Drassil | comment |
A spanish four-book fantasy saga written by Alexander Keyser, author of A Story Of Fire, available on Amazon.Nothing ever exciting happens in the village of Vant. The island where it stands its hidden enough that it avoids being involved in otherwordly affairs, and the greater Kingdoms barely acknowledge its existence. Furthermore, the villagers like it that way. The only exception being Reed, a young boy yearning for adventure, although the closest he ever got to it was the time he found a magical shield lost near the forest.Of course, his wish becomes true.When the dragon Skectral descends over Vant and takes the village hostage, Reed is sent by his mentor into a journey to recover the legendary Dark Star, a mysterious gem hidden by the famed hero Albion Decaheron. In this journey he will be eventually joined by Reaper Assadan, a tough sword-hunter looking for the lost sword Oblivion, and Arksinad Eel, the fugitive student of the greatest mage in the world.So far, a regular story of fantasy and dragons. Yet as the events unfold, things become complicated - strange dreams assault Reed in his journey, and the scope gradually shifts into something so great no one could ever imagine it. | |

"Get Back Here!" Boss | |
Drassil / int_10f5b375 | comment |
"Get Back Here!" Boss: What the fight against Skectral ends up amounting to, since the dragon is looking to fligh high and blast them with a torrent of flames from where they cannot reach him. Luckily, Reaper manages to stab its head with his now powered up sword before it can run. | |

Drassil / int_17122b19 | comment |
Exactly What I Aimed At: This is how Reaper and Arksinad defeat Vannael in the final book: the warrior stabs him in the back with Angurvadal. While the king believes Reaper failed to cancel his magic, Reaper’s true purpose was to touch Arksinad with the sword, releasing him from Vannael’s mind-posession spell and allowing him to counterattack with the Blood Rubi’s might. | |

Grimold, to the point Rashka in no uncertain terms tells Reaper the Four Generals will completely ignore the civil war that’s going on and come together to kill him if he attempts to bring him back to life with Necrostacia. | |

Drassil / int_39884242 | comment |
Know When to Fold Them: Basically the purpose of the Second Trial. The Chosen Ones are challenged by Buiht Caucax, a deranged demon everyone in the city fears, to singular combat. Reginald is quick to point out how pointless is to accept the challenge, and yet both Bali and Arksinad go. They both lose the trial, after Buiht immolates himself undefeated. | |

Secret Test of Character | |
Drassil / int_3f7a958b | comment |
Secret Test of Character: The Three Trials are strongly implied to be this, with the first being a test of strategy (it requires planning to be the first to cross the bridges), the second self control (as you can only lose by participating in a pointless battle), and the third one of accepting inevitability (accepting you will never be able to steal the Rubi). Three traits someone who dwells in fate must pursue. | |

Vannael gives one on the final book as Arksinad and Reaper confront him, explaining how he tried to bring back the war from centuries ago in an effort to atone for failing to save the devas of his city. | |

Dual Wielding: Yeguilex dual wields a giant hammer and a club, which is promptly lampshaded. Oblivion is an odd example in that it is described as a giant sword that splits into two thinner ones connected by a chain. It’s also completely blunt, as its more of a conduit to use magic with. Van Lyder dual-wields sabres, and so does Sulfur Houppe. | |

Drassil / int_62c1f9a9 | comment |
Evil Versus Oblivion: Certainly how Drassil sees the conflict, considering she believes the world is in a state of constant suffering she means to stop by erasing it all. Played straight furthermore with the dragons who also declare themselves and evil and wish to stop Idgray from erasing existence to continue their reign of terror. | |

Heroic Sacrifice | |
Drassil / int_6439de78 | comment |
Heroic Sacrifice: In the first book Dingir sacrifices himself to let Dorbog escape the mountain. In the second book, Scarrow dies to Skectral taking a lighting blast that was meant for Reed. In the final book, Eluid dies, holding Necrostacia -which is impalling him- still enough for Reaper to deliver a debilitating blow to the blade with Skectral’s fang. Brisafiel dies this way, having pushed Gallahard away from one of the Tree Raining Star blasts. | |

Evil Tower of Ominousness: Babel is equipped with one right on the center, where Vannael is. The reveal Babel is but a gigantic sky arc means this tower is similar to the golden ball that drives Arksinad’s own ark, which explains the concentration of magic and it being self-cleaning. | |

Set Right What Once Went Wrong: This is the reason Arksinad is revealed to be seeking Baal, god of time, to stop his own death from having ocurred. By the end of the second book, Reed and Reaper decide to follow him in an attempt to save Scarrow. In a more general way, this turns out to be both Vannael and Idgray’s motivation, as the first is trying to create a scenario like the one on which he abandoned his comrades on which he can bring them to glorious deaths, while the later wished to be reborn to be able to reject his own nihilistic views and reject Horrxikkrron’s influence. | |

Big Bad: The spot is mainly shared between Vannael and Idgray, with the first being the main cause of everyone woes and the events that unfold but the later ultimately proving to be the greater threat to the whole universe. | |

Getting Smilies Painted on Your Soul | |
Drassil / int_98412467 | comment |
Getting Smilies Painted on Your Soul: Discussed by Ventristen when speaking of Albion’s [3] tendencies. Since love can make a soul influence another, it was logical to assume one could reverse the process and use your soul aura to make another person love you, which Albion abused to gather up followers. | |

The Corruption | |
Drassil / int_cf168867 | comment |
The Corruption: The Legendary Swords are shown to have a corrupting influence on whoever wields them, with Oblivion having turned Osald into a [1] abomination of six wings and stone-like skin. Thousands of years wielding Necrostacia turned Grimold into a blackened skeleton-like monster covered in the runes the sword put on Reaper’s arm. It is implied Idgray was starting to become this while wielding Drassil, as Drassil roots are described to be going inside his body. Then he finally turns into a complete monster, the Champion of Inexistence, to serve as the final battle of the story. | |
