Tarlov Chronicles VI

THE PROPHECY OF ELORINE OF KURNISTAN IN ZEPHYR

This information was conveyed to Aran Elenaro by the bearer, a Spectral Lich who was permitted by His Majesty to abide and depart Quentari under Royal Protection in appreciation for her long journey to Padash in October 597, knowing that the hands of all people of good intention would be turned against her.

-Squire Elowyth Tarraninon, Sage of Galenor

Greetings to the Children of the East, We are Fashtan of the Kurnistani People, Keepers of the Magics and Lore and Seekers of Knowledge. An ancient terror is rising, as well you know. We have known of your castings of the Ancient Magics and efforts to discover the nature of this threat and in this, we, the Fashtan offer you these words, our vision and our warning.

We have also known of the being that threatens us now. We have seen the ancient battle won by the Elven King, Father of The Great Elven Mage of Earth and Sky and know well the threat that he imprisoned. We have watched over the years the changes in the magics as predicted in the stars and seen the prison weaken and begin to collapse. Those of us who see beyond the veil of time to the future see a land of death and pestilence to a time when there are no more living when even the Drakes of the far reaches lament their fate before being cast to oblivion. We have seen the battle lines drawn and redrawn in your lands and armies fall until your Eastern Nations are no more and the Great Imperium and Lesser Realms crumble to dust in the wake of this terror. We have seen the elements consumed and corrupted and the arrogance of each turn to terror and the land itself rising and falling in a great final battle.

We have also seen the defeat of this threat, the Destroyer. Those who see beyond the veils speak of the future as a cloth blown in the breeze, ever-changing shape and form but bound by many threads and many possibilities. We have seen a great gathering when those who would lead their people have come to fight this threat of destruction. We have seen the tokens of power and the shadowy figures that would stand in the Circle of Destiny.

We have seen one of the Land, who wields the power of the land as a weapon. A being of the past who has come from a vale of magic and whose nature is kept from us by forces as vast as the Drakes. The Land will fashion a new prison for the Destroyer, the Circle of Destiny.

We have seen the witnesses come from all parts of your Eastern Lands to stand and mark the boundaries of the Circle of Destiny. Each bringing a power and strength to weave the magics of the prison with the Ancient Magics. Great Leaders of all races and many lands who gather to give magic and aid to the land and the magics of hope. We have seen the end of this Destroyer and a prison that cannot be destroyed by the cycles of time and further to a time of peace in your lands.

We know this, the Destroyer, waits and watches but not in slumber. He reaches out into other realms and is exerting his will over them. The elements have felt his touch and even now he seeks to control their power. He will need to be stopped and his conquests in these places halted. He is striking at the heart of the great Elven Nation and seeking to corrupt from within. He is already in motion in these plans and the element of Dream has felt his touch.

We send E'Lorine, The Fashtan of Tribe Kujan with these words. E'Lorine will tell you of our efforts to find the Destroyer in the places of the Elements. The key to these places being The Lands of the Gorbei within the Great Nation of the Elves that is where E'Lorine will seek you. If The Destroyer cannot be repelled from the places of the elements, then the Circle cannot be cast. Be warned, the Destroyer also seeks these lands of the Gorbei and their secrets.
