lyrics

Helfeste, the Goddess of the Hunt's personal garden, is a place of legend. While many people know the stores of this enchantingly beautiful, yet simple glade, none know its precise location.

Legend says that Mviah's best friend was her silver dragon, Kennevy. The story says that the goddess rescued the dragon from certain death after a blast from a rival monster sent it plummeting from the air. After shooting the evil monster from the sky with her golden crossbow, Mviah ran to the creature's aid, and nursed the dragon for the next 14 years until the dragon was able to fly on her own again.

In the time of nursing, Mviah and the dragon Kennevy established an unbreakable bond of friendship and love. Mviah was bolstered by Kennevy's courage and willingness to survive, and Kennevy learned how to be compassionate and how to love another being.

One day, Mviah was out hunting in the forest of Yddramis when she heard a cry for help. Running to the source of the shout she was mortified to see that there was a small child being attacked by a pack of monsters. Without a second thought, the goddess rushed forward with intent to save the child.

However, this was nothing more than a ruse. As the goddess reached the child, an enchanted trap was sprung, encasing her in a pyramid of binding magic. The child smiled, and transformed into the very evil monster she had shot out of the sky nearly 15 years ago when she saved Kennevy. As the evil monster prepared a spell that would shatter the pyramid and kill the goddess, Kennevy rushed through the forest, and in an ultimate sacrifice, used her latent magical skills to push through the pyramid, knocking Mviah free but trapping herself just moments before the deadly trap exploded.

Mviah shot down the evil monster for good, but mourned greatly over the loss of her close friend.

In honor of her slain friend, the goddess Mviah poured a bottle of her collected tears out onto the ground. In it's place sprung up the blessed glade of Helfeste.

The hidden glade is a magical garden in which every member of flora within is a shimmering silver color, from the silver roses that adorn its golden walkways to the silver waters that run through it's creek. Every plant within bursts with latent life energy, and a mortal could use these plants to grant himself eternal youth. This glade represents the eternal mourning that Mviah experiences when she remembers Kennevy's sacrifice to save her own life.
