[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 2578620, member: 29014"] "It is something of a long story, but in short, a family enemy, a great demon, has been freed and sought its revenge by cursing my daughter with an incurable wasting disease. He did this out of revenge, for my ancestor trapped him for milennia..." "But I sense you want to hear it all, so--" "Long ago, my ancestor Zorander battled a terrible demon of the plague. This demon's virulent cursed diseases proved uncurable, even by the power of the true clerics of the gods, and so Zorander crafted an item designed to counter the demon's power, using it to cure the people who were diseased. Well, obviously, the demon did not like this, and so he attacked my ancestor. The battle was long and hard, but Zorander had the faith of the people and his family and friends behind him, and so he was victorious. However, the demon could never be completely destroyed." "And so, he sealed the demon away in a far-away land, and he sealed the orb there too, so that it would be preserved and readily-accessible in case the demon ever broke free." "Well, as you can imagine, the demon broke free, and he has cursed my Alyx in vengeance, leaving me healthy--if you can call any man my age healthy--because he wishes to fight me like he did my ancestor.
