Where to begin...
Last night I had my vision, Master Klembor met me at the sacred garden amongst the moonpools. Once there he instructed me to drink a red fluid from a glass vial he produced. Blood; the taste of copper was strong on my tongue. I was told to meditate by the moonpools, he would not tell me for how long, the ritual would take as long as it pleased. Many a monk has waited in the sacred garden, indeed many have waited days in meditation. Fortunately for me it did not take that long, after many hours the world around me became silent as if I was in my own demiplane. In the pool in front of me I saw the faint visage of a figure, a silhouette. As I scrutinised the image further, the figure became more detailed adding shape, colour and facial features. Blue skin; deer antlers; big nose, the face of an old man unlike anyone I have ever seen. I then saw the world around him: great plains; a blue sky and scaled creatures. These were lizards, large ones, some nimble and fast others colossal and powerful. One man living amongst beasts. The vision then took a different turn. I fell into the moonpool, at least I think I did. The water drew me deeper, far deeper than I know the pool to be. I was so deep I could no longer see the surface when I lost consciousness. When I awoke I was dry, on cobbled stones, the sky a pale orange. I was within the shell of a structure, some kind of chamber, broken statues and glass littered the floor around me. At the end of the chamber in front of me there was the statue of a dragonborn. I recognised the face, Irema, the founder of our order. I then recognised the architecture of the chamber, this was a monastery, not any I'd seen before but perhaps one of our other ones lost to time. I remember reading of our order's fall, many of our buildings abandoned and desecrated. It seems logical enough that this was one of them. Beyond the walls, I took a walk where I found several more, not just buildings but structures cut into the mountains and caves predating any of the ones I have read about. I cannot remember how many I walked through before finally waking. I was in my bed though it was not like waking from a dream. The things I saw... they were far too vivid and real to be that, no this was my epiphany for my task to complete. I shall meet with the masters soon to discuss where this puts me with my journey. This is all very fast and my mind throbs with the strain.
