Book I Prologue
Citizens Be Warned; Dangerous Crystal Threatens All Life on Valenth!
Chances are you've seen it in action; powering zeppelins, portable appliances, even the wildly-popular varanius-model household automatons manufactured by the MIRACLE Energy Company.
Dreamshards. Applauded as a revolutionary new energy source for a new age, these tiny crystal pieces are brimming with energy.
Most dreamshards never require replacement; surely, they are, indeed, miraculous!
WhatMIRACLEand the Silent Rose Organization don't want you to know is that dreamshards are tiny fragments of the Fatis Mirajin-- a massive stone hidden away within Chimre that even now threatens to irreversibly corrupt and destroy the natural world!
It doesn't end there, either.
Recent studies by highly-esteemed researchers have uncovered an even more ghastly discovery; the Fatis Mirajin's energy is not only capable of corrupting and disfiguring all it touches, but it may be capable of destroying your soul!
Vitae is the essence that grants life to all beings; when a creature is born, it is granted a small amount which fades away again when death occurs, returning to the planet to be purified and begin the cycle anew.
The Fatis Mirajin's energy-- which is very much present in dreamshards, depleted or otherwise-- corrupts Vitae in a manner that ensures it can never be recycled.
This eats away at Valenth's supply of Vitae, slowly but surely-- a finite supply!
Worst of all, the Fatis Mirajin MAY BE RADIATING ITS ENERGY ACROSS THE WORLD.
Beware; you, your loved ones, and even the whole of Valenth may be in grave danger!
If you suspect you may be suffering from Mirajin poisoning, please contact your nearest Firestarters Center right away for assistance.
Regular physicians cannot help you, and may be allied with the Silent Rose!
Viaan vis, and beware!
-The Firestarters
