Description

Embla Venter has been reborn twice now. In her first life, she was a noble human living in an elven society. Due to her age, neither she nor her father, who had tragically passed away, were ever fully seen as adults. She desired nothing more than to live as the elves do.

She attempted to search her family’s secret library, but found nothing. Then she heard about a hag that lived in the forest, and decided to pay a visit. The prince of Gensa, Cadeyrn, decided to accompany her to ensure her safety in the forest. Upon arrival, she requested an extension of her lifespan so that she might one day be seen as an adult by elven standards.

The hag agreed and sent both her and the prince on a quest for different ingredients, which they managed to obtain, though not without difficulty. During this quest, Cadeyrn and Coria grew closer, evolving from good friends to something more. After presenting the ingredients to the hag, she concocted a potion for Coria, which tasted foul and brought no immediate change.

They reassured her that she would notice the effects in the years to come when she hadn't aged at all. About a month later, Cadeyrn proposed to Coria. However, these dreams were abruptly shattered, along with her life. Cadeyrn desired more than an extended life; he required the life of someone she loved. He ordered her beheading, a task he carried out himself.

In her second life as Moi, retaining all the memories of her previous existence, this time as a dhampir Tiefling, she ruled over Kuso. Her father arranged her marriage against her wishes, so the night before, she devised a plan to poison her groom. No one suspected her involvement, as she had put out bounties and was skilled at feigning concern, a skill she had learned from Cadeyrn.

Upon being crowned ruler, her first act was to allow the use of magic. However, this moment in history was short-lived, as she was assassinated. It happened one night when she was struck by a poison arrow.

Now in her current and third life, poised to rule a different kingdom, armed with the knowledge of her past lives and simmering anger, she felt deceived, cheated, and wronged. Who wouldn’t be angry? She often made trips to Gensa to check on things, as she was the only non-Vaverisan (Vav-er-rish-ion) who could remember the place.

Once her father discovered she was a dhampir, he cast her out. All things considered, this was the best-case scenario for an undead. She chose to escape to Gensa, drawn by tales of a Lich, and decided to follow the trail. Upon reaching the end, she was met with a portrait of herself from her first life, surrounded by offerings and notes written in an old elvish language known as Fayin.
