::Under Construction!::
You walk at night, cloaked by darkness. Thousands of stars shimmer above you and the full moon rises, lighting your way. Tiny faeries and sprites dart around your head, singing and dancing with their usual glee.
As you continue on your way, a glimmering on the ground meets your eyes. You walk toward it silently, and realize that what you see is a small shoyru. Her scales are the palest of silver, almost white, and etched with Celtic rune markings. Her body is lightly scared from past adventures, and her eyes are dark with sorrow. She stares blankly into the night sky, too deep in thought to notice your presence.
Resting at her side is a small sword. It's hilt is onyx black, set with tiny diamonds as if to mirror that stars above. Also lying next to her is a bow and three, feather-tipped arrows.
Welcome, magiminar," she speaks, having noticed you after all. She tears her gaze from the sky and looks into your eyes. "My name is Vleensineo, but I prefer to be called Ensi. There's no need for you to look so startled. I know your name only because I'm telepathic. It's one of many powers..."
The shoyru grins at you now, the darkness lifted from her eyes. Clearly, there has been at least one sadness in her life, but she chooses not to let it show. She stands and leads you to a small glade, where she lights a fire for some extra light.
I'm the last Celtic Space shoyru, if you were wondering, magiminar. I have quite the story to tell," She smiles again, "And yes, it is quite long. Would you like to hear? Sit back then and relax, and I shall tell my tale."

In our world there are many beginings. Stories and legends that tell of 'once upon a time' when the world was different. Of kings and castles; when unicorns and dragons roamed free. But they are not all just childrens' tales. In truth, once upon a time, the world, our world was filled with these things. What I tell you now is a story of a time very long ago, when neopian life was nothing but hardship. It is the story untold: the Celtic Legacy. I tell you a tale of quests an adventure, of magic and wonder. I tell you the tale of my own existance...
For thousands of years Neopia existed, unknown of by the human race. Wild creatures, many now extinct, roamed, free to live their lives. Dragons came and went as they pleased, enjoying all the worlds without fear. There were no cities to cut into the sky. There were no cages and pounds to imprision the innocent. There were no boarders or boundaries, simply lush forests, impossibly high mountains, and calm oceans. The world was perfect; untouched by man's cruel, taming hand. But nothing good can last forever.
It was the darkest night ever known to Neopia. No light shone from above or below. Fires burned black while the stars extinguished, blotted out by thick clouds. All things evil swarmed about, enslaving animals to do their bidding. All who resisted were killed, and no one could stop them.
Meanwhile, sheltered in a tiny glade, a young shoyru guarded her egg. Her pearly skin shed a tiny bit of light, fighting the darkness. Her scales were covered with hundreds of Celtic symbols and runes, each bearing its own important message. She sighed, eyes filling with tears, for her strength was fading. Her mate, a mighty shoyru with scales of ebony and silver, was far away, fighting in the war against the dark faeries. He was a warrior, and nothing could keep him from the battlefield. The war was never supposed to last this long. He'd thought his mate was safe.
My egg, my unborn child," She whispered, stroking the smooth shell. "Your life is yet to begin, but I fear you'll never know me. The dark faeries are near, I'm sure of it. I'm not meant to live on, but you, my child, your life shall be full of many adventures. Your day of hatching is soon. Live your life, my child, now is when we part. I must lead the evils away from you, but I leave this gift, so you may always know your past."
The shoyru placed a book beside her egg, sobbing quietly. The book contained many things: drawings, small trinkets, and most importantly, writings. Within the book was the story of the Celtic Legacy, and the story of the Celtic shoyrus' adventures since the dawning of neopia. It told of the downfall of the species, and how lesser, more common breeds were replacing them. Scribbling a note to her child in the book's inside cover, the shoyru fled, calling to the dark faeries. She lead them far from her egg, but all too soon, they caught up with her. She screamed only once, then, with a grim face, she worked her magic. The dark faeires fell, not dead, but weakened by the powerful white magic. But the fallen called weakly to their sisters, and soon, they had overtaken the poor young shoyru. Triumphant, they pillaged their way through the land and made their way to the Faerie's Realm, where they attacked the queen's palace.
* * *
Darkness fell upon the land with full force; Night became eternal. It was said that the sun was never again to rise, and in the lifespans of many, it did not. For one thousand years the blackness lived, and our world fell into what was called Night Unending.

