Everyone knows the stories, but only I think they were true. Growing up me and my brother were always told stories about how our famous ancestor defeated the evil wizard and gained the support of the wizarding community everywhere. Actual events turned to word of mouth that turned to legend that turned into myth; the events that happened on that fateful day all of sudden turned to something everyone was afraid to talk about. We were forbidden to talk about that day since so many people lost their lives, good and evil, but nothing compared to the events that happened two hundred years later; my parents both fought in the War of Solitude and they both perished. My father went to the front lines and fought bravely until an assassin clipped him from behind with his automatic rifle and that gave my mother the distraction she needed to infiltrate the castle. She found her way in and found him; he shot my mother dead between the eyes and went to find me and my brother. We escaped with our lives and fled thousands of miles to where we live now; we are the last of our kind. Our people have lived for millions of years, even when he was live, but because of one person and his drones my brother and I are all that remains; we seek council from books about the past and come up short.
There is a story that I still tell my brother; it's the story of the Lightning Stone. This stone grants one elf the power to defeat any enemy it comes across and the only stone that will defeat him; it is said that the Lightning Stone is found in the most remote place on the Earth guarded by an ancient being. The quest is long and perilous, but whomever succeeds will be named the most powerful of all. Of course, this is also a legend, but I believe it's true. A thousand years ago a great evil was defeated and now another great evil has emerged; his name is a name we don't utter for a simple fact that people cower at the sound, and it is said that the current evil is somehow related to the defeated one, but that's a myth. There's also a myth that the descendant also has heirs, but they haven't been seen since Isadora and she's been long dead.
Many rumors are circulating, as of late, that a companion of his is still alive after all these centuries and she will guide the quest to the Stone, but no one knows who she is or where she resides. She traveled and went to school with the descendant and knows all his secrets, but she fell off the radar around 2016; her family is long dead and so are her relatives, but she still practices magic and carries it with her in an ancient wand. My brother and I had normal lives, living off the land and staying out of his way, until one day….
