Trodain is the home to | Trodain is the home to [[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|The Hero]], [[Trode|King Trode]], and [[Princess Medea]] with the former serving as a low-ranking guard. The kingdom was prosperous before it's fall, maintaining good relations with the other lands and especially so with the kingdom of [[Argonia]] in the southwest. The royal family's lineage stretched back centuries, being tasked by a great sage to guard a foreboding scepter against those who would exploit it. This stewardship was broken when the failed magician Dhoulmagus infiltrated the castle as a travelling jester meaning to entertain the sovereignty. | ||
Being rewarded for his parlor tricks with a night in the castle, Dhoulmagus slipped into the chamber that sealed the scepter and, after a bit of banter with Trode and Medea after the two tried to reason with him, removed it from it's bindings. Transforming the king and princess into a monster and mare respectively to test out it's power, the madman then unleashed the full force of the staff in the center of the castle. This sent writhing tendrils of thorny vines coursing through the building, turning anything inside into a hideous plant-hybrid that was hence frozen in time. Trode and Medea were spared due to standing within the magic circle as the curse took hold, and the lone survivor beyond them was but a lowly guard mysteriously spared. The trio would set out to avenge themselves and undo the curse at any cost. | Being rewarded for his parlor tricks with a night in the castle, Dhoulmagus slipped into the chamber that sealed the scepter and, after a bit of banter with Trode and Medea after the two tried to reason with him, removed it from it's bindings.
