Arcanus Archives Entries.
AN ALCHEMICAL ACCOUNT OF MODERN MEDICINES, by Lois Settara
(This historical document, found on the second floor of the Arcanus Archives, is mostly intact. It is, however, very old, and shows its wear and tear in water damage that renders some areas of the passage unreadable.)
Hypnum Insomnis Cupressiforme (otherwise known as Nightmare Moss) was a species of plant that was once used as a sleep-inducing medicine, due to the flowers of and leaves of this plant producing powerful narcotic properties. This medicine was known as MintWhiler’s Sopite.
However, historians now know that Nightmare Moss was a direct cause of various tragedies throughout the history of Arcanus Isle. Including ——— —— . At the time, those who ingested MintWhiler’s Sopite did find that they were more quickly able to sleep soundly, but soon thereafter, it was clear for all to see that this new medicine was actually —— ——. Those who took the draught to help their insomnia progressively failed to gain the very sleep they had once gone to this medicine for. They reported an increase in nightmares and night terrors, and progressively acted more and more erratically the longer they took their required dose.
Those who doubled their doses in the hopes of rectifying their newfound inability to sleep would later report vivid hallucinations that afflicted their sight, hearing, and state of mind. While some would continue to only grow progressively more and more drowsy (reportedly sleeping in later and later despite outside interference), others grew despondent, showing a sharp increase in depressive moods, while others still became violent with strangers on the street, allegedly being followed and ‘attacked’ by the very people they themselves assaulted.
It quickly became apparent that the cause of these widespread afflictions was none other than the petals and pollen used in MintWhiler’s Sopite, But although the narcotic was swiftly discontinued and removed from alchemists shelves, the consequences of using MintWhiler’s Sopite would continue to become more and more apparent in rapid succession, making the medicine and the Nightmare Moss a direct, leading cause of —– ——— – terrors.

@epilvgue liked for a starter!
"Hey— check this out! I… got no idea what it's supposed to say. You got any luck?"
Regardless of whether they noticed or not, Charles has stopped probing the shelves of the Arcanus Archive for a while now, and spent the time squinting at a particular section instead, quietly grumbling to himself.
It took time until he'd finally call out to the other while gesturing at the blurred names that'd, usually, contain a name of a location.
"D'you think this could be an error or somethin'? I don't think this is just, like, bad eyesight on my part."

It was about time Loki made his way to this place. Arcanus Archives. Massive building ( nowhere near the scale of Asgards shelves ) full of information pertaining to this Aevum realm. He felt strangely at home in this place - he always preferred the company of books to the company of those around him. In truth, it had been much time since he had been able to simply study in peace.
After a brief discussion with the librarian of the establishment, Loki meandered his way to the second floor. His mission was to find information on this land, its peoples, and more importantly, its magic.
He was determined to find answers and restore what was rightfully his and his brothers. He figured it was in his best interest to understand the origins of this civilization. Certainly nothing new for the scholar. He was barely 400 years old when he had memorized the histories of the 9 realms.
Surely this venture would be nothing be peaceful.
He searched the titles among the shelves ( the young curious boy inside his mind was excited by the challenge, the unknown ) looking for a "History Of" specifically. He found a few books he figured he might start with, however, resting on a shelf nearby was one in particular that caught his fancy.
As he reached out to take it, he found he could not. Two pale hands lay upon the guided cover, both clothed in black, both unwilling to release.
Loki glanced at the person who had taken the object ( or rather, attempted to ) seeing a figure with blackened hair, red eyes ( bags underneath ), and clothed in ancient-styled clothes, not totally similar to his own. The man physically appeared to be older, but they seemed to stand off, eyes on the other. Unrelenting.
❝ Ah. I beg your pardon. ❞ Loki spoke first. ❝ But I'm afraid I require this book for my research. I must ask that you let go. ❞ His eyes cast upon it first.

