It was a normal day in the Dalish elf clan, surrounded by the bright ironbark trees, birds chirping and Halla running around in the forest. The Keeper; the sworn protector of her clan sat out by the bonfire teaching the young Dalish children of their Ancestry. She smiled at the children as they went back to their parents, the keeper would look to the sky to see it turn to a dark fiery blaze as Stars fell from the sky onto Theidas. The Keeper rushing everyone inside to the safety of a nearby cavern; She came out and looked back up to see a star rushing towards the camp. The Keeper jumped out of the way as it crashed into the encampment, the hunters ran out to her lifting her to her feet. One of the Hunters walked towards the crater with their longbow drawn, surprised to see a small Elven child with platinum white hair laying in the crater; crying. "Keeper!" The hunter yelled, "You should come see this!" The keeper forced herself through the pain and limped towards the crater, grabbing onto the hunters' shoulder "My word; a child!" She quickly limped to the child and scooped them up into her arms, wrapping them up in her shawl, the baby calmed rather easily, feeling the comforting warmth and calming beat of a protective mother and fell fast asleep. The keeper sighed in relief, knowing the baby was going to be okay. An insane old human hermit emerges from a withered, dead, hollow tree trunk and ran towards the Keeper, the hunters drew their weapons and pointed them towards the Hermit "HALT!" Demanded one of the hunters "State your business!", the hermit answered the hunters in a terrified tone "You must be rid of thy child!" Stated the Hermit "It tis' a dangerous demon that will be impossible to stop after it learns of its purpose!” The hunters scoffed at the Hermit "Tis’ but a child that the gods have blessed us with, we will not listen to your insane accusations!" "Don't say I didn’t warn ye" said the hermit as they slowly crept away into the darkness of his stump with a sinister cackle "He gave me the creeps" said a cowardly hunter. The Keeper shook her head and walked away into her tent rocking the baby back and forth "We'll have to find a name for you Dal'en" the keeper said in a soothing tone as she laid the baby down in a woven vine crib after swaddling her in their shawl. The keeper walked to her bedroll and laid down to rest. Several hours later the baby started to cry out in the night from a nightmare the keeper jolted up from her sleep and slowly scrambled from her bedroll to the baby, her eyes widen as she sees the babies vallaslin glowing a bright blue "Lyrium?” Said the keeper said in a confused tone. Then she snaps her fingers as her eyes light up "That’s it! Somniari! That shall be your name" said the keeper as she scooped Somniari from the crib; smiling. Somniari started to glow brighter as a sudden wave of force pushed the keeper into a wall hard making Somniari fall to the floor crying, hunters rushed in to see what the noise was "Keeper!" One of the hunters called out "are you alright?!" They all rushed towards the keeper as the hermit snuck past them all with a knife. The hermit grabbed Somniari and raised the knife to the air, about to stab her when one of the hunters hastily turned drawing his weapon to the hermit and cutting his throat, quickly grabbing Somniari before the hermit dropped her. The keeper stood up and limped to the hunter and thanked him as she took Somniari into her arms and sang a dalish lullaby to Somniari "Elgara Vallas, da'len Melava somniar Mala taren aravas Ara ma'desen melar Iras ma ghilas, da'len Ara ma ne'dan Ashir Dirthara lothlenan'as Bal Emma mala dir Tel'enfenim, da'len Irassal ma ghilas Ma garas mir Renan Ara ma'athlan vhenas Ara ma'athlan vhenas" Somniari cooed and smiled at the keeper as she slowly fell asleep, the keeper laid Somniari back down in the crib and told all of the still tired hunters to leave for bed as she limped back to her bedroll and laid down. Five years later, someone walks into Somniaris tent and shakes her lightly “Hey, time to get up” Said the girl, Somniaris eyes slowly opened as she yawned, the girl smiled at Somniari; “Who are you?” asked Somniari “My name’s Varilva, The Keeper sent me to wake you up, She has a special test for you and I’m supposed to accompany you during it” Varilva answered swiftly. “What kind of test is it?” Somniari asked Varilva nervously, Varilva was hesitant to answer Somniari “You’re going to have to ask the Keeper about that, I’m not allowed to disclose what it's about” Somniari sighs “So where do we go first?” “First we need to get the right supplies” Varilva said, explaining to Somniari as they walked towards the Weaponsmith “Hello Master Ethian” Varilva uttered with a smile “Why hello there Da’len what brings you here?” Ethian asks, Somniari tried to speak but was interrupted by Varilva “We’re here to borrow your best bow so that this young one may pass their test” Somniari tugged on Varilvas shoulder and spoke shyly “I'm not an archer; I'm a mage” “Oh, well than i guess I'll be borrowing a bow for if things go wrong” Varilva smiled as Ethian handed her his finest bow with ornate designs “Ma serannas Master Ethian” She turned to Somniari and hurried her along towards the ironbark forests “Now, all you have to do is kill your first wolf” “But I wasn't taught any fighting spells. Only ones that may heal others in need” Somniari said with a frightened tone as she looked around the untamed forest “You're a Dalish elf! You aren't supposed to be afraid of the Forest!” Exclaimed Varilva angrily before she was interrupted by the howling of a Wolf. Varilva listened intently for where the howl came from and pointed in the direction of where it came from and whispered “It's nearby, stay quiet and kill your prey” “Poor girl, you are the prey” Said a deep raspy voice from behind the bushes, all Varilva and Somniari could see were the Silvery yellow, bloodthirsty eyes of a dangerous beast “Run back to the Camp” Varilva whispered to Somniari “But what about you? What is that thing?” Somniari answered swiftly as Varilva roughly pushed Somniari back in the direction of the camp “Run!” yelled Varilva as she drew back an arrow aimed at the Beast, Somniari ran as fast as she could as the hairy beast stood on its hind legs, standing at 7 feet tall. Varilvas screams echoed throughout the forest while Somniari ran as fast as she could whilst the beast chased her. A root from one of the ironbark trees seem to move and trip Somniari, she flinches and thrusts her hands forward; freezing the beast in its track “Somniari!!!” yelled Varilva as she ran towards Somniari who was cowering in fear, Varilva covered in her own blood shook Somniari “Somniari! Snap out of it!” she scooped them into her arms and limped to the camp, Somniari still shaking terribly in fear. The keeper ran to them with a distraught expression “What happened to you two?!” she asked as everyone hurried over to the two children, their expressions display their worry and curiosity
