There are many tales as to how the Zemeri came to be and many variations of those tales. The most commonly accepted one however is that of the Wanderer and the Moon's Daughter. It is said that the moon was a most jealous mother, hiding her away from the rest of the world in her shadow. The Wanderer amongst his long journeys heard the sobbing of the moon's daughter and called out to the moon that he might behold her.
However, the moon refused and in an attempt to rid herself of the Wanderer, she challenged him to catch one of her daughter's tears knowing that any which fell from the great height which she and her daughter dwelt would surely freeze and slay any mere mortal.
The Wanderer accepted this challenge and so for a year and a day tried his outmost to catch one of the falling tears. Every time however he was either too late to catch the falling tear or blasted away by the heat as it fell to the ground. Not all was lost though, as the moon's daughter took notice of the Wanderer and made up her own mind to meet him.
To do so she mixed a potion which when quaffed would transform a single tear to glittering cold crystal. Thus on the eve of a year and a day from when the challenge was issued the Wanderer chased down another tear and this time was neither too late nor blasted by the intense heat of the falling tear. Upon catching it however, the tear sliced deeply into his hands, spilling his blood upon the ground. It is said that the moon herself was agape with awe at the beauty of the single bloodstained tear and further with wonder as the first Zemeri arose from the blending of the blood of the Wanderer, the ground below and the radiance of the tear.
Thus it is that the Zemeri are known as Scions of the Shadowy Wanderer, the moonlight and very earth itself.
