Then, a child was born who would grow to be his nemesis. This had happened before, but Val\u2019baan was possessed of enough brains to maintain an intelligence network that alerted him to possible threats before they were too great to crush. This time, however, the girl was raised in secret by people ready for the time, and when she grew to womanhood the demon\u2019s fate was inevitable. A quest, a battle, an overcoming followed, and the sun rose over the world once more. Kiana and her companions fought for three days to drive Val\u2019baan first back into the valley, then to the temple which had been the seat of Val\u2019baan\u2019s power \u2013 his final redoubt. Two hundred men and women began that fight, ninety reached the entrance to the valley and only eight were alive to see Val\u2019baan trapped as Kiana read from the scroll and completed the ritual of binding. Each of these took their place at one of the eight outer seals, with Kiana herself bringing them together in the centre. The heroes\u2019 strength was thus combined to forge a lock that could never be opened again, from within or without.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0However\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><em>Fuzz the Unyielding, who had stood with Kiana from almost the very beginning, held a secret \u2013 he was wounded. The Demon Prince\u2019s ice-blade had caught him a glancing blow, so slight it went unnoticed in the chaos, and it festered within him. For all his purity of purpose and his resolve, the wound was enough corruption to weaken the Western seal that was his responsibility, and that weakness was taken by the ritual of binding into the great seal itself. The door was cracked, and Fuzz suddenly succumbed to his wound less than a day after the heroes finally parted to return to their homes.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The Bard Queen, however, could feel the darkness rising once again. She passed word to the kings of men and elves, and gave orders to her storytellers to ensure that all would know danger loomed once more.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cFind us our champions,\u201d she said, \u201cThat we may remain safe another century. Call those of heart, and courage, and strength.
