Chapter 10-3

“Should anyone come across this glyph, heed my words. Research into the Darksime crystals has yielded startling results, and this knowledge must not be made public at all costs.
First things first, these crystals aren’t worldly. While that much is common knowledge, various divinations have found that strange energies from the Fade Realm- Or as others call it, the Nightmare Realm, or Paha Kaluvistaa in the tongue of the magi- somehow react with one another to form the actual minerals.
That said, the energies are impotent after formation, yet they remain ripe for invasion by psionic energies. Where the odd powers come from, I know not. Psionics can literally come from any reality, and if they came from beyond…well, we’d have no way to confirm the origin without going insane.
However, I know full well the benefits of the Darksime, despite the strange origins of the substance. I may not have intentions of Lichdom like other casters before me, but I do know a way to gain immortality of another sort using the crystals.
Yes, I have said it. I, Samael…Magistrate Arcane of the Seventh Order…know how to bypass the curse of the Ritual of the Rasvim should the need arise. And I fear I shall have to undergo this blasphemy if Mokosh becomes tainted by the Gate.”

Wind whipped through the trees of the forest north of Falador, carrying smoke from the City of White with it. By no means was that any surprise, V thought, given the fact that even under the cover of the pines and oaks at the forest’s edge, he could see the orange glow of flames behind the city walls, and above them, a blanket of armored darkness in the form of what he had guessed was some kind of Black Knight augmented with unholy power.
