Page 1: Observations
"The fate of such who sought the barter with demons for exemption from death, yet were found by the Reaper all the same. Their souls filled with dark energies, they are cursed to live another life, a half-life, as punishment. To add to their torment, the dark energies within them slowly devour their being, causing endless pain. And so people speak of these tortured souls, these dead bones, with pity, relieved that their fate is theirs alone."

Page 2: Mysteries of the Ancients
"Why did the ancients perish? Given what we know of their strength and power as a race, it is difficult to fathom. The level of technology and magickal potency exhibited by their relic are, in many way, far superior to our own. So, why did they die? Could it be that, for all our preparations, a similar fate awaits us? To solve this riddle, it is imperative that we study what ancient bones are left to us, and thereby shed light upon a past which may predict our future."
