Theoden Elendil

Image

Theoden Elendil, eldest son of Faramir Elendil, stood in the middle of a rounded room surrounded by his pupils. They were learning the art of determining rune compatibility. For those interested in rune magic, it is a most essential skill to have. It was common for any town regardless of nation to have rune shops about in the common areas. Runes on a smaller scale were plentiful in the world. However they are most all derivatives of the 27 True Runes. Rune shops needed magicians that knew how to affix runes, test aptitude and to remove them as well. It was a relatively simple manner of employment for any magician if they wanted to earn a living in a town.

As the class concluded Theoden dismissed his students. “Tomorrow be prepared for a test of your newly acquired skill from today. Practice at home.” Theoden said with a smile. He loved teaching, it was a joyous task to see others excited to learn a new skill.

Theoden began to clear away things left in the instruction room. He stopped to ponder on his brother’s whereabouts. Thorin had set out a few days earlier to go to the lands of Fyrkat. Their father was their and there was urgent news that needed to be delivered. It seemed that the world was bound for more turmoil, Faramir’s worst fear. Theoden looked out of the large window to view the beautiful horizon. Toward the tower flew a white dove carrying a message.

Theoden allowed the dove to nest in his hands. After removing the message he cradled the dove in one arm while holding the letter in the other. It was from the Empress of Espoir, Viserya Luisant-Leger. It had been some time since the Magician’s Tower had received salutations from The Empire of Espoir. Theoden read the letter, it was for his father Faramir. It seemed that the Empress of Espoir was in need of a teacher so that she could hone her magical abilities however given the nature of her situation, secrecy was mandatory. Since she wasn’t allowed an actual magic instructor Faramir would have to go on a different premise.

Theoden pondered for a moment. “Hmm… my father is busy in the north. He would most definitely want to see to it that the Empress is taken care of and taught properly.” Theoden decided that he would have to go. He was excited, he was always happy at the opportunity to help another in their study of magic and even combat training. “Now what should be my official reason for being there…? Perhaps I shall offer my services as an advisor to the empress. Considering the impending danger the world is in it would not be wise for a nation to turn a wise sorcerer away with a prophecy regarding the fate of nations.” Theoden immediately wrote a letter in reply and sent it to the Empire of Espoir via the dove sent by the empress. He set out immediately for the Empire.

After a long but swift journey he arrived in the island nation. It was truly a beautiful place. The population seemed so diverse. There were people of Wa decent, Fykat decent, even some that descended from the Mediterranean Lineage. This place made him fell less like a foreigner but just one of many different faces all intermingled on the island. As he crossed the waters he could see merpeople leaping freely in and out of the waters. It must have been understood that both land and sea dwellers respected each other’s space here. Theoden was beyond impressed at the magnificent empire.

He was led to the castle after explaining his plight to the many guardsmen and royal barricades that questioned Theoden. However he had little trouble once he told them of who he was and why he was there. They immediately granted him audience with the empress. A maid led him toward the Empress’ chambers, the young woman was shy and smiled as she took occasional glances at the mage. Theoden smiled as well. They reached the door and the maid knocked.

˝Come in.˝ a voice answered through the door. Theoden and the maid entered.

The maid introduced Theoden. “Your majesty, may I present to you Lord Theoden Elendil of the Magician’s Tower.“

Theoden took a few steps forward and bowed to the Empress. “Your highness, I bring greetings from the Magician’s Tower in Mildorian. On behalf of my farther The great Wizard Faramir Elendil I come to offer my personal assistance to the Empress. In Mildorian, we are known for predicting the events to come by careful reading of the stars. The star profess that every nation shall know great trouble. I came to ensure that Espoir’s ethers remain balanced thus steering it in a more positive ethereal balance. You require a magical energy of great magnitude from a southern ether. My being near the Empress will ward away disaster during this time. I shall serve her in whatever way I can, if you’ll allow it.”

Theoden smiled at the Empress. She was younger than he thought she would be. He was impressed that such a young woman was willing to push her skills as far as they could go. She must have great determination, Theoden thought. He was hoping his excuse for being there was good enough.
