Part One

Grimsvold

Grimsvolders are as hard and unyielding as the mountains that birthed them.

—Suratian Ambassador Sakwat al Pidan (attribution unconfirmed)

For the gods so loved humanity, that by their grace and power they bequeathed to each human a single magical Gift, to be used

with sober judgment and reverent faith for the betterment of the world.

—from The Seventh Meditation of Galorian I, high priest of the Jeridanian Order
