Heroes and Spells, The Lore of Thaloria
As recalled by Simon of the Road, sometime-bard, witness to the fall of the Gentle Age, and last singer of a world that refused to die.

Welcome to Thaloria, a realm once bound by peace, honour, magic, craft, and ancient friendship. This is the story behind Heroes and Spells: the fall of five kingdoms, the corruption of their rulers, and the rebellion that rose from the ashes.
