Issue 04: The Prophecy of the Ancients

Thank you for choosing a product from the Daracoss Tourism Agency (a company of the Five Dragons Corporation).

The Prophecy of the Ancients has its origins far in the past. It is written in the language of the ancients, which is no longer common in Daracoss. The language is also called Old-Daracoss. According to the legend, the prophecy was left as a warning to the folks and heralds the terrible decline of our world.

In the great cathedral of Sorlacom the words of the ancients were carved in obsidian. However, large parts of this inscription were lost or destroyed when the hunters attacked the city. The last writings with the translations fell victim to the subsequent, devastating fire. The Priests of the Five were therefore unable to preserve this knowledge. There is only a damaged text and the fading memories.

Original copy from the Sorlacom-Cathedral of the obsidian wall (in Old-Daracoss):

This part of the prophecy does not exist

Ter dur forded trosos armat gain dot tar maach gadas

vort dot arament anter dar gorsht sorath farta et

ane misak tarkas onarte sane prake,

liir ter dur porat an fert.

Dot cors an pararte kohm barka et sane shaed argan on dot terres carstak.

This part of the prophecy does not exist

Et fa tand mirit anter dur sintha an gardat, dot garad an fert.

Gerter irtnes mirit...

This part of the prophecy does not exist

Dar lat an olta kohm dot desit desiter.

Anter dur sor an gardat desiter mar onter dot destit dor Daracoss.

Translated copy of the prophecy from the library:

This part of the prophecy does not exist

After the call to arms against those who have fallen out of favor

the succession will end under the bleeding sun.

A false prophet extends his hand

greedy for the powers of the five.

The shackles of the fallen will burst and release its shadow on the world.

This part of the prophecy does not exist

And so they are under the sign of the guardians, the fellows of the five.

Together they conquer ...

In the light of the guards, he decides the fate of Daracoss.

However, due to the missing information and the lost parts, nobody can say with certainty whether these translations are correct.

Many efforts have been made to complete this text, but these efforts have always ended in a dead end.

Most of the time this prophecy already existed, most thought it was just a silly fairy tale. A story that you can tell your children. Only the Priests of the Five waited patiently for the signs that were announced.

It took many generations before the events finally rolled over. The Hunter-Wars ended with the days of the Bleeding Sun and the line of the Fellows of the Five disappeared from the world.

The priests are now strained by the next sign. What will the Guardians do? Will their fellows return? Those brave fighters who act on their behalf and have proven themselves worthy of their strength.
