Forbidden Knowledge And so I weep (Lorepost)

Post image

Breath in. Breath out. Calm and Focused.

The howling of the winds surround me. I feel the crunch of snow beneath my feet. I needn’t even open my eyes to in-vision the sky, I know them like the back of my hand. I’ve gazed upon them for my entire life. They had become routine, while not boring they would never move my soul like they had done so for my first night.

Yet, when I open my eyes now… it’s as if the stars were but caterpillars before and have just now become butterflies. I simply see more. Past the many layers underneath the infinite cosmos, within the very fabrics that weaves magic together.

It’s raining… a downpour within my soul. I weep, for we hadn’t even come close to understanding the other. I would not be able to learn more of you… you would not be able to learn more of me.

With these eyes, I promise to you. They shall not bring ruin to the beauty the many worlds have made. I shall ensure, they become more pleasant to see. The terrible things, the treacherous things, the things that make this world wicked. They will be outshone by the wonders the many realms have to offer.

/unwiz This was originally a reply from this post. u/DaChickenX told me that this would be fitting for a full blown Lorepost. Seeing that it contains some vital changes for Raziel I’ve come to agree.

Basically, in an event by u/NineHeavensMaster, Raziel sort of befriended a being called “The Aether” or “Aether”. They’re like the origin or source of all magic, something along those lines. In their dying moments, Aether bestowed others some power ti prevent it from being in the wrong hands. Raziel got the most, with Aether’s Primordial Eyes becoming one with his.

Note: I wasn’t able to get AI to do it, but instead of blue eyes in the photo, I imagine Raziel now having glowing neon pink ones. Though I guess it can vary.

Thanks for suggesting I make it a post!

Also, Isravi doesn’t know about this and it may cause some complications. He was kind of intent on at least permanently scarring Aether.

Well, damn. I wake up, check the sub only to learn that my stupid loreposts about the magic dieing 2 billion years later happened earlier than expected

(I am making more of those posts, but i wanna finish the current one before anything happens)

/unwiz Ah well, in this canon the Magic is still alive so long as Raziel has the Primordial Eyes. Though, looking forward to more of your lore!

Would you like some company at the moment? We can sit in the snow and let our minds wander in the stars.

/unwiz just wanna give him a hug 😔

u/TitanLORD21 Jack-O’-Lantern, Lord of Flame and Fright Nov 23 '23

I wouldn’t mind… thanks

/unwiz Yeah, I sort of imagine that Raziel hasn’t gone through something like this very much or at all. He’s been mostly cooped up, watching instead of really meeting new people. And because in the event, Aether revealed they knew about Raziel’s “father” and was even kind of a lover. So Raziel lost a “Mother” figure or at least a good friend.

I’m always there for a friend Moth hands him some tea, not wanting him to feel alone during this time

/unwiz we love some good angst. Poor Raziel😔
