#950, "Kaeldran's Role Chapter 7"
|
RoleChapter 7 + The Storm and the Child Added Mon Mar 15 16:51:14 2004 at level 1:It was well over a hundred years ago when the birth of Kaeldran took place. Amidst the stormy seas where his giant kin lived, a great tempest swelled. Among the giants of the storm, this was seen as a blessing, especially if a child was born as the eye of the storm hovered over them.
On this night, the birth of a baby was marked by such a blessing. His parents named him Kaeldran Matterok, meaning 'Child of the Storm's Eye'. As his parents held their new child in their nurturing arms, a malevolent chuckle was heard above the din of the storm. The clouds swirled and a face appeared. "I have plans for this one." With that, the winds howled and a great rush of air tore Kaeldran from his parent's arms and flung him into the tempest.
The storm had carried the child far away from his home. He landed safely in a pasture of wild grass as the winds ceased and the tempest dissipated. It may have seemed that the child was alone, but the divine presence that tore him from the arms of his mother and father also blessed him to be able to survive. The animals of the forest were heeded by the immortal and watched closely over the infant. Food and protection was provided by a pack of wolves, several deer lead him to water sources, and the smaller creatures of the forest provided companionship in times of loneliness. So Kaeldran grew safely in his environment, never seeing another like his kind, but becoming the child of the forest.
Years of growth went by. The child never learned the tongue of man, but came to understand the language of the animals. He ate and drank and enjoyed the bounty of nature. It was one sunny day that a storm appeared out of nowhere. Kaeldran grew quite afraid and looked for some shelter, but an invisible power held him fast. He looked with horror up in the sky as a face appeared in the clouds. "My child, your name is Kaeldran, kin to the giants of the storm. I brought you here many years ago so that I could shape you into the servant you must become for me. You will never know who your biological parents are, nor will you ever be allowed to search for your true home. The meaning of your life is to be the servant I require. You must go forth in the world and let them know that I come. Go now, for I have blessed you with the knowledge you need to survive in the world of man, just as I have caused nature to let you survive in her world."
With that, the storm ceased and the sun shone brightly. Kaeldran was free to move and realized he had understood all that had been said to him. Vast insight into the world was afforded him, as well as the gift of man's language. While the identity of the divine presence that ordered him into the world was yet unknown to him, he looked around and started walking in the direction he knew Galadon to be.
The immortal laughed to himself... "A great puppet he shall be to me. I look forward to the destiny he shall fulfill..."
