Empyrean Legends and Prophecies

The Fivefold Curse
Also known as the curse of Eibhiill, this is the curse placed upon the line of Alaidain by Sarvien, the last king of Dericost. In the moments before his death, Sarvien uttered this prophecy from the Book of Eibhil. . The curse outlines The Sendings of Darkness. As we were sent by the Darkness The Darkness shall send again An avenging star A light to bring darkness The Darkness shall send then A knowledge: A power to bring destruction For Alaidain's blood shall be The death of the people And then Darkness shall send yet again And once more, and the Darkness shall win -- Alaidain's Gem

Heretical Prophecy
This prophecy has no official name, and is labeled heretical as Asheron wrote it would be such in the eyes of the Nali. It was passed down to Asheron from his mother. As darkness draws about light And all falls to ruin so shall come; the star. The darkness will impart its wisdom, And the Light shall lose its way. And blackness shall fall across the land, And the Light will be hidden above. Then shall the light gain its wisdom And Champion. For Alaidain's blood shall be The savior of the people And then Darkness shall send again, and be beaten And so it will send again, and be beaten. -- Prophecies

Early Empyrean Legend
This tale also has no official name. This tale was told to Asheron by Adja, who said that it has been passed from the earliest generations of Empyrean. This tale was not taught by the Northern Church, and was also considered heresy. There was but Light and Darkness; And then Auberean. Darkness sought to seed Auberean And climbed within the world As Light created guardians, And sent them to defend. Guardians made war Against the darkness, And the darkness drew forth defenders From the land To stand against the light, And the Light called lesser children To bear itself against Darkness. And then the war was won. So the Darkness lay Still and silent But ne'er beaten by the bringers of Light And so it called its children. Not to make new war, But to seed the soil with new treachery. And the Darkness reached out And brought forth other worlds, So too the Light. E'er Auberean at the heart Where ever shall rest the war. -- Prophecies

Falatacot, on the Old Ones
Those which can eternal lie / In sleep, in dream / Should never die. -- Aerfalle's Letter

When soon the stars align, and dim from darkness time, then shall those who names may not be spoken, birth anew the childer, and be again awoken. -- Campaign Journal
