Foreword

I, Councillor Strix Stonegut of the Adeptus Literaris of Ashbarrow, will henceforth document in this book, the logs of the operational activities and research findings of the Unit XVI, a Silver Flame division designated for field experimentation and asset recovery. All entries were maintained with the empirical precision of someone of this most esteemed rank.

Let the record show that the data contained within, be it the scrawled observations of a condemned elf or the tactical reports from the blighted frontiers, serves a singular, noble purpose: the preservation and advancement of our great nation. The sacrifices documented herein are the foundation upon which our future security is built.
