The Dies Luxfrang

It all started with Xinoehp. He was a young luxsprite; at only sixty-four years of age, he was the youngest noble to ever sit on the King's Council. This unique situation came about due to his parents waiting until their early nine hundreds to have a child, right before their millenium of life elapsed. 

This backstory gives context to his actions that fateful day. In pursuit of power free of limitations, he inadvertently opened a crack in the defenses of the luxsprite's energy network. The very heart of the empire was left exposed to the creatures of the Void.

One in particular took notice. He had been a human, once, dissatisfied with the luxsprite's reign. He had found a spirit of darkness, a mighty one, and sought to gain its power. But before he could use his newfound power to topple the luxsprites, he was caught and exiled to the Void. For years he had waited for an opportunity to take his revenge... and Xinoehp had just handed it to him.

In the blink of an eye,  the Witherlord struck. The crystal that powered the luxsprites' empire was shattered. The luxsprites were thrown into disarray as an army of withergeists swarmed into the now-vulnerable reality, destroying anything and everything they encountered. Within hours, the unprepared leaders of the luxsprites had been broken and turned by the Witherlord, becoming his new most powerful liutenants. By the end of the day, every living luxsprite shared their fate.

All save for one. Xinoehp, the last luxsprite, got what he wanted; he became the first Narrator. Unfortunately, as his powers shattered, so did his memories. As more mortals took up the shattered power of the luxsprites, he faded into the background- just another Narrator among hundreds.
