00:00:30You
00:01:00You
00:01:30You
00:01:52You wish a word speak and give it voice
00:02:00You
00:02:30You
00:03:00You
00:03:30You
00:04:00You
00:04:14Come this way
00:04:20Yes, what is it
00:04:30You
00:04:36Yes, what is it
00:04:38You
00:05:08You
00:05:38You
00:06:08You
00:06:38You
00:06:44Yes
00:06:55Yes
00:07:08You
00:07:23Follow me
00:07:38You
00:08:08You
00:08:26You
00:08:38You
00:08:58You
00:09:08You
00:09:18You
00:09:28You
00:09:38You
00:10:08You
00:10:21You have returned do you wish to travel you will need to thin your ranks if you need I
00:10:27Shall wait here for your return then. Very well. I am ready
00:10:34Yes, yes, what is it
00:10:39So the coven urges us on to Merkel by taking the theme out road
00:10:43This journey has many branches, but I sense we are closing on our destination
00:10:47We should travel to the theme out and soon your power grows and so does your hunger. I
00:10:55Am sorry, I am telling you things of which you are already aware
00:10:59You spoke to me for some reason other than to hear your own thoughts reflected. So please if you have questions ask
00:11:06Of course I
00:11:11Come from the slopes of Celestia my heritage is evidenced in my wings and my eyes
00:11:20No, I cannot the wings simply serve as a cloak and at times a shield from the Sun or elements
00:11:26They are another mark of Celestia one that I welcome
00:11:31Of course
00:11:36You
00:11:40Very well, who did you wish to speak of I
00:11:44Have seen her grow closer to you in our travels
00:11:46Your presence comforts her and heals the fragments. She feels inside
00:11:52In the house of the triad we tend the spirit as well as the flesh
00:11:57When one is unloved it carries as much pain as a sword blade through the heart and leaves it shattered like glass
00:12:03I think she cares for you and
00:12:06Whatever part of her spirit. She's in touch with react strongly to that and is nurtured by it. It is a good thing
00:12:12I speak of
00:12:15Perhaps I may seem unfeeling at times even distant. I know Ganayev must think so
00:12:20I love my brothers my sisters of the menagerie. They are always close to me, but for romantic love I
00:12:28Have never felt such I love all who live
00:12:32Even those whose hearts have been twisted by pain
00:12:35It is a gift of Celestia and ill mater that lets me see what others have suffered and what they may be from such pain
00:12:47I believe the term is being able to walk a league wearing another's boots and in Rashomon
00:12:53They call it sharing the skin calluses and all
00:12:56Empathy for another undermines hatred or judgment
00:12:59It is a form of selflessness and using their burdens allows them to love as well
00:13:04And that's why the love you have achieved pleases me it heals and makes two people stronger than before. I
00:13:12Do not know it may come from their legends
00:13:16Some spirits or creatures in their lore and even in this age
00:13:19We're said to be able to wear the skins of others and feel as they do
00:13:23It was once spoken of as a curse, but I think it would be a blessing
00:13:32In ill mater's faith no one person no in ill mater's eyes love is more than that
00:13:41Very well, who did you wish to speak of?
