Prologue - the discovery

There was a Time, when the world was young, and no man had ever trodden a face of the earth.
Whence it happened that Odin, falmost and mightiest of the Asen Dynasty, rode across the vast planes of Asgaard, to feast his very eyes upon his realm.

And he saw another using his will to call sparkling water from the plane earth to cultivate his fields. And Odin heart how they spoke to each other, thus he became aware of their name; they called themselves Vanier. For three days and three nights his raven stayed in the city of Vanier and for three days and three nights he remainded hidden behind the ancient oak tree. Then when he decided to have seen and heard enough, he summoned back his messengers and turned away from Vanaheim, heastly he rode back towards the sacred halls of Valhalla, to give account of his discovery, to give account of the terrible threat rising in the east....
