Vystor'ium Lore

About a decade ago, A sacred box was given to an unknown entity who was called Xaphyrs. Told never to open it as the box was set for destruction, however, he did. When he peered inside the box he seen thirteen medium sized beads, Each one appeared ominous and intriguing. Swirling about in a circular motion, following one another. Xaphyrs studied them for a minute, hearing a noise behind him he quickly grabbed and stow’d them away. Scrambling to close the box in time.

The being that had given Xaphyrs the box containing the beads, came back into the room. Xaphyr unaware the being had been observing him, frantically trying to close the box. Once the box was put back neatly, the being called him over. Asking if he had got what he needed. Xaphyr looked at him with a sharp menacing glare, “What is it you speak of?” The being retorted, “You know exactly what I am talking about.” “No” replied Xaphyr. Turning to walk away, the being said, “Halt, I am Euslar and I observed you tampering with the box. Now answer truthfully, Did... you... Get... what... you... needed?” As Euslar began to ask the question once more his eyes started to turn a glowing red. Xaphyrs feeling the power of Euslar beginning to fill the room, he cracked. “I took them, knowing I shouldn’t have.” Euslar, “I know, it felt as if I was connected to them when the box got opened.”

Odd tension forming in the air as Euslar realizing that he has had an encounter with these beads before. All of a sudden it dawned on him that these beads were actually his creation he once tinkered with. His boss told him to throw the box out and without inspecting the box it was going to.be destroyed. Xaphyrs started to look puzzled as the appearance of Euslar’s face changed from irritation to a confused joy. Euslar’s demeanor quickly changing as he turned to Xaphyrs motioning to follow.

The two walked for some time, leaving the box behind as it served no real purpose. They eventually got to the tavern picking a table that was off in the corner and ordered some brew. Whilst they waited for the brew to be served Xaphyrs looked over towards Euslar and pointed down to where he stored the beads. Euslar acknowledged his motion and started filling him in on the powers that were placed upon them, exclaiming originally it was one large bead representing a powerful planet. However, upon waking up one morning, “tearing up” I went to go check on Khronos as usual and it was shaking, I could see piles of dust being kicked up, lightning soaring fast across the sky, noises that almost sounded alive from another being that was far away. However, it only occurred in the room. I sat and observed for sometime, eventually the dust died down and what was once one large bead, planet, turned into what lies in front of us here, thirteen medium sized beads with either a continent or dimension on it.

Euslar motions for Xaphyrs to cautiously pull one out. Euslar grabs it, holds it up so that only they can see it. Euslar says, “Ah this one is Vystor’ium…” A faint pause passes from being interrupted as something appeared within… Looking over at Xaphyrs, asking, “you see that?” As he points towards the snowy region. Xaphyrs replying, “Indeed, but I couldn't make much of it.” Euslar,” Must've been one of the dragons lighting up the forge.” Xaphyrs eyes widen with excitement, “well light my forge and bestow me with more knowledge.” “If you insist young one, just keep in mind, these were meant to be destroyed, if you are caught with them bad things happen.” Xaphyrs kind of shrugs it off and just wants to be enlightened. After all they are unique. Euslar proceeds to tell him the story of what is happening within the continent of Vystor’ium… Before we get too in depth, Xaphyrs interjects, how are you able to know so much of what's going on? Euslar retorts, “stay awhile and listen, you'll eventually understand and perhaps be able to do it as well.
