[QUOTE="La Bete, post: 4527150, member: 6079"] [b]Signs and Portents[/b] The Prophecy of House Aellrinnath, as recounted by Karl il-Tanith ter-Aellrinnath. [I]I dreamed. I dreamed of a land of Ice and Steel. I saw the Old King, his heart twisted and poisoned by lies. I saw his son seduced and destroyed by the promise of knowledge long kept hidden. I saw his daughter try and draw the poison from her father, only to fail and Fall. I saw him die at the hands of heroes, and his vengeance from beyond the grave destroy them and defile their memory. . I dreamed. I dreamed of the UnBorn King. I saw his acolytes everywhere. In the shadows they dwell, and in the shadows of mens hearts. I saw him gnawing at the roots of the World Tree, poisoning it with his foul touch. I saw him whispering terrible secrets into the ears of rulers, tales of things that could not, must not be. I saw him defiling the race of Men, weakening them ahead of the horrors to come. . I dreamed. I dreamed of the Last Warrior. I saw his battles against the UnBorn King’s acolytes. I saw his victories, his banner burning bright in the darkness. I saw him gather the free peoples to fight the UnBorn King, to purge the darkness that had taken root in their realm. I saw him die, betrayed, lost and alone. . I dreamed. I dreamed of the Last Days of Man. I saw men accepting the Gift from the UnBorn King. I saw Man, that strange, foolish, and noble race, become Other. I saw the Other spread like the plague they once were, and will be again, destroying those that would not, or could not, become Other. I saw the mortal world burn at their hands, the corpses piled high to please their King, the land polluted and destroyed beyond repair. . I dreamed. I dreamed of the Tearing of the Veil. I saw the legions of the Other pour into the the Feywild. I saw that blessed, glorious realm die, drowned in blood and filth. I saw our people slain, or worse, subsumed and Damned. I saw the last of our people flee through the Gate of Ages, never to return. I dreamed. I dreamed, and I wish, how I wish, I had never woken. For upon waking I knew the dream was real. .[/I] [/QUOTE]