00:13:44Gan suffers and his experience in the Sunken City proves it
00:13:48But even confronting the source of his pain as horrible as it was I think proved to be a means of healing
00:13:54I think he sought family. I grew up around my brothers and sisters and there are times
00:13:59I forget that not all had such in their lives
00:14:02The discovery that his parents were denied to him either in life or mind is terrible
00:14:06But knowing that they were not the ones who cast him out is more powerful than any healing I could summon
00:14:11A
00:14:13Very well, who did you wish to speak of he is an ancient spirit one of the beast gods
00:14:19I know too little of the culture of Rashomon to speak more
00:14:23But in showing mercy you have gained a powerful ally and a loyal one
00:14:30Of course
00:14:34My history is in the past where it belongs
00:14:37Let us I am sorry, but my past efforts have shamed me and they are difficult to speak of
00:14:45No, it is I who must ask your forgiveness
00:14:48Perhaps as we travel more together, I shall find the words and the will to speak them
00:14:54Of course
00:14:57And
00:14:59That is correct
00:15:00I am a sister of the ill motari follower of ill mater the suffering God
00:15:05We bring comfort to those in pain and take the painful burdens of others unto ourselves
00:15:13Many faiths seek to help those who suffer but it is my feeling that only ill mater approaches it
00:15:18Justly in ill mater's teachings. I find there is truth through his priests and his blessings. We seek to help all who hurt
00:15:25There is a freedom in such all-encompassing sacrifice I find
00:15:32It is difficult to express and I am not certain I have the words
00:15:36Suffice to say that I found the call of ill mater's teaching stronger
00:15:49Follow me now
00:15:52You are a tenacious little creature in the face of your hunger most would show their bellies
00:16:00You push ahead
00:16:03You remind me of a wolverine
00:16:06Standing your ground perhaps without hope against threats larger than you can comprehend
00:16:11You
00:16:17You're quite welcome little one now if we don't keep moving you'll never be rid of your curse
00:16:28Yes
00:16:41Masked witches elder chags and a red wizard traveling alongside
00:16:46I'm beginning to think you gave yourself this curse to meet exotic arcane women
00:17:06You certainly would have found your perfect woman amongst the coven
00:17:10Yes, well be careful magical women make for dangerous mates
00:17:22Well, I I can't say I
00:17:25You are rather forward. Aren't you?
00:17:28Listen to us bantering like lazy students
00:17:31I've been meaning to ask you. I
00:17:34Realized that dreams are a rather
00:17:37Personal subject. However, if you're willing I like to hear about the dreams you had with the coven. What were the dreams about a
00:17:48Wall of souls who was this companion of yours?
00:18:00Bishop hmm. What was he like?
00:18:06I
00:18:10See so what else did you see in the dream? I
00:18:16Have
00:18:17dreams nightmares really
00:18:19of that wall
00:18:21there's a sensation of
00:18:23Being stretched and an unending scream one long composite scream of men women children. I
00:18:31Really I don't know what to tell you other than it haunts me
00:18:36I don't know exactly what it is or why I dream about it or why you saw it, too
00:18:41I'd rather just talk about some other aspect of your dream
00:18:48You are most welcome so as for the rest of what you saw in the dream
00:18:53Interesting this reinforces Leanna's part in the puzzle even if it provides no answers what happened in this dream
00:19:03Merkle the old god of the dead Kellen born now rules in his place
00:19:11Thespians can be so disagreeable. I wonder if their attacks were part of the play or due to your acting
00:19:19That's a curious trio
00:19:22Those are three creatures that rarely get along. I wonder if they were images of actual beasts or figurative symbols
00:19:33What were the dreams about
00:19:37Really was she me did she recognize you call herself Safiya
00:19:42And what was Ahriman doing there
00:19:51That sounds oddly fitting if you were dreaming of my mother Ahriman wants her dead
00:20:02Oh
00:20:04Well, I guess you're right
00:20:06Dead
00:20:09Oh
00:20:11Well, did you two I mean she spoke to you in a familiar fashion, but you didn't get her name. Oh
00:20:21Of course it wasn't I mean
00:20:24obviously not I mean it's fine if it was but
00:20:28You know what? I mean
00:20:30The only person I know who looks anything like me is well my mother what would she be doing in your dream?
