Chapter I: "The Lady of the ONE"
written by
Andrew D. Carter.

A PREVIOUS GAME

    Lord Andon Merchantson, First Chancellor of Quellburn, sits in his new place of residence. "The once mighty city of Quellburn will rise again!" thinks Andon, not really knowing why. "This first small band of new settlers is slowly growing and coping well in the cold alpine conditions. A small village is even now taking shape in what once was a place of the dead. Where once forces of the unlife roamed unchecked, a Holy and Magic City is now starting to rise once more. Why did Bishop Carlmund feel so strongly drawn to this wasted place in this god forsaken climate? Why did Carlmund have to die so tragically in battle with a mighty demon only minutes after reading the Holy Proclamation? The question which burns me to the very soul is what to do now the Bishop has gone. Do we stay, as I know He would have wanted, in this frigid hell and if so, for what reason?"
    At that moment Sir Edwood, Bishop Carlmund's First Knight, bursts into the Chancellor's office. He too feels drawn here and doesn't know why. "Haven't you heard of knocking, my good Knight!" bellows Andon, unaccustomed to such intrusions. "But, my Lord I think I have something here" protests Edwood. "This may be an answer to our dilemma. The death of our beloved Bishop may not be in vain. I have found a reference in an ancient tome which miraculously was only slightly damaged in the ransacking 200 years ago. It has survived the ravages of time but still is extremely fragile. We had to get the Rune Adepts to decipher it." "Well stop talking about it Edwood and tell me what it says!" demands Andon. "It mentions this poem:" replies the Knight.

 
    "When the Tree is done and Death inflamed; When the Two become one and the Darkness enchained
    When the Stone from on high is placed down below; And the hooves of destiny destroy all foe
She who points to All who is All
Will reveal all things to all who are all.
 
    It also mentions a garden and a vague location." "Where in this frozen hell can a garden be even contemplated to exist" responds the Chancellor curtly?" "Not above, but below, my Lord." Edwood's tone changes. "In the tunnels under this plateau. We both have 'visited them' along with the good Bishop" Edwood nervously replies. Andon's face becomes ashen white.
    The Year is 6,050 Third Era. A few months after the liberation of Quellburn.
