Winter came early to Dericost, and did not leave.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
The halls of the palace sparkled with frost.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
One day, ships appeared from the east, gliding into the harbor.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
The women aboard these ships were strange… tall, with eyes of marble-green.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
They came to the palace, telling of their home &ndash; an island lost to darkness.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
The king had a son, Geraine &ndash; a sickly boy who coughed blood.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
The women offered him relief. If his mind was strong, he could have eternal life.<br />
<br /><br /><br />
Geraine traveled to the witches' island, and there he learned the truth.<br />
<br /><br /><br />

<br /><br /><br />
So Geraine became undead&hellip;<br />
<br /><br /><br />
The Firstborn.<br />
