Secrets of the Clouded Prithvi

[Kynim]

Beneath the several documents, release forms, and research notes, another personal entry is made within his book of secrets.

I have come to learn that sometimes.. the world can be cruel, unforgiving, and sometimes, the people closest to you will surprise you. In more recent years, I've tried to take the back seat where I can; and yet, the world itself beckons my call, heeds my aid... Even if not on the front lines of a war, I know exactly where it is I need be. I'm a wanderer.. a traveler, a healer, and a mender. The art of healing, whether it be the Soul, the Spirit, the Mind, the Body.. or the Self, is the most sacred of arts; and thus, it must need be taught, passed on, and shared with the world at large. 

I have always been the product of those who taught me; mending was an art taught to me by my mother, my aunt.. my uncle... Sometimes, I wonder if I would've had a more adventurous life if I'd learned not to care for the wounds and pain of those closest to me.. But I am naught but a bleeding heart. I've never known anything but the means to restore the heart, the being, and the dreams of those that I call my friends, my loved ones, and my most favored.

Even if I need to face the false light of a girl drawn to madness, and become cursed with unsight...

Even if my spirit be damned by a wraith to try and protect a friend... 

Even if I need to face the likeness of death, or oppose the reaper to restore a fractured soul. My mind- body- and soul- have been in disarray for months since that moment when I was able to stay Morana's hand with the aid of Lucille; protecting the life of my twin brother before he could be surrendered to some strange, ominous gate lingering with the essence of death..

... and yet.. after all that has been lost... I can see them again, and remind myself why the art of healing is so sacred to me.

Kiri Prithvi taught me how to mend the body, and yet I can see her in every craft I make; and hear her voice, urging me to ensure every piece is my best work. That every portal I study is committed to memory, lest my destination be somewhere I don't intend to be. I don't know if you're dead mother, or if you've simply gone elsewhere. But I know that you're watching from afar..

Dyaus Prithvi taught me how to mend the mind and soul, or at least.. he let me believe that I could do it; it was belief that allowed me to stray unto the path I'm on now, and he was the best person to distill such a thing into someone. He showed me how to achieve my goals- how to achieve my beliefs, and how to bring that same confidence into others.

Melidoyla.. while I'll never come to understand you fully, I know how to mend a body and spirit from what you taught me; for while you gave people falsity and toyed with them with all of your pranks, you brought laughter, a sense of family, and among all things, you taught me the path beneath Harmony that I want to follow; for you were a being of Joy before you lost who you were, and I'll ensure that memory is retained. 

There are others I see, in this haze; in this veil of death I've become spectator to.. and yet, among all of them, these three- the most important aspects of my youth, return in full force with every sung harmony, every note of despair, every ring of melanchony- and yet, I can only come to smile, because I've come to know joy.

The second secret is

Joy is the ultimate state of healing; for when one comes to understand it, they'll always know it

Joy is a distillation of Harmony; when all things have come to be perfect and true, and happy, one may experience Joy

To invoke joy is to invoke a smile, to invoke laughter, to save a mind from madness, to allow someone to see their light once more

Joy can be felt in music, in dancing, in art, in love, in friendship, in kindness

It is a feeling that can be felt by all; some may find it in battle, some may find it in solitude, some may find it in passion-

I can open eyes to the Joy of Harmony, and to the world at large; and with Azalea's light, I've come to realize the type of person that I am

I've come to learn what it is that I want to pursue in life, I know what it is that I want to reach

I'll find it some day, some how, but first, I want to find you, because your disappearance is something that can't be left unwritten.

After all,

You gave me a key to find you
