The Adow

The Adow have reigned since the beginning of time—each ruler serving as anointed orator of the Sphere. Her authority is unquestioned. Armies follow her into battle and scholars record every prophecy she speaks. When a new Adow inherits the throne, however, the prophecies turn to lies and her warriors rally around a false prophecy, forcing her to lead them on a quest into the land of Morlac, God of another world.

“Warriors shouldn't sound like that.” Ayson says as his black horse shifts closer to the Adow.

“They're calling my name.” The Adow slowly wraps her black hair around her finger, listening to the staggered moans of the dying.
