[QUOTE="Phaezen, post: 4945568, member: 42839"] [b]Following Darkness Challenge III[/b] The dwarves have a legend In the time when Moradin forged the first dwarves from his mountain home, he set them upon the world in caves deep below the surface. He provided them light and knowledge of mining and crafting, but also with a warning. Around the dwarven homes lived darkness, watching and waiting, jealous of the light and skills of the dwarves. Moradin warned them of the darkness in its many forms and guises. The darkness that steals life and light; the darkness that watches learning, growing; the darkness that lurks, waiting for the unwary and the darkness that hungers, which traps and devours the foolish dwarf who would wander too far from the safety of the clan. The darkness watched the new dwarven nations, resenting their growth and industry, turning the creatures that lived in it against the dwarves, feeding them the knowledge it stole, whispering lies about the cities and the nature of their inhabitants. For the darkness resented these new comers and the favour they carried of the Allfather. But, part of the darkness was intrigued, watching a small clan and their mastery of the their surroundings. It grew fond of them, until creatures corrupted by the jealous darkness descended on the clan brutally attacking wiping them out. The curious darkness grew angry and followed the raiders back to their lair. It covered the rampaging goblinoids, devouring them leaving no trace. Dwarven traders who found the remains of the clan and tracked the raiders back to the empty caves they called home grew afraid. They started speaking of a new darkness, one that watched over dwarves and took revenge on any who would harm an innocent, tracking the wrongdoers back to their homes and exacting terrible vengeance. They gave this new darkness a terrible name, one which strikes fear into the heart of any dwarf who hears it [COLOR=Sienna][I]Got Dammaz Dum[/I][/COLOR]. Translated into common it is known as [COLOR=Gray]The[/COLOR] [COLOR=Gray]Darkness that Follows.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
