And now...
let us cast light upon the past in order that we may see the future.
Look, listen, and remember.
Many years ago, the King of the Dwarves, Thrain the First,
travelling through Middle-Earth, discovered this mountain.
The Dwarves mined it up, down and sideways,
found gold and precious stones,
and became rich beyond their dreams.
Men, finding trade with Dwarves to be to their benefit,
built a city under the mountain and named it "Dale".
Living with the Dwarves in friendship, they cherished their peace and quiet together.
And so it was until...
Look... listen... and remember.
Goodness and laughter, laughter and joy.
Smiles light up the faces of all,
and souls, like windows, are thrown wide open.
The sky up above shines clear and blue,
no-one wants to believe that bad dreams may come true,
nor know that some day...
that some day the weather will worsen.
But the tempest arrived, as is always the case.
Disaster moves in to take merriment's place,
with fire and armor and no shred of mercy.
The desperate bell tolls too late to assist,
and how will a mere paper dragon resist
A brave paper dragon...
against one that's real?
When all is stretched thin by eternity's freeze,
When all is enveloped by blankets of time,
the Earth bit by bit becomes merged with the sky.
And night bit by bit becomes merged with the day.
But somebody here's left a track in the snow
which leads to a faraway...
which leads to a faraway hope.
Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!
While you are 13, this is impossible.
While you are 13, you are helpless.
What do we do?
You need one more. A fourteenth.
But where to look for him?
He on whose door you shall see this sign will help you.
Hurry, while it's not too late.
