I remember

[Haze]

I remember these lands as they used to be.
I remember the trees and the gardens. I was happy then, there was peace.
I remember, too, the day the orcs came.
That day was marked by cries of war, screams from terrified women and children huddled in dark corners.
I ferried many away to safety, but too many paid the ultimate price.
The day our beloved forest became the black woods.
Their recklessness tore our home apart, my people are unable to find sanctuary.
I remember their armies, almost demonic in their evil.
Our misjudgment led us to here, it led us to run, to abandon our home to defeat.
But, we will not forget and we will fight back.
Our day will come.
The orcs must be stopped.
We will have vengeance.

[Velkin]

I too remember that dreadfull and mark my words I will not call these invaders anything but enemy. We must strike back for the children for the women, and for ourselves.

[Vors Nymphkilla]

I remember when maethodoron lived in peace, unknown to other realms.
I remember when we were the greatest fish in the smallest ocean.
I remember when no fighter knew the name of a single Fighter of the Oak.

Now we are known. But we are not yet respected or feared. There are many milestones to reach before we are at our full potential. We need work, we need more training, and we need pizza.
