It was a cold night outside of a ruined temple in the hills of Hylith. Amongst one of the may caves layed a deep, dark secret. The nature of this secret was so evil that no one dared go near the place or even speak of it. The only known records of this place rested in the pages of ancient tomes usually kept in the halls of great wizards, ancient magicians who harnesed the power of the elements to do their bidding. One such indivdual was none other than 19 year old Sol Gareth. He was a wizard who had been expelled from his guild for his constant attempts to use forbidden magic. Before he had left, he had found these tomes that showed him the location of this hidden cavern and its secrets. He had also taken a special weapon with him. A weapon he would choose not to reveal unless it was absolutley neccessary.
Once the young wizard got over the initial aura of evil that surrounded the place, he trekked forth into the darkness, his only light being a torch he lit on the way in. Sol had learned that there was a tomb somewhere deep underground. Opening it would require a special ritual contained in one of the many books he brought with him. Soon, he was in a large opening. The only sounds that could be heard were the tiny drops of water dripping from the tips of the stalactites hanging overhead. There, he saw it. Sitting in the middle of the room like a sore thumb. A stone tomb surrounded by runic carvings in the ground which read: "Beware ye who opens this tomb for evil lurks within. This mattered not to Sol though. He had a purpose for coming here this day and he wouldn't let a silly little warning carved in the ground stop him.
After several minutes, the young wizard set up everything according to the book he had. An upside pentagram was drawn on the stone ground with chalk surrounding both the carvings and the tomb. Candles made of wax containing the blood of pigs were placed at each point of the pentagram and in the center were various other objects required to unlock the tomb and take its belongings for himself. All that was left now was to read the passage in the book and release the seal on the tomb. Why was it, however that this young wizard would go to such lengths in the face of certain disaster? His reason was very simple. A reason why most humans would go to such dire extremes with no sense of consequence or fear of death. Revenge.
