Why We Fight, Chronicle One (House Item)
This is the book that was given to me by Mistress Jaeta H'arn of the Order of Nektulos. She says this book is from long before the Cataclysm, and is one of the first books all Teir`Dal children read.
The Teir`Dal were once the rulers of the entirety of Norrath. We ruled all the lands and all the peoples contained within them. Even the trees bowed to us. But, we were betrayed and left to suffer.
The evil, vile Koada`Dal and their cousins the Feir`Dal called upon their frail and cowardly Gods to aid them. With the assistance of these Gods, the elves banded together and directly attacked us. The elven Gods, knowing the weakness of their people, broke all traditions and came for us because they knew they could not overcome The Prince of Hate.
So good was the elven Gods' cover-up of their actions, the Father never took action to aid us directly... But, oh did he punish them. They were all imprisoned in his plane and made to suffer for eternity. The Father again did not aid us directly. Instead, to strengthen us, we were given the responsibility of punishing those who dared threaten the children of The Prince of Hate!
Now we hunt those elves and their allies. Vengeance will be ours, and we will reclaim the lands that are rightfully ours! For the Prince of Hate, we will fight! For our honor, we will fight! Never will we stop in our pursuit! Take arms, young warrior, and fight the battle for your ancestors and all Teir`Dal.
