Once the God of Valour, '''Arion''' was weakened during a fight with the | |||
[[Kerrithrim]] and was defeated to such a state that even His essence was | |||
nearly consumed. Weakened to such a degree, it was only after the | |||
essence of the [[Lanos|Lord of Truth]] had finally escaped from the [[Shadow Plane|Plane of Shadow]] and fused with Arion that He recovered His strength. With the | |||
accumulated strength of both deities, Lord Arion was able to return to | |||
the material world. | |||
With the revelations that Lanos had received in His isolation in the | |||
realm of Shadows, Arion's core tenets had now shifted their focus from | |||
Valour to the search for Truth, for much of the world has been distorted | |||
by the vices of Corruption and the subtle manipulations of Artifice. | |||
Unfortunately, in His aim, He fell victim to that same Corruption, such | |||
that He became a God of Shadow, possessed by the wiles of the Shadow | |||
Mother. So it was that the God of Valour and Truth finally perished. | |||
An arrow will only fly straight, though if it is marred with | |||
imperfections in its build, will not strike true. It is thus that if one | |||
is distracted by unnecessary ideals and emotions, one will only fail to | |||
achieve his ultimate goal. | |||
Twin swords - one the golden Blade of Valour and the other the | |||
fiery Sword of Truth, poised upright towards the air in parallel - were | |||
the Truthseeker's symbol. | |||
