The Journal of Seekers (artifact)

The Journal of Seekers is not a single journal, but rather a compilation of various notable excerpts gathered by the Mogowai on their journeys to far-flung corners of the world. A new edition is released every 50 years, with the primary source of the journals being the library within the Irōchi Damotada, where the collected writings of all those who have journeyed north are stored. This particular version was first compiled in 1239, and features tales of widespread devastation in the wake of Frodbrokna. A large portion is dedicated to the ongoing bloody struggle between the Agionists and Wardenites, with several eyewitness accounts of major battles, and even an interview with the Wardenite Mamur about the situation, in which he outlines a methodical approach. This interview is contrasted with the woe of another traveler, telling of their several near-death experiences while hiding from the Order of the Blind Watcher. In addition, it tells of the courts of various Aversarian warlords, such as the writings of a traveler who was present with Legio XXI 'Axiaotheia' during their campaign against Aeschraes, the man who brought down their empire. The Chevaliens concern almost all of the volume's remaining contents, with the story of a single man's adventure with a mercenary company in Beid Faluh.
