Dear Florensians,
A long-forgotten tale has recently come to light. It was passed down through the generations and told in hushed voices, for fear it could be overheard, since it is a dark and mysterious tale indeed.
Now it came to pass that a wise bard passed through Florensia. He claimed to have extremely important news. One night, many curious adventurer gathered around a bonfire so the bard could tell them of this ancient tale, for he was one of the few who knew about it. He lowered his voice and spoke in a hushed whisper:
"Once there was a dark wizard who was feared everywhere. He was the descendant of an ancient clan that did not want to bow before the laws of Florensia. This brought about a war between the magicians and the humans which resulted in the magicians being wiped out, since they were not powerful enough to face Florensia's army of skilled warriors. Peace returned and everything seemed well.
However, hidden in the shadows, one boy survived, with magical abilities of his own. The rage and grief of losing his family enhanced his powers and he vowed to one day take revenge on the humans who had destroyed his clan. Legend has it that he entered a pact with a demon to gain forbidden black magic. His soul was consumed by the dark force of the demon and fed with anger. The mage resurrected his own hateful army from the bare ground which had remained of his country after the war.
Now he will stop at nothing to destroy Florensia and its inhabitants once and for all."
After the bard had finished his chilling tale, the adventurers looked at each other across the bonfire in sudden fear. Which of them would dare stand against such pure evil?
