Lore of Arcana excerpt: Land of Skies

 


“We thought we outran the human race.It was a beautiful world, my friends, more so than now. Pure, untouched, andthe sacred sites flourished, tapping the magic of the earth, intensifying thewonder that was Valaris. I wish you could have seen it the way it was.”

“Lord Vallorin?” Lanto interrupted.“May I ask something? Who named this world? And what does it mean?”

“I wonder how many have asked that -maybe you are the first. I named it. This is my world, here in my heart, intoall eternity. We were fleeing after another battle with the humans, one thatwent against us that day, when something bright caught my eye, a flash in thedistance of space. There was no time to investigate, but I was intrigued enoughto return later, centuries later. It was a world far from well-travelledroutes, no more than a blue dot. It was simplicity, purity, and I named itthen. Valaris. Ancient Valleur for Landof Skies. I never forgot where it lay.”

“Wow,” Lanto breathed.

“Land of Skies? Really?” Raken askedand, for once, he looked at her directly. “Perfect.” She smiled at him, causinghim to look elsewhere again.

“Indeed,” Taranis murmured.
