Folk remember the dark times, when destruction roamed the land.
<br /><br />
They think of war&hellip; death&hellip; torment.
<br /><br />
They blame those of us who walk in the shadow, call us evil.
<br /><br />
But we are not.
<br /><br />
We were deceived by the one who ruled us. To understand us, you must first understand him.
<br /><br />
Hopeslayer, they call him. Bael'Zharon, the fallen lord.
<br /><br />
He craved power, and gave himself to chaos.
<br /><br />
His obsession nearly destroyed the world.
<br /><br />
The Shadow Kingdom's path runs along the sword's edge.
<br /><br />
On One side, untold strength.
<br /><br />
On the other&hellip; madness.
<br /><br />
The Hopeslayer strayed &ndash; and fell.
<br /><br />
Look on his face, and swear:
<br /><br />
I will not follow.
