The Gord'Un scout looks at Aalmon with serious eyes. "You seek to save
your entire people from disaster? What greatness do you and your friend
have to save a nation? And what is this Darkness you speak of?"

"Chaos stalks my world.
Broos have bruised me, the Hand has pawed me.
I have taken up the impossible path,
And seek those who must aid my task...."
