<br /><br />
Geraine watched the battle, loathing them all.
<br /><br />
The Imperator could not imagine his own defeat.
<br /><br />
The Hopeslayer's wrath was empty at its core.
<br /><br />
And Asheron &hellip; His nobility filled Geraine's heart with hatred.
<br /><br />
None of them would triump. He would undo them all.

In the end, the Firstborn did not find the book.
<br /><br />
It found them.
<br /><br />
To Geraine, it revealed the secrets he desired &ndash;
<br /><br />
long-lost Glyphs that gave power over the Menhir stones, the key to Dereth's magic.
<br /><br />
Armed with this lore, Geraine stole the Menhir and sealed them within the Vaults.
<br /><br />
Without them, the magic had nothing to contain its power.
<br /><br />
The Great Ones knew nothing of the doom awaiting them.
<br /><br />
