How you interpret it is up to you, but fulfilling the Prophecy will unlock powerful rewards.
  
  
• Two New Story Realms:
  • Rings of Emnora - Enter the hidden realm of Emnora, stronghold of the Archons, in a search for aid in the eternal war against Urrath.
  • Cliffs of Sordünn - Land on the Coast of Sordünn and explore an ancient land that fell into the endless horrors of the Umbral Abyss. Reclaim the realm from Urrath's clutches and fulfill a Prophecy that will shape the war between light and darkness.
