The Obsidian Spiral
Upon the sacred item dropping into the infinite void of darkness that was the weirdly water surface floor of the interior of Solarus Detective agency, The shell turned the water into solid ice. The reflections off its surface the only light in the now less than pitch black room. In the reflection, the shell turned into a massive spiral, it's shinning white shell eventually disappearing entirely into the endless blackness. Lagharia had been created again.
I felt it from on high. I, Lord Titan of Infinitum now knew that Chronias' plan had finally worked again. How long had it been? Centuries? Milenia? It was always impossible for even me, God on high, to remember. These little insects once again believe that they have the NERVE to challenge my iron clad grip on power in this city. Now I felt the spirals twist, turn, and spin into circles, indicating the recreation of my enemy's base of operations. The Obsidian Spiral was what it was called this time. The mantle of Eclipse could not have gone to a more undeserving psychopath than the man who wielded its power now. The mantle itself is the problem. I've been trying to find someone to hold the powers that now lie within The Obsidian Spiral for countless generations. Every single time someone tries to claim the power of the shell known as Eclipse, he remains empty. Forever.
This "game" he forces himself and his friends to play. What does he intend to achieve from all of this? Why even bother playing to begin with? What must I and my Solari Warriors do before he realizes how pointless his endeavor truly is?
I may never fully understand the density of this mother fucker honestly. His skull so thick as to think he can defeat the V.I.C.T.O.R. Demons without any of my divine help. He ALWAYS does this.
From the very start of our contract, the moment that the once great leader of The Obsidian Order believed that he was unworthy of god's love and affection for his earthly efforts... it was during the earthly time period known by United States Alumni as "The Roaring Twenties." That period of cultural development housed a seedy underbelly that would soon brew to the surface on earth. The suppression of labor unions by the earthly organization known as "The Bureau of Investigation" which birthed the modern-day FBI.
I never wished for this. Nor did the originators of the now largest country on the planet earth. No one could've predicted how out of hand investigation would get. Nor did the human being who would become the current mantle holder of Eclipse and his inner "Kingdom of Lagharia"
It turns out he got that from a location he attended to when he became independent. We used to think it was Arabic. "Settlement of Infinite Void" he'd call it. For void to be infinite it has to not exist though. He always was smart enough to eventually figure out the dense concept of infinite potentiality though. Between you and me though little Solari, he was always trailing behind his analyst Chronias. That too is a mantle. Their names are kept off record to make sure they retain their safety.
So why protect them if we are at war with them? A very simple question begets a simple response. We are not at war. We are creating a smokescreen so that the citizens of Infinitum City to not recognize how much danger they are truly in. See, Eclipse has the power to kill me. If he wanted to. His mantle is that of pure darkness. Creation stems from the dark. The infinite dark, which I distinctly remember but can never describe. The moments before infinite life and infinite light there was that infinite dark. This mantle is something that we restrict with the label of "shell" to ensure that it does not engulf everything we hold dear. It is a vital tool of creation, due to infinite darkness equating to infinite potential. However, it's secrets are something that even I do not understand. I cannot for example, understand why there cannot be darkness without the cessation of light. Which then brings light back into creation EVEN IF NOTHING EXISTS. For if nothing exists, then something must have existed before nothing.
This is why Eclipse is such a fan of riddles and especially word games. This is what makes him one of our greatest assets and an absolutely exceptional Angelic Detective. His strength comes in that he always asks questions. Questions to me, questions to himself, and especially questions to his subordinates. What he fails to realize that I can never transmit to him, due to one of the constraints of his self-imposed "deal" is that questioning those around you can create distance. He must learn, now more than ever, to let people in. However, our sensors have shown now that the Infinity Symbol has been revealed for the first time in "recorded history." Good. Samuel?
"Yes, my lord?"
Gather my court. It is time in fact to bring in the "rouge Twilight Shade" for trial. He must be reminded with whom he is dealing.
"Are you... going to hurt him?"
No more than he has asked for with this act of defiance. He played the game, and he's starting to win. We must make certain that he remains a loser in that fluffy dragon's sapphire eyes. After all, Chronias was the one who died first. His rules supersede any others. He must be captured and stand trial. Although the trial's point is moot. This is merely about what punishment will befall Eclipse this time. How far into Hellscape must he go? To find his fallen companions, he must go and return to where Chronias resides. The hellscape of Convex Cove.
