The lore

The best place to start is at the beginning, if there even was one. Lum and Nautilus know a thing or two about all things ancient…that much is certain. So, dust off the first illustrated novel, “Sweeping Sand,” and uncover the mysteries of a world called, Olroc…and, if you’re lucky, the universe itself.

The zealtos

We don’t have a secret handshake…yet. But, we do have a growing underground community of Forelords fans so deep into the lore, some call them, “The Illuminati.” But, unlike typical cabals, they are quite welcoming to newcomers. They know that knowledge can be gleaned from every sentient creature…which is whey they are always asking questions:

The secrets

The funny thing about secrets is that we don’t just keep them lying around out in the open…unless, of course, that’s the last place you’d expect to find them. Secrets abound in the world of Forelords, if you do a little sleuthing. Find them in the tomes, the cards…and maybe, the 0’s and  1’s of this very sentence.

Secrets told are never known...