00:20:40What brothers how could you be related to that murdering
00:20:45Of course, it was merely a dream
00:20:48There is often no connection between slumbering thought and waking reality
00:20:54That epithet
00:20:56Betrayer I know I've heard that before but I can't place the memory
00:21:04What were the dreams about
00:21:07Thank you for sharing all of that I was curious about what you saw
00:21:12It seems my mother and Ahriman are both part of this puzzle, though. I can't imagine how or why
00:21:18Still we will likely find some answers at the Academy
00:21:23What would you like to know
00:21:27Yes
00:21:33Those who speak overmuch of the value of dreams usually want to sell you something
00:21:38That being said I suggest you put at least some trust in him if only because he responds well to blunt honesty
00:21:44I grew up around unscrupulous red wizards. I know that a true liar wants to be lied to in return
00:21:53That's servant of I've never trusted people of faith
00:21:56They live their lives divorced from reason
00:22:00Kaylin is no exception
00:22:01You can hear in her voice a terminal innocence if you told her that faith would feed her she'd happily starve to death and die
00:22:07in prayer
00:22:08But you should disregard my prejudice toward the faithful
00:22:11I trust her and so should you she is in her very blood a creature of devotion and integrity
00:22:20When we first met Oku he was still half slumbering and his form then was just a hint of his true self
00:22:25He is a very powerful manifestation of the land
00:22:29Spirits like him well the wizards at the Academy would trade their eyes for the power to bind a spirit like Oku
00:22:35The fact that he has pledged himself to you is a surprising turn of events
00:22:40He is as loyal as a mother bear and as violent if betrayed treat him with respect
00:22:45I don't want to have to fight him again
00:22:50What would you like to know
00:22:53Only rumors and legends really what in particular did you want to know?
00:23:00They're devoured from within driven insane and some of the tales in other words in
00:23:06All the legends they die of course folklore always aggrandizes the dramatic
00:23:11I'm sure the Rishami witches only tell stories with horrific endings
00:23:16The Rishami have few written records of their own, but the Red Wizards have collected some of the stories and committed them to text
00:23:23All my knowledge on the subject is derived from these writings
00:23:27Needless to say my understanding of the subject is little more than hearsay and speculation
00:23:34What would you like to know
00:23:38What would you like to know
00:23:41My mother is
00:23:44My mother is
00:23:46Was the headmistress of the Academy of shapers and binders?
00:23:51She was a rather inconsistent parent sometimes very protective and forgiving the time strict and callous
00:23:58I often felt like a valued possession not a daughter I
00:24:04Made a promise to
00:24:05Never mind the promises are just a convenient excuse. I want to see you through to the end of this mystery
00:24:11There are very few people in this world who I trust and one of them mildly defies the definition of person
00:24:20for whatever reason I I
00:24:22Trust you whatever happened at the Academy is probably over and beyond my control
00:24:29But you I can still help
00:24:34For as long as I can remember I've heard whispers words shouts and mutterings
00:24:41Sometimes at a deafening pitch sometimes so quiet. I barely notice but it's clear that I'm the only person hearing them
00:24:49for a very very long time I I thought the voices were a sign that my mind was
00:24:55peculiar at best and
00:24:58fatally unhinged at worst and
00:25:01Before you ask no the voices have never taken control of me or forced me into action
00:25:06You
00:25:09Most often gibberish
00:25:11fragments of words
00:25:12Sentences so quiet they might as well be a mumble
00:25:16Still there is an occasional bit of guidance
00:25:19Dissuading me from foolish mistakes or warning me when an unscrupulous classmate is trying to deceive me
00:25:27I've tried every divining cantrip every scrying spell in the Academy library, and they've told me nothing
00:25:34The voices seem to be coming from both within and without oh
00:25:42Well usually people associate voices in one's head with raving lunacy in other words you're welcome
00:25:50What would you like to know
00:25:54The Red Wizards are some of the most talented and some would argue ruthless arcane practitioners in the realms
00:26:02Nearly every ruler and authority figure and they swears allegiance to the Red Wizards
