A tall, older imperial elven woman stands before you. Her pure white hair is cut very short and you can see the magical glow of her purple eyes peering into your very soul. She wears a long, gorgeous white dress with golden trim and a star-and-moon pattern. A single gold ball earring and a thin gold bracelet are the only pieces of jewelry on her. She stands straight-backed, hands clasped, in a pose full of complete confidence.
Welcome, citizens of Eochora. There are many faces among you I recognize, and many new faces I am happy to see. My name is Halanaestra Oriberos, although I have been called many others in my long years in this beautiful world. Some may know me as the Concealed Seer, others as the Sorceress Supreme, and still more as simply The Mistress. But today, we step out of the shadows, because now is the time for action. I have led the clandestine organization known as the Fatebound with one goal in mind. Peace, eternal, in Eochora. This goal might seem impossible to most. There are so many nations, cultures, races, and factions that call our planet home. Is conflict not inevitable? I tell you today, it is not, and I have proven it. For centuries I have traveled this realm, collecting knowledge and magic artifacts, to further enhance my powers as a divination wizard and cleric of time. With these powers, I have seen our future. A future where everyone, across the whole planet, and even from realms beyond, works together as one to create glory. Diseases have been wiped away with powerful medicine. Advanced technology allows rapid travel, instant communication, and capabilities beyond imagination. Even the stars are within the grasp of those in our futures. if you do not believe this, I invite you to join me afterwards as I share my visions with all. But should you deem a better world for all people a noble goal, then I extend my hand to you now in friendship.
You have been invited here today because our world is at a tipping point. This future, like all future visions, is not guaranteed. Fate is a delicate balance, and anyone's actions might cause it to tip one way or another. So, I need your help to ensure that this future I have seen becomes a reality. Today, The Timocracy of Chanard and The Estarian Sanctuary engage in a horrific war the likes of which the world has never seen, spurred on by the grudges of Speydom and Ushal. Sharynnuur, Ethax, and Grunhijar have never been more vulnerable to the increasing attacks of Vrunthull armies. Disease ravages Casgalias, Ther Malduhr, and Dhul Furuhan. The people of Thiyj struggle for freedom against an oppressive government, and the terrifying Godhunter threatens the beings that guard our very reality. Tribes of Scasal fear the foretold coming of a terrifying prophet, and long sleeping powers of Auzivall have begun to awaken that threaten those who live there. The keys of the elemental gates have been stolen by unkown agents, and if used to lock them, all the powers of The Elemental Planes will spill out into our realm, bringing destruction and chaos. Everywhere we turn, violence and suffering seem to surround us.
Now, we have an opportunity. I have pledged the Fatebound to one singular goal: peace throughout Eochora. An end to bloodshed. An end to disunity. An end to suffering. This future I have seen is possible, but only with our combined efforts. This will be no easy endeavor, for violence has plagued our land since its birth. But change is possible, and we can do it together. You are powerful. You have the knowledge and skills that the Fatebound need to achieve our grand goal. We do not answer to a singular nation, a singular religion, a singular ideal. Only peace for all people. That is why I have invited so many different people here today. Only by taking advantage of our unique abilities can worldwide and lasting peace be achieved.
