Your dream suddenly takes on a sharper hue. The colors melt away, but the focus intensifies, and before you - deep in a blasted landscape - stands the broken, bloody image of a bald priest, supported by nothing but a staff. He is looking about him wildly until he seems to catch a glimpse of you, and beyond your power, you find yourself closing the distance to this priest rapidly. Your senses are on edge.

"Greetings from the Hidden Path, fellow Follower. I bear grave tidings. My name is Brother Eto. We do not have long.

"The Enemy has found and located the General. The time is not right for the Portents to come to pass. You must protect her, at all costs, and pay attention to the signs.

"Darkstar is unknown to the Followers, but if this agent is the force that brings you together, you must work with this agent, form the Covenant, and pay close attention to your Path from here on out. My last days of research in the living lands led me to a startling discovery; the Broken Sword may not be a piece of metal at all ... but a "weapon" once wielded against evil that has since been broken and is only now being reforged. It might not be such a leap of faith to assume that your Covenant might be such a Broken Sword. I was not able to prove more.

"There is more, but my time grows pressing. Beware the Mortals without Souls. They are preparing to unleash a grave attack on the land. Beware, too, the Exiled of Drak'thul. These wayward foes have ever guarded the Portents, and have been looking for their own leader of Prophecy. The Gloinador. Gloinador is an old - human - translated - too late!"

With those last words, the wraith of Brother Eto vanishes into a swirling mist. Unholy cries begin to overwhelm you, and you suddenly awaken into a cold sweat, clenching your sheets in unknown terror ...

Consadine awoke suddenly in the Lakeshire inn and tavern. He could barely remember the dream, all he could focus on was the rapid beating of his heart and pounding in his ears. He reached for the mace handle near the bed and prayed aloud, "Light be with me". After mere moments it was over, the fear passed over him like a dark cloud giving way to spring light.

He knew that something dire was indeed happening, as the Light had illuminated the paths of others and lead them all together: first to the covenant, then to the general. Lyssira and Brenry quickly came to the paladins mind. He had parted ways with the mighty gnome a day past and regretted having left his company. At the same time he felt shame at not having had the skill to follow his general. He humbly had to accept a seperate task to stay out of her way as the prophecy unfolded.

He had initially planned to leave at first light to meet Lyssira in Stormwind, but there was no time to wait. The catacombs had been a safe and private place for them to speak, and she had recently sent courier to him urgently requesting to meet again. He got out of the bed and donned his armor. Throwing his pack across his back and his mace over his shoulder he left the inn. With the light of the moon illuminating his path, he began the trek to Stormwind. He prayed the entire way that he was not too late.

Aedrean bolted up from the chair he'd been sitting in at the Pig and Whistle. He must've fallen asleep while waiting for Lyssira to come. Then he remembered the dream. Someone named Eto, and he mentioned Lyssira. Next he saw her he'd have to tell her that too. Seemed that he was doing alot of the telling nowadays, used to be that he'd do alot of the finding out of things. He sighed and walked to the mailbox, he had a letter to write.
