{{H|Gem|hero_link=Gem (Sorceress)|image=Gem (Sorceress)|0=}}: It is hard to believe a year has passed since [[Archibald]] and his [[Necromancer]] allies were defeated, ending the [[Succession Wars]].  In that time I have been living a nightmare, for I see the ghosts of the fallen all throughout [[Enroth]].  I hope my former teacher, [[Amanda]], is right.  I hope moving to a new land, to [[Antagarich]], will still the ghosts of the war.

=== Timed events ===
{{TEheader}}
{{TErow| 1 |Intro|Eight months ago my mentor, [[Amanda]], told me of a device invented in [[Antagarich]] that might end the nightmares that have plagued me.  This invention, which she called a [[First Aid Tent]], is capable of healing all manner of wounds.  I traveled from [[Enroth (continent)|Enroth]] across the ocean to [[Antagarich]] and searched until I came to the town of [[Clovergreen]], where I was able to purchase this wonder.}}
{{TErow| 1 |Intro (cont)|When [[Delino]] learned I had been a general in the [[Enroth (nation)|Enroth]]'s [[Succession Wars]], he summoned me to [[Clovergreen]]'s Town Hall to discuss his plight.  He won my sympathy, and I agreed to command [[Delino]]'s militia in a campaign to destroy the [[necromancer]]s.  I do not relish going to war again, but the [[necromancer]]s must be stopped before they devastate [[Erathia]] as they did [[Enroth (nation)|Enroth]].}}
{{TErow| 5 |[[Rampart]] Castle|Following [[Delino]]'s advice, I based my armies at a pair of vacant [[Rampart]] Castles north of [[Clovergreen]].  These castles are to me an odd combination of old and new. Some of the creatures living in these castles seem like old friends: the Dwarves, Elves and Unicorns.  I have also commanded Centaurs in the past, though they were archers, not lancers.  But I find it strange that Pegasi, Dendroids and Dragons also call these castles their home.}}
{{TErow| 13 |Necro Castles|My Elven scouts have just reported there are two [[Necromancer]] castles to the North.  The raiders are based out of them, and as long as they hold these bases they will continue to come across the border.  Taking out the castles is the key to stopping the raids.}}
{{TErow| 21 |loc=(BUG: none)|Black Hair (Deleted Unless [[Gem (Sorceress)|Gem]] gets her horse)|One of my Centaurs approached me while we were setting up camp.  "My Lady [[Gem (Sorceress)|Gem]]," he asked "Why is it you hair turns black before and during a battle?"  The question took me by surprise.  I stared at him for a moment.  He fidgeted and began to back away.  "I didn't mean to..." I laughed.  "No, it's alright.  I guess you wouldn't know.  Where I come from, most of the [[Sorcerer]]s are raven haired."  Seeing confusion in his eyes, I explained, "It's just to confuse our enemies.  So it's harder for observers to tell which [[Sorcerer]] is actually on the field.    Of course, there aren't any other [[Sorcerer]]s that I know of in [[Antagarich]]."  I had to laugh at the look in his eyes.  Clear as mud obviously.  But I didn't get any more questions about my hair.}}<!---There is no check for any player to which this event applies--->
{{TErow| 29 |Necro Harvest|I rode through a small hamlet yesterday, and I had a horrible sensation of deja vu.  A Necromancer had gone through the hamlet on a "harvesting" rampage.  That's when they kill a whole village and then raise all the bodies as skeletons or zombies.  The only bodies they can't use are the small children because their bodies are too small.}}
{{TErow| 29 |Necro Harvest (cont)|I buried the children and freed the animals, which were still alive.  The real horror is that the dead children are the lucky ones.  They have gone on to the afterlife.  The tormented souls of the adults are tied to their undead bodies, unable to rest until the body is destroyed.<p>WHERE WAS THESE PEOPLE'S LORD TO DEFEND THEM?  These lands are supposed to be [[Erathia]]n, and I have seen no sign of an organized force to oppose the [[Necromancer]]s.  Don't they know the Necromancers won't stop harvesting until every single person is DEAD?</p>}}
{{TErow| 32 |Nightmare|I was with a small patrol traveling in the forest in the hour before dusk becomes true night. Bats swooped in the evening air chasing insects.  Suddenly they flew with more purpose, surrounded us, and transformed into [[Vampire Lord]]s.<p>Sprites screamed, elves shouted.  Skeletal hands reached from the earth and pulled down my horse.  On my knees, I pulled lightning down from the sky to blast the Wights swarming my Dwarves.  The Unicorns charged, impaling Vampire Lords with their horns.  Just feet away, a Skeleton slew one of my Druids.<p>The sky exploded into light as my Phoenix swooped with fire running down their wings to char the remaining Vampires and Skeletons.  The Necromancer cast a final spell and turned to flee.</p>}}
{{TErow| 32 |Nightmare (cont)|I rolled from my cot shaking with anguish and rage.  This time the [[Necromancer]] would pay for the death, for the dead.  Bursting from my tent, I raised my hand to pull down lighting to stop the [[Necromancer]] from escaping, only to stumble with confusion at finding a sleeping camp.<p>"My Lady?" asked a sentry, concerned.<p>"I had a dream", I said. "Just a...a dream.  A nightmare.  I'm fine.  Fine."</p>}}
{{TErow| 40 |Meeting with [[Ranger]] ([[Clancy]])|Last night I met [[Clancy]], a ranger hero who has a bond with Unicorns.  His Lord is an [[AvLee]] Border Lord named [[Fayette]]. We quickly befriended each other, and I told [[Clancy]] about my homeland [[Enroth (nation)|Enroth]] and its [[Sorcerer]]s while he told me about [[AvLee]] and its [[Druid]]s and [[Ranger]]s.  [[Clancy]] was apparently scouting the [[Contested Lands]] for Deejay incursions, though he didn't come out and directly say so.  I told him I was helping the [[Clovergreen Militia]] destroy undead raiders.  I'm afraid I expressed my distaste a bit too strongly.}}
{{TErow| 48 |Manda Dream|I dreamed of [[Amanda]] last night.  She asked me how I liked [[Antagarich]].  I told her I thought most of [[Erathia]] seem very crowded and, well, settled.  From what I have seen though, I like the countryside of the [[Contested Lands]], but I don't like the way the [[Erathia]]n Lords seem to neglect their people.  I also told [[Amanda]] what the [[Ranger]] [[Clancy]] had said about [[AvLee]].  It sounded like a good place to live, very open and wild.  I like that.  I am also becoming very fond of the [[Rampart]] creatures, which make up most of [[AvLee]]'s towns and troops.}}
