I own nothing! And remember, ALL of me Fanfics take place in the same universe. How? Liberal abuse of the Timey-Whimey Ball and Lovecraftian Magic! *ahem* Onto the Story!
Chapter 1: Prolouge
Gwyn, Lord of Cinder was dead, and Solair and the Chosen Undead stood before a small pit of glowing embers with a sword in it, the remains of the First Flame, an aspect of the Flame Imperishable. Not that they knew that part of history.
"Ar't thou ready to lead humankind through the next Age of Fire?" Asked Solair.
"Yea. I am ready. Are thou? Thee knows what thee shalt have to do."
Solair nodded, and walked up to the pit, and grasped the sword, igniting the fire, and engulfing himself in flames. He turned to look at the Chosen Undead, and said "it was a great pleasure participating in Jolly Co-operation with thee!" The Chosen Undead sent him the 'Praise the Sun'* gesture, and walked out of the Kilen of the First Flame, to lead Humankind. Solair turned back to the inferno and said "my quest is over. I have found my very own Sun! No, I am the Sun!" There was a searing pain, but only for a moment. Then he became the planets Sun. Most would have mearly burned, but Solair's devotion to the Sun made him become the Sun that his world orbited. Billions of years later, it died, and Solair got his old human Undead body back. When he opened his eyes, Solair was surprised to find himself in some sort of… area that existed outside of the mortal realms. Looking forward, he beheld a figure from which shone a great light, too bright to make out anymore then an outline.
"What manner of being ar't thou?" Asked Solair.
"I am Eru Ilúvatar." Replied the being.
Solair quickly bowed, before straightening and asked "the legends are true then? The great land of Middle Earth exists?"
Eru Ilúvatar was not surprised that Solair knew of Arda and Middle Earth, time and space could be... unpredictable.(Blame Nyarlathotep!) He responded "Yes."
"Why hath thee brought me here? Am I not dead?"
"Thee ar't dead, however, I have seen thy actions, and offer thee a chance to give protection to those that lack the power to protect themselves. In another time and place, the forces of darkness assault a world of survivors, a world named Remnant. If thee should accept my offer, thee shalt be transported there to aid in man's defence."
"I will accept thy offer, and I thank thee for giving me another chance. But I must ask thee what hath become of my friend?"
"He ruled humans through a new Age of Fire, but In time, the flame faded once more and he sacrificed himself to rekindle it, but twice, a descendent of his rekindled it, once in a land called Drangleic, another in the land of Lothric."
"It is good that his descendants hath protected future kingdoms. But about this Remnant, does it have Bonfires?"
"Yes. The Age of Fire hath affected all of Eä, (the universe) so the Bonfires* thee are familiar with are plentiful."
"It brings me great relief to hear that. Will I get my god powers back?"*
"…no."
"Awwwww…"
"Go, son of Gwyn. Spread thy light far and wide. Thy ar't the sun itself, the light to drive back the darkness."
Then Death appeared and said "I'll take you to where you need to go. Get in the carriage."So Solair got in the carriage, and Death grabbed the reigns, shouted "HYA!" As he cracked them. And off they went through time and space. Millions of years later, Solair was literally kicked off over the Emerald Forest.
•Praise the Sun gestire in Stickman form: \o/
•Bonfires are fires directly linked to the First Flame, and allow an Undead to come back to life.
* (Fan Cannon/Lore!) Solair was the son of Gwyn, who was basically the God of Sunlight. Solair was one of his sons, and was next in line to become the new Sun God. He was also the God of War for a little while when his older twin brother, the Nameless King (the previous god of war) betrayed his family and joined the Everlasting Dragons, who Solair's family and others were at war with.
