A New World
Energy courses through your body as it passes through the portal. A sprawling mountainous landscape stretches before you.
The world is beautiful, but an aura of travesty washes over you, a sorrow from an unknown time. Just what happened to this world?
The mists coalesce, forming into the shape of a beautiful— if otherworldly— woman. She feels motherly, somehow.
Andromeda Welcomes You
"Oh? What is this? A Starfarer? A Child of Earth, I believe? Please, do not be alarmed. You must be so confused. My name is Andromeda. I am the mother of this plane. I did not sense you here before we crossed paths. Do you believe in destiny? Forgive my musings. With your permission, I shall grant you empowered Sight."
Ahh, Traveler, you should feel honored to be greeted in such a fashion. Andromeda is Teralt's Worldsoul, after all, and it is not often that they manifest in such a perceptible manner.
She seems rather receptive to your presence, in fact. A far stretch from some of them I have had the displeasure of reading about.
Andromeda Gifts You Sight
"Can you see it now? Good. Then the Sight I have bestowed upon you is working. This gift will enable you to See things here on Teralt that might otherwise remain imperceptible to you, such as the being in the distance. Fret not, it holds no interest in us. But Child, there are things you must know as you Travel this Shattered realm. Please, allow me to empart my knowledge unto you."
Andromeda Shows You Visions
"Heed the threat of this dark one, Child. Even Sealed, Moonbreaker's influence still leaks into my plane at times... despite my wishes. The Harbinger comes soon; beware the bleeding moon."
"You should perhaps know of these... parasites. Though of lesser cosmic exigency, they are still troublesome creatures. And since my conflict with that dark one, they have been... acting up."
"I shall also entrust you with this most sought-after wisdom, Child. It should enable you to work wonders with my Power; you may even save us all in the days to come. Do not make me regret this."
Fascinating... Such valuable information... so freely given. Truly, this Worldsoul is a benevolent patron. Count your blessings, Traveler, for I fear this journey may yet be fraught with much peril.
Andromeda Bids You Farewell
"I must go now, Child. My power is not what it once was, and I must rest if I am to ever cure my body of that which plagues it, and the obstacle which hinders me from doing so. I wish you luck on your Travels. But as a Starfarer, you hold my faith. Go with the graces of the Mother."
