Narration
Some call this place “Tel'aran'rhiod," or simply—“Dream."
I can sense the presence of the other six, each employing different methods to continue their lurking behind the curtain, pulling the strings.
Yet they remain arrogantly convinced that things are unfolding according to their imagined scripts.
But that hasn't mattered for centuries—the dice have long been cast, and high-level chaos manifests in the pure randomness of superstring waves, its unpredictability being its very essence.
My remaining mission is to be a witness to the story, observing and recording it all.
Though unnecessary, I still tilt my head back and sing the Song of the Dragon aloud, following the habits of the physical world.
“Seven sins combined, the prologue rises;
Five gather, the lights up.
Under the witness of the stars, the traveler shall embark on a quest.
Fabricated truths, misguided missions, imitative oaths, blind insights, and the dim blue dot.
Who will fall, who will rise?
Is it to be trapped in the past, or to forge the future?
Will regret consume all until nothing remains, or will hope guide everything towards transcendence?
The only ultimate answer to all great questions is—
'Me.'"
