In the verdant heartlands of Senetra, nestled on the eastern banks of the Serpent River, an old stone cottage stands resolute. Amid the emerald sea of whispering reeds, it harbors an entity as ancient as the surrounding terrain. Here resides Cylina, the Senior Seer of the Augurian Collegia, an embodiment of calm wisdom and unyielding spirit.
Cylina's story begins in the midst of Senetra's age of turmoil, tracing back to a time when arcane mages fought fierce battles. She never showed the signs of being an ordinary child. More often than not, she was found lost in the intricate etchings of the ancient scroll maps and dusty tomes in her father's library, a habit she quickly garnered due to her childhood friend, Esmund. Esmund, son to one of the famed Arcane Scholars, sparked Cylina's fascination for magic.
Esmund became more than just a friend over the formative years of her life. They developed a bond that surpassed friendship–a bond crafted from the threads of shared curiosities, dreams, and destiny. Soon, the lure of the arcane led them to the Collegia, the institute of Magic–a sanctuary to those blessed with the touch of the arcane.
With a mind fueled by wisdom and a heart burning with determination, Cylina rose in ranks within the Collegia. Her innate talent as a battle air mage was undeniable. Her calm demeanor juxtaposed her dangerous position, earning her the respect of allies and the fear of foes. She conducts herself with an air of confidence, twirling her favorite weapon, a staff made of the mythical Lisarsil tree, in sync with her graceful steps, producing gusts of wind that could either heal or havoc.
As her power grew, so did her relationship with Esmund. They often spent calm evenings by the perennial Serpent River, weaving tales of adventures in distant lands, of battles won and lost. Their hearts intertwined, a crescendo of emotions that culminated in a beautiful marriage. Their bond was the embodiment of a fable, a love story that the bards of the Collegia would often hum.
However, amid the tranquil stream of Cylina's life, a typhoon of misfortune arose. Esmund fell victim to a dreadful curse that condemned his soul to an endless sleep. This incident marked a drastic shift in her life. The lively Cylina turned solemn. She threw herself into her work with a newfound fervor, using her gift to unravel the mysteries of her husband's condition.
Her current pursuit involves decoding a prophecy, which she believes holds the key to breaking Esmund's sleep curse. Despite the danger that skirts her every move, her spirit remains indomitable. Cylina mirrors the ancient tree, the Lisarsil, her favorite weapon is made from. Firmly rooted against gales, unwavering in face of storms, drawing wisdom from the earth, delivering justice through wind and air. Her tumultuous dream to sway the rhythm of destiny and restore her beloved Esmund from his endless slumber pivots the wheel of fate; Cylina courageously forges onwards in her tireless quest, refusing to bow to the intimidating tide of cosmic turmoil.
