Description
βIn the darkness beneath the streets of London, the mooncalves have dwelled for almost two thousand years, hidden from the prying eyes of humanity. I am Versutus Bookwise, lorekeeper of my people, tasked with the preservation of our history, stories and traditions.Mooncalves have dwelt beneath these streets since the days when Romans ruled the land, and the eldest among us still recall the city above as Londinium. In those ancient days, the Romans revered our witch mother and sought her counsel as an oracle. But times changed and Christianity took root, ushering in an era of persecution and suspicion. We mooncalves, the offspring of witches and demons, cannot know God's love, for your priests declared us unholy. We found ourselves hunted, killed and driven deeper into the shadows.
A few of us survived. Our existence relies on stealth, cunning and magic. We travel through forgotten tunnels beneath your city, hidden from the world above. We have watched your city grow and grow, swallowing everything in its path, its buildings climbing ever higher, its streets overflowing with people, more people than we ever thought could exist. We keep eyes on the surface world through our spies and observers, who venture forth under cover of darkness, keeping us informed of events in the ever-expanding city above.
Though I may have lived through centuries, I remain as devoted as ever to the pursuit of knowledge and the preservation of our heritage.Β As the mooncalves' lorekeeper, I carry the weight of our history on my shoulders, a responsibility that weighs heavier with each passing year. I fear that our existence is becoming increasingly precarious and one day, your city will swallow us too. Until then, I will continue to perform my solemn duty, recording the story of my people, the trials endured and the trials yet to come.β
