The Prophet's Hand, a fan-created mission for Thief II
By Ripped Phreak

Version: 1.0

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The night of the Soulforge accident was a dark day in the history of our City. Some giant machine
seized up and exploded, starting electrical fires that quickly spread throughout the cathedral.
Father Karras ran back alone into the burning building to shut off the power, saving the City from
a huge blaze that could have devastated the entire district. Sadly, Father Karras did not survive
this final act of bravery.

At least that was the official story from the Mechanists, and the nobility swallowed it like the
effete fools they are. I know the truth, but who would believe such a notorious criminal? At least
the Mechanists have lost much of their power. The Hammerites are taking back many of their churches,
seminaries and factories. The two faiths now exist side by side in an uneasy peace.

In the Blackfyre District, the Mechanists have built a huge shrine with Karras' ashes on display,
while the commons speak of his heroic sacrifice. I can't let this stand. I may not be able to tear
down that lunatic's tomb, but I can at least break in and rob it. After what he did, why should
Karras get to rest in peace?
