​

Je Valrether was once among the nobles of Velarium.A name with authority, a voice that carried weight.On the day the new king was chosen, he stood before everyone in the square.

​

That square had no name then. When Je Valrether killed the king, the three nobles who sanctioned the decision, and their families in the center of it, the stones were soaked in blood.

Silence followed. From that day on, the place became known as Black Square.

Je Valrether did not die there. With the help of the people of Ordo, he was pulled from the crowd and escaped. He withdrew to the mountains, beyond the reach of the nobles. They could not destroy him. They only believed he was gone.

​

In Orendon, a king is chosen every 13 years. And as each cycle approaches, whispers spread that Je Valrether will return from the mountains. Because some names are not erased by exile.
They wait.
