History of the Echo



Echo was one of the first comic relief creations that the Mage of Shadow ever gave life to. Back in the day before Cyril Darkcloud came to our lands, The Mage of Shadow had learned how to give life to all types of beings with his new status as a demi-god. Echo was created off-screen however and the first known post that contains it showed the Echo very much alive and as an independent entity. While it served the Master, it could still think on its own.

With the death of the Mage at the hands of Cyril the Windbringer, Echo was assumed to be left alone and free of the Master. That was not entirely true, for the Voice he referred to when he allied with Rhianneth was in fact the voice of the dead, and Echo was echoing that Voice's will. In other words, the Echo still loyally served its Voice. It was able to trick Rhianneth into trusting it, and in her hour of need it betrayed her and allowed Terrakis to enslave her and Brendon Grey which was the plan from the beginning.

After that chapter had ended, not too much had been said of the Echo. Its whereabouts were not entirely known except to the Mage himself. When the Mage found himself outside of the game's limits and in the land beyond Ironworks, Echo had been left behind at the Tower. Thus we continue our story...


Echo

The echo had heard a familiar voice, trailing about the tower. The resonance of the voice was too unbelievable to be true, but...the voice never lies where an echo is concerned. That voice was known to Echo.

Echo had no body, no physical make-up whatsoever, and was bound only by the limits that an echo would have, so no passing through solid walls that could not be penetrated by voice. Yet very fast was the echo in travel by the natural means of travel of sound and breath. In an instant it was upon he which it sought, and marvelled at the truth. Larry Silverfall had come home. Oh, but where was the True Master when such a thing as this occurred!!!! it was such a shame. But what was this? Why, it is Morgie! Yes, Echo knew of Morgeruat very well.

"So...the little master has come home...come home...home."

"And to what do I owe this pleasant surprise...this surprise...surprise?"
