Time of Prophets
Long before the earth saw sunlight, an ancient being known only as Nix dwelled alone in a dark, cold kingdom. Bearing now shape herself, she spent her endless nights crafting creatures for her entertainment. Birds gifted with large amber eyes and silent wings took to the night sky while insects hummed to her from the grasses. The more creatures Nix created, the more she realized her creatures would grow too numerous in their dark lands. With that in mind, Nix tore a bit of her gown, the night sky, and spun herself a mighty hunter. Thick fur for warmth, bright intelligent eyes, keen minds, sharp fangs and powerful legs. Regal and noble in appearance, Nix finished her creation by whispering in its ear the words of life and sent her creatures upon the earth to thin the population of her creatures. For many years this kept things in balance with the aid of Nix's servants, the Moon and the Sun to guide the wolves in their hunts.
Nix began to see the danger in her mighty hunters as they grew arrogant and their keen minds were beginning to weaken with their ignorance and arrogance. As punishment for disappointing her, Nix sent humans upon the earth to destroy her creations and turned her back on them all, leaving them to be nothing but mewling, barking, snarling animals and to let the humans destroy the creations she had lost faith in.
In the days of humans, the wolves had long forgotten their arcane history when ancient spirits spun them from sound and the night sky. Humans ruled over the earth, destroying the once mighty forests and slaughtering all animals they deemed unworthy or unintelligent. Some wolves fell to waste as dogs, others were destroyed for killing cattle and sheep when humans took too many deer. Once bright and noble creatures, the wolves fell into savage ways, killing each other in their blind rage toward humans and forgetting the role they had once claimed as guardians of the wild. Some humans captured two hundred wolves and took them into strange buildings where they were never seen again, at least, not in the same way.
Horrid tests were used on these wolves and they became more and more violent with each test. Soon, savage and barbaric couldn't even describe them. They were raving mad, howling and foaming at the mouth, trying to kill anything that breathed. The humans didn't see the signs within these dark creatures and suffered for several years after the test began, the wolves broke loose from their cages. They began a rampage unlike anything history has ever seen. From city to city the wolves roamed, killing anything in their path whether it was a human, dog, bird or another wolf. The bloodshed and pained howls of her once beloved wolves drew the gaze of Nix. Seeing the monsters her human destroyers had created, Nix chose four wolves with keen minds, bright eyes and devout hearts.
Their names were Luna, Aquarius, Sothis and Venus. Naming them the Chosen Creations, Nix went to them as they slept in a mountain den hiding from what was known as the Blackblood Pack. She whispered into their dreams, giving them words of power over dreams, fire, soul and vision. With the powers, Nix gave them instructions on how to kill the Blackbloods and how to bring nobility back to the wolves. When dawn rose and Nix vanished, the wolves rose and went after the Blackbloods.
A harsh battle was dueled that day as four wolves faced nearly two hundred of the Blackbloods. Using the powers granted to them by Nix, the four banished the demons in a cavern and sealed it so no one could release them for several centuries. Minds haunted by the battle and their mouths turned sour by the taste of blood, Luna, Aquarius, Sothis and Venus withdrew from other wolves that sought to congratulate and thank them. They vanished to a densely wooded forest and decided that together they would raise a pack of healers and teachers to make up for the deaths the Blackblood Pack had caused.
Now however, a new Council of Stars reigns over the Druid Pack. Sirius, Selene, Virgo and Gemini stand at the top of an ancient hierarchy, ruling over the Druids and keeping a watchful eye on the petty fighting of the Icis, Avalon and Darkrai Packs. The seals of the Blackbloods has gone both forgotten and weakened for centuries after the Great Sealing. Now with the fighting between packs becoming more violent, will the Blackblood's dare to try and escape their prison or will the other packs simply tear each other apart?
It is a time of war, a time of insecurity and a time of fear.
But above all, it is a time of prophets and magic.
