The Eclipse Begins

The monk's drone ceases. A profound hush falls over the courtyard of Camelot. You stand chained to the stake, the fagots piled high around your legs. Four thousand people watch, terrified.

You look up. The rim of black has begun to spread across the sun's disk. Your heart hammers against your ribs—your knowledge of history is correct. The eclipse is here.

"Apply the torch!" screams Merlin, leaping forward with a flame in his hand.

"I forbid it!" shouts the King.

The crowd trembles. The sky darkens rapidly. This is your moment. You must play this hand for all it is worth.
