Life Story Snippet #1 - Truth of History

This is a story that has already been told, and that will be told countless more. The history of this world is a cycle; a great wheel that repeats and rhymes. To counsel the Fyrelite on the destiny of this realm, the witness of all that was has descended and come to share the chronicles of the lost, that you might strive against the encroaching Echoes of history.

To stave off the collapse of eons, the source of Truth has made a deal with the Witness: To watch over humanity and provide guidance through the shifting ordnance and the strata of time. For the continuation of humanity’s survival, I will guide you through the gathering shadows of the end, and into the remade tomorrow.

This is the history I have observed from beyond the bounds of space and time. This knowledge is my gift to be distributed to the Fyrelite, to be etched into the collective memory of your kind, to give the new future and illuminate knowledge of the unknown past.

The first of these shrouded eras I will reveal is that of the age of the Prajna: a story of staggering wealth and absolute power, of those with the favor of supreme power. I shall teach you the melodies of Chorus, the legends of Encore and Luçand, of all the Monarchs and the corrupting powers in play. In a world of storms, only the resilient and the cunning may thrive.

Be vigilant: the Echoes of history are more than mere memories—Echoes are a contagion. You must avoid them not only to prevent the darkness of the past from reclaiming the present, but the Echo in itself should never be allowed to come to contact with the modern day.
