#dawnfall covenant

[youngritualeclipse]

The flight!

Scott, Pyro, Shubble, and Drift as a group and Graecie, Legs, Zam, and Sausage all getting books saying they will sacrifice themselves for their group and to defeat the corruption

Megii’s book saying thier power sacrificed herself for her grove of woodland animals to cure them of corruption

[itsrh0]

So, our CelestialMetals are doomed.

I transcripted everything from each of their individual books, which tell the story of their predecessors, the Dawnfall Covenant, which you can read below!

MAJOR SPOILERS FOR TFSMP BELOW CUT.

A nail in a pocket made spells stumble. A horseshoe above a door turned blessings slow and thin. That was why the royal guards wore a special iron alloy beaten with salt and ash. In small amounts, it dulled hostile mana enough to protect the throne.

IRON SOUL (Legundo)

At the academy of old, before the end of the war, learned the warning before letters: iron drinks magic.

But the Royal Wing's Mill in the volcano was forbidden. Its iron wheel spun every night, and moving iron did not slow mana. It destroyed it. Protecting the Dragon Graves…

Lysa learned this when her brother vanished near the volcano. She found his crystal, grey and empty.

Then came the one, smiling, palms shining like polished steel. "I can help," she said, and the wheel rose at his command. Across the valley, charms shattered and healing lights died.

Lysa stepped back.

A guard's iron could protect. Iron in a soul could end the world.

No wound stayed open beneath her hands. No crop failed after her prayers. No child died while her silver light still burned. People called her mercy made flesh.

IRON BELLS (Graecie)

The Mage of Endless Blessings was beloved by the kingdom.

Then the iron bells rang.

The royal guards came in, not to protect her, but to contain her. Someone had learned the truth: blessings were still mana, and mana hated being trapped.

When the first iron spear pierced the circle around him, his magic panicked.

Iron drinks.

Every blessing she had ever given returned at once.

Her bones healed faster than they broke. Her blood sealed before it could spill. Her lungs filled with light, repaired, burned, repaired again. Age fled her, then rushed back, then fled again.

A thousand saved fevers, wounds, curses, and prayers clawed through his body, each trying to "fix" her.

She could not die.

Not until his own blessings finally ran out.

Then all at once

The last sound she heard

Was a bell.

Her name was Serapha, though soldiers called her Dawn. Fire poured from her hands in ribbons of gold, and her hair blazed like morning over the battlements.

LAST SUNRISE (Sausage)

The Burning Mage of the Sun stood above the capital when the last great war reached its gates.

Where the dark armies crawled from the valley, she answered with light. Shadows screamed beneath her flames. Cursed beasts turned to ash. For seven days, no night touched the city.

Children slept because she burned.

On the eighth day, the Dark itself came, wearing a crown of smoke and hollow stars. Serapha met it alone beyond the broken walls. Her fire rose higher than towers, brighter than noon, but the darkness swallowed piece after piece of her light.

At dawn, the capital still stood.

In the field beyond it, only glass remained, warm beneath the rising sun. Serapha was gone, but every sunrise remembered her.

· · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·

The Sun Mage burned like morning. The Blessing Mage carried life in trembling hands. The Iron Mage stood apart, feared for the power that could slow mana, break mana, end mana.

THE LAST STAR (ZAM)

The Star Mage was quiet beside the others of the Dawnfall Covenant.

But when the Dark returned, it reached for them all.

Above the shattered battlefield, the Star Mage lifted both hands. Constellations bent from the heavens. Silver fire fell in rivers, forming a wall between the Dark and the Covenant.

The shadow struck once.

A star cracked in the Star Mage's chest.

It struck again.

Their body began to burn.

"Live," the Star Mage whispered.

Then they gave the sky everything.

Skin became light. Blood became stardust. Their final spell exploded outward, burning the Dark back and forcing one last breath into Sun, Blessing, and Iron.

At dawn, three survivors looked up.

A new star watched over them.

I’ve placed “???” after certain names because I’m unsure whether they refer to the Mage or to contemporaries who witnessed the Mage’s magic.

[youngritualeclipse]

At first I thought the Dawnfall Covenant was similar to the Fourfold Guard. But no, the Fourfold guard died together protecting a city from corruption.

The Dawnfold Covenant did not die together.

The Star Mage died like the Fourfold Covenant, burning herself into a supernova to save her friends and world from corruption.

Then the three had to live on without her. And it seems like they broke apart without their fourth member.

The Blessings Mage was captured by the royal guards and used, tortured for her blessing magic

The Sun Mage met the crowned Darkness on the battlefield and vanquished him, herself joining the Sunrise with this final effort

And the Iron mage continued to grow cold

At least the Fourfold Guard had the blessing of dying together as hero’s, not living as villains

[youngritualeclipse]

The Fourfold Guard (Elemental Quartet) - Scott, Pyro, Shubble, Drift

And

The Dawnfall Covenant (Celestial Metals)- Graecie, Legs, Zam, Sausage

They all sacrifice themselves for eachother and to defeat the corruption, or atleast their predecessors did

[youngritualeclipse]

tf!shubble and tf!Zam who have the powers that sacrificed themselves first, the wind mage being shot down from the sky in a final push back and the star mage bringing down the stars and burning herself and turning into a new star to save her friends and push back the shadows

[youngritualeclipse]

tf!Zam’s predecessor dying for her friends only for her friends to split up and each die alone after she died.

[youngritualeclipse]

tf!Zam’s predecessor becoming a star vs tf!Sausage’s becoming the sunrise
