The Fellwyrm's Nemesis
Ifrit the Fellwyrm is known for his love
of strength and duels. Warriors
aspiring to greatness would do well
to seek him out and challenge him
to a bout.
A soldier from Kleifheim was one
such contender. He fought Ifrit and
was defeated, unable to claim the
dragon's power for his own.
Ifrit was impressed by the soldier,
however, and praised his efforts.
"You are a man of great valor; of this
there can be no doubt. I never
imagined to meet a human like you."
"But ultimately, you are but one
human. If you are to fashion yourself
a hero in this chaotic world, the time
will come when you meet an
unbeatable enemy."
"On that day, turn to a flame and
speak my name thrice. I will hasten
to your side, and together we shall
defeat your foe."
"But remember this: I will face only
one enemy. The strongest one. I have
no interest in picking off hordes of
weaklings should you find yourself
surrounded."
The soldier, a naturally gifted warrior,
was struck by the Fellwyrm's spirit.
"I shall find you a satisfying foe," he
said, and resolved to call upon the
Fellwyrm on that day alone.
The soldier to whom the Fellwyrm had
taken such a liking soon became a
general of Kleifheim. Twenty years
passed. One day, without any
warning, the sun blinked out.
The solar eclipse upended the
balance of the mana and threw the
laws of nature into chaos. All living
creatures lost their power, while the
dead rose up and walked the earth.
These rotting abominations
advanced on Kleifheim. The soldiers
did their best to fend them off, but
there were too many; the mass of
corpses stretched to the far horizon.
Just as they were starting to lose
hope, the general hoisted his torch
and shouted, "Ifrit! Ifrit! Ifrit!"
Smoke billowed forth from the torch,
and Ifrit was there. But when he
asked to see his enemy and the
general indicated the army of
undead, Ifrit shook his head.
"Have you forgotten?" asked Ifrit.
"I will battle but a single foe."
The general cursed Ifrit, but his wife,
calm beside him, pointed up to the
dark skies.
"Oh mighty Ifrit, our enemy is the very
night itself. I implore you, find a way
to drive it back!" This made the
dragon chuckle, for he found it to
be a worthy opponent indeed.
Ifrit bounded into the heavens and
used his great strength to push the
moon aside and reveal the sun.
The army of undead crumbled to
ash at once under its light.
"I have defeated your foe, human,"
laughed Ifrit. "And what a foe it was!"
Satisfied, he turned and flew off
into the distance.
