I advise that you drop this book at once. Whatever you are looking for, know that you will not find it here. If you seek hope, know that I will only bring despair. If you seek a weapon, know that the price is far too steep. If you seek understanding, know that I can only offer more confusion. the creeping madness waits and watches.
Still, I have no power, no special charm to make you drop this book. If you insist upon perusing its pages, you will see what you were not meant to see, discover what never should’ve been discovered. Even if you fail to comprehend it, you will still know the truth. The truth changes everything. The truth makes all change nothing.
Believe me when I say that knowing is more than enough to ruin your life. Whether or not you peer beyond the vast gate for the meager powers I promise is for you alone to decide. Choose as you have always chosen.
- The introduction to the Codex Vesania, penned by Sion Ponure
To get an answer, start with a question. The question one must ask to arrive at the truth is shockingly simple.
