All know the Gods meddle in the lives of men, both great and small. Capricious and cruel, or Just and kind it matters not for most. Their fates are not their own. And so the story of Xlair Silverblade may have unfolded; sacrificed by his father to be a pawn of the Crystal Maiden the young man was marked as doomed by the terrible Armor of Arshava that cut and bled the man in eternal agony. But when great men are beset by the Gods they have options, they may be pawns. ~ But even pawns can cross the board.

Xlair Silverblade died so the Bloody Prince might stands among the Gods. He remains a champion of that cursed torturer, shackled yet though not for long. The Bloody Prince understands the importance of balance in all things. The Crystal Maiden seeks to consume all, to dethrone the other Gods and bring her Hierarchy of the Abyss to the world. This cannot come to pass. But so too must the Gods not cast down the Crystal Maiden for without her they will become idle and weak, prey for the Dragons.

In the quest to achieve balance in all things blood must be shed.

There will be suffering by some but the Bloody Prince will shoulder that burden. He will show the way.
