Across the Veil by Queen Maab

As faintly as the echos of the wind, the whispers of the lost called out to me across time and space, reaching my inner sanctum. The laments of troubled souls calling to the one they once called their Goddess. Peering deeply into the crystals, I looked upon this land of sosaria, and realized with great distress that these mortals had forgotten the old ways. Beset by greed, and self serving intrests, they had cast the old gods aside, as well as the higher virtues, in favor of gold and personal power. I recall an unholy roar escaping my lips as I looked upon this, enraged I gathered my powers unto me and crossed the dimensional boundries into this world of those who would forget. Forming flesh upon my arival, I sought a place to rebuild my strength. A place of many woodlands, where the veil to my realm would be at its thinest. Alas this place I did find, the mortals call this place Yew, city of justice. How apropriate that it is in the name of justice that I have come to this place, Justice for the old ways, Justice for we the old Gods. So within Yew I slowly build my power, walknig amongst the mortals as one of them. Soon shall they realize that which travels beside them, soon, they shall remember the power of the old ways, and tremble in its wake. I have found a few worthy of sparing, old mages of power and wisdom. One commonly refered to as the Town Drunk of Yew, and Sandoz, both men of wisdom, and foresight. These two shall I spare. For truly do thier hearts beat in rythm to the callings of the fae. I have forseen great deeds from these two worldly men of age. Alas my vision shall be upon them, guiding them towards the greatness before them. I caution those who would read this volume, consider well your mortality before challenging those who would follow the ways of old, lest the powers of the ancient ways turn against thee, and end your pathetic mortality.