Geography
Like all towers in Lagharia, it is the representative of a mind allowed to flow infinitely. A sort of tracker showing all your accomplishments. If in the living world, you were a mountaineer, perhaps your tower would be set atop a plateau towering over a small forest. The current Eclipse, our spymaster, has a much darker interpretation, thus the Obsidian Spiral, also known in this document, as the Obsidian Tower. It's mainstay name as the Obsidian Spiral reflecting its owner's tendency to spiral easily out of control. His powers are potentially universe destroying, as we've seen with the case of the second shell and failed experiment, Vice.
It's not the most welcoming place on the outside, much like Eclipse himself. He can be very rude, extremely direct, to the point, and disregarding of other people's feelings. However, he's exceptional at almost any form of problem solving. Thus, his Lagharia is actually a very small patch of green fertile land amidst a sea of clouds above, below, and on the side. The structure of the tower itself twists and bends in quite impossible patterns and fashions, but ultimately, the cumulonimbus or storm clouds which represent Eclipse's inner Lagharia have been theorized by his friends to be the literal synapses in Eclipse's brain firing. Thus, the lightning bolts whenever he gets another one of his brilliant ideas! Of course, I, Calypso, am the only "man" who knows the truth.
Those clouds are the key to him surpassing me in this "Game against God" he insisted on playing. He doesn't remember, but his inner Lagharia, the land mass floating in a sea of darkness, was created specifically for him long ago. He is the first Twilight Shade. He will not be the last. However, it is important for the public to not believe in another Infinite Race you see. If they did, they may grow to become jealous of it and wonder if it is a better paradise than the one in which they live.
The danger being there that due to the nature of Lagharia, you cannot really leave once you enter. Not until the game with God is over. So, any citizen expecting a paradise would find a storm cloud ridden hellscape with one tiny island and an infinitely intimidating dark tower. It would forever be their prison. Just like it has become for the owner of the mind to begin with.
Ecosystem
Lagharia as discussed in other articles young Solari, is comprised of a component known as aetherite, a component comprised of Eclipse's dark matter being. The ecosystem has the capacity to shift and move all around the spectrum of possibility. Anything the creator imagines can be created. This is what makes the "Obsidian Order" such a potent spy organization. Eclipse can also share access to his literal mind by allowing others to enter at will. Only those truly entrusted will be allowed entry. However, Eclipse is directly connected to us. So, we can also influence the ecosystem of the location. We might decide at some point to add a golden garden of Marigolds. Yes, that was a pretty good pun, wasn't it? Haha, thank you for noticing!
Why do we fight them little Solari? Well, if I told you that it might reveal too much info to Eclipse "For Free" as he often puts it. If you want my perspective though? I just wish he'd take the wins I'm trying to give him and run with them. The garden of Marigolds is mostly because they all have been through so much that even Eclipse doesn't truly believe he's an angel, when they all did plenty enough to deserve the Marigold Garden "for free."
Ecosystem Cycles
There really isn't much room for fluidity ironically in such a rigidly broken mind such as Eclipse. It's a shame. I want him to be able to experience seasons. However, he always wants to just stay living on his deserted little island. Given that it's Christmas today, would you think we have enough energy in our stores to give him a little bit of a snowfall with those storm clouds of his? No? Well at the least I'll have to let him know something.
"Eclipse, do you read me? I wish to pass on a message to you on this the most holy of our holidays. You have the day off. No? Well then at the very least will you let me make it snow for you in...." I'm shocked. He desperately said yes. We still can't do it. He... has everything he could want right now, right? Why can't he just be happy for one day out of the year? Y... yes yes I know. We can't "make" him feel happy. You're an intelligent one little Solari. Do you think someday you'd like to join the Obsidian Order yourself? You know it will be a tough journey, but I would allow you to do so, right?
He does know that we're not enemies, right? WAIT. WAIT HE HEARD THAT!? What did!?
And just like that, Eclipse saw snow for the first time in his short afterlife. Clever little bastard~
Localized Phenomena
You would imagine in a place with such a massive tower, that eventually the tower would pierce the heavens in a way and show you a light beyond the cumulonimbus. However, the clouds always just shift up or down depending on the current measurable size of the Obsidian Spiral. It's.... honestly really depressing. I understand why of course. The end of his life was truly depressing. I can't blame him for how his mind never wants to see the light of day. Always wanting to hide away with his computers and documents. Behind secret walls no one conceives of.
