story=_ "The remote village of Maghre in the eastern reaches of the kingdom of Wesnoth was once a peaceful village, its villagers mostly unaware of the comings and goings of the wider world. However, a darkness spread from the northlands, shattering the peace and tranquility of the region; a dark mage was the harbinger of this shadow, the spreader of havoc and despair."
story=_ "The remote freehold of Maghre in the eastern reaches of the kingdom of Wesnoth was once a peaceful place, its ihabitants largely unaware of the comings and goings of the wider world. Wars and the rumor of wars touched them not, until the day a dark mage settled in the region and begain seeking sacrificices for his evil summonings."

story=_ "Skeletons and zombies left cattle and beasts of burden dead in the fields. Barnyards all around of Maghre were set on fire. The Villagers knew that their biggest fears have come true and they felt like all hope was lost"
story=_ "Skeletons and zombies killed cattle and fired fields. 'Fear and obey Mordak the Mage!' they cried in fell voices as they did their foul deeds. People vanished from isolated farmsteads. Men and women began to fear the night, and their children even the bright day. But the nearest lord was more than a day's ride distant, and messengers sent to seek his help did not return."

story=_ "Many of the villagers looked to Bjarn, the local mage, for leadership in this desperate situation and he promised to send for aid. He armed the strongest villagers with stores from the armory and sent word to his brother Arne, the leader of a mercenary band of horseman."
story=_ "There was a man named Bjarn who had shown talent as a mage when he was young, gone to the great Academy on the Isle of Alduin, and returned to work his magic in the land where he was born. The people looked to him for help and leadership. He found weapons half-forgotten from the times of their sires and grandsires hanging in many houses, and bade the villagers to take them down and clean and oil them. He set the smiths of Maghre to making spearheads and ax-blades for the rest."
background=story/Two_Brothers_M1P1.png
[/part]
[part]
story=_ "Now Bjarn had a brother named Arne who had also left Maghre to seek his fortune, and had become the leader of a small band of horsemen who hired out as guards to merchant caravans. Fortunate it was for all that when Bjarn was but an apprentice mage, he had made a pair of amulets for himself and his brother, with which they might call to each other when in dire need. Bjarn sent out that call."

story=_ "Unsettled by the unexpected plea for help by his brother and uncertain which dangers lied ahead, Arne gathered some of his men and hurried to Maghre to help Bjarn."
story=_ "Heeding the call of his amulet, Arne gathered such men as he could and hurried to Maghre to help Bjarn."
