A Summit on Time

On the fourth of Chronos, nine hundred and seventeen years after the fall of the Seleucarian Empire, citizens and vagabonds from all walks of life gathered within the frozen library of Falaq'tor to discuss an ominous threat: a plague on Memory and the oddities surrounding the legendary Protean relics.

In the year building up to this summit, the mage-priestess Pryla'ari conducted a survey across Sapience with the intent to gather and centralise the varying recollections of mortalkind. Some participants rejected the very notion of Chief Inspector Wavel's placement in the Second Conclave Reckoning, while others held it true with the confidence of a script writ in stone. Even more disagreed on the Protean relics, clashing over arguments for and against their existence being mere myth.

The Fifth Seat of the Conclave delivered the results of her study, elliciting quick theories and a flurry of speculation from the crowd. As opinions were flung left and right, the tapping of a cane drew attention to a new arrival: the esteemed Chief Inspector Wavel El-Mellon Cloussoi the Third.

It took no time for the eccentric detective to begin analysing the evidence and proposing theories about egg-related disappearances and the architectural design of Falaq'tor - but even with the preposterous and seemingly-unrelated digressions, the Chief Inspector provided valuable insight and the ultimate conclusion of the summit.

It is not memory that is altered, or rather that memory alteration is a mere side effect. Someone has manipulated Time, and adventurers are remembering the memories of a prior timeline!

The relics of Proteus are being plucked out of the timeline, stolen away at some point in the past so that it seems like they never were with no care for the consequences.

Answers provide only more questions. Who is responsible? For what purpose? Is the freeing of Slith related? What damage will be done? When will it end? Will we even know?

Pryla'ari frowned, a worried look on her face. She concluded the summit and dismissed all present, for even an eminent scholar needs time to understand such a grim revelation.

Summary: Pryla'ari hosted a summit to discuss the recent events across Sapience. With the assistance of Chief Inspector Wavel El-Mellon Cloussoi the Third, the gathered adventurers concluded that the timeline has seemingly been rewritten and the Protean relics are being stolen away in the past. Many questions still remain unanswered.

Penned by My hand on the 22nd of Chronos, in the year 917 AF.
