Slain in duty.
This simple summary is all that marks the grave of a figure more legend than human in today's society. Simple yet dignified it does not sit in the Royal cemetery alongside her father or young brother, but in the graveyard set upon Silent Hill, where the other Fallen lay in their eternal rest.
But by all accounts in life Rhea did not fall into the background and was not so easily lost among a crowd.
Most know Rhea for her creations - the Sjælden - once ordinary items enchanted to perform miraculous feats that allowed even the ungifted human to wield a portion of a Dreadlords power. Many of these were lost or destroyed during the Third Elven Wars, when they were used once more to ensure the Anirian Kingdom did not fall to the savagery of the elves. However, a few still remain. One we know sits within the crown of the King, though its purpose has long since been forgotten, and a small collection now reside with the Guard.
In this book I will lay out my findings and reasonings behind where we might find those still unaccounted for.