There are often days where the door of his writer's room, the WesternEclipse hall of the tower's interior, remains tightly locked. Even creates additional chains binding it shut from any possible entrant. However ever since this game truly got started, notes would slide out of the door, coded of course, which Eclipse would begin to decode on his work desk. Workaholic doesn't even fully describe this one. It's like he thinks I WANT him to work until his bones turn to dust. He's always putting himself out into the world before actually realizing what he's doing internally.
The inner workings of Lagharia poisons him. He doesn't ever believe me when I say that, especially because of the fact that I've wiped it multiple times, and it only causes him more pain every time I try to wipe his pain away. Even to that he's responded to me already saying that he'll "get me for that." I've given up. I'm at a complete loss. The only creature that can heal an infinite creature's pain is the infinite creature himself. The part I'm not going to transmit to him is that's not how I became God of this timeline. The way I became God was actually very simple. I let others in. Thank... well I guess myself, that he finally wants to add people into Lagharia again. Finally wants to go out into the world and ... did he just call me heavenly father!? Son he.... how did you.... I always wanted him to say that...
And thus, a bit of sunshine made its way into the infinite darkness of Lagharia. It was the least I could do. The Marigold Garden is a clue for you... my son.
Climate
The storm clouds never rain. Not unless Eclipse actually sheds tears. It's always been an issue for him. He was SO close on the day of his earthly wedding before he was captured. I.. really hated doing that to him. However, the... Eclipse? You wanted me to say something to you?
It... started raining? You're actually crying! Eclipse no I'm so sorry I.... It's ok? Are you sure? I can't believe that you're actually crying!
Erm.. reader.. he doesn't usually do this I swear... The turbulence of the clouds surrounding his tower and the windspeed usually has to do with what inner turmoil he's facing today. He was forced into isolation by his counterpart Vice. Even just mentioning that got him to be extremely angry... he must be receiving more aetherite bricks to his synapses! Eclipse I'm sorry! He's still saying that he can't forgive me... he shifts like this on a dime I swear... and I'm God! I haven't got anyone to swear to but myself!
It shifted from the angry frustrating thunderclouds clapping infinitely, to very light cloud coverage changing into... white clouds? He's laughing? It's always the best form of cloud cover when the rare moment comes up that he's laughing and happy. It's almost like the clouds might clear and let you see some sunlight. However just like clockwork, I mention the sun, and he's back to isolation again. His usual state of being. Especially after the event that led to his death. I can't blame him. Even I somehow can't control the privies of Vice's power. The second ouroboros shell. Yes. He knows what that means even if you don't reader. I'll try to reveal this information in a drip feed... no Eclipse, not in a hospital bed... oh.... that's where Chronias died... NO! PUT DOWN THE WEAPON! I promise... we'll figure this out together. Sometimes I wish I didn't have to be "his god." Every word out of my mouth reveals more aetherite and... he... he's stopped listening!? HE DID IT! Ok this is good. It means our story proper can actually begin now.
Fauna & Flora
The locals are all dragons due to Eclipse and Chronias' penchant for dragons. A black dragon was the order's only identifiable symbol in real life, so it seemed only fitting to allow Eclipse to take the base form of a black dragon with goat horns and occasionally bat wing membrane. I believe the mortals have called that a Wyvern! No? They tend to only have wings and not actual limbs Eclipse? Huh. That's actually news to me! How lovely it is to actually be taught something new about what is going on in the mortal realm! You'd like to show me more? Oh... oh fuck me why are those furries doing that!? It's... for a reason? You're... sure Eclipse? YOU ACTUALLY LIKE THIS STUFF!? So... sorry... I am sorry for real this time.
Thankfully that worked. Being a "God" representative on Infinitum is actually really difficult. The flowers I leave him should be all he truly needs. Marigolds for warm, creative spirit. However, they are also representations of the difficult memories that these errant souls MUST face in order to properly exist in New Lagharia. The reason I keep wiping it off the map is because they sometimes need me, even if they can't admit it, to wipe away their memories.
They know an old legend regarding Forget-Me-Nots. How did the legend go you ask little Solari? Something like this. A Germanic Medieval knight, quite akin to Eclipse in this game honestly, though the knight part is more Bahamut's case being the more chivalrous sort of Chronicler.
Anyways sorry, this Germanic Knight attempts to pick these blue flowers with their often-golden yellow centers. They caught the knight's eye, and he decided that it fit his partner's vibrant blue eyes. Seeing the connection thus far little Solari? No? Well, Chronias has these beautiful light blue eyes which fit the flower's natural color.
