==The Light's Beacon is Lit Year 840==
As shadowy agents began to infiltrate and corrupt the once-bright nation of Cornia, suspicion and distrust ran rampant among the people. Anyone could be the enemy, and neighbors were taking this witch-hunt as an excuse to remove those they did not favor. It was a dark time, one in need of a Light.

Kainan Paravel, a solider in Cornia's army, prayed for some way to bring peace back to the nation, for the power to reveal the truth without fault and serve justice without corruption. The god Tirian, the Lightbringer, answered his call, granting him the powers of the Light. Kainan could see the darkness in the souls of men, and where his Light shone no shadows could hide the truth. He could discern lies with near-perfect accuracy, and by his hands the courts were made level once again.

Saint Paravel the Just, as he became known, restored a sort of balance to Cornia, establishing a cathedral to his patron deity which he named Light's Beacon. Some even asked to aid in Kainan's mission, and they too were granted the powers of the Light. 

Saint Paravel died in battle against a monstrous entity which the shaken survivors only referred to as "The Darkness", within an ancient cairn called Saering's Rest. It is unknown as to whether or not Paravel actually defeated the creature, though to this day the cairn is sealed with symbols of the Light. A small fraction of Tirianites watch over the cairn, but they give the place a wide berth.
