"Well, we came here looking for information on the 'Gates of Chaos' as a friend called it. We believe it may have something to do with the attacks going on recently... and we were told you'd know more."

"Hmmm, that is serious. Don't you think you'd like to rest longer.....No, you need to here it." He take as a deep breath, "I'll give you gist, as I don't ahve it all memorized.

 

"At the begining of time, there was a single entity, it was somethign simaler to a mortal mind. It beleived, in that it had such a strong beleif, that there was some sort of world out there, one was created, as the humans, and other mortals began to evolve they began to wonder. How were we made, thier minds couldn't comprend the fact of beleif, yet in their ignoence they applied those very princiables. They beleived a group of divine beings, the Gods, created everything. Even before the first apperence of the mortal realm the god of Void was created of the nothingness, then wiht teh creation of our realm, the god og Being.

 

"There are the Higher Order, constantly at war, despite the fact they know that if the balence of power tips to either one the world will end. As they warred the moratls developed their gods, The Elemental gods, the ones we know today, Fire, Ice, Earth, Air, Death, Creation. From them spawned the Lower Order, gods from everthing else that exists. The gods are constantly at war, for the Elemetals it is Death, Ice, Earth agasinst Creation, Fire, Air; the Lesser gods constantly switch sides. Neither is good or evil, only part of the balance. The void god has seemingly found a way to tip the balence in his favor; the Gates of Chaos."

 

He rises and fills a few cups wiht mildy spiced wine. Handing them out he continues.

 

"You see, time and existance is most easly explained by calling it a cloth. Simply Being is the threads, with the Elemental and lesser gods being colored threads, affecting the image of the cloth but not the physical state. Void is the space between the threads. THe gates of Chaos are much like scissors, they cut the thread and make the Void stronger."

 

He trails off thinking.

 

"There is a key to the gates, You see the gates are easy enough to find, you've likely past through them. There is an arc on teh east isde of Yileth, teh capital, that arch is the gate. But you need the kay to make it harmful. Lets see, waht was it called....."

Elbras blinks, slightly confused at it all.

 

"... Interesting story, thank you... so, we've established the gates of chaos are a bad thing, but uh, why would they start burning down villages? To look for this 'key'?"

"Well, all I can think of is that it is painful being a minion of Chaos, laws of the universe falling apart around you and all. It is very likely either a mad mans delight to burn, kill and rape. Or it is a tortured souls escape from pain. But in either case the way to stop the burnings is to find the Key. I'd suggest killing the Leader of those soldiors but if it is indead a follower of Chaos... They may be hard to kill. As I said Laws unravel around them, things like, when your dead you can't kill or move anymore, Chaos can bend that law if it fits the need."

"Hmm... interesting, so what you're saying is, if we killed them, they could just re-animate and keep fighting?... That doesn't sound too good."

 

Elbras ponders for a minute.

 

"Well, either way, we have to try, if it'll stop all this killing... what do we need to do?"

"Exactly, Chaos magic bends or breaks rules of our universe. To find the key, that will be harder. It's last known loction ahs already been searched. My only thought is to seek the council of a God. You'll likly have the best of luck with a Light temple. But personaly I don't like the creator. He's too...flashy. But they will very likly know the most. You can Find a large Temple in Yileth, its the High Temple, where the Creators physical form is can be found. Now, I'll take a look to make sure it is the Stone of Ethendral that you need. Was there anything else you needed?"
