The Winter War: February 11

Near dawn on the morning of February 11, every sentient creature on the island of Vassuryn hears the same message, magically projected across all of their consciousnesses at once, grating like fingernails on a blackboard:

LAMENTATION AND WOE! LONG HAVE I WAITED IN THE BOWELS OF THE EARTH, WHILE THE OFFSPRING OF THOSE WHO BETRAYED ME WALKED UNDER THE LIGHT OF DAY, AND ATE THE FAT OF THE LAND, AND DRANK OF THE GOOD THINGS OF THE EARTH IN THE LAND OF THE LIVING. BUT NO MORE. THE TRAITOR'S DAY HAS COME TO AN END. NOW FALLS THE UNQUIET NIGHT, WHEN MY CHILDREN WILL GNAW THE BONES OF THE FAT CHILDREN OF THE DAY, AND MY OFFSPRING WILL DRINK THE BLOOD OF THE MEN OF THE EARTH UNDER A SUNLESS SKY. I AM TRAZYNEL, AND I HAVE RETURNED.
