Pivotal in Elf history,
The StrathNaver
episodes stage an about-
face in Elf history.
Flight can no longer be
the response to The
Enemy’s wrath and
mayhem. The apparent answer to a prophecy rouses their courage. With new hope, they are finally ready to stand and fight. Arm in arm with their old foes, the Dwarf Nations and the Clans of Alba, they forge instruments of war
and the conflict begins.
There were Elves here once. They
were the Grays of the mountains and the
Naver Valley. There was a great war,
then, when those Grays were attacked by
forces of darkness. The hills of the
StrathNaver region had forests. It
was a great, old-growth-wood that ran
for hundreds of miles undisturbed by
shovel and ax. There were Gunns to the
west and MacDonalds to the north. In
that time the families gathered in support
of their neighbors, the Gray Elves and
darkness was driven away for a while.
His desperate passion for
Lurelei, thwarted by the
evil inflicted on her by the
old Enemy of the Elves
drives Angus to realities
unseen before, by
humans. His initiation into
the Ancient Order of the
Brit Gar-Nonsum, the
Elven secret society
changes him forever. The
Elves think he is the one
who will save them.
Watching over him from
childhood, they observe the signs unfolding.
Critical in that victory were the actions of Angus MacKay, or MacAodh as his
family was known in the 8th century.
Since the war was in part, supernatural, very special, weapons were required for
victory. They were instruments of the
mind and the spirit. To construct them,
Angus had to discover the Gate Keeper
of those powers. Beyond the Gate
Keeper, the ultimate victory for Angus
had to be the discovery of the Key to
their uses.
a wee
bit south of the Naver,
among those who know,
is a famed Elf Haven. In
its foundation lie
forbidden chambers used
by the Grays in their day
of need against the
Enemy. Its hidden doors
and secrets are even
today protected by
innuendo, the cleverest of
the Elven tools. It's
believed today that two
chambers exist, but it's
thought that one contains
the treasures of old King
Brude and the other
contains elements of the
Black Death. No one
knows which is which so
neither is opened and the
Havens are still safe.
A young man in love with a woman who
is in love with him will move Heaven and
Earth to consummate that love. Angus
meets her, first in his dreams. She
is a Gray from the City of the Vision sent
to the Valley of the Naver for safety.
Encroachments from the Enemy
made it dangerous enough that her family
feared for her safety and for their own.
Lurelei is attacked and separated from
Angus by a spiritual poison that none
believe can be cured. Angus is not to be
deterred by the word, "impossible." With
the help of many, he finds the cure in the
form of three gifts. Learning to use them
requires that he find the Key.
Sometimes we find that a great Key is
really a new understanding of an old idea.
A new perspective can unlock the mind.