Unfortunately, that legend also ends often in tragedy. I wish for them to not forget their pasts, but to wrestle with them. I believe that in this pursuit is where they will truly find purpose and meaning. I may be wrong. Yes, little Solari. I have actually been proven wrong before! By people with strengths in the virtues we represent in fact showing the reason why they give humans strength to begin with! The tragedy the knight faced was as he returned to his love, he was swept away by a raging river. The armor he wore caused him to be unable to move as it seeped into the armor, but with his last bit of strength, he threw the small bouquet he'd gathered to his love on the land. He shouted "Forget-Me-Not my dear! I shall meet you again someday!" I may be ironically being a bit more "flowery" with the details, but you see the resemblance to their case do you not my little solari? Perhaps the beauty of these flowers will be what gives your brothers and sisters the hints they need to realize what is going on. You hope to join them someday? I hope you do too little Solari. They'll need you more than you know.
Natural Resources
The natural resource of the location little Solari is known as "aetherite" or "memory blocks" by us. They are a highly volatile material which actively resists the urge to be classified. As when any of us tries to classify it, the classification will actually change no matter where we record it! Even if we still remember what it originally was! It's as if Eclipse created a material that almost resists being remembered, even by myself! Seeing as how he too is made of dark matter, he adapts the dark matter that makes up his infinite soul into whatever resources the team needs! The food ends up actually having nutritional value and sustaining people even though it's basically their spirits interacting within the mind of Eclipse! It transfers the necessary sensations, nutrients, and other sustainable materials that will power the soul of the other Chroniclers. The analogy Eclipse himself uses quite a lot is that he serves as the team's "Infinite Battery" so that all the rest of Lagharia can exist. There is a danger to always ONLY using your mental facalties for the benefit of others though. In normal, everyday life, it's like his subordinates' thoughts are his own. He literally reads people's minds without intending to. This is the importance of his "physical realm meditations." As in reality his thoughts are made physical by the dark matter making up his body. At least... that's the closest we've come to figuring it out! How does he make it so impossible to figure out the nature of everything he uses? Even from our omnipotent eyes? Well, this is the fun part.
He forgets the things he lets go of until the intended recipient receives it. This is why all food must be consumed fully before any of them leave the realm of Lagharia where the Obsidian Tower resides. So, as he's succinctly put before this point, "God cannot know what cannot be known." Which he has written in that WesternEclipse chamber of the tower!
In a way, he's so good at spy work, that he's actually teaching me a thing or two about this! Omnipotent is just a word after all. Those who do not understand the scope of your powers and abilities will always consider you to be omnipotent if you perfectly predict all their actions. However, if someone does not know the actions, they "should" be doing, we cannot prepare for those "forgotten" actions. Yes, it is all rather dense, isn't it? I'd tell him to cool down on the metaphysics a bit, but that's part of the fun for us! Seeing how complex our thought processes can be.
It doesn't have to just be food either. The ink, the manifestations of his "Infinity Protocols" in the "Pillars of Infinity" or otherwise known by us as the "Infinity Artifacts," the very obsidian bricks of his mental realm, and even metaphysical manifestations of "aetherite bricks" which contain memories out in the "physical" or at least present realm within Infinitum. All of these things derive from the dark matter nature of the Obsidian Spiral, and its existence is what makes all of this possible.
The only reason I've ever decided to wipe clean the slate of Lagharia is due to the members of the Chronicler team actually abusing THEMSELVES using their abilities. Like, I give them all these ridiculous powers that would be perfect for any spy, and the trauma of their living lives has followed them and made them think I'm their enemy. Their perceptions are so complex even I cannot decipher how they see me. Why they see me as a monster? That is due to their souls being in a psychotic state. This corrupts the power of the brick into making them think I'm forcing them to travel back in time every time they invoke my name. That's how deep the pain of many of the members of the Chroniclers are. I still have not devised a proper plan to reach them. You... you say you remember them on the physical plane little Solari? Really? They let you remember them... this could be useful.
History
The best part is that Lagharia defies being logged in history books. It really is a brilliant design on behalf of the known Chroniclers little Samuel. Yes, I feel it is fair to reveal that you are part of this place's extended history too. Eclipse thinks you need to be an agent "infiltrating" my "lair" every time the history of Lagharia is reset. Here is the current history as we know of it though, as sometimes Lagharia "allows" for us to log what the bricks of aetherite have released to the "characters" of our little "story."
