A Covenant On Fire Diabolism, Jealousy, and Revenge in Mythic Europe
The Score
The Fires of Reason
The wizards of Mythic Europe dare to seek knowledge and wisdom in a perilous medi¬eval world that wants them dead. The Church, the laity, the fay, and Hell itself seek to snuff out or abuse the magic of the Order of Hermes — the order of wizards to which you belong. For sanctuary against these threats, wizards gather together in castle-like covenants to study, experiment, and strive for a better world. Think of them as colle¬giate communities, castles of wisdom fortified against the world without.
Your covenant, Mistle Lake, failed at the wisdom part and burned down. Only one wiz¬ard survived—a young man called Veritius—and he lays dying in a nearby abbey. Now the local church’s Inquisitor has come calling for answers from that lone soul whose tes¬timony might shed light on the affairs of the covenant. So Veritius tells the Inquisitor the tale—or, at least, a version of the tale—of the covenant’s downfall. He may be delirious, vengeful, hopeful, seeking absolution, or looking to cover someone’s tracks.
We hear Veritius’ tale from his sickbed, safe in a monastery, as he relates it to the Inquisi¬tor. See the next pages for ways this wrinkles play to create a unique fiasco.
This fiasco is all about hindsight, perspective, and the nature of truth in a sordid world of zealotry and heresy. Also, lies.
