- 0:02Magic molded our civilization for generations.
- 0:07The Root Sisters watched over Talam, assisted by the rituals
- 0:11we shared. But our ways were not without
- 0:15risk. Our thirst for knowledge tore
- 0:18the world's fabric, unleashing the cataclysm of Yeldrin.
- 0:25Azra the Conqueror raised his legions, outlawing magic and
- 0:31persecuting Wizards. A merciless war started,
- 0:36spanning many years on every realm.
- 0:41Now, only a few of us remain. We are all that stands against
- 0:47Azra's tyranny, keeping the flame of hope burning for
- 0:53revenge. For how long will this cold sun
- 0:57cast its shadow upon us? Wake up.
- 1:15The prisoner's convoy is almost here.
- 1:18It is time. Let's save Mother.
- 1:27We should cut through the mountain.
- 1:31We hadn't planned for so many soldiers, So be it.
- 2:35Belongs In order will set reinforcement
- 2:57soon. It won't matter if we reach
- 3:01mother before then. Our comrades are in position.
- 3:15Make their sacrifice count. I can see mother make haste.
- 3:32My children, so there is still hope.
- 3:36These shackles are feeding on my essence.
- 3:38Break them. Bind A ritual to your blood.
- 3:51You'll need it for this battle. A distant flicker, a roaring
- 4:13flame or cold amber. As long as I breathe, I will
- 4:41find you. Your loyalty is commendable.
- 6:09You chose the wrong side, old friends.
- 6:18It was you who inflicted this wound upon our world.
- 6:23Your recklessness, your arrogance, your defiance of my
- 6:29rule, your lies doomed us. I gave us order.
- 6:36Can't you see the war is over? Death.
- 6:49Is just another step on your journey.
- 6:56You gave your life for me. I give it back.
- 7:00True to our pact, Azra wants to muzzle magic.
- 7:05He must fall so that Talaam can flourish again.
- 7:10I am barely free. His control of magic is too
- 7:13strong. My own body will not give birth
- 7:16as long as he rules. You'll have to weaken him.
- 7:20Claim his great towers, disrupt the stream of his power.
- 7:25There is one nearby in Granary, the troubled realm of the mad
- 7:29under King. Give him rest.
- 7:39When I created the safe haven, I ensured a ritual of fire would
- 7:44be maintained here. We need both its power and its
- 7:48inextinguishable hunger. Go now and strike.
- 7:57Glory to you, children of Ochawi.
- 8:00Praise the Blessed Mothers. Death will mean nothing for
- 8:05their chosen children. Your mother bears life.
- 8:10She is the first root sister to do so.
- 8:13It's a good omen. Like this old tree.
- 8:17I may be waning, but I still serve.
- 8:21Its roots are weak, but it can regrow.
- 8:24Beyond the altar you will reach Grandary.
- 8:27There you should find crystals to nourish the tree.
- 8:34My tree is famished. Here in grandory lies many
- 8:39crystals to feed it. Our plan worked as intended.
- 9:07We have saved Mother and served our purpose.
- 9:10When you need some respite, just come by the fire and let me take
- 9:13over. Azra is far away, protected by
- 9:27many kings. He believes the war is over.
- 9:31He is mistaken. The Sanctuary is protected by a
- 9:53powerful ritual. It is the only place in Talam
- 9:57where Wizards are still safe. I'm coming for you, kids.
- 10:13Fire roars up. Many greetings be upon you,
- 10:19children of you shall we? As it is our first encounter, I
- 10:25have brought a gift. A map will help you trace your
- 10:31steps to reach Azra and his Betrayer kings until I find you
- 10:39again. We are slowly taking back our
- 11:40land, except this modest reward to aid you, my child.
- 12:38The remains of the last Dragon Lord, slain by Azra the day he
- 12:43proclaimed his empire upon Tala. An ugly but efficient
- 13:24contraption. I recognize Azra's handiwork.
- 13:49Azra and his Crimson Order aim to put all magic in chains and
- 13:54the world with it. Their hands are so full of
- 13:59enslaved powers that they cannot guard all of it.
- 14:03Do you feel the strength of this power?
- 14:06How it craves life? Make it your own.
- 14:10There is another ritual maker nearby.
- 14:13I will mark it on your map. The cataclysm eroded the bond
- 14:31between tribes. Azra finally broke it when his
- 14:35tributes forced them into scarcity.
- 14:43These fires are havens created by the Rude Sisters.
- 14:47You'll be safe here. You may rest.
- 14:51I'll watch over you, old. Friends lost, yet laughed,
- 14:59blinked in the air. It's one of the best things in
- 15:48life in Linear Valley. Fairly better than joke.
- 17:35I Stone Dale will not falter you.
- 18:17So it was true, Wizards. Helping the goblins.
- 18:22You'll choke on your own blood. Traitor Dance to you all,
- 18:27sisters. Sisters.
- 19:45Death is just another step on your journey.
- 20:04Hush now my dove, my hands will let you fly once more.
- 20:09This hidden sanctuary was shaped to regrow the order of the Root
- 20:13Sisters. Every step you make on the land
- 20:17channels its life force to my tree.
- 20:19The radiance of Talan. Our bond is growing, and so are
- 20:24my powers. Even when you fail, you bring us
- 20:28strength. This is a contest of immortals.
- 20:32Azra will bring life back to his vessels until you reach him and
- 20:37deliver Talam and myself from his grasp.
