Gaia
Hello reader. Perhaps I have lent you these pages as a favor or kindness or maybe you somehow finally found a way to destroy me "once and for all" (unlikely) and thus have pillaged my library and notes to take what you see as valuable from a dead magi. If the latter is the case; I'm coming for you. And you cannot stop me this time. Don't pray, The Gods won't hear you.
If it happens to be the former, then an introduction to this text is in order. Compiled in these scattered and half-completed notes are my musings and general knowledge of the world I call home. I have been alive for a long time, and have seen many things and heard many more. Achieving immortality does note ease one's conscious on death, and though I will likely see the final days when all the stars go out and the mountains crumble into the sea, the small part of me that is still human longs to put my experiences to paper. To share my findings with those who may deserve such knowledge and find it useful. While I chafe to say it, knowledge really is power, and forewarned against danger is forearmed. But more than that I long to tell the secret that I hold dear: Gaia is beautiful. This world that lays before me is beautiful. Despite its seeming mundanities and cruel machinations its elegance and unfoldment is nothing short of a Quanto-Magi miracle. A great secret I keep is that I stopped wondering about the existential nature of reality about 50 years ago. I know what I believe as a wizard, and I have to have faith that I am right. I'm not writing this to prove myself or my theories, that part of my life is...fading.
I digress. Once more,
The pages before you is a set of light reading on the material plane, general knowledge that I gathered in my long life. Written without purpose, so as you may find your own for it. Good Day.
