With every passing year the threat Fae pose to the world grows more and more dire. Some may wonder why no brave heroes take to the sword to defeat them and rid the mortal races of their corrupting magics. The simple fact of the matter is dozens, if not hundreds have tried. Some have even had some small success in removing taint from their lands.

She longs for a bygone age and her physical prison pales in comparison to the one of obligation she has created for herself.
