The Dove of Steel (23)

“The White Wolf was only bred for battle, as were the Cetrans, and with the White Wolf wielding the weapon known as Atomos, they were an invincible force in battle. The worst part was that they were all itching for battle, it being the only thing they knew.”

“The world was weak, and panicking, for even at their full strength the Cetrans would be a considerable foe, but now that they were weakened, they would be utterly annihilated. Then something strange happened.”

“The White Wolf rallied a large portion of the Cetrans, and marched them off into somewhere that even today scholars debate. What we do know is that they never returned, and the remaining Cetrans isolated themselves from all outsiders.”

“Over time people forgot this war, the Cetrans, and even the White Wolf, thinking them children’s tales of merely myths. That is until roughly 100 years ago, when a small a group of Cetrans tried to re-immerse themselves in the world. Your father and mother were some of those few.”
