[19] FIRST SCROLL OF BAAN DAR
need of arms or action. But, by and large, the true Baan Dar is a string of beings taught to act
upon what they believe in, and stand to take the yoke of needed action upon their own
shoulders.
Don't fight if you can avoid blood or war, But if you must make War, do so with all your
Heart and Might. Leave it at Threats if Threats be enough - but never make threats you are
unwilling to carry to conclusion if required. Use all the arts at hand. But ever keep the true
purpose in mind. Stand Tall, but never forget how to bend your knee to help another.
Note: The rest of the scrolls are tales and tellings of various parts of the Legend, some as
passed from Bard to Bard, some as the true tales underlying the Ballads. These fragments are
still to be translated and debated. This fragment, however, contains the kernel of the
Revelation and the true source of the questions surrounding the Baan Dar Legend. What Say
You, Reader? For myself, I do not know... but God or unrelated string of linked souls as laid
out here... I do know that Baan Dar IS a force in our Land and Lives, and one that gives Hope
to many that need it, and pause to many I despise.
