12. WIZARD'S CONCLAVE

Par-Salian:

Today the whole Conclave is gathered in this darkest hour/

The world and the balance of magic are badly exposed/

I’m told that Majere is playing with dangerous power/

Inform us, Dalamar, of all that you know/

Dalamar:

It brings me no pleasure betraying my own teacher like this,/

But, frankly, his devilry can’t be excused/

Majere is searching Istar for the Gates of the Abyss,/

Which means he’s breaking our greatest taboo/

And we in return must renounce the accused!/

Wizards:

Death to Majere! Condemn the abjurer!/

We've never had a worse freak in our ranks/

He's a freak!/

We are united in what we've decided:/

We must destroy this foul renegade!/

Par-Salian:

That’s easy to say, but he won’t be so easily conquered/

Remember, we tried that before when the whelp took the test?/

Instead we set loose from the tower a much stronger monster/

So who will have courage to stop his deplorable quest?/

Wizards:

We know the horror of his reputation!/

Everyone’s fearful, and rightfully so/

We are united in what we’ve decided:/

Dalamar is the one we’ve chosen to go/

Dalamar:

To backstab my teacher would be rather unlike me/

But, still, I can help you unravel his plot/

The Spell of the Gates was mislaid,/

None could say where it might be,/

But I’ve had a remarkable teacher and I’ve read a lot:/

“He who desires to unlock the Gates of Night/

Endeavors at the mercy of his hated foe/

For if the Mage is hindered by a Cleric of the Light, /

All of his efforts shall be doomed—/

As fate foretold.”/

And now, I shall reveal your secret weapon/

Behind this very door--the Wrath of Heaven:/

Fairest Crysania, blessed child of Paladine/

Renowned for her belief and strength divine/

Crysania:

Takhisis won’t escape; I won’t allow it/

Dalamar:

She’ll lend a helping hand/

To win herself the glory,/

And go on our behalf/

To smite our enemy!/

If I may boldly propose a solution:/

Teleport her to the gates of Istar!/

Teleport her to the gates of Istar!/

Par Salian: 

Clerics are well known to be narrow-minded/

Dalamar: 

If that’s the case then we hold all the cards/

Wizards: 

She will prevail/

By her God she is guided!/ 

Teleport her to Istar, Dalamar/

Teleport her to Istar, Dalamar/

Dalamar….
