Myrcis's+Legend

Veronika's great grandfather, is named Yasri. No one has seen him in over 200 years. He was the holder of all of the historical documents and secrets of Mycis. The documents and the secrets were a matter of betrayal; if he told anyone of them he would have to hide or be killed. One day he was tempted into telling someone about a historical document. He knew he had done wrong and so he went into hiding and vanished for 100 years. No one ever knew where he was. Veronika inherited the duty of withholding the documents and the secrets that lie within Mycis. If she were to tell anyone- even her own family- about any of this she would be killed or she would have to run and go into hiding, just as her grandfather had. She is the only one who can look at them. If Veronika were to have any kids, they would inherit this tremendous task the day she died.

Veronika had only one person who she could trust. This person was her grandmother, Aena, who was killed by a spider that was seemingly larger than life. Aena was never seen again. Nobody sought to find her, as everyone had suspected she was dead. Veronika, despite the likelihood of this fact, still sometimes believes her beloved grandmother is still alive.

The historical documents still get looked for at times. People want to know about them and what they say so they go searching for them, not knowing that Veronika has them. Even if they knew she had it she would not give them up for anything. She would rather die than give them up. She knew how important they were. Every time Veronika thought that the documents were in danger she would put them in a secret safe in her living quarters.

Most of the people in Mycis believed that for sure that Yasri, like Aena, was dead. Nobody looked for him either. Everyone was too busy pursuing the documents.
