In the beginning...

Odin made a single man ruler of the mortals. This man would be known as Tiron Antona, the greatest einheriar Odin had. He granted Tiron a life of mortality. Odin named this world Valhalla, as all mortals would know it, where the war of Ragnarok would take place at the end of time. This was a time both kingdoms were under one ruler. King Antona had two sons, and a daughter born in the mortal world. The first born named Aazh Antona was tall and skinny, not weak though. For his is the brightest mind in all of Valhalla. He was very attractive with long dark, raven black hair in a pony tail. His features were nearly flawless. He was in tune with wilderness, and carried a deep level of respect for it. His second born Kuon Antona was more of a warlord, always training to be the best fighter in Valhalla. He was shorted than Aazh, but was alot more muscle than any two guards combined. His hair was short and always dissheveled. He had scars all over his body as rememberance to those that nearly claimed his life. Kuon had recieved the strength of his father. The daughter who's name was Akasha Antona was the most beautiful, fairest woman in all of Valhalla. With an hour glass petite figure, and long flowing blonde curls. She had to have inhereted it from Freya herself. She loved the Beach of Purity and spent almost every waking hour there, until one day she just vanished. With news of her disappearance Tiran fell gravely ill.

Five years have past with no sign of Akasha, mostly life moved on with out her. Tiran's symptoms were worsening. Then Akasha returned still holding the reputation as the most beautiful and gracefull woman in Valhalla. However it was a dark beauty, and morbid grace this time. With her was Loki, the dark prince from the swamps. Akasha met Loki at the Beach of Purity during the night, when she knew not to be there past sundown. Her and Loki found something in eachother that they loved so much to elope for so long. Loki was just a man shrouded in shadows, like a black mist constantly surrounding him. Their visit was not of glee, but of business. Akasha went straight to the throne room where King Anton lay on his deathbed. It was a Magnificent hall that led them there. She demanded that Valhalla be turned over to the dark prince. Aazh tried pleading, and gave all reason for her return to the Kingdom. but the message was'nt getting through, so it was Kuon's turn to reason. Akasha said that if these demands were not met, she would assemble a mass horde to pave the way to Ragnarok. Kuon would not allow this however, and when Akasha nor the dark prince was'nt paying attention beheaded his lovely sister. The dark prince was infuriated, and retreated back to the Forgotten Swamps to plan the fall of Valhalla. Akasha's death saddened King Anton that he just gave up living. Maybe he had been staying alive in the hopes to see his daughters beauty one last time. His last wish to Odin and Freya before reaching the world of Asgard was to grant rebirth to all Valhallan warriors, so that no one would again feel his pain. Odin agreed, only under this condition: Each warrior going into battle was required to draw their own life source, rather than drawing from his. So Tiran closed his eyes and joined them in Asgard. The dark prince was not the only one un-happy with Kuon's actions. Aazh was also infuriated with Kuon's thoughtless decision. Usually they would both work out problems.

Tiran Anton's will sanctioned two equal Kingdoms to his son's. Aazh the first born was granted Kingdom Tiranoc a heavily fortified, wooded, serene lot of land located in the northern portion of his Kingdom. He was very pleased by his fathers decision. Kuon recieved Kingdom Antonia, the castle matched kuon's personality. With a more industrialized, and germanic architecture. It was the complete opposite of Tiranoc. It had electricity, and steam power but lacked in the wholesome qualities of Tiranoc. Aazh was inable to let go of the murder of his sister, he loved her too much. Kuon would have to pay somehow. Both brothers grew distant, and soon becamse paranoid. Then it finally happened, a decleration of war from Antonia. During their distancing Kuon had the second most beautiful woman in all of Valhalla. What better way to get revenge for his sisters death than to steal Kuon's wife, thought Aazh. So he did, she reminded him of his sister which filled an emptiness in his life. Kuon could care less about emptiness, his only care was for the return of his trophy wife. Aazh would not let her go, because they were genuine about their love for each other. After stories she had told him about how she felt like a captive animal, he could not let her go back. So a war was waged at the huge no-mans-land in the middle of both Kingdoms. Over the years this once yellow field of wheat grass had become a crimson red. It was named "The Death Field," or as most like to call it "The Battle Grounds."

Years pass, the grudge between the two Kingdoms was still at a stalemate. Then Kuon issued a temporary military stand-still, and for this time peace was once again apart of Valhalla...

~Forgotten Lands History~

In the beginning...

Surt scarred the land with flames, until Freya's tears put the flames out. Leaving the land she forgot about behind, the tears and ash created a bog swamp. No earthly human was born here from her tears, instead Surts flames grew into forms as they were diminishing. The forms took shape, and the shapes soon gave life to living creatures of its own. This was when the first shadow was born in that piece of land. That shadow was named by Surt, "Loki." Surt retreated back to the depths, and left Loki in charge of this vast swamp. Which Loki soon named, "The Forgotten Lands." Loki wandered these lands figuring out where his borders were drawn. His was the eastern most region in the land of Valhalla. To the northwest was a heavily wooded area, and southwest was mountains and hills. From east of this wooded area was a long beach that wrapped itself around the swamps until it reached the southwest hills. This beach was far from the center of the swamps and too beautiful during the day for his liking. So Loki ordered that no one visit the beach during the day, and only at night when their shadows could take hold of the beauty and crush it. Until one night when Loki was pondering his borders, he heard an angelic voice that captured him. He stealthly approached the voice only to see the most beautiful thing that he had ever seen in his life. Even more beautiful than the beach had been during the day. She noticed him, and was'nt moved by his evil presence. This intrigued Loki, and soothed his compulsion to kill her. For he was not beautiful himself, he was just a shadow form. The lady approached Loki, which suprised him even more, she said her name was "Akasha" heiress to the throne of Valhalla. They spoke and began to connect, she was the only person who had the ability to show Loki that he too could feel. He was in love, and could'nt figure out why she loved him back because he wasnt nearly as beautiful as her. She showed Loki a mirror, something he had never seen before. Under the Shadow during the night he did have true form. He had the capsule of a human body for his soul, shrouded with shadows still, but atleast he knew that he just was'nt one. He was very handsome with deep purple eyes, and raven black hair. His features were masculine and flawless, his jaw was chisiled and defined. He understood now why she could bare staring at him, like she had been. His beauty was the only in the land to equal hers. He begged her to come with him to his land, and make her his queen. She nodded, and they both vanished into the swamps.

Five years passed and they were prepared to take all the land as their own. Except they ran into a problem at Anton's castle, they both didnt expect. Loki barely escaped and retreated to the swamps once more, this time without his love. He was infuriated with what had happened, and held all of Valhalla in contempt. He swore the next time that Valhalla saw him it was to be claimed as his, in her name...
