The Shadowlord

“The Shadowlord is the master of all things hidden. He shelters the thief, the assassin, and all others who hide in his shadows, yes; but he also guards the arcane secrets that we use to weave his shadows and bend the world to our will. The Arcane, at its most fundamental—at its purest—is the art of knowing what others do not. This is the purview of the All-Knowing One, and it is he that grants us our power. You would do well to remember that, mage, lest it abandon you in your hour of greatest need.” -Talan the Shadowpriest
