==== The Elders ====
* Kassandra
* Kreon
* Auxentios
Kassandra was the founder of Vimata, its first elder, and the first acolyte of the Great Serpent. Kassandra's role as elder ended when she disappeared.
Kreon was the second elder of Vimata, who stepped up to lead after Kassandra's disappearance. He was the longest-running elder of the three, and was the father to Elder Auxentios.
Auxentios is the current elder, who was groomed for leadership by his father Kreon. Auxentios is father to Eris and Cole.
=== Kassandra Section ===
The Kassandra section contains the roots of the teachings in Vimata. These chapters speak of working with nature, using love for each other for betterment, protecting one's own, and setting a good example. Kassandra also wrote about her personal thoughts. These chapters end abruptly.
=== Kreon Section ===
The Kreon section is the thickest part of the book. The language is very superior in tone compared to that of Kassandra. Kreon states that their way of life in Vimata is the only way to create a better world, and those who cannot live in this world, don't belong. Those are the ones who are chosen by the Serpent to feed on as sacrifice.
=== Auxentios Section ===
The Auxentios section is more neutral and less authoritarian in tone compared to Kreon's, but still contains his teachings. The last entry speaks of grief, the fragile nature of mortal life, and how even the most promising individuals can disappear. He mentions both Eris and Kallias by name."The beating heart of the tribe, of the village, of Vimata, has perished, and now we must rebuild."
