The Arcane Age, the time where an unknown energy emerged from an unknown place and surrounded the whole world also known as the most chaotic period of Kavran. There was a young sylphen mercenary whose name is Edrail who was sent into an important mi...

Edrail Endalier's POV
I have just arrived at an uncertain part of the Elzehiar forest. I don't know where exactly this place was, but maybe, after a few observations in this forest, I may know where am I already.
I took my alligator skinned bag with my left hand from my back while observing the forest. The day is pleasant, I can clearly see the trees , their trunks and branches are bronze in color with vibrant azure wisps and sparkles around them, the leaves of each tree are clean emerald without mentioning that those leaves are beautified by the good sunlight penetrating through them. And of course, I can feel the magical energies surrounding in each of them. That means, I'm here, at the Eastern part of Elzehiar, one of the most peaceful yet wide area of this forest.
This is it, at least I may have a private time for myself. Now, it's time to write.
I get my eagle feather pen from my old bag and a piece of folded papyrus. Now I will begin the things I must write before I begin my mission.
My name is Edrail Endalier, I am a 24 year old sylphen lady and I am on an important mission in which the Elven Empress herself ordered me, I have no right to defy the order of the Empress because her subjects adopted me. She also gave me good teachers that also taught me how to live and fight this mysterious world. By the time I was 19, with the order of the Empress, I was declared a new mercenary for the Empire. And now, I am one of her elite mercenaries.
I cannot write in this paper the exact details of the mission that the Empress and her high ranking advisers ordered me because of it's great importance, danger and great risks. As well as the risk of having dangerous foes on my way.
People may think that I am just a tedious woman, but when the Arcane Age opened, warring kingdoms began, death duels and many civil wars become common, as if killing becomes part of many creature's daily life. For me, this period is the most bloody and despicable, almost all types of magic have become powerful in this period, making many creatures corrupted, defiled, sickly and have great lust for power. The environment, the animals and many other more, many of them, were altered, not to mention, the world's changing too. Sudden disasters, calamities, racial extinctions and unexpected storms appear without warning all over this word. And on top of that, a seemingly all-enveloping energy unknown to all of this world which acts like a plague, bringing pestilence all over the surface of all lands and seas. How I wish I'd be successful in order to bring stability around the world..... so I may have a normal life. A normal life that a normal sylphen woman should have.
I want to admit, yes, I really want to experience adventure. I was seeking for it, but instead, adventure found me and to be honest, it really didn't seemed nice.
I am writing all of these words for a reason that, if at least, I died doing this dangerous task, I would like someone or whoever it may be, to know that I, Edrail Endalier truly existed.
I packed my things up, it was slightly heavy, and intentionally left the journal under a large healthy tree with hopes that someone could find and read it. If possible, I hope I could meet the person who reads the journal.
Now, I must begin. I will do my very best to accomplish my mission... To search for the place where all of this began.
