We know very little about the undead, and I know less than most. After all, I wasn’t present with Prince Eric and Prince Dahr when they encountered them in the Other Realm, and they’ve told me precious little about their experiences there. I wish I had pressed them for more detail when I had the chance. I’ll eventually have to learn what I can from Princess Chari, for I feel in my heart that they are the enemy. If that isn’t the case, why would the gods have trained the young royals to fight them?

    Seventeenth of Learning 1142


    You want to level again?


    You need to start trusting me, Dahr. I only want what’s best for you.


    Is Eric hurt? Did he come to harm? If I allowed him to continue to attack, what do you think would have happened?


    What would it take, Dahr, for you to start trusting me?


    You’re not just a boy anymore, Dahr. You’re a Nexus. And you will change the world. In fact, it’s already begun.


    You need time to learn your class. Study the threads Dahr, and I’ll reward you with another level.


    I won’t do that, but he’s perfectly safe. In fact, in some ways, he’s never been better. You’ll be seeing him soon enough. Have patience.


    More like you and he will be going to the same place. Be happy, Dahr. Kalutu is busy recruiting.


    You may not realize it yet, but Lost Wisdom is growing by leaps and bounds.
