Balrek said, “ Today a great heavenly host of purple dragons has been released unto the earth. To the elect the chosen ones, ( that is the followers of Balrek), they will bring blessings of healings, joy, peace and prosperity, of unimaginable amounts. But this heavenly host of purple dragons shall also bring evil, destruction and fear upon the rest of the inhabitants of the earth, says Balrek, Lord of hosts. Oh dear, does that sound ridiculous to you? Funny that. I only changed a couple of the names. Guess that doesn't say much for the source material, eh? Go get a clue you nutjob. Prophecy 16th July 08

But this heavenly host of purple dragons shall also bring evil, destruction and fear upon the rest of the inhabitants of the earth, says Balrek, Lord of hosts.
