INTRODUCTION
Long ago, during the first age, a
series of dark spells were created.
One of these spells had the power
to bridge our world and the one
of darkness. It was an evil spell
with no purpose but that
of destruction.
Before it could be invoked
it was stolen and broken into
six separate parts, six lines,
six incantations.
The spell however was dark and
powerful, and not easily destroyed.
So instead it was hidden away
in a place where none would find it. Scattered about the world
in six separate locations, six different families entrusted with
its safekeeping.
But men are mortal, and time can be the enemy of fear.
All too soon we forget how the bee will sting and the
fire will burn.
As time passed the families forgot what these marks were
for, mankind dismissed the ancient warnings about these
words of power. They were merely stories; tales from a long
passed time.
But the denizens of the world of darkness knew nothing of
time, with infinite patience they waited. Then after a
millennia, to their dark joy, the spells were rediscovered….

TIPS & STRATEGIES
WEAPONS
Remember a head shot with the bow
is a silent kill. If it takes more than
one arrow to kill an enemy he will
possibly alert others. While in first
person bow view, wait for the
≈ icon
to stop flashing. This signifies your
arrow will be a clean kill. You will have
to adjust your aim with great care for
this to happen.
TIPS & STRATEGIES
Stealth
• Stealth (when all weapons are
put away) is the only time that
Rau can move silently around
the world.
• Flock of birds as a threat:
Watch out for flocks of birds
that could be disturbed by you
when walking near them, as
they will attract attention to
your location.
