Role

Chapter 3

Teth Azeleth is chaos incarnate with a strange set of rules for the rise and
War of Houses. And one of those rules tolerates no room for failure. So with
the failed coup of her House on the higher House, the feeding frenzy on her
own House was... unavoidable and devastating in its brutality.

She staggered through the caverns of the Underdark and patrols to Teth
Azeleth she avoided, less they recognize her as a survivor of all who were
now dead. As she got farther away, she was too pathetic for the patrols to
take notice of, remember, or even care about.

It was the other creatures of the Underdark she needed to worry about. And
worry she did, using her non-martial warrior training to survive. A battle
with a cave lizard ensued and was of epic proportions from her perspective.
Fortunately the nightmares of displacer beasts and ceiling shriekers did not
materialize, though the cavefishers scraping always down the tunnels rarely
let her sleep.

Yet for the first time in her life, away from the chaos of Teth Azeleth, a
discovery was made. It was made in the orderly resonance of the always
constant radiation of the subterranean Underdark. Her sorcery was found. And
while it was minor: chill touches, lightning bolts, and a curse or
blindness... she found a resonance in that subterranean world despite all the
chaotic death and destruction that roamed its cavernous habitat. It was the
first small success in a long life of failures.
