'''In the Dark'''
<br /><br />
Aun Tanua was a great hero. Perhaps the greatest hero who ever walked the lands of Dereth.
<br /><br />
But there is one power beyond the reach of all heroes. The power to turn back time.
<br /><br />
The power to undo crimes that have been committed. To snatch back lived that were taken too soon.
<br /><br />
When Aun Tanua knew himself to be a murderer, his heart was shattered. There was no vengeance left for him to take. But, still, there was honor. There was courage. And there was sacrifice.
<br /><br />
For one shining moment, Aun Tanua gave himself to the Animae of the Tumeroks. The Great Spirits flowed through him and their truth struck down Wharu's lie.
<br /><br />
Wharu is an impostor. He is no Great Spirit. He is merely a thing of hunger and darkness, dressed in the tattered robes of deception.
<br /><br />
Aun Tanua lies broken. His battle is over. But the thing-Wharu, the deceiver, the fraud, still lingers.
