She
served Lady Kyria and the temple of Fate for many years,
until one day, the Mistress of Chaos entered the land. It
was a dark day, as the Mistress of Chaos plotted to
poison all of Terris. Demonstrating her great love for
the land, Shilana bravely drank the entire vial of
poison; sacrificing herself for the benefit of all within
Terris. When the events were learned, the citizens
of Terris protested and went to great lengths to search
out an antidote.
The
Thief, Tarelna, managed to discover it through great
peril to herself, and quickly raced it back to the dying
Shilana. Deori, in his wisdom, viewed this great loving
self-sacrifice and elevated Shilana to become the first
Immortal of Love. Her first act as an Immortal was to
reward the bravery of Tarelna and appoint her Heroine of
Love.
Tarelna
was Love's first Heroine, however the temple has had the
honor of having many other dedicated Heroes and Heroines,
including Amathar, Chantel, Fabio, Leafeater, Robyn,
Syrai and Torretan.
