[QUOTE="Jemal, post: 4789077, member: 9026"] A common log cabin nestled in the forest, a hundred feet from a lake. It is peaceful, secluded, and relaxing. Had you not allready known who awaited you here, it would have seemed like nothing more than it's appearance suggested. As each of you arrived, however, the old man appeared to greet you loudly, announcing you and introducing you to those who were allready there. [B]"Adamas the Sylvan Myth" "Arineil Silverwing, Heavenly Daughter" "Chevik Quintillion, Son of the Knowledge Seeker." "Damien, the 12th Raven" "Oroz Brook, who Sails the Winds." "Sabastian the Scheemer" "Sigil, Once and Future Queen of Summer" "Silivrenniel, The Sunkeeper" "Tagret Artalen, Of the River's Strength"[/B] He informed each of you that your bloodline was being called upon in the land's time of need, and that he would guide you on your path. The new moon, he kept telling you. On the eve of the new moon your companions would be assembled, and then he would seek his vision. Now around the fire you sit, awaiting the old man's vision. For two hours he sits there silently, floating above the flames, the smoke swirling around him, the stillness broken only by the dancing of the magical flames. [B]"I see Darkness."[/B] His voice rings out into the silence [B]"A great darkness spreads across a once proud nation. It fell long ago, before the memories of the present time.
