A Tale of Valtameri's Past
~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~
Most Recent Events:
- Hearing nothing from Penthus, names her child as she wills and continues to raise him on her own. Brings him to Arkane eventually where he meets Aessian and shortly afterwards tries to beat his skull in. Manages to calm both down.
- Penthus finally makes a reappearance, years too late in Vorenth's opinion who now hates him. Is accused of causing this hatred and only becomes more upset with Pen herself.
- Ends up in a verbal fight with Aessian and in her mind has severed ties with him until he decides to do something about it.
- Returns home one night to find Penthus gushing blood from an encounter with Seraphos and Vorenth standing over him. Ends up stitching up Pen's throat and belly and Vorenth reluctantly agrees to tolerate his father's presence.
- Aessian finally speaks to her again, only resulting in her getting even more upset with him. After a good time spent arguing back and forth and mildly insulting each other, is basically told by Aessian that she had been seeing other men while seriously involved with him. Is severely insulted and becomes as close to infuriated with him as possible. When finally sees him again, he tells her to just leave if she really cares nothing. Asks if it would hurt him more if she just rode away, or remained. Is told 'rode away' and then blows him a kiss, and rides off, not answering him again.

A "Brief" Overview of Valta's History Between the Above Events
*Note: Something to keep in mind: these are a -general- summary, not exact explanations, all from memory*
- Having lived for several years perfecting her horsemanship skills, was found by Ebyn Blackwulf Taba and brought to Verminasia, the Evil City of Algoron
- Gained citizenship to Verminasia and shortly joined the Cavalry as a Private
- After a brief stint with Ebyn, becomes involved with Aessian Winterbourne. However, harshly rebuffs him after learning he had tried to get her into bed when he had promised himself to another.
- Was quickly promoted to Soldier, and then Corporal following a brush with several Paladins
- Began a relationship with Penthus Th'vykk. Also became involved with his 'brother' Khar'an Th'vykk Moonraker and his at-that-point lover Seraphos Merltanbad.
- Dedicates herself to care for and protect Penthus, though refuses his proposal of marriage.
- Turmoil within Verminasia ends up causing numerous citizens to emigrate, including Ebyn and Penthus's family, and eventually Penthus himself and Khar'an.
- Following an attack by the infamous Gerrald, was deeply injured and then arrested for 'disobeying' an order from Admiral Argg Vro'Thane by refusing to leave and subtly insulting him
- Almost died of a pierced lung in Verminasia's prison, being healed just enough to live through it to be put on trial
- Is visited by an old acquaintance in jail, one Xanik Kha'velik who wished to repay her for a slap she gave him when she first arrived in Verminasia.
- Before being put on trial, is physically taken from the prison, very much against her will, by Ebyn, now a wanted man in Verminasia. Is brought to Arkane where the pierced lung reopens due to her livid struggles. Is healed completely by Ebyn with some help from their God and Khar'an.
- Decides to never return to Verminasia, accepting citizenship in Arkane with Penthus
- The same night, performs a blood sacrifice upon herself, cutting open most of her body and leaving herself incapable of fighting until the wounds heal.
- Learns of Seraphos's attempt to kill Penthus, and swears to kill him.
- Spends some time living in Arkane, healing and remaining with Penthus. However, he eventually severes their romantic relationship, choosing to court a Shalonesti elf over her. Though one more part of her is cut down, she swears she will still protect him, even if she can never touch him again
- Having been left by the one she cared for most in her life, having abandoned the only city that held a position for her of any worth, living in a city she personally looks down upon, and something deeper, slips into a state of emptyness
- Resumes speaking with Aessian and slowly reforms a trust of him
- Despite still being deeply wounded from her sacrifice and unarmored, picks a fight with Seraphos and ends up with her elbow shattered. Did repay him with a broken nose
- Still having remained 'close' with Penthus, she is speaking to him one night when he attempts to kiss her. She resists, and he turns violent, his 'other' self having possessed him. He is eventually beaten back by Aessian and her and passes out. Khar'an, having arrived, suggests that the reason for her recent inner turmoils is that she is carrying Penthus's child. She realizes he is right, and flips the hell out, only being eased when spoken to by her Lord
- Continues her relationship with Aessian, and slowly realizes his worth, becoming closer. Still has contact with Penthus, though he becomes scarce shortly after she tells him of their child, to isolate his 'other self', she assumes
- Gerrald is defeated by members of the Kingdom of Arkane, including the Queen Launy and Ebyn. Helped minorly with healings, as she could not fight, considering her condition
- Attends the ball to celebrate such, wearing a dress for the first time in probably forever. Leaves early to meet with Seraphos, who had sword by his God not to injure her. After much preamble, they get down to business and mid-way through, she stabs him in the back. He is not happy and pummels her in the face, breaking his oath. Then he insults her further and leaves
- As her pregnancy continues, and after deeply considering past events, begins to realize her feelings for Penthus, though still present, are not as they used to be. Also realizes that this child is not just a gift from her Lord, but also a blessing, -her- baby, and begins to truly care for it. Learns of Aessian's personal strife resultant from her pregnancy, but is able, for the most part, to ease his mind
- After nine months and two weeks of doing little beyond fetching things for the Questmaster (and one brief run-in with Seraphos in a forest), has her and Penthus's son in Necrucifer's temple on Icewall - the same temple she first found her faith in. Waits to name him till she can speak with Penthus again, but wishes to call him Vorenth Turael and has him dedicated to Necrucifer
