== Background ==
"In the time before time. Orcs roamed the land. All was darkness. It was a time of woes. It was a time of doom. It was a time of wolves. Mankind was prey. They looked to the sky. Cried to the gods: deliver us. And the gods answered. Into the darkness came a light. A torch of the gods. A dragon with two tails. Flying in the sky by night. One looked to another. What can this sign mean. Orcs grew fearful. Wolves slunk to their lairs."
