![]() ![]() She explained that it was known as The Crown of Truth, for it would allow the wearer to charm anyone who saw them. Such a time equalled that of a blink to the gods, and she was willing to wait for her treasure. And so it came to pass that he chose Yviany, the Goddess of Dreams.Īs a thank you, and to uphold her end of the bargain, Yviany allowed Silas to borrow the crown for fifty years. However, as a young man, he did have many desires-one of those being Valeria. Being young and naive, he did not yet understand the true value of knowledge, so he rejected wisdom. Silas, lacking any true enemies, had no need for judgement. Yviany whispered that all of his dreams and desires would become reality. Bymos offered him all knowledge known to mankind. Ulvan promised him that his foes would face righteous judgement. Unable to choose otherwise, each of the gods offered gifts to Silas if he were to give them ownership of the crown. REDDIT CITRIO FULLWith his full attention, the gods gave Silas the choice of who would be bestowed the crown. The three commanded Silas to raise his head, wherein between them he saw a crown shining unlike any gold or jewels he had ever seen. When they had come to a decision, they moved the clouds from the night sky and revealed themselves to be Yviany, the Goddess of Dreams, Ulvan, the God of Judgement, and Bymos, the God of Wisdom. The gods broke the heavy silence to once again converse amongst themselves, this time in hushed voices about the human in front of them. “Forgive me,” the young fisherman pleaded with his head against the rocky ground, “it was never my intention to disturb a conversation meant not for the ears of mortals.” “What mortal dares to listen in on the dealings of gods?”ĭeeply embarrassed, Silas realized such things could only be gods, and quickly fell to his knees in a deep bow. A silence fell over the ravine as the figures began to glow brighter and addressed Silas with booming voices. He stepped toward the edge of the ravine, nearly falling to his death, but not before catching himself on a vine and hauling himself back up. It seemed to him that they were discussing who deserved ownership of some sacred item. ![]() Silas was able to overhear the words “crown,” “right,” “war,” and “mine” with little effort. He followed the sounds to the peak of a ravine, where he saw the outlines of giant figures having an argument within the night sky. It was there that he heard voices too haunting to be human. In his despair, Silas left Adamaris and spent a night by the Syra River. Valeria’s father had decided to marry her off to another nobleman named Adrianus from their homeland within the coming months. However, now fully grown, they could no longer deny the difference between their social status. The two continued to secretly meet every night when the moon was full from then onward, and they became entangled with romantic feelings. Silas had considered it his destined moment, and spoke to her for the first time when he offered her help. She had often caught his eye from afar as a child, but one day she had somehow become separated from her guardian in the city’s market. One such joy was the daughter of a foreign nobleman from Patavinum, Valeria. His life was often filled with days where he would give up whatever food he could afford to his aging father, but despite the hard times, his life still had some joys he deeply treasured. Silas was born to a poor family of fishermen whose work he continued and eventually grew into a man without a mother’s touch. The city was called Adamaris, and within its walls lived a young fisherman by the name of Silas. In ages long past, there existed a glorious walled city by the sea, unlike any other of its time. ![]()
