Part 1
[color=#33CC00]"Sir, a package was transferred to me when I was patrolling today. Comes from some old man in a Civilian Shuttle. Crazy guy if you ask me, but he said I had to give this to you, admiral."
He shrugged and handed the package to Tharog. The Hellfire Legion Fleet Admiral frowned as he took the thing in his hand and placed it on his desk.
"Thank you, pilot"
He threw a few coins to the pilot.
"Here, go and buy a drink at the bar"
The pilot put the money in his pocket and saluted, and walked away.
Tharog waited till the pilot had left his room and the door closed and then looked at the package. It seemed to contain multiple objects as it didn't have a clear shape it things apparently could move separately in it. He opened it and frowned as he confusedly observed the contents.
Tharog activated it and a text message appeared.
That evening, when Tharog went to bed. he put the amulet on, he lied down and closed his eyes...

- An ornamented, ceremonial drinking horn
-An Amulet
-Various very old photo's of even more ancient things. The majority of them seem to depict the same being, a human with the antlers of a stag, though there are some others depicted as well. All the photos were plasticized for better preservation.
-And finally, a data pad.

Hello Tharog,
It has been some time since I last saw you. 17 years ago when I came to your home, your father invited me. You were still young back then, but I already knew that you were the one. You have probably long forgotten me, but I haven't forgotten you. I felt it when I saw you. I felt it in your father, too. But that was nothing compared to you.
I know what you are now thinking. "What the hell is that guy talking about?!" So I'll explain. I am Cellachán and I am a druid. No this is not a prank, I understand that it sounds very odd. In modern days the religions from days that even at the time of the exodus were considered ancient, are of course not very well-known. Yet it still exists, many religions simply died out, but the Celtoi have always remained. We survived the ages and the gods have never been forgotten. We are all over Sirius and in small groups we continue to worship the gods. Your father was a Celtos too.
I am a druid of Cernunnos, god of nature, forests and wilderness. I have served him for a very long time and have grown old. Yesterday I had a dream, and Cernnunos spoke to me. My end is drawing closer with each passing day, and it is time for me to appoint a my successor. He told me that you were the one I should seek. You are chosen to serve him!
Together with this datapad, I have send various useful things. Most of the pictures show Cernunnos, the others show the other mighty ones. The drinking horn has two uses. First of all it is used in ceremonies and rituals. Second, simply to drink from it. And then there is the amulet, this is vital in what is to come.
I understand it if you do not believe me. Just.. trust me, put on the amulet when you go to sleep and Cernunnos will speak to you in your dreams. You can use this datapad to contact me tomorrow.
Saol fada chugat!
