===The Evernight=== | |||
The '''Evernight''', also known as the '''Spell of Eternal Darkness''', was used by Zarok to raise an army of the dead to take over [[Gallowmere]].{{Siteref|MED2-EU-Site|uk/nonshocked/storyline/storyline1.htm|Storyline, page 1}} It was used by Lord Palethorn 500 years later to take over [[London]]. | |||
Zarok | ==History== | ||
== | ===14th century=== | ||
Some time after the death of Sir Daniel Fortesque in 1286, Zarok came into possession of this book of Black Magic.{{Bookref|MED2-Manual}} In 1386, using the spells within, Zarok plunged the land into eternal night, robbed the people of [[Gallows Town]] of their souls and free will and brought life to the dead and inanimate. | |||
Sir Dan found the spell book lying on a lectern in [[The Entrance Hall]] during the final stretch of his journey. However, he left it undisturbed. | |||
===19th century=== | |||
The spell book turned up again in 1878, when [[Lord Palethorn]] and [[Professor Hamilton Kift]] located some of its pages within an old tomb in the Hebrides. Palethorn used it 8 years later in 1886 to bring the dead back to life, but because he was missing some of the book's pages, he didn't possess full control over the undead.{{Siteref|MED2-EU-Site|uk/nonshocked/storyline/storyline3.htm|Storyline, page 3|date=20141108104441}} Sir Dan was awakened by the spell and managed to defeat Palethorn. | |||
According to one account, Sir Dan and his girlfriend [[Princess Kiya]] travelled to an alternate timeline where Palethorn used the spell book to travel back in time and rewrite history, replacing Zarok with himself.{{Siteref|MediEvil-Boards|11632|MediEvil developers - Q&A;|February 10, 2012}} | |||
