What is Elric?
1.
Elric of Melniboné, albino prince of ruins, spectacular, tormented. Wielder of the Black Sword, Stormbringer. Eternal Champion. Last ruler of the Bright Empire of Melniboné. Twice betrayed - first by his cousin Yyrkoon, and second by his sentient sword, which killed his only love, the princess Cymoril, in the final fall of Imrryr the Beautiful, the Dreaming City.
Some consider Elric of Melniboné to be the greatest anti-hero in all of science fiction and fantasy.
Although his saga is over, author Michael Moorcock occasionally writes interludes in the tale of Elric from time to time.
