Athen'dar

The Athen’dar

The Bright Ones, after the creation of the worlds felt like they needed guardians to watch over the lives they created. Each Bright One ( including Dalladin and Berrest ) created a Athen’dar to their own vision, shaping them how they had wanted them to be.

Dalladin was first to create one, and he chose to shape a large white wolf as large as a man on all four. The wolf’s name was Callagoth, and within him Dalladin imbued ambition and pride. Next came Elden who created a large stag with long and majestic horns. The stag represented swiftness and graciousness. And so each of the Bright Ones created their own Athen’dar ( Elvish for Animal Protector ) until at last came Berrest, who created a single raven.

However, when Dalladin and Berrest were banished their Athen’dar turned against the Bright Ones and instead of being protectors they became aggressors.

The other Athen’dar hunted them relentlessly but they never found the Athen’fellen. ( fellen is fallen ).

Rumor and legend says that they retreated to the winding caves and tunnel networks beneath Gelduran.

Legend and myth states that Callgoth is protecting the gates to the Agonizing Realms where as the raven Iskmir is constantly gathering information for his masters.
