A scythe that harvests life and returns it to Nature. Legend has it that once upon a time, a great druid warrior named Viken wielded the scythe to defeat an undead army. This forced them into the arms of Nature and allowed the Elven Forest to grow even larger. No one knows how much of this is true and how much is an exaggeration, but there is no doubt that the scythe holds immense power. Ryan looked forward to the day when he could wield it.

It did not take long for his wish to be fulfilled. A monster bird nested in the Mother Tree and slowly became a problem in the Elven Forest. The monster bird traveled far and wide through the Elven Forest, disturbing the members of the forest. Eventually, it attacked a group of druid priests on their way to the Mother Tree. When Ryan heard the news, he roared and raised his scythe. The priests tried to stop him, but he would not listen.

Climbing up the Mother Tree to the nest of the monster bird, he fought it day and night for ten days. Ryan’s scythe was the first to break. However, Ryan’s determination was not deterred. He eventually broke the monster bird’s sharp beak and its menacing claws. The great Druid Warrior Ryan had won. However, his glorious victory created another problem for the forest. With the apex predator gone, the ecological balance of the forest began to collapse. Once he realized what he had done, Ryan surrendered his title of ‘Viken’. He then picked up a broken scythe and used it as a staff. To understand the ways of Nature, and never make the same mistake again.
