The First Revelation (event)
I brace myself, and take a quick, direct look at the light, its mere presence enough to virtually blind me. My vision goes entirely white, only the silhouette of the masked figure shielding me from the full force of the entity's radiance.
But it is too much.
I am afflicted by a splitting headache as the light, even when not focused on me, launches a wholesale assault on my mind and sanity. Unbidden knowledge and foreign memories flood my mind, but I am not in any state to even begin comprehending them. In panic, I cut the vision short.
For the next several days, the partially-digested, foreign memories come back to haunt me. They are never coherent enough to make sense of, but still powerful enough to send me into brief fugue states.
I can only hope that this will pass soon...
