Kangmiwu
The Ice King
Kangmiwu is known to the inhabitants of EYRTH as Khuno, The God of Snowstorms.
As the Ice King walks the two month journey to the Chasm his path takes him along the tops of the Paltharian Mountains and each step brings the winter season to the lower hills and plains.
At the Chasm, Kangmiwu holds the Salt Key aloft in his now over-sized hand and utters the word that releases a single grain of salt.
For years each grain falling into the depths of the Chasm has made the Salt Key smaller.
Although he does not know it as he turns to make the 2 month journey back to his keep, this will be the last time he will have to walk north. It will not however, be the last winter brought upon EYRTH.
In three months, winter will return to the eastern coast and Khuno will earn his name.
Lucy Katiyana
The Frost Queen
Banished from her village for practicing, of all things. Wychkraft. Her own child.
Kelly. She cast a spell to simply protect her daughter from the cold.
The tribal leaders cast Lucy out into the dark blizzard. No one could last the night in the Ice King's path. No had before. She was brought to a place in the mountains Kangmiwu would soon cross . Her daughter would be sold to the slavers.
She cursed their cruelty. A warning.
"as cold as your own hearts."
Kangmiwu found the young woman on his path and before he was about to kill her she offered a bargain that brought warmth back to the the Ice Kings heart. A deal was made.
The next winter Katiyana joined her new husband on his walk.
Near the village which had left her to die she sent an army of Ice Goblins to slaughter the entire village except one.
"Leave one alive to tell this tale of their cruelty, your victory and my wrath."
Katiyana soon received word that her goblins had indeed destroyed the village and left one alive, a young girl. A girl who then killed the goblin king before turning her sword upon the rest of the goblin army. She left one goblin alive to return a message to the queen.
"Tell my mother that they are all dead. That her vengeance upon them is complete. Be warned for the last words you may speak will be that my vengeance upon her has just begun."
