Picture this: a late spring evening, the smell of lilac is turning my head; I open the doors to the garden and take a deep breath. This is my world: the world that saw me kick and scream for the first time. This is my place of birth, my root, my home. It is the last evening that I will be spending here in a long time. My parents: Siebel and Arnett have decided it is time for me to discover the world outside these palace walls. And learn… And fight… “Survive to inherit the whole or die with purpose”.
You may have guessed, I come from a wealthy family. We are the cream of the Tiefling aristocracy and are well known for our “blue blood line”. People bow when we pass through the streets of our town (Petrograve – first grave stone to our most important ancestors). We are addicted to the past, our past, as much as we are addicted to the future we are passionately trying to build for ourselves. This decadence and infamous renown of my people around the world has been discussed and re-discussed until even the concept or its sounds have been analysed and understood and every single aspect of it broken down. There is nothing left to say. Time is for action. And this is what I enjoy best.
Words can only fulfil their destiny when action is their companion. I am here to prove our heritage is still alive and bring it to new heights of glory. Whether or not these new pages of history will require blood to be written is none of my concern. My purpose if to succeed. And succeed I will!After all, I have not been named the Serpent lady for nothing. I am Tanyth: wisdom and cunning altogether, no place for modesty.
