Synopsis

The Tale of Shaltar

The tail once told says that the king of the stars, the alfather, once ruled the earth and skies with his chosen guardians; the celestial lords of Shaltar.

Leo: the beast of the abyss.

Taurus: the guardian of strength.

Sagittarius: the stallion of the clouds.

Gemini: the lord of night and day.

Cancer: defender of life.

Libra: master of knowledge.

Pisces: lord of the temples.

Scorpio: critter of travel.

Capricorn: seeker of the truth.

Aquarius: master of the sea.

Virgo: lord of medicine.

And Aries: the divine one of balance.

These twelve lords were once gathered to protect the earth with the alfather by traveling to many places and allowing it to grow. However, a great darkness was coated on the alfather and he was forced to send his lords across the earth and await their return with a hero of the earth. The thirteenth celestial guardian: Orpheus; seeker of hope.

And so the alfather continues to wait for this hero. Until that day, the darkness will forever haunt the earth.
