Prologue
The Time of Chaos had long left us behind. Yet many still were fascinated by its mysteries and legends. It was a time of darkness, a time of evil, a time for heroes to rise above the mortals and make legends of themselves. The Time of Chaos was a time when evil was abroad, and the very gates of Hell was unbarred and demonic forces awake in the footsteps of evil.
The gods, who were once rulers of known universe, was forced to walk the mortal plane and became mortal themselves. This unknown evil with immense power the gods cannot even defeat. One such god, Bhaal, the god of murder, foresaw his own destruction. He impregnated the mortal women seeds of his immortality. The gods too, foresaw their downfall and in their vision they saw a hero who will rise from the lowest, to vanquish this evil and be remembered by all in Faerun.
Indeed the prophecy came true; a hero rose up and vanquished the unknown evil. His name was forgotten in the corridors of time. The wise prophet Alaundo prophesized that this evil will reincarnate again and the forgotten hero will also be reborn into the lineage of a forgotten god. Few in Faerun heeded the prophecy but those who do patiently waited and prepared themselves for the coming of evil. Once the barren and war tortured Amn was now a country of arts and trade. Amongst the golden age of Amn the Wise saw The Shadow of Amn as the evil slowly but steadily approached The Forgotten Realms.
