"For the grand magus a staff made of Etherium. For the queen of elves a bow made from the branch of the world tree. For the two offspring of the world serpent a trident made of Uru and a sword made of mythril. And for the devil forgemaster himself twin daggers made of necrodermis (the self healing corpse metal). After the weapons of legend were created the group set off on their journey, slaying many enemies along the years.
When they finally reached the chamber where the demon king lay they found the 4 possessed dragons lying in wait ready to defend their master. The battle of the chamber was intense and the group nearly lost because each time they slayed a dragon the demons that possessed it would move on to the other dragons making them stronger. If not for their weapons they wouldn't have slain the immortal dragons.
After finally slaying the last dragon the group thought that they had finally achieved what countless others had failed to do. However they were mistaken, killing the last dragon caused all the souls of the arch demons to return to the demon king. The demon king woke up fully healed and stronger than before. The group was all out of options they were both tired and out of mana, but they didn't stand down. They continued the fight, sadly the fight didn't go on without sacrifice, the god of forgemasters, the devil forgemaster in his attempt to cut off one of the horns of the demon king was badly injured and could no longer continue the fight. Grasping the demon kings horn he retreated into the darkness. Some say he died of his injuries, others say he simply ran back to his people, however no one is certain what happened to him.
At this point it was nearly a guarantee that they would lose this fight. The group had fought together for years and were resolved to die together trying to complete the mission that even their forefathers failed. Just as they were about to launch their final attack, a man with white hair and black horns burst into the chamber. This man was Alduin the first dragon born, son to the light dragon. His light magic was at such a high level that it could even match divine magic.
In his hand he held a sword made of dragon bone, It shone with the power of his mother. Together with the new hero the group managed to send the demon king back to the underworld. This group today are known as the heroes of legend. After the defeat of the demon king many others joined in the fight against the demons. The celestial church began culling down the fallen races and the undead. The vampires came out of hiding and fought against the demons as well.
The offspring of the sea went back home and reclaimed their land. All looked well until the major races started bickering, each race asking compensation for what their representative had accomplished. The humans being the most greedy and also being the most populated took much of Merrum for themselves. The elves didn't care for much land they simply asked for a specific part of the Mythical forest to be theirs. That part of the forest was home to the world tree. And the dwarves decided to take all the metals of legend in the ground for themselves.
After this the major races would fight against each other in many wars, seemingly forgetting the camaraderie the heroes of legend once shared. The titles of the heroes would be passed down in their respective races. So that they would always be some one to turn to in times of need." said Neel.
"The Grand Magus right now is Grand Magus Stark. He is probably the strongest Grand Magus after the first one. The current king of dwarves is Raugh however he is on his death bed and will soon be succeeded by his sons. The elves have not left the forest in centuries so no one knows who rules over them and the dragon borns are being hunted down by the church. But that's a story for another day." said Neel with a sad look in his eyes.
"I know you're too young to understand what I'm saying right now son, but one day when you're a bit older you'll realize. And you will know your r-. I think I'm getting a bit caught up. Anyways that's it son goodnight." said Neel as he quickly walked out of the room seemingly caught up in the past.
" I have to thank you dad you've given me the best history lesson I could hope for. So demons and divine beings exist and interact with mortals in this world? But best of all there really are elves in this world." Arya thought with a dirty look on his babyish face.
