"Over the ages, comets, fiery nebulae, have torn through our skies as
harbingers of impending doom. They appeared just before the emergence of
the Dark Lord Mondain. They heralded the reign of the Enchantress Minax,
and they foretold the impending danger of the hellborn Exodus . . . Now,
while we live in the midst of peace and enlightenment, the comets have
begun again."
