=Alaundo's Prophecies= 1st Workbench Under Development This page may contain info that is non-canonical, derived from as well as other 

Alaundo's prophecies are a collection of tellings, that were made by Alaundo the Seer that have already come true in many cases over the years and most of them will be fulfilled. All of the prophecies were created probably between DR and 76 DR, a time period which spans from when Alaundo became 20 years old till his death.

Technical Description
Most of Alaundo's Prophecies use prose. They were recorded privately by himself and they were passed to the library of Candlekeep. After Alaundo's death they were chanted by Candlekeep's monks. Therefore, every prophecy was quite always followed in the end by: So sayeth the wise Alaundo. '(And thus, in the prophecies written down below, it will be omitted.)'

First
In Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn (PC game)'s Intro a prophecy of Alaundo was revealed, that foretold about the Bhaalspawn crisis: "''The Lord of Murder shall perish,

''but in his death he shall spawn a score of mortal progeny.

''Chaos shall be sown in their footsteps."

Second
"''In the year of the turrets, a great host will come from the east like a plague of locusts."

"''White birds shall vanish from the North, and great evil shall die and be reborn."

--Sixth Portents

Seventh
"''"Twelve days 'fore Greengrass, his last rally mounts ''Azzer-ash shall leave his men but for one ''To him, he will name barons and viscounts ''And there disclose his dream to the iron son.

''His vision entails his own demise ''Unheralded beneath the north sea wave ''He'll ask his memory be kept alive ''His name invoked in war and peace to save.

''Two days hence, the dragons shall roar its last ''The proud king's body shall never be found ''His solidiers will keep his memory fast ''His kingdom shall become his sacred ground.

''The eternal king nigh thirteen score year ''Inclement tyrant and holy savior.""

--Fifth Portents

"''"When Nightal is almost at a close/ ''There from the gate wall shall descend/ ''A serpent to blow the Horn of Doom/ ''At the graveyard Kingdom of Man.

''If the Star of Storms is its brightest/ ''When the dulcet ballad is played/ ''Soundest ground shall be torn asunder/ ''The tapestry forever frayed.

''But if the Raging King has failed/ ''To keep his five retainers true/ ''Come 'morrow, the blessed sun will rise/ ''And no chaos shall ill ensue.""

--Ninth Portents

"''"The Wyrm shall wander the earth ''and such a pestilence will follow in his wake, ''that all who know of his passing ''shall be struck down by the plague.""

"''"When shadows descend upon the lands, ''Our Divine lords will walk alongside us as equals.""

"''"When conflict sweeps across the Dales the great Lizards of the north ''shall descend with fire and fury.""

""During the days of the Avatars, the Lord of Murder will spawn a score of mortal progeny. These offspring will be aligned good and evil, but chaos will flow through them all. When the Beast's bastard children come of age, they will bring havoc to the lands of the Sword Coast. One of these children must rise above the rest and claim their father's legacy. This inheritor will shape the history of the Sword Coast for centuries to come......""

and

""The spawn of the Lord of Murder are fated to come into their inheritance through bloodshed and misery. It is the hope of their father that only one shall remain alive to inherit his legacy. I foresee that the children of Bhaal shall kill each other in a bloody massacre.""
