** The Guardian returns to Eris at the Tree of Silver Wings.
Eris Morn: Well done, Guardian. I will interpret the Darkness’s messages as best I can. Although this particular form of communication is… logographic, composed of evocative glyphs. Metaphors, really. For example, this message… this word could mean “protected,” but it is loaded with subtext. These are connotations of blithe authoritarian forces, unshakable in their faith. The translation “sheltered” would not be sinister enough. Perhaps… “gelded?” Clearly, the Darkness does not believe the Traveler to be as benevolent as we do. Continue your efforts. We have much to learn.
