Title: The Veil, Volume One
Author: Fyrgen, Mage
Penned by Fyrgen, Adept of the Ancient Illuminated
Seers of the Moonstone
Copied from the original
by Gabriel, Scribe of Yew
I’ve lost count of the
years that have passed
since the eruption that
sealed the Abyss, although
I have felt every passing
moment in the depths of
my soul. I have seen the
end of my own life, and
the day is drawing ever
closer. Ever since our
departure my thoughts
have rested solely on the
events that transpired in
the nightmarish pit, and I

Fortunately, he did not realize that this is a near impossible feat for any mortal mage. But still, he succeeded in some degree – Tyball rose once more, although little more than a shadow of his former self. But he is growing stronger day by day, and his followers growing more numerous. The Seers are all but extinct, and many of the Britannian scholars who might have known his name are now long dead.
I shall now move on to another related matter. For those who have not studied the history of the Abyss, there was a mage by the name of Vilus. In his living days he was not only the most brilliant mage in the whole of the Abyss apart from Tyball himself, but he was also quite insane, barely able to utter a coherent sentence. As I recall, he met his death on a lower level of the Abyss during a magical experiment of some ki----
