Interview with Queen Falkenrath




A interview the people of Esshar have been waiting for. I sat down with the Queen of Asphodel. And she has some pretty interesting things to say to the questions i ask her. 

Burly: Who is Araceli Falkenrath? What place you to come to Esshar? What do you think of the current state of Esshar?

Araceli Falkenrath: As you well know, my name is Araceli Falkenrath, the Queen of Asphodel. I came to these lands from the continent known as Apropriya, though it was primarily due to a sense of wanderlust. 

I believe that humanityhas allowed itself to be shackled by the divine, barred through an imposed mortality which they are forced to believe is the 'natural' way of things. Nothing could be further from the truth in this regard."



Man was not meant to turn into dust, but thrive forever. It is through Cain that we are imbued with immortality, life everlasting. He has both liberated and freed of us our mortal shell, allowing us to partake of all that life has to offer.. forever.



They believe we are here to kill them and enslave their children, but nothing could be further from the truth. Taking blood without killing, that is we handled things within Apropriya.



People spend their entire lives in service to gods, spirits, and primordials who care for naught but their own self interest. They never receive true blessing, and are simply led to an elderly age wherein their entire existence will be forgotten."


Humanity needs to rise above the impulse of divine beings or foreign gods. They need to take hold of their own destiny and become their own god, simply put.

Burly: Recently it was announced Natasha the former wife of Alexei pyr Docro was slain here. To clear the air of people jumping to assumptions about you all. What would you like to say to the world on the incident?

What is your favorite food? What would you like to say to the world about Asphodel?

Araceli Falkenrath: It was an unfortunate situation, truly. The tension between Alexei and miss Natasha was palpable, and creating a divide within the Kingdom of Asphodel.



As a result, I asked that Natasha leave peacefully. Alexei had bent the knee and come to us first, so he held priority in that regard.



Natasha failed to leave, and instead took it upon herself to insult myself, the Queen of this kingdom. Naturally, we did not take to it very well, and I ordered her arrest.



After she was captured, I seized her staff, and was going to release her with an injury as just recompense for her insult against myself and my kingdom. Rather than be released, however, she set herself aflame.


It was a suicide, to make things clear.

I used to be quite fond of steak, as well as meat in general

What I would like the world to know is that Asphodel is a sovereign state, all those who live here have sworn themselves to me above all else. There is no Docro rule, nor is there 'Achyon boot licking.' It was Achyon that first attempted to appeal to us, and offer me tribute.


"Though they are treasured, valuable allies. We wish to set man free from the hypocrisy of the divine, one way or another. To elevate all mortals and bring about a new age.

Burly: Anything else you like to add?

Araceli Falkenrath: Lando had a thing for me, though it was years ago now. He wrote me love poetry, and kissed me, as well as cuddled me. I could even bet that I was his first kiss.


The Archmage of Osrona, kissing and loving on a vampire. A story for the ages, isn't it?

  

And with that was the wrap of our interview. Could it be true or will the archmagi speak out on it?

Chaska Alder


The story of Chaska Alder

A woman of few words and very calm mind i had done a interview with. So i will go over the talk that i had with Mrs. Alder.

Burly: Tell me about yourself. 

Chaska Alder: "I suppose I will begin at the beginning. I am not from Esshar originally, I arrived just after my fourteenth birthday after running away from home. Before arriving in Esshar my formal title was Lady Chaska Aevnass, I was an aristocratic noble of Magnolia. My family specialized in finer textile trade and their mass wealth had earned them such a title over the generations. That part of my life I would have to say was the most boring. Learning to become the perfect heiress to the Aevnass name. Plenty of lessons in all sorts of subjects, but that strive for knowledge is likely why I am so well versed today. 


After my arrival I quickly fell into two lives: one of learning holy magic and one of joining the Aesirheim Fleet of Vanirhalla. My very first night in Esshar I was lucky enough to meet my holy teacher who proceeded to show me the steps to learning holy magic, my most treasured magic to this day. At the same time I had become enthralled by the Vanirhallan. They were the ones who taught me to fight, to move beyond my title of heiress, and they were also the reason I became a medic. Out in the deserts medical assistance is rather hard to find, and we only had one medic at the time. I wanted to be as helpful as I could so I decided to learn along her side as well as an old Osronan man. I learned most of my medical training within this very building by Paca Elementa. He was my mentor for very years and later he became a dear friend. I learned to be a medic for the same reason I learned holy magic, to protect and help others. My timing seemed fateful as just a few months after I got my medic license my friend, the other medic of the desert was killed by Achyon.

I was a Vanirhallan from ages seventeen to twenty-two I believe. Well, formally. You cannot officially join the fleet until you have defeated a great beast, but on my own at seventeen I defeated a Nethradyn. It was a proud moment. I was the first outside to ever join the Vanirhallan and served as an inspiration for other non-natives to join over the years.

After my time with the Vanirhallan I spent many years amongst the Fireblooded, going as far as becoming a Flame Herald and competing in the very tournament that made Violet a Dragonlord. It was in that time I began to work towards a higher understanding of holy magic, but sadly it was not there I mastered it. A tragedy occurred and Lucas and I decided to move here to Osrona. I had a house here, one I had maintained for many years as my personal haven and it became our home.

In Osrona I suppose you could say I hit the ground running. The Archmage at the time, Amori tasked me with healing those injured at the resurrection of Dallan and that is how I made my name as a medic within the city."

Since then I have taught numerous medic lessons and holy lessons. I became a professor at Starfall Academy for the holy arts. Lucas and I opened an orphanage together, Star's Shelter down in the lower distract. I achieved a higher mastery of holy magic and have even begun to master white magic. I serve as a helper for this community. Anything they need I am here toprovide as a medic, master artificer and alchemist, holy magi, and self proclaimed mother to many. 

Burly: If you had a message to the people of Esshar what would it be?

Chaska Alder:  I suppose don't be afraid to start over? If you're unhappy make the change because you might be better off for it. Here in Osrona, I've never felt more fulfilled and have never been happier and that would have never happened had I not restarted three times. So don't fear change, embrace it.
