Morrigan's first memory is of the swirling, choking, mist which obscured her vision. It was consuming her, utterly, until nothing was left... Leaving only a shell, walking forward, endlessly, until even her own consciousness faded as well.
When the Shadar-Kai awoke, she found herself in an unfamiliar place, among people she did not know, or understand. Her mind a fog, unable to remember anything except the mist... Leaving her stranded in this foreign land.
The elf found work as a bouncer, only to leave once her infamy began to grow... Becoming an outcast, the woman now known as a Witch of Ash, left to find her own purpose, and soon, she decided to dedicate herself to destroying the mist that had once consumed her.
She has learned, and experienced much since then, becoming hardened by battle and scarred by harrowing experiences... She found solace in the worship of Ilrune, became aware of her apparent connection amd aptitude in Witchcraft, and is still utterly mystified by her lost past.
The woman continues on, struggling through the trials and tribulations before her, in the hopes that she may one day find her past, and dismantle the fog that chokes the world with it's corrupting presence...
The sounds of thunder and, explosions, followed by bright flames and radiant lights filled the skies above the O.G.R.E. leaving behind ash and mist in the battle's wake, the sight one to behold as some three dozen monsters were felled whilst the great abomination in the sky was given a lasting scar by the efforts of those who had bravely ventured up into the surface to face the unending waves of fray.
Though almost none returned with physical injury, and those that did were hardly life threatening- the toll that was paid was deeper than flesh and blood...
The Ashen Witch returns, almost catatonic, wisps of mist and embers burning it away lingering on her as she stumbles along in her companion's arms, looking around somehow both vacant and fixated- her entire bearing broken down by whatever happened up there.
The woman was not allowed much time in the public eye before being hidden away in her home, the Cinder's Rest would be closed for some time, hopefully to allow the elf to recover from whatever had happened to her.
Absolutely lovely play, thought provoking, and left me wanting more...
