"Embrace the corruption within. Those who fear and deny it are blinded, but you, you will see clearly. The gloom of the Abyss shall not frighten, but empower you. Become the mirror that reveals the void in the hearts of the ignorant. Take everything they have and show them Urrath's greatest truth: that there is corruption in everything, and everyone."
-Lithyl Nightweaver, Harbinger of Urrath
