Generosity for the Enemy

Now comes the last lesson to love your former foes. It will require your modesty and generosity.

Soon the Path will lead you to June Temple and a very fierce enemy will stand between you and the Mentor. It is an ancient demon that we have already encountered in the distant past. Vur'tazz the Ravager is very tricky, wise and powerful. Defeating him is just half the battle.

For the second half, you must return back to the square of Novograd and read this scroll loudly in front of all. It says that the Empire's Chosen One was first to reach the temple and defeat the demon.

I know it is difficult to give your victory to your opposer especially when you have suffered much from your former enemy. Nonetheless, after this deed, you won't have any doubts. You will accept the Empire like a friend and only hope for salvation.

Yes, I saw everything from my window. It seems as if your voice was trembling while you were reading out this lie. I understand where you're coming from and people need to understand that times have changed. The League is no longer our main enemy. It's time to recall the Grand Astral Campaign when Nezeb and Skrakan fought together.

We are stuck in this war, addicted to it. Simple answers, simple meaning for everyone... If you want to become a hero, hate your enemy. One needs a common foe and the Empire has filled that role. War has become a drug.

But what if after the combat is over, we run away in different directions? Proud Elves separate, Gibberlings call themselves sovereign, paying us back for the fact that we needed them only because of mystery of Astral journeys.

Yes, the demons war will keep our six races together. But what will happen when the war is over? The League and Empire will be enemies again? Or maybe new alliances will appear? Elves and Arisen, united by passion for knowledge and beauty. Kanians and Xadaganians remembering that their differences are negligible. Gibberlings and Orcs will unite due to their outcast, love for ale and joys of life. Do these world of thoughts propose a better future than where we are now?

In any case, we have no other choice. We must try. And with Tensess' help, we will succeed!
