Chapter 2

Today I was visited by a spirit that offered me words that
lightened my heart, but also left me a bit confused. It seems
that the dark horrors I witnessed were part of a waking dream.
Though it seemed so real!
Yet I'm told that even though I watched unicorns slain before
my very eyes, it was party of a vision of the great evil that
can be visited upon the purehearted.

It was at the divine forge of Lord Aarn that this spirit made
itself known to me. While I am hopeful to hear that the unicorns
survived, I grow concerned of the evil that this portends. Does
this warn me to grow greater in power? So I am not impotent to
stop great evil when it comes upon myself or others pure of heart?

The spirit left these words and let reality be known, but left
me in a quandry. The unicorns are the model I follow, pure of heart
and cherishing of the forests, but perhaps now I must seek
the Greater Gods of Light to give me further power against evil. It seems
that the unicorns do not posess the power to further me further
along my divine path. If it is so, I shall keep remember that
the Way of the Unicorn is the compass to which I hold, yet perhaps
the Pantheon of Light will guide me to the power to fight Great Evil.

Indeed, the benevolent spirit left me with these words, a hint perhaps:

"'The dwarven lord whose shrine you stand before, as well as the Phoenix
who soars the bright skies, and the Mother of the Moon all hold
protection over us, my child'"
