"My name is Tanela Anokara uk Ileasaar-Uller, and I am bound to this domain as retribution.

Like so many before me, this is my punishment for falling in love. It is usually a rime for an angel to fall in love !ith a mortal. Usually be ause the offspring !as not bound to a patron like the elestial parent is and has their o!n free!ill. "ut my rime is greater be ause no offspring ould be born from our union, for my beloved is also feminine in body and spirit.

#erala Uller !as a holy !arrior of my patron. #erala served $is ause through many rusades. #he defended the !eak and slaughtered the orrupt, brought %usti e to the ondemned and vengen e to the damned. #he !as a vessel of godly might and righteousness. $o! ould I not fall in love !ith her& A mortal so learly tou hed by those up on high, so infused !ith the divine spark&

I remember !ell the day that aused our paths to interse t, our destinies to be ome ent!ined. $er order used a variant of the ritual that summons a reature of the holy planes and binds it to the divine rusader !ho has rised in appropriate rank and dedi ation. Instead of a divine animal, a humanoid of one of these !orlds is summoned to serve the enfor er. I happened to be the one hoosen for this sa red honor.

My un le told me legends of the ritual reating a stronger bond than intended !hen I !as younger. 'f it reating feelings of love and passion bet!een the t!o so bound. I believed it only legend before then, before I kne! the truth. "efore I kne! of the burning passion in my bossom for my beloved #erala. To look ba k no! and see ho! in denial I !as at the time almost brings me shame.

At first, I thought it !as %ust admiration, slo!ly building as !e gre! loser in battle. (e fought side-by-side, sending the !i ked to their demise. (e fought as one, in a !ay that others !ithout su h a onne tion !ill never kno!. I ould anti ipate her !ill, !hat she needed me to do, ho! to best satifisy her desires. #till, I never believed !hat !ould happen ne)t, or ho! it !ould hange everything.

'ne day, !hile she !as re overing from an in%ury sustained in our last battle,

she summoned. I !as surprised to have been summoned in su h an intimate setting, and even more surprised by !hat happened ne)t. As I stood there onfused by the fa t that !e !ere in her tent, and more onfused by her la k of armor, she kissed me. A deep, passionate kiss, like one !ould give to a long time lover upon seeing them. And as sho ked as I !as, I did the unspeakable - I kissed her ba k.

'nly a fool !ould not kno! !hat happened ne)t. 'ne thing lead to another, and !e made love. This !as not a lustful, debated a t. It !as t!o souls uniting in an a t of passion. I !ill not tell you the details, only that it !as not to last. (hat a fool I !as to believe that our love ould hange the edi ts of a god. Alas, it ould not.

'ne night, after being dismissed after one of our sessions together, I !as set up by those I had believed to my brothren. At the same time, others of her order did the same to her. (e !ere ea h brought before a tribunal of our peers. *a h of us !ere found guilty of having parti ipated in forbidden love. I !as for ed to !at h as they burnt her at the stake to leanse her soul for !hat they believed to be sins against their god. And then, I !as stripped of most of my po!ers and bound to this... prison, unable to die, unable to leave, unable to forget !hy I !as here.

Many years have passed, and I held this land !ell. +estroy all the threats that have risen in this ursed pla e. Alas, it is never enough. $o! many enturies must I suffer this !ay& $o! many enturies must my soul be apart of my beloved,s& I beg of you, planes!alker, put me out of my misey. -elease from my urse - a urse pla ed upon me by a mer iless god long sin e stru k lo! for his hubris. -elease me, and all the possessions I leave behind shall be yours."