They disbanded at the border.
Atsushi was the first to depart. Veering away to the west, he made for Bramble Step, a shadowy district of debauchery on the edge of the Tangled Wood. Sirius knew little of it, except that his grandfather held its proprietress in high esteem--and that Atsushi’s mate lived there.
“Good luck!” Atsushi called to the others, seemingly as an afterthought. “Try not to get yourselves killed; Dreamweaver doesn’t approve of resurrection!”
With that, it was as if the glue that had held them all together crumbled.
Yọmí and Almond turned toward Noon Point, with Xerxes setting a grueling pace ahead of them. Regular expenditure of his mismatched magic had ensured that the lightning within him remained weak, hardly more than a spark, for many eons. Now it was surging in great, looping coils all along his body as he sought the slightest trace of Lamium’s distinct presence.
Rue followed Juneau to the Sundown Spans. Her family was scattered, but it was here that she would find her mother, with any luck awake and well. From there, she would join Atsushi at Bramble Step, seeking her younger sister Morpha, and then continue on to Summerland’s Edge in search of Rubedo and his family. Finally, she would make the journey across the Continent, to Horizon’s Landing, and pray that Heaven, like their necromancer mother, was waiting to greet her.
(Atsushi hadn’t had the heart to remind her that he was a necromancer too.)
Juneau held little hope for his own family. Penitence was a dragon through-and-through, without the title of witch or magic beyond the Eleven’s control to safeguard him. He knew that his mate slept, and Artha likewise. Although she was not a dragon, had she been spared, she would have certainly come looking for him long before now.
In the end, only Tau and Asura remained steadfastly at Sirius’ side, but it was ultimately short-lived. Copernicus would be at Promenade Medical, with Haematica and their colleagues, and so the two of them bid a reluctant farewell.
So it was that Sirius found himself soaring over the Summerlands alone.
With his thoughts.
Try as he might to think only of Arcanus, he could not deny that there was another reason he had come to the Dominions. Their troubles with the Astrals had fascinated him from the very start. Since their appearance, something had been calling to him, some deep, ancient thing squirming in the furthest reaches of his mind. He had told his fathers of it, insisted that there was something that he could do, to no avail.
“All young dragons feel that way in a crisis,” Zo had informed him.
“The best place for us is here,” Junior had agreed.
Their smiles had been tight, hollow...
...false.
Never had he thought that they might hide even the most mundane of secrets from him. They had given him no reason to doubt their word, and their word had always made sense to him--how he had come to be their son, why he could never stray too near to the Seat, what had caused him to look so very different from his peers. Simple explanations. Safe.
So why did he feel like something was missing?
The Hall of Five Lights rose like a pale crown before him. As he spiraled down to land at its gates, he felt all at once fearful and hopeful. The remnants of powerful magic hung in the air, trapped, as those who had wielded it, in another time. He recognized Rebis’ unusual magical signature foremost, and recalling her peculiar relationship with time, stepped into the Hall half-expecting her to welcome him.
By the looks of things, a meeting of the Tribunal had been underway. Sirius had met many of the dragons present in passing; seeing them this way, unmoving, unchanging, was somehow far more unsettling than he’d imagined it would be. He examined them each in turn. There were no major injuries that he could see, though it appeared that poor Bestealcian had met with the business end of an Arcane blast. At least he could bring some good news home to his fathers.
Swallowing his grief, Sirius faced the drake he’d come to fetch last of all. Arcanus had changed. There was silver capping his right horn, and a hue to his eyes that was not his own. Foreign magic.
Rebis’ magic.
“What happened?” Sirius breathed, reaching shyly for Arcanus’ still hands. “Who did this to you? Why wasn’t I...?”
The Hall was silent, stale. Arcanus did not move. For a long while, neither did Sirius. He wondered, if he stood there long enough, if he might not slip into their time, into their sleep, and remain at Arcanus’ side. Rebis had been there all these eons, while he had played scholar in the archives. It should have been him.
He still wouldn’t have chosen you.
Sirius’s grip tightened. Then his hands fell away, and he stepped back. “I love you,” he said. “I thought that would be enough. I’m sorry that it wasn’t. When you wake up, I’ll tell you again. I have to tell you, because if I don’t, I won’t be able to accept that I never stood a chance. Until then, I’ll keep searching. If there’s a way to lift this spell, I’ll find it. I promise.”
It was time to go. He had lingered too long in a place not meant for him. A childish part of him wanted to kiss Arcanus then, because not even Rebis had been so lucky--but he was no longer a child. Instead, he allowed himself one final touch, the barest brush of his fingers across Arcanus’ knuckles, before turning to leave.
Only then did he notice the small, golden Gaoler at Rebis’ feet.
“You.”

