When Denze first heard her voice, it was when Denz crossed the deep fog seperating the cursed kingdom from the rest of the world. Long had myths told of the fog, which no one crossed in or out of. One man crossed out, and told tales of such depravity and hellishness we refused to believe. But he also told stories of power, massive power, which drew even some of the most cynical into his tale. And Denz' father believed. He left with the first. Denz' brother believed. He left soon after. When Denz became a man, he did not believe, but Denz went despite this fact. His house had become a ruin without leadership and Denz had no where else to go.
Denz went for rertribution at first, to demand of his family why they abandoned his mother and himself to the cruels machinations of the other nobles who stole their lands. But halfway through the fog, he heard her voice and saw her creature the first gate through which he stepped. Her voice didn't change his mood, just the land beyond.
He learned of the curse that demons had laid upon the men of the kingdom, and the others who traversed the fog. The demons stole a man's soul, and only left screaming madness. Even as he stepped through the gate an naked wretch of a man charged him out the darkness, trying to regain a semblance of what had been taken from him. And he fought that wretch, and others.
Then there was the demon that killed him. But his soul was not stolen, for he heard her voice again and it beckoned stronger than the demon's cruel will. Denz was summoned, and so he came.
In her own. wretched way, she was beautful. No one knew who she was, she was simply called the maiden. She had the power to improve and clarify the souls of those around her, though it took more and more souls to do so. If you killed the demons, you could have their souls, and so Denz did. Denz no longer wanted revenge. he wanted to survive, to get away from this cursed kingdom and to take the maiden with him.
But, though the maiden was blind, she saw all, and as Denz became stronger she disappeared. Denz started hunting.
He has been hunting since.
