The world you now enter is an expansive one. Charged with the task of publishing these collective stories, Jaime Buckley has worked tiredlessly since 2005 to bring this world to your people. My task is to add upon his works -- hopefully casting further light among the shadows.   This complex tapestry weaves the tales of Wendell P. Dipmier, a boy found at the center of a historical anomaly we've yet to explain.   My research continues to uncover generational whispers, chanting in unison to reveal the events of this boys convergence. Countless lives and unknown sacrifices, all with stories to be told to the delight of this old historian. These events tug at more than Humans. Wendell has affected the history of the Evolu, Vallen, Gentre, Gypsies, Iskari, and even the extinct race of the Nocturi. His acts have altered nature, awakening creatures who speak languages of their own.   Most are blind to the beings of darkness, influencing mortal agency. The Ogriel and The Unembodied, entities reaching out from the other side, tempt and torment generations -- whispering in the ears of the weak, the desperate and greedy, offering power and opportunity to the hopeless -- all to infiltrate the moral structure of society.   The organizing of this material had to be specific. I feel tempted to write these articles like my books, but discipline and attention are required to make sure you have every detail...lest we allow evil to take hold of our lives again.   Sadly I'm only one person. Old, slow, and tired after a lifetime of wandering this world in search of the truth.   On the other hand, I AM a fishis by profession...which means if ANYONE can do this, it'll be me.   To be clear, this site is more than just a collection of people, places, and events. It's a web through time, connecting lives immersed in magic, lore, and legend...all of which blend into one cohesive world experience. This experience, as you will eventually discover, is all connected to Wendell.   What I'm attempting won't be perfect. The story behind all this IS perfect (at least in my opinion), but me? I'm just an old gnome without a day job and a willingness to keep working until my time is up (or I run out of drinking money).   So if you find mistakes, don't blame the story...blame me.    

How This Material Is Organized

You can come here to discover more about the characters you love, hate, or love to hate. You can search for terms, people, places, and general events--added as they appear in the records I have, which I submit according to its degree of importance.   Rest assured that all information will (eventually) be linked into one cohesive document. The red words you see are links to that very term or subject. As further maps, documents, letters & journal entries are obtained, they will be indexed and woven into the fabric of this site. As lore & more (hehe,...I made a rhyme) get organized, I promise to provide them for your consuming pleasure.   After all, leaking socially-sensitive FAF information to the public has always been a hobby of mine...(and the very reason I was banished from my homeland in the first place).
  Why stop now?
     

How To Access HIDDEN Knowledge

The fact that I’ve published this information in pieces and cannot take it back terrifies me. Many secrets and hidden knowledge have come to my attention over the years....things I've kept to myself, locked away and oftentimes ignored (for good reason). Add to that my recently unrestricted access to The Great Library of the Gnolaum, a place where time has its own rules...   All pertinent knowledge of this world and its inhabitants are now within my reach.
  TRANSLATION: If there's information to be had, I'm gonna find it, cupcake.
  Problem is, most of these secrets are powerful, incriminating, and in many cases, dangerous. We're talking the Book of Dark Bindings dangerous, here. Mysteries solved by brilliant minds and historians, willing to use up their lives in pursuit of the truth, so individuals like you could benefit from such knowledge.   IF you're wise enough.         There is something here for everyone. Those who desire to learn more of this world will find plenty to partake of, especially with what's in store.
  For those who want to know everything, from the smallest lie to legends, lore, and how it all connects together, they'll be able to search and see the marvels only afforded those willing to stop and smell the flowers. True patrons can learn to walk unhindered through halls, homes, graves, and handle the secret letters, vows, and violations of nature, hidden from mankind.   Until now.   As I said, be sure.
  This is not an adventure to be taken lightly.
  TGII help us all.
