Todelmer...  Built to study the heavens.  And glorious heavens you will find here.  I'm only sad that we were never allowed to finish.

I have told you some of the story. Yeesha's great-grandmother Ti'ana came to us desperate for control, convincing our people to betray rules we had held for generations. And… we died.

Yeesha claims such death, as painful as it was, had to be done. A plan of the Maker. And she will rebuild… [scoffing] she will rebuild.

I will tell you, such delusive wisdom comes from vague feelings and daydreams, and the Tablet you will have is too powerful for such wisdom.

Todelmer... enjoy the beauty of the heavens while you consider the power that can control them.

{{quote|Much to learn. First, the stone Slate. Pick it up from the pedestal and take it with you. But know this about the Slates. They too are abominations, made by the bahro creatures' abuse of the Art of Writing. Still… they carry great power.

You will find that you can write on the Slates anything you wish. There are some elementary symbols that the creatures understand. At least in this way, you can use the Bahro hindrance for your good.

They will take it, if you drop it. They will obey it, if you order them. They will return it, in time. As you learn, you will have more control.}}
