Chapter 1: Lady Suneth's prophecy
The party gathers to discuss Lady Suneth's prophecy. Lady Suneth, a Kerberite from House Kerberoth, has received intelligence from "the black" and composed a prophecy. The prophecy speaks of a shadowed realm, a wraith of dread, and a noble count freed from the serpent's mark. It mentions three agents, a wise matron, and a veiled seer. The party speculates on the meaning, noting they have three months to act.
Lord Tirwh, ruler of House Kerberoth, joins the discussion. He expresses concern about the situation in the Land of Nod and the potential world-threatening nature of the events.
People and Places
Prophesy
In the shadowed realm where mortal woe and spectral might entwine,
A tale of dark and light unfolds in the world’s bleakest design.
Where ruthless fiends and holy men in fate’s grand stage do play,
The next three moons will spin their threads in destiny’s display.
A wraith of dread with burning eyes, in torment’s guise arrayed,
By darkened lord’s command doth seek the hearts of men betrayed.
In lands where sorrow’s seeds are sown, where fear doth reign supreme,
The fiend with cruel intent shall weave a harrowing dream.
In the murky depths of witchcraft’s art, a matron wise and bold,
Foretold by agents three of yore, the tale of terror told.
She sent forth those with secret aims, where fiendish shadows creep,
To pierce the veil of devil’s schemes, where mortal souls do weep.
Yet far within the twilight’s grasp, a noble count remains,
Whose life, though freed from serpent’s mark, bears past’s enduring chains.
This count, with quest of balance bound, through hidden paths shall tread,
May thwart the devil’s ruthless hand while soul debt he does shed.
A seer, veiled in mystic shroud, with visions deep and true,
Hath seen an urgent embassy, a path of fate to view.
This mission bears a humble quest to seek the noble’s aid,
To glean what truths the count might hold, in the murk where shadows played.
In distant coasts where merchants plot, and schemes of power weave,
An enterprising schemer stands, with papal ties to cleave.
His cunning gaze on shifting tides, with alliances entwined,
May steer the course of coming trials, with threads of fate aligned.
Thus, as the lunar cycles turn and shadows deepen still,
The forces of the dark and light will clash with potent will.
With every stride and hidden move, their fates entwine and twist,
In the grand design of cosmic dance where none may long resist.
And so shall fate unroll its scroll, with twists both sharp and sly,
Till ends are met and truths are known beneath the cosmic eye.
In this tumultuous sphere of war, where mortal and divine,
Will weave the strands of destiny, by cunning or design.
