Mythology & Lore
During Zero Year, a great crack opened up across the sky. Vile creatures of the far realms poured through, bringing with them chaos, destruction- and freedom. These beings, though invaders and alien to Thelekar, were capable of striking down gods long thought unkillable, ancient tyrants that people never had the capability to even think about defying. One of these creatures, the beast Ngaltha, fell from the sky after receiving a killing blow from Khoran himself, and their corpse landed in a hidden cove near a small village on an unknown continent. Though Ngaltha died, the infant Great One grew within their womb, protected for thousands of years from the careful watch of the Stormlord until his vigil waned for even a moment. At once, an old man crawled his way out of Ngaltha's body, many portions of his body shifting from human to horrid abomination. His arms were masses of tentacles, many eyes grew along the left side of his face, a wriggling tail protruded from his waist. As he laid his eyes upon the human population of the nearby village for the first time, his tentacles shifted into arms, and all but 2 of his eyes shut and faced away. The villagers named him Cyric, meaning "Eclipse" in their native tongue, and told him the story of his birth. Cyric remembered flashes of Ngaltha's last moments, seeing Khoran slash their torso open with his swordspear Cataclysm.
