Folktale of Aethon and Renee

Folktale of Aethon's and Renee's relationship and how the Golden Volcano came to be

Fable

Once upon a time, Aethon once lived atop Gaelen's highest mountain, the Bronze Peak, while Renee lived at its foot. Being the proud and haughty Guardian she was, Aethon took delight in bullying Renee, antagonizing her for her odd appearance, her inability to fly, and her small size, among other things. Aggravated by her rival's bullying, the chimera finally set a trap that caused the mountain to erupt in flames, creating the first volcano. Terrified by the sudden flow of lava, Aethon fled and allowed the chimera to take the mountain as her own – which then became the Golden Volcano – while Aethon found a new peak on the other side of the continent to call home. From then on, Aethon hasn’t harassed Renee since.
