Spirit’s Anchor, The Dreaming City
The Guardian speaks to Riven’s spirit.
Riven: A timely arrival, Guardian. Another egg from my clutch will soon pass by our reality. You should prepare to claim it. It is a strange turn of events that they were cast into the Ascendant Plane. Strange… but not unintentional, I suspect. Ask yourself: who would benefit from such a situation? Who wields the requisite mastery over the Ley Lines? Who has a history of sequestering the Ahamkara to keep them hidden? I said before that I do not trust Mara Sov. Tell me… do you? She offers you praise and gifts. Bequeaths to you a share of her power. Is she so different from an Ahamkara? From me? Do you truly believe she wishes for nothing in return? Know this, Guardian: I have been forthright about what I stand to gain from our arrangement… a future for my otherwise extinct kind. Mara, on the other hand… what does SHE stand to gain?
