He of dreaming has returned to the waking world once more. The love of another forced into his heart to end his eternal slumber. His adopted sister Illyana, the Goddess Danü Rèalta, (though she did not ascend to that form until long after they forged their unbreakable bond to each other) seemed to be lost... After she withdrew from the mortal plane and magic had left it... there was peace for a time. The ArchAngel of Elysium and her Enforcer, the multidimensional druid of life known as Malcolm De'Asandir, forged a pact. The ancient Gangrel had seen and lived countless lifetimes... It was time for rest. It was agreed that he would only be awoke from his dream under the most dire of circumstance. With the mother of creation preocupied with personal matters and a crisis within another dimension, it was decided to dispatch a Silent Knight from the Starfire Paladins to awaken the Enforcer to ensure that the balence upon the mortal plane within the layer of the multiverse that our story takes place was maintained. That knight's name was Teagan. She sacrificed her blood and the life bond that she had to Elysium to make his heart whole again. His heart was bound to an amulet a few centuries before he was infused with Jaeden's gifts. After it was agreed that he would take a very long nap, Jaeden split his heart in two, draining from him the two things that were necessary to sustain him in the waking world. The blood and love of another.
His dream was something more however, his spirit wandered the multiverse, drinking in the essence of all creation... He kept a close vigil over those he cherished most, offering a very faint blessing here and there from beyond when one would least expect it. But then things would change after a milenia or so, all was not right upon his favored mortal plane, one he held very dear to him had lost her way, and in turn those in her wake were changing, the balence of power was shifting and chaos was beginning to flourish. He knew that he would return to the waking world once more.
Upon completion of the rejoining ritual to make his heart whole again and restore his conciousness, his suspicions proved to be all too true as Teagan formed a bond that could only be broken by either destroying the pair, or the amulet that now held both their living essances. Through her blood he inherited all that she knew, the deep sadness within her caused by the loss of her husband and daughter, though she would feel that all of this was instantly stripped from her and the weight of the world virtualy lifted from her shoulders through the ritual that bound her to him.
And now that ancient Enforcer stood within the sanctuary of the Goddess Danü Rèalta after calling her out, she had to either find herself again before her spirit set the earth ablaze, or be contained. That was his mission. The shifting sands of time were ticking for heaven's Judgement had decended amongst them all.
