Ithlinne's Prophecy

"Know this: the time of the sword and the axe is near, the age of the cold wolf's blizzard. The time of the White Frost and White Light will come, an age of madness and contempt: Tedd Deireddh, the End of Times.

The world will die in the frost and be reborn beneath a new sun. That will also be the time when the seed sown by Hen Ichaer—the Elder Blood—will be reborn. This seed will not sprout, but will kindle a blaze.

Ess'tuathesse! It is inevitable! Watch for the signs! If you would know what they are, then hear me: first, Aen Seidhe—the blood of the elves—will flood the earth..."
