The year of ilith is over and the Eighth Tribe seems further than ever from its destiny. I look back our foolishness over the last several seasons, and I cannot help but agree with ruka. We Fallen, regardless offaction, are so anxious to embrace the future that we ave forgotten all lessons ofthe past. Listen to me, I sound like a Yagan... Lilith taught us one thing it was that our roots are still important, that i f we are to call urselves the descendants ofJoshua, we must know Him. We know now thatJoshuan munities are hidden in the Outlands waiting for us. I remember the Joshuan ques well and I hope t o see him again someday. Maybe it’s because I was born an Agnite, but mention ofJoshua always brings Mary the Forgiver to mind. She t o o is a lost Fatima and I wonder, ifthere are still Joshuans, why not Marians? Of course, for many of us the past just means the Tribes and their oppression. But we must remember that they too have their heroes. The Joanites who sided with Lilith remind us all that there are still those who can fight the good fight in the Fatimas’ race. Sometimes, I am jealous of them. file inally, I see the Keepers as a sign of hope for us. They understand the past in ways en the Fatimas don’t, and some oftheir number are willing to share that knowledge. If we are to build a solid future, their help will be essential. Our ally Acturius has told me he will soon bring secret records for us to examine; I’m almost giddy with excitement. Once an Agnite, I suppose. This supplement is an extension of the material presented in the Tribe 8 Rulebook. chapters Two, Three and Four expand on the narrative ple That’ll be enough writing tonight, I think. Deus is stirring and there are some needs that words just cannot satisfy. source material, providing details m on the Lost Tribes ofJoshua and Mary, the Quest Circles of the Seven Tribes, and the Keepers. Along with Sa - Altara Ven, member ofthe Eighth Tribe. Tribe 8 Companion information in Chapter Seven, these chapters provide many new options for Players and Weavers. chapters Five and Six are complete quests, one designed for a tribal Quest Circle, the other for agroup of Fallen. chapter Seven rounds out the Companion with a variety of resources for Weavers, including advice for using the new factions, details on the population and economics of Vimary, and advanced combat rules. The events in this book occur after the children of Lilith cycle, but do not form a key part of the“chi1dren of Prophecy”story1ine. 5
