Azura-Trinity was born under the 10th rising of the
moon. Born into the Isis tribe, one of the few standing tradional
darke elven tribes, she had been raised in the ways of her ancestors.
After the battle with the rampaging humans in her 5th Cycle of the Seasons,
her tribe was forced from their natural home in the Kemplur Forest next
to the Azure River, which she was named after. It was said that she
was born during a dry spell in the river, but that day it ended and the
river's spring spewed forth the most crystal clear water they'd ever seen.
The humans drove her and her tribe from her beloved
river and into the forest of El Fyr. Their new land wasn't much different
from her first home, except that it was inhabited by Faeries. They
terrorizied the tribe, destroying their structures during the night, playing
tricks on them during the day, they even would steal their food.
It took much reasoning and pleading from the colony to get the faeries
to back off.
They built a wall around their new settlement which
was infused with fae warding magic. Trin however grew lonely without
the meddlesome faeries, she would sneak out of the camp and play with them.
It didn't take much time for her to learn their unusual language.
She would play tricks on the elders when they would leave the camp on business.
Trin was extremely adventurous as a child, everyday she'd return to the
camp with another story about her day. Most people didn't leave the
camp, fearing an attack from the faeries.
The Isis tribe is a very secluded tribe, they try
do accomplish as many things as they can on their own. Certain things
they needed help with though. Like when they were building the wall
they couldn't concentrate on keeping the faeries at bay and building the
structure. So, they decided to hire some dwarves to help them build.
It took about 4 risings of the sun for it to be completed. During
these risings Trin did what she did best...explore, but now she had a friend.
She befriended a kid dwarf, her very first friend, besides the faeiries.
She tried to learn his language, but she hadn't enough time. When
the stucture was built and the dwarves left, she was very distraught...but
she got over it.
On her tenth cycle she started her magic training,
while this may be considered young in other tribes, the Isis see it as
the right time. On that day she got her faithful companion, Joltzen.
Once the bonding process was complete, Joltzen's aging slowed to match
his master, their life forces having been bound.
She studied for 5 cycles with the High Priestess
of the camp, Trinity-Falchyra, from which she took her surname. They
named her after the wise woman hoping that she would become as powerful
a sorceress as she was. Of course there were other priestesses in
traininig, but they wanted her, the child of the Azure. She felt
the pressure from her encampment and tried her best at learning the spells.
She didn't get to choose the spells that she wanted like the other priestesses,
the only thing she did get to choose was Joltzen.
She studied long and she studied hard, until her
15th cycle came to pass. On that day the camp sent her out on her
own. This had never happened before, you were supposed to study under a
Grand Priestess until you had substanstial power and could take your position,
and pass your knowledge on to new generations. But for Trin it would
be different, she was to be tested, without her knowledge, to replace the
High Priestess, but to her it seemed as if they just didn't want her.
She was told to return on the18th cycle with new skills to offer to the
tribe. Trin felt very attached to these people, but they seemed to
be just were waving her off, so she just thought, to hell with them.
So that day she and Joltzen set out. She became a jack of... one
trade really. She relied on being stealthy and cunning to survive.
She roamed all over the lands, but then she got an idea, why not go over
to the human territority. So, she did. She did as the Faeries
did to her people when they first came. She'd destroy things and
steal from the humans in the middle of the night. Some of her fae
friends had followed her and they'd play tricks on the humans during the
days. It was good times for her, though it wasn't good enough to
repay the humans for what they had done to her...driving her away from
her home.
So she ventured to a small kingdom and she studied
all of the people. There was royalty in this place. A boy,
2 cycles her senior, a prince. That would just about settle their
debt. Every week they would send him out on his own to hunt some
game, but he didn't know that today he would be the game. She cornered
him and there was a fierce battle, then he pulled out his dagger, which
she could see was laced with poison. Joltzen wanted to come in and
help her, but she told him that she had to do this own her own. Her
acrobatics skill came in handy, she flip, twisted and turned and ended
up with him pinned under her. She took his poison laced dagger and
killed him with his own weapon.
Unfortuantely, not all things have happy endings.
She was caught and imprisoned; Joltzen managed to escape though. She was
sentenced to death upon the next twilight. With the next night being
her demise she had little time to think of a plan. While in the dungeon
though, there was another elf, a Lhyte Elf. He was in for an attempted
assassination of the same prince. They devised a plan to escape during
the night. The plan was flawless and they escaped. They slept
in a nearby forest that night and when Trin woke, she was surrounded by
the town guards. Apparently the elf whom she had put some trust in
had double-crossed her and told someone of her whereabouts.
Trin nearly didn't escape a second time until her
faithful companion Joltzen came, with the help of a few faeries.
She took off that very second away from the human lands and returned to
her elven forests. She roamed around the forests for awhile more,
until her 18th cycle passed. Trin then returned to her encampment
and they welcomed her. She told of all her adventures, but she left
out the part about killing the prince. Two moons later, the wise
woman found the poison dagger of the prince Trin killed.
She confronted her about this and Trin then told
her the story of it. About how she wanted to avenge her fallen people
upon the humans who took their land. The wise woman grew angry, for
though the Isis tribe did endorse killing, assasinations without the filing
of Intent with the tribe leaders was not acceptable. Trin was immediately
banished from the people whom she knew best. From that day forward,
she decided that she couldn't count on people and that she should only
do things that helped her to survive in the world. Why worry about
other people, they only turn on you and betray you.
