Alexandria, beloved of the Dead

 “Cold and alone... so cold...” These words have slain more people than any single sword could have on Kridxen.  How could a Druidess of Tarhil become a rival goddess?  Alexandria’s mortal story is told during the End of warmth holiday to remind all of us that we should treat each other with respect and to be mindful to remind Alpha and all the gods and goddesses of our needs.
 About 3000 years ago, when Alexandria was still alive There was a thriving druid community in Oritoshi called the Platinum Leaf society.  She was trained by her beloved father while she was there.  Her mother was a skilled fisherwoman and always saved the catch of the day for Alexandria
 Alexandria was just becoming a recognized name in the Platinum leaf society when she was called in a dream by Tarhil herself to journey all the way to the south pole.  She was also told not to fear the elements for they would not harm her in any way.  Lost in the sea of time it is unknown if Tarhil was mis-interpreted or it mihgt have been that Alexandria was never contacted in the first place.  In any event she decided to follow through with the challenge presented to her.  She took a small group of fellow druids on a long journey south.  This was before the continent of Callor was discovered.  They were greeted with quite a shock to find the massive landscape.  The actual that she lanced in was Araque.  Being a person of faith she decided to do the right thing and convert the heathens to worship Tarhil.  After seting up a small church and leaving one of her companions to maintain the place she continued her challenge south, even after the people tried their best to talk some sense into her.  Alexandria wouldn’t hear of it.  The trek was quite a usual one until the small band got to the point of where she could see the giant glacier that is known now as the Ice sheet.  It was at that place where they stumbled quite accidentally upon a number of Dire Bears.  She lost her entire company in that battle and was forced to run away.  Further and further south these abominations hunted the stricken woman.  She thought that she would loose them when she got to a snow covered area, the bears had other intentions in mind though.  Amazingly after 3 days in sub-zero temperatures without food or sleep her body simply couldn’t hold out anymore.  She knelt and fell to the ground a mile away from her goal... Her hand still outstreached towards the pole as the Dire bears drug her prostrated form back and started their meal.
