Chapter 5

I have come to this time time line, confused and astounded at the way things
have progressed. Was it my work that caused this rise of the Battleragers?
I can't help but think that I took part in it, yet it backfired and instead
of building an army of soldiers against the chaos mages, they are against
all mages. I pity them, and find them disgusting. So I must find a solution
to fix that, though, can I?

I have come across the Empire and the Scions and have found that the Empire
is not really focused on magic as much as I'd like, and more on dominating
the world, yet the Scions are the result of the mages, even if through betrayal.
I've made my decision to put forth my effort towards their goals, but also
feel, some of their goals align with my own in that respect, at least with
the problem of 'Villagers' as they are referred.

I have had no luck of finding anything with my lineage, which I find a bit
disheartening, but I will continue to search for signs of my family, to see
if my child was truly lost or if something happened with the dispersion spell
caused a rift in time allowed my pregnancy to carry out, thus why my stomach
was no longer showing signs of the child I was baring.

It was simpler then, with Rahvin and Derit, but these gods, so many of them
with differing values from what I understand, I imagine I should gain one of
their's favor in this life if I am to gain benevolence in my task, though I
am unsure who my soul aligns with though I imagine I'll figure out in time.

...As I fade into deep thought, a vision.. no a memory strikes me. In this brief
glimpse of my past, I see myself holding a child in my arms but it's so
terribly muddled, that I cannot tell the sex of the child, or how old they
might be. Just the feeling of holding my precious baby in my arms. Snapping
back to reality, a realization dawns on me that I did bare my child before
the chaos mages struck, so there may still be hope in finding out about if my
lineage had survived. Damn those cursed chaos mages!
