The Death of The Five Lions

The Five Lions went into the Vast, against the advice of their King and without anyone knowing where they had gone.

The lovers saw their relationship die, as each day they drifted further apart.

The largest saw his faith in his new deity tested and found himself strong in his beliefs.

The priest found his convictions and needs did not receive the support from the others.

They traveled to find the Dark Lord and his minions, to end the threat to their home.

What they found was the man who had betrayed their country, strengthened by the alliance he had made.

Though they had warned others about him, he had been allowed to go unquestioned and strengthened his hold within the Vast and against Theonalar.

Though their battle was valiant and their need to survive strong, one by one, each fell to the Dark Lord’s minions.

Angus died in battle, the first to leave this world.

Postuellyo died soon thereafter, crying out the name of his god as the killing blow fell upon him.

Tal met his fate at the hands of the man who tortured him.

Natani met her fate at those same hands, after watching the man she had loved slowly tortured to death and regretting that they would never be able to make their apologies to each other.

Of the Lions, only Kaz survived, though where he is now, no one knows.
