For some time, his castle remained empty.
It became merely a looking glass to the outside world- to the wars waged, to the death cycles, and to the vain search for balance without him. The mage kept his identity hidden for this age, waiting for his just time. He knew the minds and hearts of all his creation, and he comforted those who seeked him through the chaos. The humble and the weak would become equipped with his spirit in the days to come. When his plans would unfold.