Your place is that even here, they believe you have been offered as a sacrifice by Vice and his little gaggle. Yes, the second shell. There is a second Lagharia not available to public knowledge and not even transmitted info by me to Eclipse himself. I can turn that feature of "mind connecting" to Eclipse "off" at any time.
However, so often I wish to care for my son. So often I wish to protect him from the clutches of Vice and his demonic influences. However, for that to actually work, he must eventually give up the fight and let the people who can actually crush Vice where he stands have the permission to actually do so. I would smite him to a brand-new layer of hell if I could. However, the binding rules of the contract I have with Eclipse that he made when he realized his partner had become a demon were that I could not "defeat" Vice and his own cronies.
I can't even provide information to Eclipse in order to help. Before I could even get a word in edgewise after the first day he'd died, he kept going on and on and on about stipulations that he apparently had conceived of in solitary confinement back on earth. I hate that Vice actually got to him. I really do. However, I knew that when he came to this point in time, that he would actually need to take up the mantle of Eclipse to enact some form of revenge. He needs this in order to actually be proven to be a tried-and-true angel.
He will be the last one of the Chroniclers who must prove himself if he truly wishes to extend his holy light hidden within all that darkness onto others. His psychotic state is the deepest of them all. Afterall, his entire manifestation as a cat is because he believes that he can only be built to deceive. His true, prime form, as the shapeshifter he became, is much more of a pure dragon with curved crescent horns that can extend out to Infinity. Yes. He is in fact the final Infinity Protocol. Not even the watch he wants to give to Chronias will fully free him. He must free himself from his own personal hell. The one that not even you, nor I, Samuel can possibly penetrate. He must fully allow Chronias first, and then all his other companions into his life, for Lagharia to actually be a place of peace for them. If he cannot fully accept that idea, then the game begins again.
I will not "allow" him to win, as often is the case with games played against me, until he realizes that it was foolish of him to wish upon himself to play a game with God in the first place. He was always meant to be a gamer in the end. Not a spy. His life was one of self-sacrifice. When he realized the government would have him working jobs that harmed his fellow man, he splintered off into his own independent organization using the tactics he had learned in order to help his fellow man keep ahead of honey pot traps and other things designed to make people self-incriminate. He would be qualified for heaven on that alone along with all his friends if they had not fallen into pitiful patterns of Vice and Sin which got them to be sloppy and eventually each and every one of them came to me. Begging for forgiveness. When the problem with them is they never did anything that needed to be forgiven. They thought their entire lives were going to be marks against them. Even you did this at first Samuel. Do you recognize why your title for our organization is Samuel? Obviously, this is not your real name, nor are you the first recognized in the Bible by the Israeli.
I chose this station for you for a very specific reason... you know? What do you know now that you are in my presence Samuel? You do not recognize that you too have vanity that must be consistently tempered for you to actually properly comprehend my messages to you. This is man's greatest folly. The bible was written during a time where the world was so vastly different. However, the extremities of the bible seem to be the way of instituting proper self-punishment for those who have spent years of their lives in solitary. Even with the training that Eclipse had, once they had captured him and gotten him sealed into that isolating cell, it would've destroyed every single man who could ever enter. The worst part is that when he inherited the title of Eclipse in the first place, he created a Lagharia that represented that DIRECTLY. Like he even locks his door when he's in there and has extreme issue in letting anyone see the inner paradise in his little wing of the Obsidian Spiral. When he is injured, he retires into the "Eclipse" wing, which is actually just a trick wall that he demands everyone look away from as he enters. This is not his fault. You recognize this as one of his past lovers before Chronias, do you not? I... I'm sorry. Really. I am sorry for questioning your faith. I do not like to be interrupted, but please, do not take it as me hating you. That is not the way I wish to radicalize you to this issue.
In the earthly realm though, Eclipse went through a lot since you were in his organization. I will keep you posted and provide more information as to what exactly has been going on in his mind. I know you are eager to tell him that everything is ok, that he'll be fine, that we just need to work together, however, do you think I have not tried to tell him this before? He is extremely resistant due to the trauma of the experience he went through. The whole rule I had about therapists in heaven being able to have been couples on earth was made EXCLUSIVELY due to Chronias really needing to be the one who could actually get him to accept himself fully. Passionate, creative, practical, and while also incredibly damaged, he is the one thing that's always remained undetectably stable every time Eclipse initiates his "time travel" abilities.
