Overview
Drawn from Falthrik Lothoro, Kerra Isle — npc dialogue.EQ1Primary · mirrored · best available source
"Grrrreetings. traveler. Falthrik tells his [stories] now. Seat yourself near the fire if you wish to [listen]."
"Once Falthrik was mighty saiar but no more. Years have weakened Falthrik's knees. made his back frail. dulled his once powerful claws. Falthrik now earns his rank and keep in the pride by telling stories. amusing the people. teaching the young his knowledge with stories."
"Rrrrr. Many stories Falthrik has to tell. Most would not suit you. would not translate to common well but perhaps I tell you [history] of Kerrans. stories of their past and present."
"So you wish to listen? That is good. Then sit. listen to the story of the pride. Our stories all start the same. In the beginning there was the mighty Kejaan. No one remembers the lineage of Kejaan. Many think he didn't have one. It is said no god made him. that his spirit came from the winds and his body from the rocks. Wherever he came from. his [legends] are many."
"Kejaan traveled the land of Odus far and wide. He visited the splintered and fighting tribes of Kerrans and gathered together his companions. Kerrans of power and knowledge. Together Kejaan and his companions tamed the wild lands of Odus. They journeyed through jungle. desert. and beach killing monsters and evil. They made the land safe for all Kerrans. This is when the [golden time] started."
"Rrrrr.. The golden time. After Kejaan and his companions tamed the lands. he came back to the splintered tribes. With his strength of claw and mind. he [united] all the Kerran people around him. made them into a mighty civilization. Made them strong and smart."
"For many hundreds of years. Kerrans were mighty and wise. Elves. dwarves. humans. all races knew the might of Kerra. All things end though. and our empire fell eventually. our proud history and achievements torn apart and destroyed by the foul Erudites. We could have shared land but the haughty Erudites would not share. so they [destroyed]."
