Chapter 1: Medvarth
My name is Third of Nightmane Forest.
There are powers and creatures in this world older than me, but I am likely the oldest woman in the realm of Andomhaim. Certainly, I am old enough to have seen how history repeats itself and how the past sometimes returns to torment the present.
That, perhaps, is the great weakness of mankind. The life of a man is short enough that the bitter lessons of the past are forgotten, and hard truths must be relearned in every generation.
And in a life as long as mine, the past returns again and again.
The battle of the Splintered Tower was once such event.
It was in the first month of the Year of Our Lord 1490, in the bitter heart of a cold winter, not long after I returned to Andomhaim from my journey to Owyllain.
I was wandering alone through the northwestern hills of the Northerland, sometimes traveling on foot, sometimes using the burning song of my blood to travel hundreds of yards in the blink of an eye.
