Prologue

Since my youth, I have been told that I was special, a prodigy of vast potential. I came to the Yshari Sanctum, seeking what knowledge I could glean from the masters. But I found them fearful of the truth. I would learn nothing from them. But the old books, the prophecies they contained, showed me all that might come to pass, and all that I might become. Then, a star fell from the heavens- the sign that my moment had come. I will go west to Tristram to stop the darkness that the star portends... and fulfill the destiny that beckons me.
