The Storyteller snapped out of that particularly harrowing vision just in time to hear Vert answer is question and advise the champions to stick to the trees once they were close to their goal. The Storyteller barely registered those words over what he'd just witnessed. But when he noticed that someone had started walking, The Storyteller decided that monkey see monkey do was a good strategy to follow for the moment and walked after Vert, drawing level with her just as he fully returned from the vision. "So the adventure begins" The Storyteller said to Vert in a somewhat desperate attempt to take his mind off what he'd just seen "Did you know we aren't the 1st group of adventurers to be called the Champions of Hope? A decade or so before the High Elves began conquering the continent, a group of human warriors gathered under such a title in a quest to bring down a powerful human warlord who planned on uniting the human tribes through brute force and conquering the continent. Though they succeeded in their quest, they say that the warlord's actions caused the High Elves begin their conquest of the humans and subsequently the entire continent".
