Prologue:
The chantry teaches us that it is the hubris of men that brought the darkspawn into our world. The mages ad sought to usurp Heaven, but instead destroyed it. They were cast out, twisted and cursed by their own corruption. They became a blight upon the lands, unstoppable and relenless.
The Dwarven kingdoms were the first to fall, and from there the darkspwn drove at us again and again, until we neared annihilation....
....Until the Grey Wardens came.
Men and women from every rank. Warriors and mages, babarians and kings. The Grey Wardens sacrificed every ting to stem the tide of darkness...and prevailed.
It has been four centuries since that victory, and we have kept our vigil. We have watched and waited for the darkspawn to return, but those wo once called us heroes have forgotten.
We are few now, and our warnings have been ignored for too long. It may even be too late, for I have seen with my own eyes what lies on the hoizon...
Maker help us all....
