Lord Muran Oterak was a nobleman from a long line of noblemen, who had many years earlier bucked the arranged marriage that would have united the House of Oterak with that of Benvik and ended a generations old feud between their very similar peoples. Instead, he had fallen in love with and married a pretty thaumaturge named Yora. She was a sorceress, but had not used her powers on the young lordling. After all, hers was the magic of the green. All magic was devoted to a color, of course, just as each person is aligned to either the dark or the light, and green was creation, a versatile and powerful talent that had been passed down from parent to child since the beginnings of the magical in the days before the coming of the Oracle. Creation of love might have been possible but this was not how Yora did things.

No Shadows Great Appear
