::Darkness. Then, the sound of metal cracking against rock. A spark, and then a small flame. The flame falls down, and then grows. We can see a pile of tinder and a piece of flint in a small hole.::
Very Familiar Voice: "In my dreams, I see a woman by a river, washing bloody clothes mournfully."
::The camera slowly pans up from the fire pit, showing boots of leather plated in iron, and hide leggings. The scraping of rock on metal can be heard now.::
VFV: "I have seen this woman before, washing different bloody clothes. Of these garments, I recognize many. And you know them well, for they are those I have defeated. For these long years, before I went into battle, I'd see the clothes of my foe being washed by the mournful woman by the river."
::The camera continues to pan, showing gauntleted hands sharpening a knife. The figure is wearing a jacket of fur and hide, with a shirt of chainmail and leather armor belt known as a mytholon underneath.::
VFV: "One day I know she will be washing my armor. And when that day comes I will make sure she has plenty else to wash. But this dream, it was not my armor I saw... but that of the Seeker of Storms."
::The figure sheaths the knife, and then pulls out some jerky from a pack. The camera pans out to show the full body of the speaker.::
Corey O'Brian: "You have been seeking battle with me, and I you, for many a season. But you will find the storm I bring is one you cannot endure. I do not bring rain, I bring blood. I do not bring distant thunder, I bring steel. I do not bring winds, I bring war."
Corey O'Brian: "I am the Champion of The Morrigan; The Phantom Queen, the lady of war and death. As Samhain, the sacred day where the worlds of living and dead are at the closest, nears... so does your demise."
