"And with the might of 10000 prayers from 10000 supplicant voices, the Golden General did send down it's champions. Upon the Backs of Eagles, golden feathered, basked in light, deliverance was given to Moonstair."

"The evil, in it's greed for lives and gold, forgot that light finds its way into every shadowed corner. Upon the keep of the Troll King did light shine, and with it the vexation of a wrathful god! And fire begat light, and darkness was purged from Moonstair."

When many think back to the turning point in the creeping tide of evil, it invariably comes back to the battle at the walls of Moonstair. "Them Warriors of the Sun seemed to float upon the air, and leapt over heights mortals could not attain. I think the Sun God moved his pawns upon strings of etheral energies...or thems Goliaths are part grasshopper."
