Transcript:

Before there was Lore, there was... lore. Often neglected and now long forgotten, this scripture was buried in the manuals of our video games until manuals themselves were obsolete. Yet, there was still hope for lore; enter the cutscene… or don’t.

Mercifully, there was one who would champion the cause of video game plots everywhere. She cried out “what about video game lore you guys?” and the old TGS meeting hall rejoiced -- peace would finally be restored to the kingdom. But she could not do it alone, so she appointed three others to join her crusade; the playwright, the painter, and the herald.

The playwright scoured the world for knowledge, translating and recording his findings. The painter illustrated these words on canvas, then made them dance by way of mysterious magic. The herald constructed the theater and filled it with spectators from every end of the earth. Lastly, our Champion let her voice sweep the vast internet kingdom, ushering in an era of enlightenment. And with that, the fellowship resurrected the forgotten fables of video games.

Have fun!
