THREATS OF
THE DARK EMPIRE
An unnatural threat far more powerful than the ferocious dragonkin has thwarted the continent of Almaris. I have seen visions of a great maze surrounded by darkness; it is empty and derelict, haunted by images of great horrors scrawling across its decrepit walls. This ‘Dark Empire of Evil and Greed’ seems to be a show of comedy, though I would warn my valiant Principality to be wary.
The Dark Emperor Malik first struck in our homeland, and conquested our palace. All witnessed his devious and egregious sorcery, and the darkspawn was able to escape.
I have seen visions of a pot with a countenance warped by greed, stolen by the hands of another. I have seen visions of ferocious battles of winged-men in the skies, and great portals succumbing armies into an ever-black maze. The Greed Emperor Greedmane devoured these visions whole.
They have masked their intentions behind a façade of pranks and jokes. This dark-lord has twisted the minds of descendants by offering cursed relics. I saw visions of a great, ebon-black oil lamp crashing into the ground, for it to be held by another evil hand.
Amidst the coalition that is occurring in the continent, I fear that war against the Dark Empire is paramount in securing the future of the descendants. I would ask all who devote themselves to warding off such things, ask all who care to maintain balance, to pick up arms and prepare themselves for war. They claim to have devoured the very gods, and have proven brotherly connections to Aengudaemons.
The Azdrazi threat is minute in comparison to what this may ignite. I would ask my allies to raise banners and also join in my fight against this wicked existence. Do not be fooled by their humour, for I have witnessed evil and peering upon them I see no difference
TO THE DARK EMPIRE
EVIL WILL LOSE ONCE MORE.
