the sacred tree arched like a cathedral of shadow and silver.It was a Liroid wedding night, and the whole valley seemed to hold its breath.From the eastern ridge came the guests, Liroids wrapped in veils of dusk, gods shimmering like constellations given flesh, mortals bearing garlands of lilies. The air was thick with incense and memory. For the first time since the curse of old, joy and peace shared the same altar.The Procession of BridesMusic rose: flutes of hollow crystal, drums woven from tide shells.Then came the brides.Bright Wrought stepped first, her gown flowing like the night sky itself, stitched with constellations that glowed softly in lavender and silver. The crescent-moon crown on her brow mirrored the eclipse blooming above the val
The Children of the Marks
(Part III – The Celestial Gowns)The Gathering of RealmsThe year of the twin weddings arrived with omens of calm skies and twin moons. Every realm, the seas of Civax, the fires of Shill, even the high mirrors of Kovu, sent emissaries to Cellok. The Tree Goddess herself had blessed the unions: Bright Wrought to the lord of Kiria’s house, Bright Wrath to the demigod Shiwa of Shine.Word of Kiria’s old vision still lingered like a half-remembered song, and some gods watched the preparations with uneasy fascination. Could these brides be the beginning of what he saw?Evilside only smiled. “Let the lilies bloom,” she said. “What is planted in light cannot hide forever.”Arrival of the GownsOn the eve of the ceremony, a soft wind swept through the valley. From its heart emerged Moon, the first priestess, mother of Blood, great-grandmother of the brides. She came bearing two chests of lightwood wrapped in silver thread.“These were sewn not by hands alone,” she said, opening the lids, “but
