You had lived much of your life in the seclusion of the village, far from the eyes of people who would judge you simply for your apperance and curse the ground you walked on. Your idyllic life came to an end, but you'd soon learn that you arent the only person this had happened to. The many of people unaccounted for seemed to be a common feature of these frontier attacks. Travelling on the road and discussing events on your way to the regional capital of Hewwahl you learned from many traders that villages and villagers were seemingly "vanishing" into thin air. Though vanish is a bit of a exaggeration as you remember the smell of burning wood from you village. Still this detail lines up with some of the stories you were hearing. Just what was happening?
You'd get your answer soon enough however when you see a baggage train of refugees just outside a major checkpoint overlooking a bridge. A village barely a day's travel from Hewwahl (Hue-Wall) was completely razed, but thanks to the timely intervention of some adventurers many of the villagers managed to escape rather than disappearing into the unknown. The story now being spread around is the end of days is upon them.
More level-headed villagers though talk about about demons, fire and brimstone suddenly coming to meet them. One particular adventurer noted that when the attack started lines of energy rose out of the ground, leylines they thought, and then the leylines were split open and demons poured out of them. This is the best information you can get at least right now. At the checkpoint you were barely let through, but worse yet, with reports of demon incursions happening more and more people look at you with suspicion. You were let through the checkpoint but not without a priest of the goddess determining you werent a "demonic spy" or whatever.
The final stretch of your journey for answers leads you to the massive rainbow colored walls of Hewwahl. Large concentric circles of seemingly natural crystal fortifications jut out of the ground, the surrounding landscape dotted with farms and outposts, you wouldnt think demons had suddenly invaded within the well kept and orderly palatial farms of the capital. Though this stop the scene from feeling dreadful as you see lines of refugees trying to enter through the many different portcullises of the Crystal Walls. Guards inspect every carriage and person, and it takes you well until sunset before you get to set into the city proper. Home to a little over 100,000 people, you're regarded with some suspicion, but most seem to busy with their own problems to really go out of their way to say anything about your demonborn heritage. All thats left is for you to figure out what you want to do.. your once dreamed upon adventure is now starting, but you werent sent off with a smile and wave, instead fleeing your burnt out home for answers. Theres an adventurers guild thats of certainty in a city this large, but there is also the Demon's Quarters a perjorative name for the slum area mostly occupied by demonborn like yourself who have for a long time been shunned by other humankind.
