## Opening Narraration

> "*My name is Talon. I’m the last Blackblood, or so I’ve been told. I escaped when Everit Dred killed all my people. I cut off the points of my ears to hide in plain sight. A tiny creature lives inside me passed to me by my dying mother. It gives me the power to open portals to another world and summon powerful beings called Lu-Qiri. But I can only summon them when I have their names, something that’s proving to be a challenge. The Prime Order wants me dead, but I’ve found sanctuary at the farthest edge of the Realm in a place known as the Outpost.*"
