The Golden Age Of Magic (Chapter 1)<\/p>\n
Early, early in the recorded history of man
\na discovery was made. It wasn\u2019t sand.
\nAncient books and scrolls were found.
\nThey predated man. Few were around.
\nThese objects were magical in nature.
\nEarly man didn\u2019t understand their fate here.
\nThey kept all that were found as relics.
\nReligious minded men called Celtics
\nattempted to translate the articles.
\nMany, many years later smarter soles
\nwere able to break the code.
\nMagic was discovered in written mode.
\nMagic spells and magical history.
\nEven so, most of it was mystery.
\nRelics from Tangura, a mystical land.
\nIt existed way before the time of man.
\nThe search was on to find much more.
\nUnfortunately, most of it was just lore.
\nScholars soon became known as Warlocks.
\nThose who used it for good were Wizards.
\nCertain families became quite skilled.
\nOver the centuries, many were killed.
\nThree camps existed. The common people,
\nthe Warlocks, and the Wizards. It seemed so.
\nThen, came a powerful Warlock, Aladon.
\nHe quickly dominated the scene he came upon.
\nSoon, he commanded all Warlocks with ease.
\nHe could dominate all magical acts to please.
\nHe created a tremendous castle for all.
\nEvery Warlock bowed the knee at his call.
\nSome tried to fight him & were obliterated.
\nWorlock fire soon had them incinerated.
\nSoon, he was worshiped as a powerful god.
\nHe was at odds with Wizards, which was not odd.
\nAnathea was the leader of the Wizards then.
\nThey had a hidden \u2018home\u2019 they lived within.
\nThey believed in the one Creator God.
\nTheir magic was for the good of all, not odd.
\nSo began the Golden Age Of Magic.
\nA time when magic ruled, which was tragic.
\nAladon was determined to snuff out the Wizards.
\nHe wanted to feast on each of their gizzards.
\nBoth groups used positive magic back then.
\nNegative magic was known, but not used to win.
\nThey believed negative magic destroyed Tangura.
\nIt was avoided like a curse—- not a \u2018cure ya.\u2019
\nFirst, there were only minor skirmishes to occur.
\nEach side took a hurting, that\u2019s for sure.
\nThen, Aladon became much more organized.
\nHe really kicked some butt, when the occasion arrived
\nMuch more happened, as we will see.
\nAt a later date, so don\u2019t decide to flee.<\/p>\n