You wish to know about me? My, guest, you are a curious one. Yes, there is more to tell, even more than is said in my story, but you are one of the first to actually want to hear it *she smiles*.
My name, as you should know by now, is Vleensineo. I find it a rather strange name, and quite a mouthful, so I prefer to be called Ensi.
My favorite thing in all the world is star-gazing, though I also enjoy time spent with friends, adventuring, and practicing my magic. Even though I stay far from the Battle Dome, I keep my sword and bow near me at all times. They were awarded to me during past adventures, and I treasure them.
Often you'll catch me staring into the night sky, as I was when we met earlier. Although my mother told so much in the book of the Celtic Legacy, I always feel that there is much I'll never know. The stars? They hold these secrets that no other knows. Those same stars looked down on this land as it fell to the dark faeries. Only they can tell me the information I lack, but they are stars, and they are silent.
My owner is one called Jillian, though you may know her as esrohKKFB. I live in one of her other accounts, so named 'castlewishes.' I am the adopted daughter of Zeelan and Dragoninthefire, though I rarely see my father anymore, for his owner has left neopets.
I live a pleasant life now-a-days, far easier than what it once was. I have many great things to look forward to, many adventures yet to begin.

I have a very large family, there are simply too many of them for me to list here, for I realize that my page is quite long. I do love my aunts and uncles very much, however, so I shall at least tell you who they are! *smiles*
Wonder, Popcorn, Thejial, Phi, Tharanii, Xatuo, Lancelot, Sengi, Fairen.
But aside from my winderful aunts and uncles, there is another part of my family that I am much closer to: my parents and siblings. They I will tell about in great detail, for I hold them dear to my heart.
Zeelan is my wonderful mother. She is the last Trientalis Shoyru, and although we are not related by blood, the two of us have much in common. We both have a facination with the stars, as well as strong magic. She has taught me many things, and I love her dearly. I know my mother will always be there for me, and of that I am thankful.
Dragon is my father. He is a kind-hearted fire shoyru, although, I fear I hardly know him. When I first entered the family, he wanted nothing to do with me. But those are dark memories, and I prefer to not recall them. He's accepted me now, but when I'm around him, even now, I can't help but feel that he wishes I didn't exist...
Then there's Allinye, my eldest sister. She's no longer a child, and thinks herself much better than me for it. We've had our share of fights, and she can be a real brat sometimes, but I do love her.
Lavana is a sad young creature. She's depressed nearly all the time and has never made an effort to create friendships. Often times, she questions her own existence, and has compleately lost sight of who she is. I feel such great pity for my little sister, but she wants nothing to do with me...or anyone.
Ayo's a pretty cool guy, even though he's my little brother. We're not all that close, but I do hope we become that way, eventually. He's really nice...and really tall, by shoyru standards anyway. He also gave me Rune, my lovely pet pfish ^^.

.:.Friends.:.
In my life, I've not formed many friendships. This, however, bothers me little. One should not be judged by how many friends she has made. Although I am open to knew friendships, I cherish the friends I have with all my heart.
(pic coming coon) Fea is the most wonderful creature I've ever known, and I am quite certain that I've fallen in love with him, in fact, I've known it for a long time. I know how young we both are, but I know this love is for real. Whether or not he loves me, I may never know, but I hope he does.
Fea is the decendant of a fire god, and is studying to become the Spirit of the Fire. Together, we have embarked on many-a-quest, and however perilous our journey becomes, as long as he's there with me, I don't care what happens.
(pic coming soon) Tenshi is my best friend ^^. I met him ages ago, either from seeing him in the Beauty Contest, or seeing his doglefox Moondrops in the Petpet Spotlight, I forget which. Although he appears to be a simple, shadow shoyru, he is truly the only Celesstial shoyru, so we have much in common, especially our love for the stars!

None yet! *mutters darkly about her lazy owner* Jillian is quite the lazy thing, and she's also been having some troubles coming up with proer rune markings for me. There will be art soon though, I prmise (or rather, I hope...o.O)
