			=== The Barbegazi Manifesto ===
			==== 1. Spectre ====
			"A spectre is haunting the land - the spectre of the Barbegazi. All the
			powers of the land - the elves in their forest homes, the dwarves in their
			sunken mines, and even the stupid humans in their cities of wood and steel,
			are in a holy alliance to exorcise this spectre. I, Rubezahl of Barbegazi,
			along with the ideas of liberation for all gnomes, am that spectre. These
			adversaries, who are champions of oppression, death, war, and ignorance,
			oppose me with a vehemence once reserved for the darkest of dragons. They
			decry the freedom the Barbegazi would bring to the gnomes of the world, for
			it would mean their very destruction. And a just destruction it would surely
			be. This then, is our Manifesto. It is an open declaration of our ends and,
			as importantly, our means. Let the oppressive races of the would tremble
			at this call to arms. We, the Barbegazi gnomes, have nothing to lose but our
			chains. They have a world to lose."

			==== 2. Dream ====
			"The Barbegazi gnomes lived as if in a Dream - a dream outside our conscious
			control, twisted and dark. We thought we were satisfied with our lives,
			tinkering with our mechanical devices, and working our ever more deep and
			depleted mines. In truth, while we slept, the other races of the world had
			long ago seized control of our lives, keeping us complacent with empty words
			and dirty gold. They made us believe that we needed them more than they
			needed us. For hundreds, or perhaps even thousands, of years the Barbegazi
			gnomes served the whims of the other races, always living with the
			unmentionable fear that without the elves, dwarves, and humans, our world
			would dissolve into chaos. Our society was built on a foundation of greed
			which filtered down from our interactions with those less noble races.
			Gnome was set upon gnome for even the smallest chance of gain or profit.
			Families and friends were torn apart by petty feuds over gold, ore, or even
			simple farming rights. The wealth of our ruling class was juxtaposed with a
			deep moral poverty that only served to oppress and misuse the working class,
			who represent the true heart of the Barbegazi gnomes.

			It was within this context that I, Rubezahl of the Barbegazi, one day awoke
			from this dream. With the force of the mighty Inzerre, I was hit with a
			revelation. The gnomes of the world must be free. Free from the influence
			of the lesser races. Free from their oppression and immoral conduct. And it
			shall be the Barbegazi who lead them out of darkness.

			==== 3. Day ====
			"I began to form a following of Barbegazi gnomes. At first we were but a
			small group of like minded gnomes, meeting regularly to vent our
			frustrations and speak our minds. It was our goal to sweep away the old
			political powers by means of a revolution from within Barbegazi society.
			Quickly, through the force of our message, our power grew and became noticed
			by the corrupt gnomes who collaborated with our enemies to keep us under chains.
			They conspired to destroy our budding organization through deceit and treachery.
			Many of our members were found murdered or simply vanished. These events only
			served to strengthen our resolve and it soon became clear that no peaceful means
			would bring us our salvation. Only through violent revolt would our aims be
			achieved. This then, has become our rallying cry: only violence can bring
			birth to freedom."

			==== 4. Mirage ====
			"Long did we struggle with the forces of evil. However, the strength of our
			ideas were too powerful to be held down by those of corrupt heart and mind.
			The growth of my following was unstoppable, and within a decade of its
			founding, we were on the verge of bringing all of the gnomes in the world
			under the rule of the workers. The Barbegazi homeland had long since fallen
			under the sway of our policies and we had extended our reach into the other
			gnome settlements of the northern and southern continents. It was then that
			we met our strongest resistance. The other races of the world were
			content to let us struggle amongst ourselves, as long as the precious metals
			which we had helped them collect continued to flow into their overflowing coffers.
			Once they realized that our message would not be contained simply amongst the
			Barbegazi gnomes, but instead was meant to liberate and organize all gnomes
			across the land, they redoubled their efforts to destroy us. The Barbegazi
			homeland was besieged by a conglomerate of elven, dwarven, and human
			forces. Even the normally peaceful giants of the north land joined this evil
			cabal in the effort to destroy us. The Barbegazi homeland, ruled now by the
			glorious workers and priests of my following, was attacked without warning and
			without mercy. It was only through the force of my leadership that we were able
			to repel the attackers. We were able to gain only a brief respite, however, as
			the attackers remained outside the entrance to our homeland, besieging us for
			many months. We could not hold out for very long, and the power of our rule
			had been but a mirage."

			==== 5. Dawn ====
			"Within a matter of months from the beginning of the siege, the gnomes
			of the Barbegazi homeland were near starvation. We realized that if we did
			not escape, the caverns which had been our home for thousands of generations
			would become our grave. In council with my cadre of priests, it was decided
			that we would leave our homeland and seek out a new land, a new life. We had
			remained sentimentally attached to our homeland for far too long, and it was
			time to use our innate abilities to forge the underworld to aid in our escape.
			A group of elite priests were sent out to scout safe passage from the land and
			beyond the reach of the forces of destruction. They soon learned that an
			enterprising, yet foolish group of humans had formed an armada of vessels to
			explore the unknown oceans and perhaps find a new world beyond the known
			lands. Despite our races inborn fear of the open water, it was decided that
			our only escape would be to stowaway on these ships and build a new
			life, and a new homeland. We would carry our message and there forge a society
			of true gnomes, with the ideals of the Barbegazi firmly planted in the hearts
			and minds of all. The humans never knew of our presence on their ships.
			Countless times did their ships founder, and yet each time through our
			hidden devices were they rescued. They believed these to be "miracles". Hardy
			though the humans may be, stupidity is their hallmark. For months did the
			ships travel, until finally this new land was reached. We, the Barbegazi
			gnomes, have found our new homeland. A new dawn has come. And I,
			Rubezahl of the Barbegazi, shall carry the light of our message for eternity."
