Before you become a Shillien Oracle that seeks the truth of all light and darkness, you must find the fragments of song that Gran Kain and Einhasad sang in the beginning.
You must find two documents that have the song verses of creation written in ancient runes -- one is Garmiel's Book and the other is Andariel's Book.
Meet Sorcerer
Talbot in Gludin Village to learn about Garmiel's Book. Show him this letter and he will welcome you since it is I who sent you.
Player choice:
Welcome, my friend. You want to walk the path of the Shillien Oracle? The magic of a Dark Wizard that commands fire and wind is very spectacular, but the magic power of the Shillien Oracle, which commands the more fundamental power of the universe of light and darkness, is a valuable asset to our race. I hope you successfully complete the trial of seeking truth.
Garmiel's Book, which you search for, does not exist in this world. However, there is a way to find it.
Player choice:
Have you ever heard of the demon
dark succubus? They were servants that lived in the ancient palace of darkness and waited on Gran Kain. They were made in the image of a Goddess and are like angels of beauty and wisdom.
However, they were jealous of the power of the Gods and secretly eavesdropped on the songs Gran Kain sung in his palace, and wrote them down to use that power as their own. When Gran Kain discovered this, he was furious and cast away the servants, saying, 'I will not steal back the secrets that you have overheard. However, to know the secrets, you will have to spill blood.' The documents that the dark succubi made of the Gods' songs disappeared, but instead, when they died, their blood formed runes to write out the lyrics of the songs that they had overheard at the palace of Gran Kain.
If you wish to complete Garmiel's book, you must collect the runes made by the blood of the
dark succubus There are many dark succubi near the School of Dark Arts located in the northern region of The Dark Forest. Kill them and find the bloody runes. Take these five blank sheets. If you put the scroll sheet near the blood, the blood will soak in and form runes. If you bring five bloody runes, I will put the runes together to make you Garmiel's book.
May Shilen's blessing be with all those who search for the truth of darkness... I see you have brought back all five bloody runes. I will combine these and write out Garmiel's Book for you. It is only a small section of the song of darkness that Gran Kain sang in the beginning, but the truth within will develop your realization of magic to a level higher.
Now take this. It is the completed Garmiel's Book. Read its passages as you rest during your journey, and adapt the truth within as your own.
Now you must fulfill the second custom that you must pass to become a Shillien Oracle. You must find Andariel's Book, which contains parts of the song of creation sung by the God of Light in the beginning. Take this book to Priest
Adonius in the temple of Einhasad. He will receive you cordially when you say, 'I have read your book and, being deeply moved, I have repented of my sins and decided to accept the light.'
Along with Garmiel's Book, which I wrote for you, you must find Andariel's Book, which contains the truth of light, if you wish to become a Shillien Oracle.
I see you have found Andariel's Book. Did the lofty priests of Einhasad fall for it when you spoke of the books they had written? They are hypocrites, who forget that the vanity and arrogance that they say are sins are within themselves.
Now take Garmiel's Book and Andariel's Book to Sorceress
Sidra of the village of Castle Gludio Castle Town. Then she will give you the
The Priests of Humans or Elves only look to the gods of light, and so their understanding is imperfect. The magic they use is only half and incomplete. However, the Shillien Oracles, the combat celebrants of the Dark Elves, understand both light and dark and command power from both. Not only do they cure and assist soldiers with the power of light, but they also curse enemies and steal vitality with the power of darkness.
There is a ritual required when becoming a Shillien Oracle, to gain the knowledge of eternal darkness.
Player choice:
You are the Shillien Oracle, who has gained all the knowledge of that office. You do not need another ritual.
The customary right to perform the ritual of becoming a Shillien Oracle are only given to Dark Mystics. I cannot give you this opportunity.
The
orb of abyss that you carry is a token that shows you have completed all requirements and are eligible to become a Shillien Oracle. Take the orb to a grand master of the Dark Elven Village Guild and he will change your profession. If you go to Grand Master ![]()
In the beginning, Einhasad and Gran Kain sang the song of creation and created the world. The songs of light sung by Einhasad and poems of darkness recited by Gran Kain formed a beautiful harmony to create all life in the universe. Afterwards, they taught the songs they had sung to the earthly races that worshipped them, to enable them to control light and darkness.
However, the giants were too greedy and desired the gods' wisdom. When they challenged their authority, Einhasad and Gran Kain punished the giants and the thousand songs that the giants were taught were broken into runes. Later, magicians began to collect the ancient runes and rearrange them into spells, but their power is very weak and insignificant compared to that of the ancient ancestors who could sing the songs of creation learned directly from the gods.
Player choice:
Meet with Sorcerer
Talbot and ask about Garmiel's Book. You can find him in the Dark Elven Village guild of the village of
This place is the holy hall where we serve Einhasad, god of light. Why have you, a member of the race of darkness, set foot in this place?
Player choice:
There have been Dark Elves that have said the same thing before. We priests showed them compassion and taught them the path of light, but we found out that they were false seekers of truth with their eye on the power of white magic. I can no longer trust the words of your kind.
Player choice:
Why this is the prayer book that I wrote ... You have this too? This was published in the form of a book of poems with prayers I made to Einhasad when I was young. It became known among the younger generation through rumors, and now it is a book beloved by many people. It is embarrassing to be saying so myself, but many people were moved after reading my book and have come to the temple to follow the path of light.
When I think that my humble writings have played a part in spreading the will of Einhasad in the world, I can only be joyful. And now those like you, who follow evil doctrines, are impressed by my book ...
Player choice:
Unlike your gods, who hide truth within darkness, Einhasad is a benevolent god. We priests have been permitted a portion of the songs of light, written in Andariel's Book. If you have decided to repent your wicked past and follow the creed of the light, I will give you a copy of the ancient book.
Atonement is not that easy. If you go east of here to the Ruins of Despair, there are many undead that cannot rest in death. To destroy these undead, you must send the good spirits still trapped inside them into the arms of Einhasad. If you bring back ten
ashen bones that can be obtained by killing the skeletons or zombies in the Ruins of Despair, you will finish your atonement ritual.
Welcome, child of the light. The bone pieces of the departed souls that you have brought back will be given a proper funeral. This completes your atonement. Now you are ready to follow the path of light.
Take this. It is Andariel's book, the book you were looking for. It is a very precious book that contains parts of the song of creation sung by Einhasad, the god of light. May you always meditate on the creed of light within.
Welcome, child of the light. Are you meditating upon the truth of Einhasad within Andariel's Book?
The two documents you hold in your hands contain parts of the song of creation sung by the Gods in the beginning. I trust that you discovered the power of the precious phrases and the truth of authority as you read them one by one.
Now I am giving you the
orb of abyss. With this, you have earned the qualification to become a Shillien Oracle. Take the
orb of abyss and go to a Grand Master to request a change of occupation. If you speak to Grand Master
Tobias over there, you can change profession right now.
I see you haven't left yet. Why are you hesitating? Hurry and go to The Dark Forest. There, near the School of Dark Arts, there are dark succubi. Destroy them and bring back five bloody runes. May the divine protection of Gran Kain be with you!
This is not enough. You must have five bloody runes in order to complete Garmiel's book.
I am a Sorceress who has taught countless magicians, and I can feel the magic power of those who stand before me. The power I sense from you seems to be less than that needed to become a Shillien Oracle. Train a little more and return to me when your understanding of magic becomes deeper.
The second level of the test is to find Andariel's Book, which contains the song phrases of creation sung by Einhasad.
Your atonement ritual is not complete until you gather ten
ashen bones
