Underthwyn – Ancient Fey Dragon

Description

In the Age of Creation, Underthwyn was an Emerald Dragon who had sworn her fealty to Renmaeth. Though when Mindoriel swayed many dragons to her cause with promises of eternal life, Underthwyn joined them. During the time of reconciliation, she did not feel that simply apologising to her creator was enough. She prostrated herself before Renmaeth, asking to be reborn as a spirit of the forest, as those like Gwynevel and Melwyn. So the dragon was given her wish, killed and born again from the roots and leaves of the forest, like a blossoming rose rising from the ash of a charred battlefield.

She thus dedicated her life existing beneath the hollow, basking it in rich streams and jungles as was Renmaeth’s will. When Renmaeth fell into her eternal slumber in the First Era, Underthwyn aided the falling goddess as she fell through Tharador in her sleep, helping the Ten’gwael entwine her in the four pillars.As Renmaeth’s Dream became a world of its own, the Hollow then became the between world, a halfway point between Tharador and Renmaeth’s Dream.

So Underthwyn found new purpose even in the absence of her deity, aiming to keep the darkness that was growing in the Hollow contained. Though she knew she could never prove a formidable force against Rokarthion by herself, Fey Spirits and other creatures could aid her in restoring charred battlefields and blocking entrances to the surface. She promised Rokarthion that if he attempted to delve deeper into Renmaeth’s Dream, he would awaken her from her slumber, creating catastrophe that would see his realm destroyed, a bluff he so far has believed. But now with his ambitions above, she has begun to worry once more, and is willing to be an ally to any who might aim to stop him.
