*"What a fool I was to believe that our reign would be unending—"
*"Above the eternal, savage law of beautiful beasts. Above the rise and fall of human civilization."
*"Far and away in our divine Horizon did we govern our ancient land of Urzyma..."
*"...until the chaos swallowed us all."

*Under the sinking sun, a streak of smoldering flame traces its way between the wind-carved rock pillars.
*A lone figure clad in fine garb watched from her perch as a stream of restless dead made their shuffling journey westward.
 	
*Aesys: So they, too, have felt it stirring within them.
 	
*Pressing a hand to her chest, she sighs.
 	
*The God-King, the mortal terror who had savaged the old pantheon, had been felled by a priestess within his own city.
*In the wake of his dissipating body, the shards of divinity he had plundered from her kin were liberated.
*Among the arcs of energy, it was with joy that Aesys divined her son Horus' spirit intact in a new vessel,
*and great sorrow that her husband's dim shard had disappeared somewhere beneath the city.
*Restless Dead: SSsss...hhhaaa...
 	
*Aesys: Osiris is no more, and the Priests of Silence have all but fallen away in these long, cruel years.
*Aesys: Netherworld Duat exists no longer...perhaps that is why the dead cannot find their rightful rest.
*Aesys: And yet, there must be a reason why they're so drawn toward that sullied corner of the solemn West.
 	
*Aesys: O Lord of Life, guide me to you as you do these piteous souls.

*Restless Dead: Hhrrrrggrrr...
 	
*Aesys: Hold, restless soul! I wish no harm upon thee!
 	
*Restless Dead: Gggrrraahh!
 	
*Aesys: ...Another innocent unjustly felled.
*Aesys: Cursed be that fiend...Why are they moving toward his city?
*"Across the land I traveled tirelessly, until I came to that city which shall remain nameless forevermore."
*"The city of the one that dared crown himself with the epithets of the divine."
 	
*"The gate was already destroyed when I arrived, and it was by a sliver I managed to stem the sudden surge..."
*"Much as I hate to watch them reduced to ash...I have no way of purifying their wretched existence."
*"Have mortal minds all but forgotten that we divine walked with them once upon a time?"
*"How far they have strayed from the sun under his black rule!"
*"Now, we must turn our attention to these poor, lost souls."
 	
*"With the help of these brave young vessels..."
 	
*"I can only hope that, despite all this, we were not too late to come to your aid, my Lord."
 	
*Aesys: I am Aesys, Lady of the Horizons...
*Aesys: ...and I have come to liberate thee.
