Learn more about the Legends of Krogdalo's children. 

Krogdalo's Children	Legend
Arduanatt	Krogdalo, the spirit of the wind and earth, had three children: Arduanatt, Diné, and Doom. The eldest was Arduanatt, the one who resembled the wind. With the two wings attached to its body, Arduanatt could freely soar and glide in the air. Arduanatt one day met and befriended Secrua, daughter of the sun. Unlike Secrua, who was just and passionate like the sun, Arduanatt's soul was free-roaming. This caused a lot of quarrels between them. Eventually Arduanatt's wings melted down after a big fight, causing him to fall to the ground. To this day, Kamasylvians believe that after ages of hiding from Secrua, the fallen Arduanatt will soar again among millions of ordinary horses running on the ground.
Diné	Diné, the forest's most beloved one, was the second offspring among the three children of Krogdalo. With her fearsome, golden horn, she protected the woods of Kamasylvia from their invaders.  Being the protector of the forest, she was loved and worshipped by the forest, and at the same time, alongside her another sister, Arduanatt, was the only one who could go close to Doom. One day, a small snake came to see Diné. With tears in its eyes, the snake looked like it was in desperate need of help and said there was a huge group of crows filling up the skies black, leading everyone to death. Fooled by the snake, Diné hurriedly strode towards the misty forest. However, the forest seemed peaceful as usual. Only later did she realize that the snake was gone and came back to her mother's trace, but by then Doom had already left the forest. The thought that she had failed to protect her own family made her feel despair. She soon realized that she needed to find Doom at once. Leaving her duty of protecting the woods behind, Diné left the forest for the desert. Since that day, whenever they found a golden mirage from beyond the forest, the people of Kamasylvia would believe that Diné was coming back to the arms of the woods once again from the arid desert.
Doom	Doom, the master of flames, was the youngest among the three children of Krogdalo. Every step she made created searing blaze that burnt everything. Unlike Arduanatt of the wind, who flew around the skies freely, or Diné of the earth, forest's most beloved one, Doom was not free from the burden of her own flame. Apart from her sisters, no one would dare come close to Doom. Because of this, she suffered from loneliness for a long time.  There was someone who had been eyeing Doom and her agony. It was Ibedor, the serpent protector of the Mirror of the Rift. Take a good look at your true self. At the end of the arid desert, there lies a burning hell gate. It is there, where you shall meet a person. Weep no more over your bitter loneliness, for the one you will meet will understand you the way you are. With this companion, you shall be able to run freely across the lands with your blazing inferno. Convinced by Ibedor's words, Doom left her mother for the very first time. According to the records, Doom was last seen on a stormy day,  disappearing beyond a roaring sandstorm of the desert.
