Neritia

Notable Elf

Famous for: Longest Living Elf at 932 years old

Neritia was an elf that saw the planting of Aroboa. She was taken in by the goddess Auta and the god Gaug who was working on their own race of peoples. She knew that she was to be tasked with helping to hold the fates of the fledgling race in her hands. So she was the one that sat day in and day out with the growing trees and pods of the very first Vitaen. She was the one who cultivated the forests of the tree women when they were as yet babes. Thanks to the slow growth of the Vitaen she put off the sleep for far longer then any other elf. She saw kingdoms rise and crumble, she saw dragons destroy and she saw human kind rebuild. She took on the weight of the world onto her slim shoulders and still she pressed on. For her fate was to see the kingdom of the Vitae flourishing and successful.

When the Vitae finally matured into adulthood, Neritia had the problem of wrangling them in. For they were patient and passive people, not willing to act too quickly. Perhaps due to her advanced age and the sorrows that built up on her soul, Neritia was less then patient with the fledgling Vitaen but she still refused the great sleep. For to succumb to the great sleep would be to deny her own fate.

Finally, finally in her nine hundredth and thirty second year Neritia saw the first queen of Aroboa crowned and she felt her fate complete. Alas her forswearing sleep so long her soul suffered irreparable harm, and despite a lengthy recycling period where she slept for centuries whenever Neritia is reborn her soul is already burdened. As a reward for such sacrifice to serve fate Vexious has granted Neritia permanent sleep. Though if the world needs her again he is willing to revoke that.
