their
mortal eyes unable to fully comprehend his dark, ethereal beauty bestowed upon
him by the Dark Master. His serpentine voice echoes from the cold stone walls,
as he delivers Lord Duach's commandments."
Virulent is the prophet of Duach, and the messenger between the Dark One and
his faithful. He is neither God nor mortal, but exists somewhere between the
two. Though many outside of the Fellowship of Darkness see him as cruel, we of
the Darkness have come to understand him, with time. He has shown on many
occasions that he wants nothing more than to serve Duach and to assist the
faithful. Elphame... "The souls of the dead wander without direction, crying out at the loss of
the flesh. In the darkness, the icy hands of the Goddess reach out to catch the
fallen, bringing them into the protective veil of darkness that is death. The
Lady Elphame stands, her scales of justice held before her, as one by one the
souls are judged to determine their worthiness to be reborn once more. Those
who are determined unworthy are gathered into her arms to sleep for an
eternity, her breath cold against their cheeks.
"Hail to our Lady Elphame, may you be forever within us. May we see your
face in the eyes of our enemies as they gasp their final breath."
Because the Goddess Elphame is aligned with our Lord Duach, many chose to
follow both the God and the Goddess, and some the Goddess alone. Elphame is the
Goddess of death, judgment of souls after death, and justice. As of yet, she
has no prophet, but many hope that recent predictions of a new prophet in the
land will mean that Elphame has awakened.

The Storyline has amused and entertained Realmers for nearly 3 years.
There are no requirements to "join", only a desire to become involved
as the story unfolds.
While all Realmers have enjoyed the fruits
of the updates made since October 2000, only Storyliners know the reasons
behind the implementation of the newest items and hunting locations. Their very
existence is directly tied in to the Gods and future
events. There is no storyline knowledge needed to use the items or to hunt in
the newest areas, but it is interesting to know the
"whos,
whats, wheres, and whys". The "whens", as always, remain a
mystery.
The biggest appeal to the storyline, secondary only to the social aspects,
appears to be the intricate weaving of stories within stories and an endless
parade of characters contributing to the tapestry of the storyline. The current
task at hand involves
unraveling the multipart puzzles which promise
wondrous surprises in Mabon's Temple when solved. Where... Join Duach's Faithful in his temple, located 9 south (down) and 8 west
(left) from Wen's teleporter room. Channel 667 has traditionally been used as
the Dark Channel although it has fallen into disuse as of late. You can also
read about current happenings at The Realm's Official Storyline Boards known
affectionately by Storyliners as...
The Town Tree
(Temple Chronicles).