Hello my dear magical friends!
I apologize for disappearing for these last few days. I got caught up with some personal stuff and didn’t have much time to hop onto social media.
I do come with good news though! While I am a little behind on answering asks, the same can’t be said for the game itself. I’ve made a pretty big dent in the writing portions of chapter 1-2 and have even managed to finish up a few of the outlines for the later chapters! Overall, we’re actually a bit ahead of schedule.
I’ll work on getting the remaining asks out as soon as possible - as well as try to be a bit more interactive with you all (even if it’s just through update posts like this 😅).
Have a wonderful rest of your day and as always thanks for your interest and support! It means the world to me.

Arcanus Archives Entries.
HISTORY OF THE ARCANUS ISLE, VOL. 1
A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE MASKED PILGRIMAGE.
During the earliest years of Arcanus Isle, fear and uncertainty ran rampant. Order was hard to come by as the Aercon of Arcanus Isle struggled to come together as one people. Chaos spread, and from this unrest, the Aether found itself thrust into the throes of one of its first cycles. This disquiet manifested as a ground-crawling plant that embedded itself deep into the earth of the isle, just as fear and unrest had embedded itself deep into the hearts of those who lived there.
This plant, soon to be known as Nightmare Moss, was first thought to be a blessing. Something to ease the nerves of those lucky enough to craft from its leaves and flowers, and put to slumber the uncertainties of the ‘morrow. This was quickly learned to not be the case, as sleeplessness led to the people of Arcanus Isle being subjected to horrific visions. These visions led to more violence, fear, and distrust among the Aercon, and all the while, the plant continued to spread, threatening to consume the Isle.
At the peak of the moss’ infestation came the appearance of The Sleep Crawler. What was once thought to simply be figments of addled minds soon proved to be very real, and very deadly creatures. The Sleep Crawler was a terrible creature that could almost always be spotted around the moss.
It would hunt its prey by targeting those afflicted by the moss. With the spread of the moss, which sprouted even in the skin and bones of those who consumed its leaves, flowers or pollen-spread, the Aercon were easily made prey for the Sleep Crawlers. Once consumed by the very nightmares that the moss wrought upon the mind, victims would indeed become consumed by the moss’ overgrowth. Paralyzed and drowsy from the moss’ effects, the Sleep Crawlers would then consume the spirit of any captured creature, leaving behind only a husk of flesh and blood for the moss to take.
The Guardians Four gathered the people of Arcanus and ushered them through the Whispering Highlands through the Pass. They hoped to harbor those who remained sane in the safety of the Murkwood Forest. However, it did not take long for the Nightmare Moss to follow them there as well.
Faced with great turmoil and the threat of extinction, it was then that the Aercon of old were called to look deeply within themselves. To fight fear is to know fear, and to choose courage. And so although those many dangers surrounded them, they were able to overcome the nightmares that threatened to consume them whole. It was this resolve that allowed the Guardians to stabilize the Aether, and drive back the moss and the Sleep Crawlers so that neither organism would traverse the earth of the Isle ever again.
Thus concludes the history of the Pilgrimage through the Passage of Masks.

(notice the chains around it’s neck - it’s from Circus Arcanus)
"According to Shen Yi Jing, Tao Wu is a tiger-like beast with a tiger’s feet, a man’s face and a pig’s teeth. Its hair is 2-3 meters long and it has a tail more than 315 meters long. It lives in the remote regions in the west.
Tao Wu is often used to label a man who is fierce and stubborn. As recorded in Zuo Zhuan 左传, a commentary on the Spring and Autumn Annals, there was a bad offspring of Zhuan Xu 颛顼 (one of the five great ancient emperors) who could not be taught. He was called Tao Wu.”
