The privilege of Goblyns on other peoples is that their memory is eternal.
Bound to Sharras, themselves bound to Magyön, they cannot really ignore their ancestry, because it is contained in rocks and millennium trees, in the air and in the water, in dry lands as on the fertile areas.
Without being an immediate, complete and clear knowledge, there is still many Sharras or Goblyn Venerables to testify of what is the Genesis of their people...
It is necessary to go back to early times of the exodus of the Rakelins, the First-Bloods, under the commandement of Great Ancients.
While Arkady arrived hardly within sight of what would later be called Lands of Sef, the Four already walked the future Lands of Saïhan, as guardians of the natural sanctuary abounding in life that were these lands.
They were called the Uncreated, although Arkady had for their sister the name of "Elf ", upon her arrival in these parts of the country.
They had nothing to do with what would be, eons later, elvish nations, and were more almost divine, secret and silent Powers, travelling through trees, earth and water, like anyone would walk on loose ground.
They were in communion with the Magyön, and when Trivurges and other maleficients ones accumulated in the distant North and everywhere else, they knew their sanctuary in danger.
Anticipating the misfortune which came down, later, on their sister Isayel, They created Sharras of the nothingness, and rocked them tenderly in the streams of allmighty Magyön. They taught them certain Secrets of Harmony, and the Dances of Forges, entrusting them the priesthood of the Sylve shepherds and the wild guarding of this sanctuary of Life.
To the first Queens among them, they taught the song of Magyön, this stream of inviolable words containing all mysteries of the Creation.
They carried out the Ceremony of Vocalization in its presence, for her first time, and for their last one.
Diving entirely into Magyön, she asked her question, and pulled out of It these two unique syllables: Saïhan.
So these lands received their name, while the Four went away to watch over their sister in agony, while Arkady disappeared, and while in the North, Trivurges gathered, again, to break out one day on all these parts of the country...
And Sharras made their work, and gave birth by whole waves on Saïhan.
They guarded the will of the Uncreated, and led with ardour and wisdom the chant of the Magyön in its most diverse expressions, in fauna and exotic springing flora over wild lands.
And in the North, in the immense loose and labyrinthic stones which formed a natural barrier enclosing Lands of Saïhan, they created Goblyns...
Goblyns, warriors and poets, soldiers of the Magyön, sentinels of eternity, the glance for ever turned northward. Goblyns were created "to defend", for ever, weapons in hand, courage in soul, and determination at heart.
And as far as goblyn memory goes, they never failed their task.
They pushed away the first and the second Trivurge invasion, when sons of Arkady had to gathered on the Moloïb Wall and paid it a more heavy toll.
They overcame the Big Invasion of Amecysthes, when they had to pursue their opponent under every rock, and in every stone of Saïhan.
They defeated the Uncountable Troops during the War of Dragonflies, and survived all its fallout.
And they are always there, through all ages of Doyran, tireless and zealous guards, prodigy of war arts and indomitable opponents.
Always, Sharras stayed up the Nature and the Magyön.
Always, Goblyns repelled invasions and made Life and Harmony reign as masters over Saïhan.
So continued their History, while Gobelyns prospered and multiplied on all Lands of Saïhan, and while Sharras pursued their arcanic and enigmatic rites in depths of ancestral forests, waiting for the hypothetical return of their Creators, demigoddesses guiding fates of this world...
