With no different option to proceed, he determined to open the black envelope after some tinkering.
With a delicate pull of the envelope, the merchandise inside fell out of the envelope and revealed itself. After some cautious examination, Venn concluded that It was merely a bit of brown coloured paper that was folded in half with a tough grainy texture.
Unfolding the small piece of paper, he makes an attempt to learn the content material inside.
On the piece of brown paper, it was stuffed with phrases of an individual’s cursive handwriting written in black ink. Upon a fast look by way of of the writings, Venn shockingly recognised that the letter was written in an historical language belonging to that of the Stormbound Empire.
Aside from that, an odd emblem was located on the backside of the letter as nicely.
“What precisely is that this?” Venn’s eyebrows furrowed. The content material of the letter was not what he had anticipated in any respect.
The Stormbound Empire existed in the identical period as Adeonis. In truth, it was the birthplace of the Grand Mage as nicely.
All through the historical past of humanity in Heaven Descent, there are 4 particular eras that made up the story background of the sport.
The oldest period, also called the Period of Gods, was a time the place varied Gods roamed amongst people. They imparted treasured abilities and data, supplied blessings to humanity and taught them to stay in a treacherous world stuffed with perilous hazard.
The second period was referred to as the Period of Calamity, it was a time the place the Gods had fallen and have become relics of the previous. It was the darkest interval for people as their protectors had betrayed them, both fled or useless.
Nobody knew what occurred as there exists little data of this era, however particulars had proven that the inhabitants had dwindled sharply throughout this era of darkness and despair.
The third period was named because the Period of the Three emperors and 5 Kings. In contrast to the earlier Eras, there was a clearly outlined interval of how lengthy it lasted.
And that was 5 thousand years. Books that talked about about this era had been ample, and it was the primary subject of analysis of the library rats.
To finish the Period of Calamity, the proficient mage assistant – Adenois devised a way the place people might extract and assimilate cores from defeated monsters.
It meant that people might lastly achieve the prospect to retaliate in opposition to their threats, and never stay within the backside of the meals chain anymore.
Via the sacrifices of mountains and mountains of human lives, an increasing number of monster cores had been accrued, and the general energy of humanity grew as a complete.
It was an incredible monument of the historical past of humanity.
Adeonis had carved out a bloody path of progress for humanity and was topped because the grand mage afterwards for his achievements by the individuals.
At any time when Venn examine him within the library books, he would all the time take into consideration the acts that he did. He had a sense that he and Adeonis had been the identical type of individuals.
Was Adeonis right in his resolution? Venn wasn’t positive.
However one factor was for positive, determined instances name for determined measures.
Evidently, most informal gamers would by no means have thought that there can be a historical past behind the mechanisms of monster cores. And that was the mesmerising factor about Heaven Descent. The sport was really alive.
Lastly, the period that the gamers had been at present residing in, is called Pantheon Period. That is the time the place the as soon as superb empires and kingdoms of the previous had damaged up into scattered kingdoms.
The assorted kingdoms would act because the centre stage for the gamers.

Venn was confused as to why such a letter would seem on this place. Wasn’t it presupposed to be a easy errand quest?
Prior to now timeline, he stumbled upon the guide accidentally and every time he seemed inside, he would discover a piece of envelope and a observe that may point out who the envelope must be despatched to.
After returning the guide again to the shelf, a brand new quest with a brand new set of directions would seem within the guide once more if he completed the supply.
Nevertheless, it was totally different this time.
“What might or not it’s? Why did this occur?” Venn thought internally. With out the hunt, his plan would disintegrate like a sand fort.
Thankfully, Venn had tried to be taught the traditional language used within the Period of the Three emperors and 5 Kings from Klein earlier than up to now.
Though he was simply an newbie, it was nonetheless higher than nothing.
Paying extra consideration to the writings, he tried to single out phrases that he might perceive.
“Annual assembly.”
“Or…phanage.”
“Seven… days?”
“…”
“Fuck me sideways!”
Venn wished to hit himself. Out of the massive chunk of passages, he might solely recognise 5 phrases and he wasn’t even positive that he was right in deciphering them.
Nevertheless, a second later, a quest notification popped up in his imaginative and prescient.
[Common quest received: You have discovered a mysterious piece of paper with strange writing on it. As you cannot understand the meaning of the words, perhaps it would be wise to ask someone that might understand the language.]
[Quest reward: 200 experience points and 20 copper coins]
[Accept the quest? Y/N]
Venn wished to just accept the hunt, he had already considered who he might ask relating to the letter. Nevertheless, the familiarity he felt when he noticed the unusual emblem on the letter made him paused a bit of.
He had a sense that he had learn in regards to the emblem someplace earlier than.
Ignoring the hunt notification, Venn examined the emblem extra carefully once more.
The brand depicted two serpents in purple, each devouring one another tails, forming an ideal circle. In the midst of the circle was a large opened eye seemingly in a position to stare into one’s soul. The design was unusual and ominous. That is why Venn had a robust inkling that he had seen the emblem earlier than.
Looking his reminiscence to his greatest efforts, Venn tried to affiliate the picture of the emblem to the books that he had learn till he realized he might merely slim down the vary of his search to the historical past of Stormbound Empire.
In a short time, he appeared to have recalled one thing.
“Is not this emblem, the logo for the blood serpents?!” Venn exclaimed. “Each single factor is smart now!”
