The Ring of Erathor

Daemon, Qin of Fire, loved Selene, Qin of the Solitude, and cared for her, but as he was a being of Fire, and her of the Land, he could never get near her without scorching her. So he set to work creating a relic, a wedding ring, that she could wear that would protect her from his swelter. Unfortunately, being a Qin of Fire, he lacked the ability to create such an item. Instead, he created a ring which grants the wearer immunity to all physical harm... aside from Fire.

The legend continues. It says that while his presence was pain for Selene, she loved him dearly and refused to stay away from him. She went to him one night, and in spite of the heat and pain, created a child with him, Erathor.

When Daemon realized what the effects of their night together had done to her, he was mortified. His once beautiful Selene was covered in burns and blisters. Ashamed, he sent his wife away, exiled from Karcion.

It was there, in the Western region of Karcion that Selene, Qin of Solitude, gave birth to her only son. And when he was born, the loneliness of his mother and the heat of his father combined and were released into the world. At the spot where he was born the land became hot, dry, and devoid of life. When he was old enough to wear his father's ring, Selene gave it to him for safekeeping.

And thus, the Ring of Erathor, son of Daemon, and Qin of the Desert became legend. But the story does not end there...
