Prologue
The Song of Calamyr
Long ago,
beyond the eastern horizon,
there stood a magnificent metropolis—
a city where many races gathered
to trade, to celebrate,
and to forget their sins.
In the shadow of that city,
a solitary wooden hut stood in silence.
Within it lived a beautiful woman
and her elven husband,
their life simple, untouched by sorrow.
But then…
whispers were born.
People murmured that whenever the husband left,
shadows of men from many races
would pass through that wooden door,
drawn by lust and sin.
No one knew the truth—
only that rumors always spoke louder than reality.
When the husband returned
and found the ashes of the faith he once believed in,
the elf's heart shattered.
Words of grief and vengeance
escaped his lips
and became a curse, unintended yet absolute.
"Climb that mountain and remain there forever.
And whenever you bear a child,
he shall always be male,
and he shall lie with you for all eternity."
The woman was banished
to the highest mountain at the edge of the land,
where even sunlight could barely reach.
Not long after,
a boy was born.
He grew faster than the wind,
as if the world itself refused to wait for him.
Then the curse began to spread.
The next birth came swiftly, unnaturally.
The child was covered in black fur like the night,
with crimson eyes like blood
and sharp fangs like a beast.
And they multiplied.
When the mountain could no longer contain them,
the dark shadows descended into the forests,
into the beasts—
and finally… into mankind.
In a single night,
the great metropolis became a legend.
And the darkness continued to spread
across the eastern lands
until this very day.
Thus, people named that mountain
Umbra of Calamyr—
a land said to be the root of all sin
and the birthplace of every demon.