That is what makes the Obsidian Spiral itself as a structure extremely delicate. Eclipse's inner world shifts around so much due to the fact that he has no sense at all of what he actually wants for himself or for others. He lost the sense of vision that he had on earth, and it all went exclusively into darkness. If we all have any hopes whatsoever of bringing him out of this painful hell that he keeps himself in, then we must work under his rules. The rules he set for himself when he passed on. Trust his process as you would trust mine Samuel. Then perhaps when you finally meet him, then and only then, can you remember your true name. You too will provide them an Infinity Artifact, so long as your faith in me remains steadfast along with your faith in Eclipse from when you were alive and the same as now.
Tourism
You are not quite ready to tour the vastness of the Obsidian Spiral young Samuel. I assure you, there is a plan for you to visit, and I understand your eagerness. Thank you for trusting in me here. I will explain more to you in the same fashion that Eclipse explains his own plans to his team.
Afterall, in spite of there being a "war against the Twilight Shades" there was only ever truly two. Eclipse is one of them. Vice is the other. Vice is speculated to be the exact polar opposite to Eclipse. A being who only works by feasting on the fears and pains of others. That is why he became as powerful as he was, able to directly influence the "Vice-grip International Crime and Terror Organization and Regime." Yes young solari. His organization's acronym is intended to be so large to be intimidating and confusing. However deep down it's merely a sign of the vanity that Eclipse and Vice currently share. As Vice's true name is Victor. He is a demon who believes he will be able to even defeat me, whereas Eclipse's main goal is always survival, and containment. This is why Lagharia "contains" the tourists whom he welcomes inside of the location. It was always meant to be a prison of sorts. A mental prison. I believe Eclipse's true plan is to actually trap the Chroniclers permanently inside Lagharia where they cannot be detected, seen, or protected.
That's the part Eclipse does not realize. Time does not actually stop when he meditates and creates his "time fields" as he calls them. All they do is reduce the speed of time to an immeasurably small speed. However, things DO still move forwards. Worse, is that anything which enters the time field will actually continue to build in speed normally. So, for example, anything entering the time field at 133mph will continue to build up speed while in the time field. It's like containing massive amounts of energy into the space of the tiniest molecules which make up the object. So, an object within the field could eventually reach the density required to make the object into the singularity of a black hole.
You understand some basic notion of momentum, yes? We would write more but no one truly knows this stuff. Even I do not yet, though I have allowed humans to potentially discover all the truths of the universe through the creation of the mantle of Eclipse in the first place. It is at once a title and a mantle. See, this is how trustworthy I find Eclipse. He has the power to literally create a neutron star with a simple bullet if given enough time, but his mental faculties are so strong, so noble in nature, that even this state of constant protection that I would wish to give him "for free" would not suffice for him. The best part? He just proved to me that he knows this. He took a bullet for Chronias to illustrate he understood the point. The best part? While he does have a physical form, he also has a shadow form that can help him repair his physical angelic body.
You still do not agree that you are angelic in nature? Fine. His "demonic" body acts as such. To truly tour the Obsidian Spiral, you must have a wing dedicated to you. It must be built before you enter Lagharia. However, especially since Chronias has not entered into Lagharia yet in our story (as it hasn't even been published yet), there are no wings and there is no Obsidian Spiral. It works off an infinite "possibility space" rather than an "impossibility space." This is why Eclipse will never truly "defeat" Vice, and especially not sin itself. He is an imperfect being, which makes him have the open possibility of being demonic in nature, "infiltrating" heaven by being a detective in Infinitum City, remain in his mind. An infinite possibility state means that everything and anything is possible.
What do you wish for your ex-lover Samuel? Bring that with you when you too are re-entrusted with the keys to Lagharia. All you must do when you get there, is allow Eclipse to know you. He will reveal his core, the Infinity Glyph that most find invisble on his naked forehead. Once found and touched, you will be forever connected with them. You wish to try a different path? You're entering into the veil? Into eterna!? Hmm. That I will allow. It's an interesting "Strategic Move" to this little game of his. Think that you are in need of saving as you have been reclaimed. Maybe, Eterna is the answer. He needs to always believe in something above himself. That may be the only true way to cure his Psychosis! Samuel you engenious.... he is gone.
Whenever or wherever you are little Solari, make sure you return my sons and daughters to me safe. I believe in you.