00:26:06We are usually judged as tyrants first and mages second I
00:26:13Am an instructor at the Academy of shapers and binders I teach transmuted and transformative magic my specialty
00:26:20Most people assume that we're all disciples of one secretive school, but there are hundreds of academies
00:26:26We
00:26:28Commit the whole of our lives to a single aspect of arcane magic those who wish to learn a little bit of everything like
00:26:33the focus and discipline we demand I
00:26:36Find transformative magic fascinating. I work with spells that can add a spark of life to otherwise inanimate materials
00:26:44Kaji is one of my earliest and might I add finest creations
00:26:49the students of my Academy mostly focus on the
00:26:53Rather morbid arts of binding and altering souls
00:27:01You were kind to say that I was fortunate to be raised by my mother and master Jaffe
00:27:06The two of them made certain that I grew up to be a magician not a despot
00:27:14Yes, though it is not a matter of fashion
00:27:16Our tattoos are traditional symbols of arcane strength and they are inked with magical enchantments that focus the bearers will
00:27:35Yes
00:27:46You
00:28:16You
00:28:46You
00:29:16You
00:29:46You
00:30:16You
00:30:46You
00:31:16You
00:31:41Follow me now
00:31:43Yes, I am certain
00:32:13I
00:32:43You
00:33:13You
00:33:43You
00:34:13You
00:34:43You
00:35:13You
00:35:25Might I have a moment of your time the more I travel with you the more you surprise me with your agreeable qualities. I
00:35:36See great potential in you had you come to my Academy as a prospective student
00:35:40You would have made an excellent if not unorthodox pupil
00:35:44I would like to share with you arcane lore that my mother taught me when I was young
00:35:51During our travels on foot and our idle hours setting camp. I will train you sharpen your memory your focus your will
00:35:59Consider it a gift of our friendship now. Shall we be off?
00:36:10I
00:36:16Let me walk range
00:36:40You
00:36:50Yes, what is it
00:36:59Time to die
00:37:10Yes
00:37:40You
00:37:54No
00:38:10Yes
00:38:27Yes
00:38:40Oh
00:39:10No quarter
00:39:40I
00:40:04Am certain
00:40:10I
00:40:40You
00:40:53Danger approaches be on your guard
00:41:03By the hell
00:41:11I
00:41:21Can do this
00:41:40I
00:41:51My direction
00:42:10You
00:42:25Master Jaffe, I was worried that you might have I mean I was told that my mother
00:42:31I'm afraid so my dear. I'm so sorry if there was anything I could have done for her
00:42:36I'd have done it Nefris was a friend, but there was no stopping our Aman once he'd gained momentum
00:42:42I'm sure she dragged some of our man's pawns screaming to their deaths as she as she made her stand. I
00:42:49Know you did your best and and I'm glad you did not share my mother's fate
00:42:55He's looking for you. You know, he's told the
00:42:58Surviving masters to keep an eye out for you and your friends here. I'm not sure where he is now
00:43:04Word is he's trying to find a way to kill the founder, but that may prove difficult
00:43:12The fact is no one's ever seen her before
00:43:14The popular belief is that she lived most of her life in a private sanctum beneath the Academy
00:43:19But who knows how that got started the Academy was founded hundreds of years ago
00:43:25Now I don't teach numerology, but unless I miscalculate I would say our Aman is oh a few hundred years too late
00:43:35Unfortunately, even though he might be busy you have the rest of the Academy to worry about he is told faculty to avoid confrontation
00:43:43But to everyone else your intruders here and given your blood ties to the old regime Sofia dear
00:43:49I don't think threatening detention will have the impact it used to many here will be after your job
00:43:56Perhaps there are still some left who might aid us in making our Aman's tenure a short one
00:44:00he didn't
00:44:01He didn't kill all the masters of the Academy did he
00:44:06Not all just those who resisted our Aman or who he thought might resist
00:44:11Master porous that is working in his lab right now and master in ours is teaching class
00:44:16They may be willing to help you. I would avoid the others if possible my dear they
00:44:23Partook in your mother's fate. Oh
00:44:26Which reminds me I have something for you Sofia
00:44:29Neferis would have meant to pass it to you and I couldn't bear to see it confiscated by our Aman here
00:44:34Take it. I must return to my classroom before I am missed. You'll find me there if I can be of any further help
00:44:59You
00:45:06Come this way I am certain
00:45:29Yes
00:45:35Yes, what is it
00:45:43Yes

00:49:28You
00:49:58You
