Raj'an

Origin

I go by Raj'an, or Raj for short. My given name is Raj'an Bronzesnout. My family is originally from the Empire of Nine. What I was young, my it was discovered that i had some innate magical ability and so i was given to the military schools to begin working in the army. Over several years, we learned the basics of fighting with weapons, the history of the empire, which later i found out was more heavily in their favor, and were tought how to control the power within us. The last part, was the most difficult part I have had to deal with. Infact, I could not master many things. Through a desire to change who I was, I learned of the spell to disguise ones self. Unfortunately I learned that the duration of the spell was much too short. Sadden by this, especially with the time it took to learn the spell, I looked for something that I can work with. Thankfully, being in a millitary house of eduvcation, the Library was filled with books. One day, I heard a voice that was calling to me, and found it was within the forbidden section of the library. I used my one spell to appear as a officer of the school so I could look for this voice that was calling to me and finally I found it.

The voice was coming from a book about the teachings of Khoro, the god of Civilization and Law. I snook the book into my room and read it every night. Between my teaching every day, i read and became enthralled with each and every word. The day after I have read the last page, I felt like something was off and had a dream of a terrible disaster for a huge magic city, thinking it was only a dream. I was 25 when we were doing some combat training with each other. When I struck my opponent, a streak of light hit him. Nothing too strong, but a normal person could have been very much hurt. I was immediately pulled in for questioning and my room searched. They found the book and I was interegated.

In the empire of Nine, each member of the military, even students, are marked with a magic glyph over their back which represents their rank. That is when i learned why the book was in the forbiden section, all religion was banned from the government. Fearing what may happen, I did only a small prey to be able to runaway to Khoro, and my wish was answered. I disguised myself and mannaged to run away from the empire. I traveled as far east as I could with the little I had. Every night I had the same dream.

Somehow, I came into reach a city far in the distance that was completely destroyed that looked just like my dream. It was then I realized it was nothign from a future that I saw, but the past. I slept there in sight of the city and had a dream. A dragon in gold with a brilliant gem in her brow Came to me with a messager from Khoro that I must look for an orb in a town. This orb was destined for the revival of the city I saw.
