Chapter 4

The dreams began on Mazriel's 16th Birthday. He was three years into his
studies at the invoker guild above the clouds. At the time Mazriel burned
with a single minded ambition to become the greatest sorcerer in the city
(Arial City) as well as the city's most wealthy inhabitant. He originally
strove to be admired and respected as well as rich and powerful.

The dreams of torture and suffering continued until one night, on the winter
solstice, a misty visauge of a devil appeared woke Mazriel at midnight. He
had come at the bidding of his clairvoyent superior, whom he did not name. It
had been foreseen in the Hells that Mazriel would age into great power and
his services thus were sought. A bargain was struck and the devil went away.
Mazriel would live and would dedicate himself to finding ways for the devils
to surface once more while his magic and mind were both empowered and
influenced by the devils magic.

Mazriel has since moved to Hamsah Mu'tazz, a city near where the gates of
Hell were once rumored to be open to begin his work and gather personal power
in the Dark Prince's name.
