The venerable scroll, etched with the golden ink of the setting sun, begins with a passage alluding to the traversing of realms less seen and understood by the children of the earth.
Chapter I: Of the Gathering Petals and the Silent Crescent - Thou art summoned to unravel the delicate bindings that tie thy essence to the corporeal. It is written that amidst the gathering twilight, one must first align the consciousness with the whispering winds of the distant unseen. Rest assured, this alignment shall be achieved by the mere act of listening—listening to the hushed murmurs that coil around the ears like silken tendrils of the night.
In myriad hues of the evening star, the flowery rites must be undertaken with diligence and care. Gather, oh seeker, the petals of the evening bloom—the florals that quake in the twilight breeze—and place them delicately upon the forehead, thereby creating a divine circlet which shall bestow wisdom beyond the ken of mortal understanding.
