Vision of the Shield Wraith

Laika opens his mind to the knowledge of the ether as he seeks a vision of the mortal life of what now serves as the Shield Wraith...

You stand atop a jumble of large rocks, smiling out at your war band. They stand before you on the arid landscape, bedecked in furs and sundry pieces of leather armor, eager eyes turned towards you. You make a rousing speech of praise of the power of muscle and steel over the base and vile practices of magic.

You stand at the gateway to your village, beneath the lofty spikes topped with your enemies' skulls. You swing your sword at the red-eyed raptors that swoop and rend, while kicking desperately at the snakes that strike at your feet. The cowards did not come to face you, they hide away in their towers of arcane evil, sending instead their corrupted animals against you.

Another fight, and there have been many, this time with relentless warriors made of empty armor that moves without inhabitants. Fireballs engulf your allies. Bolts of lightning sear through your troops. Cowering villagers die at the sound of incantations you cannot prevent.

You are asleep and dreaming, a dream you've had before. You stand atop a massive heap of human skulls, battle-scarred, victorious, as your war band and your people stand around you, safe. You see her standing by, among the people, but only you can see her - brilliant defender, shining in gleaming metal armor and winged helm.
