The Crimson Path

From the introduction: So you decided to see this through to the end, weapon in hand and making your stand. There’s no going back now. No doubt it’s been a terrifyingly eventful situation, what with the significance of the relic now in your possession and the power you wield as a result. Such things rising from the veil of obscurity have a tendency of causing wheels to turn and powers to move in the eternal desire to retain control and influence in the wake of the change that inevitably arrives. For every bargain you have struck with others, tens more have been brought to the tables beyond your vision. For every alliance you broker, countless others will coalesce and rise in fear of what you could do to the galaxy. Even your own side will be fearful of what you could bring, and they might even try to dissuade you in hopes of ensuring they are not cast to the winds when you shatter the status quo for your own nebulous reasons. Others will usurp the destiny that is rightfully yours, bestowed upon you by your Patron to blossom into a being of unfathomable power and might beyond that of a Champion. Yet you will endure. You must endure, or your decisions will have been for nothing. Look on the bright side; this will be entertaining for at least one of us.
