| − | I introduce myself, Cheng Lai'Suki, translator and restorer of this book. A few years ago, when my friend Vao and I were crossing the [[Witherings]] on our way to [[Aeden Aqueous]], a lucky fall led us to discover a hideout tucked away in an air pocket between two thick roots. The place was very roughly furnished with shelves, a desk and a small bed. Several objects were also strewn about the floor, including many books. Among these, one particularly intrigued me: ''The Sacred War'', by Belenor Nebius. It was an old and battered collection, written in the ancient [[Zorai]] dialect. We also found a dagger with a finely chiseled black blade, and a set of seven dice, with between four and twenty sides that were not numbered, but engraved with fine intersecting lines. | + | I introduce myself, Cheng Lai'Suki, translator and restorer of this book.

For the next few months, I studied the book. It told a story from another time. It was a story set in the [[Old Lands]] more than a hundred years ago, after the kitins' [[Great Swarming]] had ravaged them and forced the people who lived there to flee to the lands we now occupy. This story was the story of the Black Mask, who in the wake of the devastation and his encounter with the Great Genitor, gathered survivors and began the Sacred War against the [[Karavan]] and its minions. | For the next few months, I studied the book.
