Tetrarch Vellior: |
Enlightenment is followed by sacrifice. If you |
look back on the history of our race, you will |
truly relize the truth of this teaching. When |
the Great Sorcerer Dasparion came to us a |
thousand years ago and proposed to teach us |
black magic, we did not anticipate the sacrifice |
we would have to pay in the future and |
accepted his proposal. |
When we were at war the Elves of the |
light, the black magic spells we cast wiped out |
the innocent Elves of the trees, due to |
Dasparion's malicous plots. While the Elves of |
the trees died, they cursed us with all teir |
remaining strength. As a result, our beautiful |
forest withered, our skin became scorched by |
the sun, we went blind and became the |
race of the Dark. For hundreds of years, we |
lived hidden underground. |
Now the curse of the Dark EDlves has been |
broken and we live above the ground, but we |
must not forget the high price we paid to earn |
strength. |
