[An illustration of a burning city introduces this book's frenzied summary of Elturgard's recent history.]
PEOPLE OF THE SWORD COAST - THERE IS NO CAUSE FOR ALARM
You have no doubt heard of the HARROWING EVENTS that befell the city of Elturel. An entire city DISPATCHED TO THE HELLS! Perhaps you have also heard the DERANGED GOSSIP and rumours that a similar CATACLYSMIC ATROCITY may befall the city of Baldur's Gate.
HAVE NO FEAR
The so-called Holy City of Elturel has in fact long been a FOUL PIT OF DEVIL-WORSHIPPERS. From the ruling classes to the common folk, the citizens were all TOUCHED BY THE INFERNAL. Whether it was in their BLOOD from birth or they were seduced by its power, they were EVIL TO THEIR CORE.
ELTUREL INVITED ITS OWN DOOM
Baldur's Gate is FAR FROM PERFECT but ANYONE who believes the ROT runs as deep as in Elturel is either MAD or an ELTURGARDIAN PROPAGANDIST. The Fists will defend our city WITH THEIR VERY LIVES if they must and I promise you that no INFERNAL CONSPIRACIES infect the MINDS AND SOULS of our noble Dukes and Patriars.
A HISTORY OF CONTEMPT
Have we already forgotten that before this latest MADNESS, Elturel was INFESTED WITH THE UNDEAD? Should we forget the AGGRESSIVE EXPANSION of Elturgard? They have NEVER been our friends.
VIGILANCE WILL PROTECT US
DO NOT BE ALARMED
