A chill wind rose over Norrath.

It swept over the swamps, the deserts, the plains and the forests. It blew over the ogres, the elves and the halflings. It passed over rivers and oceans and rocks. The wind blew over them all. the wind came to Everfrost. It whirled round the tundra and whistled over the great peaks. It came and found the barbarians.

And there, instead of chilling them to the bone, it lit a fire in each of their hearts.
