It was forbidden for Reese to be without a guard and to venture from the lands of Velusia. Reese told his sister about his plans to sneak away, she tried to stop him. Reese would not be stopped and set off. Reese sought the fabled sword in the stone, said to be embedded in an obsidian boulder in the middle of a magical lake. His friends consisted of, Ronin Wolfstein the mage, Olivia Du Grace the fencer, and the elf bard Amhránaímeisce. | It was forbidden for Reese to be without a guard and to venture from the lands of Velusia.

+ | Reese ruled over Velusia with help from time to time from his brother Desmond. He often left Desmond or Vincent in charge while he went off on matters of import. He spent years solidifying alliances and securing trade agreements. Over the course of that time, Reese and Melfina had fallen in love. Their love was shallow and it didn't last. Melfina gave birth to two children, Prasutagus and Sayge. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Reese loved being a father, he spent most of his time with his children. So much so that Vincent took on a more permanent role in the governmental workings of the kingdom. Also so much that Melfina saw very little of her husband. Rumors spread that she had affairs with various famous individuals in the kingdom. Melfina began to drink a lot more than a queen ever should. | ||

+ | After Darkthorne assassins attacked Reese and his family at a friend' | ||
+ | |||
+ | It hung in the air, filled the castle, everyone around him seemed to suffer it. She mentioned that she had heard rumors about the Dream Mantle. At first, Reese didn't care, he lost his greatest love, his sister, his children. He wanted to wallow in his sorrows, to drown in his misery and be free of the pain. Sabrina managed to break through the thick barrier of his depression. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Reese summoned the lands heroes, put together a small army and with Sabrina by his side marched to Riven. The mountains there held an ancient city and ancient terrors. Vampires older than any Reese had seen, they attacked them in the valley. Many died, and worse a blizzard quickly sealed of their escape. The few left ventured on finally finding the city in the mountain. There was a temple with glyphs and hints at the ancient god once worshiped there. | ||

====Behind the Veil==== | ====Behind the Veil==== | ||
+ | Reese married Sabrina and together they had three children Sean, Zachary, and Destiny. He was once again happy, but he knew this happiness could not last. It was only temporary while the threat of the Dark Effigy was still out there. Reese asked the crew of the " | ||
+ | |||
+ | They managed to come up with a device that would pull the image from his mind and find its location. The process seemed to take a very long time. When it was acquired the crew and Reese traveled to the realm and were suddenly overcome by noxious fumes, the landscape was dark and seemed to twist and change. There was only one thing in this landscape, a demijohn shining like a star in the night sky. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Reese grasped the bottle and opened it and was instantly taken to a place, not of this reality. Energy flowed out of the bottle surrounding him. He heard a voice in his head cursing him for setting them loose. He saw another energy a darker one that fled into the kaleidoscopic landscape. The world around him constantly shifted and changed. The entity informed Reese that he had released the dream lord thus gaining the dream lord powers, but in doing so he had released the Nightmare lord as well. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Reese grappled with the seriousness of his actions. The voice told Reese that now he was the dream lord and charged with fighting the nightmare lord. Reese agreed to defeat this nightmare lord once he dealt with the current threat to his home. The entity in his head explained to him how to return home. | ||
+ | |||
+ | When Reese returned, 4 years had passed by. Sabrina had moved on and remarried, she had moved into the lands of her husband beyond the veil in Ayenee. Reese decided it was for the best, for now, he would focus all his thoughts on the threat of the Effigy. Reese needed time to learn his powers, to prepare countermeasures, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Reese had heard that a great cataclysm had occurred in Ayenee. The land was sundered and a darkness was spreading. He decided there was only one thing he could do. He began a ritual to remove the Theras veil from Ayenee and place it in a small pocket dimension. He could then train an army to fight the threat of the Effigy, he could learn his powers, all while safe inside the veil. He thought about all the loved ones who would be left behind in such a titanic event. The sacrifice would outweigh the loss, he was destined for this. | ||
+ | |||
+ | As he began the ritual he was attacked by a small force of Darkthornes, | ||
====The Final Battle==== | ====The Final Battle==== | ||
+ | While in the bubble Reese traveled to the remaining lands and formed a new coalition. One that would address the threat of the Effigy. The leaders of all the remaining kingdoms were angered at Reese for plucking their lands up and spiriting them away. Many mages became interested in the magical moorings that tied the lands here. There were numerous temporal anomalies and planar tears that needed to be addressed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | It took some time for Reese to convince the leaders to his side. In that time Reese met and married Tsuki Hasu a leader of one of these lands. Her land would not survive the reentry process of the planar regrafting. Tsuki and Reese had three children together and continued to put together the force needed to take on the Effigy. Reese had constructed a prophecy through the dream realm, that the Theras planes would be released from the planar anchor by their children. | ||
+ | |||
+ | He then began observations of the Effigy finding out the history of his foe, his powers, and his goals. The Effigy was a dark god trapped in a sort of crystal prison, the prison had cracked just enough that he was able to extend his influence across the planes. He sought to bring chaos and darkness to creation, to rule over it as a demonic god. Stories played out in the Theras realm, stories that eventually led to the destruction of the mooring spell. The lands violently reappeared where they once had been. Some lands were completely destroyed, others were lost in time rifts. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Almost as quickly as the lands had reappeared, so did the black portals. From these portals emerged the Effigy' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Eseer' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Wasting no time, he waded into the fray. He summoned more demonic minions to the battle. Reese was nearly slain as he tried to take the Effigy on alone. Reese' | ||
====The Nightmare==== | ====The Nightmare==== | ||
+ | Reese had promised to defeat the nightmare lord after having dealt with the threat of the Effigy. He managed to get a small year long rest before moving on to his next crisis. It seemed that the crisis had come to him. The lands were gripped in a plague of nightmares and a strange disease caused people to enter a comatose state. In some parts, they claimed that strange fantastical lands were suddenly being grafted to the landscape. On inspection Reese found these to be pieces of the dream and nightmare landscapes from the dream realm. | ||
+ | Reese sought answers and was forced to leave his family once more. He entered the dream realm, but a year went by and there was no answer from him. Tsuki decided to go in after him and to try and find what had happened to her husband. She was pursued by agents of the nightmare through the ever changing landscape of the dream. Through her connection to her husband, she was able to find him. He had seemed confused stating he had only been in the dream for perhaps a day. | ||
+ | |||
+ | When he discovered that the length of time had changed much like the landscape of the dream, he realized what it meant. Together they forged on deeper into the dream. There like a gaping wound, a tear in the realm. It tore through to the next reality and so on. Reese could see the realm of the dead, the elemental realms, and others through the hole. At the end was their reality, something had crossed the realms, tearing a hole through them as it passed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | As the dreamers of the lands fought inner demons, the land was assaulted by actual demons from the dream realm. The furies, agents of the nightmare lord began to terra graft parts of the nightmare into the landscape of the waking world. Those who fell to the inner demons that haunted them rose up as mindless pawns of the nightmare lord. Reese and Tsuki emerged from the hole in reality and found a spiraling tower upon a small atoll in the ocean. | ||
+ | |||
+ | From the top of this tower, was Reese' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Reese and Adrian managed to defeat the nightmare lord, they destroyed his needle with the help of Tsuki and other heroes. As the needle collapsed into the tear, so did Cebrese, they watched in horror as he was disintegrated with the closing of the tear. Reese gave the Dream Mantle to his half brother Adrian, choosing to stay in reality with his family from now on. The nightmare was finally over. \\ | ||
