all
of you. Here I go:

About a thousand years ago, a group of mages that "followed" the Druidic path
felt the pressures of the Church. They practiced blood magic and where
rightfully deemed 'pagans.' To protect themselves from thier hunters, they
developed a ritual that would allow them to contact the meta-planes and summon
a horrrific spirit. This spirit possesed the anti-virtues of the Druidic Sun
path. It was corruption. Unable to dispel the spirit, the Church enlisted the
aid of a group of Sun Druids. Together, they created a ritual that trapped the
spirit in a web of magic. After the trapping ritual was cast, an order was
created in the Church to protect it. Thier motto was VITRIOL. This is an
achronym for the latin saying -"Visit the interior of the earth, Rectifying,
find the hidden stone."

Now, a group who calls themselves the Children of Chaos claims to have
discovered a ritual that will destroy the trap. They need a host for the spirit
to inhabit. I believe that they have chosen Tomas Kirith (TK) for this. I am
not sure why they needed the young girl. If you look on the map, we found the
black pyramids in the following pattern:

Chartres----------------------Reims
| |
| |
| |
Langress--------------------Bourges

According to my motto and assuming that the part about earth refers to this
box, the center of the web would be located in Sens, France. Not by coincidence
the largest of the Cathedrals is also found in Sens.

I hope you can forgive me for not being upfront, but I had to be sure first.
We must attack this Cathedral as soon as possible, and pray that it is not too
late.]<<<<<
