Emeraude
It had only been a few hours since the pillar finally passed on. Cephiro's Inhabitants were going to surely miss him greatly, because, even if he had lots of eccentricities and weird points of view, Starion dedicated his entire being to bring peace and prosperity to the land.
And now, that his life had already expired, Cephiro found itself in a complete state of uncertainty; it did not help that the ones that saw Starion being selected as a Pillar, were not the same as the ones that were now giving him his last goodbye.
Planet's decay was not all that notorious at first, but it did gradually happen; a flower that did not bloom or maybe a tree without fruits. One day there was a dry parcel and rivers that were not as full as before.
And before they actually noticed, Cephiro had already lost a big portion of its beauty. This is when the population began to actually fear.
However, in between all that darkness there was a little ray of sunshine in the form of a young noble lady. Said Lady was able to soothe people's hearts and minds with kind words, sweet smiles and the occasional healing spell; she was able to bring hope when there was only despair left.
For some people, Lady Emeraude was the closest thing they have to an actual ray of sunshine, for others, she was the best balm that help heal the wounds left by the constant fear; they did not know how she did it but she was able to make them dream of a world full of light and beauty once more.
Word of her deeds was soon known among all the villages; the story of a young beautiful girl, with blue eyes and a heart of gold, that with her words, her smiles or her extensive knowledge in the healing arts, that could make the worst of your days brighten considerably, was one that was constantly repeated with passion and emotion.
It's because of this, that nobody was really surprised when one day, out of the blue, the crown of the pillar appeared before her, choosing her as the next in line.
