Quotations

  • "I am a channel for this knowledge, but the best I can understand, [the Vestiges] are old relics of the War of the Divergence. Leading into the Penance, the Second Spark. These were armaments. Objects of great power that were used in these wars against the gods, good and dark. Many have been buried, entombed, lost, forgotten. The few that are recovered are passed on through blood lines, through symbols of power and of seats of great political importance. But the actual information is lost to me."
