Journal of a strange elf; Craaaa'nek

I lived at the foot of The Master, bathing him with sacred oils and massaging him. His glass throne, so perfect, to touch The Master, endless ecstasy.

I miss The Master so much. The Master was always so good to me. The Master is life. The Master is meaning. It pains me so greatly to be so far from The Master.

The Master spoke to Craaaa’nek… Craaaa’nek is always so honored, so happy to hear the words of The Master, he would do anything for him. Craaaa’nek is always so happy to see the master to be with him… the only thing greater is to hear The Master speak. Yesterday The Master spoke to Craaaan’ek.

The Master spoke and he said to Craaaa’nek “Go to the ruins. Find the fate of those that built the place, the Builders. Find also those that dissapeared from our Home. Act as them, or they will kill you and you will not return. Study. Learn. Record. We will send for you, then return.”

I would do anything for The Master, I am so lonely without him but he promises that soon I may return, when I finish his wishes. The Master honors me so greatly to give me orders. I would do anything for The Master, anything. Soon I will go home to the Family and the Sacred Ones and sit at the foot of The Master forever.

The Master is meaning, The Master is life, All glory to The Master.

Craaaa’nek has arrived in the place of the Builders. The builders are not here. Craaaa’nek has asked many different beings where the builders are and he can not find them. Craaaa’nek found one builder whose designation is Doja. Doja told Craaaa’nek that books could tell Craaaa’nek where the builders are and there was an exchange of gold.

The books did not tell Craaaa’nek where the builders were.

Craaaa’nek looked for Doja but could not find him. Craaaa’nek found others and asked them where Doja was, and also where the builders were. One said that Oghma knew. Craaaa’nek asked who Oghma is and he said Oghma was a god. Craaaa’nek asked what is a god, the being told Craaaa’nek to figure it out.

Craaaa’nek stood still for a very long time but could not figure out what is a god.

Eventually a female being passed by and told Craaaa’nek what is a god, a being of great power is a god.

Surely The Master is god.

I found Doja the Builder and he does not know where the other builders are. How can Doja not know, he is their family. All the Sacred Ones at home know where all other Sacred Ones are. How can Doja have this inability? Doja The Builder does not know where the builders are. Doja said the builders will return to the city, so now Craaaa’nek waits for them to return. Craaaa’nek will find all the others who left the Home, and learn as The Master told him.

Craaaa’nek later passed by many people in red cloth who moved together. They told Craaaa’nek and Doja the Builder to worship Bane. They said Bane is a god and has all power. I told them this was untrue, because The Master is god. They said we would suffer because Bane is god, not The Master. This is a thing which is not true. They left.

Surely the builders will find Doja the Builder when they return, so Craaaa’nek followed him. We killed rats. Craaaa’nek was very afraid when he saw them, for they are horrific creatures. If a single rat ever entered into the glass throne of The Master, the world would end.

We killed all the rats, it was a very good thing.

Craaaa’nek later once again met the men in red. They said Bane is a god but Oghma is not a god. Craaaa’nek told them Cali said this was untrue. The men in red said that Bane is a god, Oghma is not.

Both of them say what the others says, is untrue.

I do not understand.

Craaaa’nek asked a being which Craaaa’nek now knows to be called "dwarf" if he knew of the builders. He did not. He took Craaaa’nek to a building which had statues of many scary beasts including a beholder, but also a Sacred One. He asked Craaaa’nek questions for many hours and Craaaa’nek asked a few questions as well, he has learned very much and is honored to do as The Master commands. Dwarf has told Craaaa’nek what a "friend" is and said he is friend.
