SC_208079_BOOK_0 | The Riddles of History |
SC_208079_BOOK_1 | Over ten years ago, General [115598|Drake Angerfang] went on a campaign. Everyone was hopeful that the general would return triumphant, but in the end, only [116220|Skarbar Sharpclaw] returned with a handful of survivors.\n\n[116218|Skarbar] told everyone that General [116217|Drake] was killed by [116224|Zanka] in [ZONE_ZANKA_DUNE|Zanka's Dune], and most of the soldiers died as well.\n\nThis was shocking news, because we had all seen that General [116217|Drake] was heading out to suppress the banditry of the [116219|Rotteneye] tribe. Why had they suddenly changed course to [ZONE_ZANKA_DUNE|Zanka's Dune] to attack [116224|Zanka]?\n\nSome said that the [<S>116219|Rotteneyes] were behind it all. That they had tricked the general into attacking [116224|Zanka], knowing all along that he would be eaten alive. But wasn't [116217|Drake] too smart to fall for such a trick?\n\nThe answer to that question, along with [116217|Drake's] bones, have all been buried beneath the sands of time. |
SC_208079_BOOK_2 | After the death of General [116217|Drake], everyone urged the wise [116218|Skarbar] to become our new lord.\n\nYes, I said, "wise." While [116217|Drake] still ruled, [116218|Skarbar] was a reliable advisor, and his fame was only secondary to [116217|Drake] himself.\n\nAfter the well-loved [116218|Skarbar] took up his post, he re-outfitted the army to prepare for an attack on [116224|Zanka], to avenge the death of [116217|Drake]. Of course there was no shortage of enthusiasm for the campaign, and volunteers joined the newly reformed army in droves. The [116222|Angerfang] clan was particularly fervent, and nearly all of them volunteered to join [115600|Limon]. The [<S>116221|Sharpclaws] were active as well, particularly in support and logistics, but none could match the numbers of the [<S>116222|Angerfangs] on the front line. |
SC_208079_BOOK_3 | At the time, no one thought too much about it. We just figured that [116218|Skarbar] knew that the [<S>116222|Angerfangs] wanted vengeance more than most, and would thus make the most stalwart troops for the front line.\n\nThis campaign, like the first, did not go well.\n\nThe army was bitterly defeated, and the [<S>116222|Angerfangs] were nearly wiped out. Not only was General [116217|Drake] not avenged, but the entire country suffered a major blow. [116218|Skarbar] announced that he would not send another expedition until a more fit and able army could be assembled. |
SC_208079_BOOK_4 | It was about that time that [116218|Skarbar] began sending squadrons to [ZONE_ZANKA_DUNE|Zanka's Dune] for military exercises. While there wasn't a repetition of the previous tragedies, each expedition saw some loss of life. But the bodies of the dead were never brought back, which caused some consternation among all of us.\n\nWhen General [116217|Drake] died, his body was never found. Over a hundred soldiers set off to battle [116224|Zanka], but less than 30 bodies were recovered.\n\nEven more strange was the fact that none of us ever discovered the bodies of the fallen at [ZONE_ZANKA_DUNE|Zanka's Dune]. It all added up to a tangled mystery which none could unravel. |
