[QUOTE="Telgian, post: 495773, member: 2796"] The Windswept Hills were not always as they are now, farms and thickets adorned them in days now lost. It was there that the Horde were surrounded by an undefeatable force of 'Those Who Do Not Belong'. Though the Horde was not the most liked among the armies of the lands, they fought well and bravely. There, among the hills they selected one, known now as Windsheart, to make their final mark upon the encompassing enemy. Their leader was counted among 'The Great' and had travelled wherever the winds lead him in kinder days. Prized among his posessions was his horn, and rightly so, for it held great magics within it, and was a boundless peer on the fields. After great din and clash, few remained, perched atop their grassy knoll. It was then that the horn was uncapped, and given wind. He invoked the Pact. One of the Six sang then. Silence reigned for a moment, and the Horn was passed to the Standard Bearer, so that he would be immune to what would follow, and could recount the tale of their falling. Then the winds screamed their aweful chorus in response, and rent all that lay in its path, indifferent to the causes held to. When even the whispers of the wind had subsided, nothing remained for miles, save the Standard Bearer. Gone were the farms, the trees, the soil, and the armies. The rock itself had been scoured smooth. The Leader of the Horde honoured his part of the Pact. And so he fell, fulfilling is birth augury that he would be sung to sleep by wind itself. It is said of the Standard Bearer that the wind was always behind him as he travelled, for the remainder of his days. Some attributed it to his posession of the Horn, others to a blessing, for few have listened to the winds in that manner and lived to tell of it. ~~~~~~~~~~ [To be done: Stat out the horn -- artifact. Deal with effect of a Pact.] ~~~~~~~~~~ [/QUOTE]
