Page_0: "Most of the story of The Keep has been lost over time, 
but the scrolls that were found reveal part of the secret of The Keep.  
Within this text lies the translation paraphrased from the scrolls."

Page_1: "Legend has it... Out of the dust of the earth a being was 
created by The Master Builder's own hands and was appointed 
to be Lord over all the Land of the Master Builder.  
Bestowed upon this being was the power over everything living and dead.  
He was to rule under the Law of the Master Builder 
and keep it's commandments."

Page_2: "But something went wrong.  
The being, whos name was not found in the scrolls, 
thought he could rule under his own law.  
He turned away from the Master Builder's law 
and set out to destroy all who worshiped the Master Builder.  
The Master Builder was outraged at the betrayal of His own creation."

Page_3: "So He commanded his loyal Priests to contruct a prison 
for which His creation shall live out eternity.  
This prison was to be called The Keep.  
The Priests of The Keep were given the Book of the Law of the Builder
and in this book held the secret for keeping in bondage the beast of betrayal."

Page_4: " The beast is to be kept for 1000 years.  
On the last day of the thousand, the beast shall be released from 
Sunrise to Sunset.
It is Written:
'After which, The Keep is thy sactuary, for 1000 years thou shalt be silenced.
And to the Priests, It is Written:
The Book of the Law of the Builder shall be kept in faithfulness of prayer,
And peace shall rule over the land Save the final day.
Woe to thee who curses the Law of the Builder'"

Page_5: "Legend has it, Every 1000 years on the final day, 
the priests were ordered by the Law of the Builder to release the beast from The Keep for a that day.  Two priests would stand oposite one of the 50 crosses 
on the Keep's outer walls, and create a barrier of prayer along both sides of the inner halls.  
The priests would pray over a Sacred Gem Stone, that was created by the Builder's apprentises."

Page_6: "As the beast was released, it walked the inner 
halls of the Keep, and would suffer greatly under the spell 
of the Shield Gem Stone.  
By creating this Wall of Prayer the priests had found a way 
to keep the city and its people safe for one day every 1000 years, 
thus fulfilling the Law of the Master Builder.  

Page_7: "The Sacred Gem Stones were created to keep the beast subdued 
while outside of The Keep. The Force Gem Stone also has the power 
to destroy the beast.  Yet to this day has never been successful.  
The beast can only be destroyed inside the keep.  
Once it is released for a day it cannot be harmed by man or 
Gem Stone on that day."

Page_8: "The story is told that, in the early days of the sect, 
the priests tried to kill the beast by going into The Keep.  
But to no avail.  Thousands of lives were lost.  
Bodies of bones upon bodies of bones did the slane priests 
lay at the bottom of the keep."  

Page_9: "New spiritual leaders of the sect over the generations 
have developed this organized and effective religeous ceremony, 
the Wall of Prayer to fullfil the Law of the Master Builder 
and preserve a thriving number of priests and their desendents.  
As long as the beast was kept inside The Keep, 
the church would continue, and countless lives would be saved."

Page_10: "Early in the construction of the Keep... the beast escaped.  
It killed all of the slave workers in a tunnel by sealing them within 
the rock they cut.  Thus sealing the tunnel with their bodies encased in rock.  
Their screams were heard through hundreds of feet of rock, 
up to the streets of the city above.  After which a second Gem Stone 
was created by two chosen Brothers: Brother Apache and Brother Lazarus. "
 
Page_11: "They devised a force field to act as a barrier to keep the beast at bay 
as the last day of the 1000 years arrived.  
Soon after, the beast was recaptured and put back in The Keep, 
and construction continued.  
Since then, the tunnel has been preserved by the Priest of the Keep.  
Only those whom are blessed may enter."

Page_12: "The Keep is a prison for the worst of all evil.  
As long as the Priests of the Keep have charge of the Gem Stones, 
and adhere to the Law of the Master Builder, 
the city and all its inhabitants are safe."

Page_13: "But, beware... this is the generation that draws nigh the thousanth year.  
The peace that stands today can easily be thrown into darkness 
and suffering for multitudes on the morrow.  
May the Prayer of the Builder save us."
