I have picked up a strange book on my library. This book was written by Gunad, the scribe of the blue fort. This man have never left his big fortress but he speaks about things like he was a great explorer.... I copy you an extract of this book describing the famous great green.

- Jarius -

The Great Green is a vast forest that surrounding Elinerune, the capital of the Elves. The Great Green is the land of myths and fantasy. People say its trees are so tall that no one can see their tops. Some claim to have seen the big Shamalocks, the talking trees, and some others profess that Adwij herself comes to the forest to converse with the Elves. One thing is certain: the realm of Ezechion, in the southern part of the forest, is no longer safe. The prince Tyne-rune lost his mind and a curse fell on the trees: they withered and lost their beautiful colours. The trees of Ezechion cried and called for help, but the Elves left them and fled that dismal realm.",

Let me talk you today about the black mages.
As you know, the third age was the one where magic was discovered by Weren and his fellowship. Guided by an Adwij prophet the fellowship reached Shael, the source of magic, in the center of Pohe Fakesys. They learn to use it carefully with very strict rules imposed by the prophet and Weren founded the guild of magic. But, as you know, great power encourage jealousy, and one person of the fellowship leave the guild to found his own. This new kind of mages defy the ban of the prophet and experiment new powerfull spell, like the most forbidden: "the control of spirit". This misused power of Shael had corrupted their spirits (1).

I have no time to develop here the second major event of the third age: the war of mages, the defeat of Weren and the reign of the black sorcerer. I refer the reader to the very meaningful manuscrit (2) written by Weren before he dead. All know how this reign hopefully end after a century of slavery: the legend of this little girl who defeat the black king without any sword... I will not discuss here this legend but I will rather talk you about a fact, very less known, the existence of the hidden quarter of black mages .

The end of the shady reign brought also the roll out of magic adepts. People was suspicious about magic and was afraid some over-proud mage take the power once again. Guild of Adwij had forbidden magic in their enclosure and the guild of mages was marginalized after the death of Weren. Black mages were severely prosecuted. And the time have passed... with the fourth age, our age, the olden fears have disappeared, the realm is prosperous and the progress have new names: commercial exchange and alchemy. Nobody suspect any black mages are still in life and very influent in the underground of our nice buildings. Nevertheless, they prepare their revival. You don't believe me ? I can describe you precisely how is organized their hidden quarter with fourth parts, one for experimental laboratory of new kind of spells. And it's not new, it's known from dozen of years ! All this is well referenced in a map found by Adwij judges during the black mages trial (3). Where is locate this quarter ? Nobody know. And who care's ? The fourth age is the age of mindlessness, May Adwij protect us !

(1) We know today from the recently found manuscripts of second age that this black power came from the last breath of Kisanth himself, the black dragon had corrupted the source at the end of the "scarlet battle".
(2) "The age of magic" by Weren, library of Barimbar (original), libraries of Topaz, Forloz & Gadio (copies).
(3) "Third Judgment report of black mages society: unclosed survey" by council of the wise, guild of guardian, Topaz.

Is there a more mysterious person than the prophet Zeta? Nobody has seen him, but everyone know his word. The author of the two prophecies, the prophecy of the third and the fourth ages, the one who eared the goddess. When people have observed whatever he predicted for the third age came true, the prophecies for our current age was considered very seriously. The rare copies of the prophecy was robbed or destroyed and the last one remaining in the temple of Barimbar is under my responsibility and I'm so proud of such a privilege. I'm not authorized to give you here the content of this famous book, but let me give you some insight...

We have all seen, the past season, this green moon, which appeared in the sky. It's not a secret that the prophecy of fourth age has predicted the apparition of this moon and say it's the beginning of a new era. What is less known is the prophecy predict the apparition of five more moons, and the next will be a white one. The moons are connected to us. More precisely moons are connected to some of us who have a special gift. It's not clear which event provoke the apparition of a moon, is it a birth or a death of a special person? Are they coming when something is created or broken? What is surprising is, before a moon arrive, a name appear on the book, the prophecy is still writing our future.... I can't give you more information on the incredible book of the prophet Zeta, but let say a last thing: our destiny is highly related to these moons and we will live very sadly hours. Stay strong, there is always a hope...

A new name have been written on the book of Zeta this morning. It is the third name written from the beginning of the fourth age. Without betraying secrets I can tell you this is the name of a dwarf from the country of Borak. This name announce the apparition of a third moon, the brown moon. According to the prophecy, with each moon is associated a special gift. The green moon is linked to the gift of vision, the gift to see through the night and the fog but also through the lie and the truth. The white moon gives the healing ability. The ability to care for body and mind. Regarding the brown moon, it is the moon of creation. She would give the power to mold materials into very strong tools. These special powers do not come by themselves. They are reserved for the chosen ones whose name is written in the book and they require a special relic to be activated. Everything suggests that the activation of these powers is not desirable. If we are not up to it, a great gift can turn into a curse. Thus, rumors say that the gift of vision has been perverted to deceive the spirits. This misfortune could be linked to the curse of the forest of Ezechion south of "The Great Green". I can tell you because it is now too late for him, the first name in the book was that of Tyne rune, the last descendant of the Ebelias.
