The Secret History of the Evabon

by Jet556

From what could be called an apocalyptic battle was born the great shaman Wodanaz. From Wodanaz' want for a ring came a cycle lasting three generations. What comes from that, well that's the tale and you wouldn't want me to give it away.

6. Albaykh

Welcome back everyone. Enjoy and review.

Albaykh

Gold is a thing that can poison the mind. Magical gold was no exception. Albaykh, a Nomis with a head more like a fish's skull than a horse's, had sworn off love to create the greatest creation in existence. His ring would be the thing that could make one master of all the world. So it was that he had forged his ring, a helm that could make the wearer look like anyone or anything as well.

Indra had found him, deep beneath the earth. Laughing like a madman, Albaykh had his ring upon his finger and his helm upon his head while sitting upon a mountain of gold.

"I have come for gold to pay off some Labinnac, Albaykh." Said Indra.

"Take what you want, Indra, but the ring and the helm are mine!"

"I will take what I want and I shall take all of it, ring and helm included."

Albaykh laughed at this. What was this? Someone foolish enough to try and take his ring and helm from him? That was something! Taking the form of a Lindworm, Albaykh charged only for Indra to sidestep him and take the helm from his right horn. With his original form once more his, Albaykh snarled and held his right hand, the hand with the ring up.

"Now you shall know the power of the ring!"

But alas the ring did nothing. The ring was not some weapon of magic, it was rather a cursed object.

Taking the ring from Albaykh, Indra then grabbed a sack and placed all of the gold in it. The ring and the helm were in it as well and so it was that this gold would be used to pay for Noama and Kaheal and thus the curse would begin with them and no one else.
