“Wrapped in a cloud came he, by a bright whirlwind borne along.
He descended gently from the heavens to the infant fields of
Earth, even before the fires of its forming were yet subdued.
Thus did the Unicorn possess the brightness of the Light, that he
might drive all darkness and obscurity from him. He was called
Asallam, of unicorns the firstborn, a creature fearfully wrought
and wonderful to behold, bearing a horn of a spiral light.”
– Master Magnalucius, The Codex Unicornis
