Torumin |
 |
The Torumin has shaped the cultures of both the Malus and the Alyssians. Scripture is used not merely
for spiritual inspiration and succor; rather, it is a "divine blueprint" from which both races believe
they can discern the actions that will allow them to triumph over any and all manner of trouble and
adversity.
Perhaps now more than ever before, the scriptures are being consulted by both sides as they attempt to
determine the course of action that will grant them victory. The scriptures have both generated and
perpetuated the current hostilities between the Malus and the Alyssians, both of whom believe they
are doing the will of the Aldar.
In the scripture below, we will examine only those books and verses which have played an integral part
in the current conflict. Bear in mind that the excerpts included here represent only a fraction of the
complete scriptures – over 4,000 books in all. The sections of the scriptures that are of the greatest
significance during the current conflict are derived from five books: The Endless Shadow (Book 843),
Prophecies and Portents (Book 1113), Admonitions (Book 3541), Origin of Spirits (Book 3647)
and Shades of Dawn (Book 3999).
The excerpts presented below, as well as the interpretations given them by both races, have been arranged
chronologically so as to provide a context for the present struggle.
