The Spirits spoke in hushed whispers. Their voices danced among the wind-blown branches. Their whispers could be heard in the swooshing of the breeze. They were one with nature and nature one with them. They knew no time. They knew no dimensions. They had always been and always would be-Eternal. They knew what was coming. The prophecies had been handed to mankind over a thousand years ago in man's time. The coming of the Enchantress-the coming of the one woman who would aid in uniting the nations and in the end bring about purity and peace. It would be a long and difficult journey, one with many twists and turns and many different players, but the Enchantress would be the life source of this well of hope that would save mankind and the world. Her name would be The Enchantress of Isgor. For so long the Spirits had waited for her coming. The time had to be right. Already mortals were beginning to sense something stirring in the Realms. They could feel it, just as the Spirits felt it. The Spirits had long prepared an instrument, a helpmate for the Enchantress. They had embodied it with their own powers, breathed life into it so that it could think for itself, it could protect itself. In a sense, it was almost as if they had created a living entity. For a thousand years, the Spirits had crafted this precious instrument and the time was drawing near for it to be placed into the hands of its human keepers. This was not without dangers. In the wrong hands the instrument could be used for evil. It could aid those in the black arts as well as work wonders for those who were good, but that was part of the gamble. The Spirits had to be sure that man was ready for the Enchantress. That the alliances made with the Spirit Realm hundreds of years ago would still be honored. That the old ways would continue to flourish ... and so, even though the time of the Enchantress was still far in the future, the Spirits had to give up the precious and powerful instrument that they had meticulously crafted. It was the only physical, tangible object hovering in their Realm of voices. It floated there, pulsating a soft golden glow, waiting to serve its purpose. The Spirits called it The Orb of Orion. They knew from where the Enchantress would come, and so it had been decided that the Orb would be delivered into the hands of the woman whose lineage would one day ultimately produce the Enchantress of Isgor. That woman was Lamrea of Isgor, wife of Prince Sandran of Raganor. She was a powerful sorceress in her own right and would protect the Orb well. The Spirits were concerned, however, about the Evil one, the child of darkness that had managed to spring from her good mother's womb. The Orb could not fall into the wicked child's hands. Nor could that child ever learn of the Orb's secrets. Surely disaster would befall the world should she wield the power of the Orb for the use of evil and twisted, perverse darkness.
