== {{sod}} Introduction ==
The following is a letter from Yog to the [[Wizard]]s of [[Bracada]] at the start of the {{sod}} manual that served as an introduction to the expansion's story:

<div style="font-style: italic">To the [[Wizard]]s of [[Bracada]],

My tale is a long one, but I must tell it because there is no one else who will. After all, who would believe [[Crag Hack]]'s bar room bragging? [[Gem]] seems to want certain events swept under the rug, never again revealed. I have heard nothing of [[Gelu]] since he found the cursed sword, [[Armageddon's Blade (artifact)|Armageddon's Blade]]. So that leaves me to tell the tale history forgot.

I parted with you on shaky terms so very long ago. I may be a [[genie]] like my mother, but I have my father's adventurous spirit. Preferring the life I found in [[Krewlod]], I had to leave the one you offered me in [[Bracada]]. It was on this journey of self-discovery that this tale has its earliest beginnings. After being accepted into [[Krewlod]] society, I began my wanderings and met three people near the [[Erathia]]n-[[Deyja]]n border. The four of us were all searching for a new life and stumbled upon events far larger than each of our petty problems.

It was before the [[Restoration Wars|Restoration of Erathia war]] when I met and worked with the young [[Gelu]], the beautiful [[Gem]], and the barbaric [[Crag Hack]]. My three comrades were from such different backgrounds it is surprising we were able to work together. [[Crag Hack]] was an easygoing man, with a passion for combat, wine and lots of women. He made me smile and forget my own troubles for a while. When [[Gem]] wasn't slaughtering the forces of [[undead]], she was a quiet and reserved woman with a kind heart. [[Gelu]] had barely graduated from the [[Forest Guard]], ready for a fight and eager to prove himself. His seriousness was surprising in one so young and contrasted greatly against the boisterous [[Crag Hack]].

Somehow we managed to stop a [[Necromancer]], [[Sandro]], who had plans for world domination. Manipulating [[Gem]], [[Gelu]] and [[Crag Hack]], he was able to reach [[Deyja]] with some very powerful items in his possession. Once there, he vaulted a puppet king, [[Finneas Vilmar]], to the throne and threatened to conquer all of [[Antagarich]].

My tale will begin in four separate places, but in the end you see that all of the events were intertwined, leading to the near destruction of us all.
