From the introduction: "Welcome traveller, to the accursed world of Innistrad. Who am I? Just a humble cathar, whom your friend grabbed to act as your guide. Humanity is hunted and preyed upon by any number of horrors. However our struggle is not in vain. The Angel Avacyn protects us and ensures we do not fall to the many horrors of this world. Unfortunately she has fallen silent of late, which bodes ill for humanity. Heresy runs rampant and monsters grow stronger by the day in her silence. But the faithful fight goes on even as her voice has gone silent. Still we will survive even in this cruel world”
