Wraeclast goes in loops... at first I couldn't fathom it. But delving deeper and peering throughout dreamworlds of those strange, strange lands, with the help of thaumaturgical device. I think I've discovered a pattern. I come back to those worlds, time after time, but the scrolls, and books only grow expotentially. Words change, but the truth stays the same.

Shaper with his four guardians. Elder with his four disciples. Four Elderslayers and one Destroyer of Worlds. Now there ought to be cycle to repeat. I can sense it. Perhaps It's even happening here and now, somewhere out there, as I write down those memories. Empires rise and fall, and so there are those who witness it, and live to tell the tale. I only envy the great Ezomyrian and Azmeri poets that came before me. For I may not endure the Cataclysm of my era.

"The Hero or Villain, depends on who you ask" It's also a common here in wraeclast. There is always a different perspective on how you name things. Solaris and Lunaris twins sisters or Solerai and Lundara, gold and silver as my folk says... I wonder what people will say, in years from now, about Empire, Puritans and Thaumaturgists. The inevitable? Or just differents colors on a spectrum. Maybe all this is just sand, vast deep sea of gray.

There are always those who try, and then do reshape the world in theirs mad, corrupted vision. Oh why, are those always the warriors, "conquerors", or the wealthy. It leaves me thinking what would've been, if instead of Chitus, Victario had ascended throughout the trials. Although the goal itself is not always everything, for I know what happened to Veritania. The measures are...

Tribes of Vastiri do not seek wisdom in words, but rather in survival, for which reason I do not hold grudge. I comprehend reasons of my banishment. It unrests people to remember. In a way, now, I live life of a scavenge and pilgrimage, a life which my people would be proud of. However I am not. I should focus on bringing change. I started experimenting on the device. If it can be fed with maps, why not frescoes and scripts... More attempts are surely required. Maybe if I could only harness the power of virtue gems not only for destruction, but creation as well. If it only would've worked, maybe I could've paint and write the world anew.

I've always admired how cool and non one-dimensional are villains in PoE. I always liked to discover what makes them tick, while at the same time, stories were not intrusive to the gameplay. Much like narration from Dark Souls for example. So here it is me having fun and an attempt at designing some immersive villain-esque journal entries, hope you enjoy :D Cheers!
