The Visions, the Mysteries of the Replica

In the stories of Cil-e-Lian, it is related how Eramila Caemila manifested herself to the Caelfim through her skills with visions, using the Replica of Pelintil as a means.

From ancient times, perhaps the only exception is Aradila, the prophetess of Minara.

Such ancient tales do not delve into these details, but sages and students believe that the visions of Aradile were no more than coincidences and claims made based on observations.

Others say that Eramila used her to manifest herself, in the same way that when Cirilea saw the face of Aradila in the waters of the Nochi River.

They were harbingers of evil to come.

But none of this is completely clear for the scholars.

However, the visions offered by the Pelintil, the Replica of Cilirima, is something completely different.

It all begins at the end of the III century, when Maralaen Talcaran goes into the Forest of Sensita while playing with her friends, and attracted by the Replica, she ends finding it.

When she touched the trunk of the wonderful tree, she had a vision that prophesied what would happen if the tree was corrupted.

The extinction of the Caelfim and the beauty of Cil-e-Lian.

She was so scared back then, that she never told it.

Years later, she returned to the Replica and touched it again, and through the darkness, she could see the deep eyes of Samanar, the Shadow Lieutenant.

This was the vision that her hometown, Dolara, was being conquered by him, and she saw it from afar, so she fled to Ostara.

There, Maralaen warned that the Bearer of Darkness was near, and she wrote the Mysteries of Pelintil, and her writings remained in the library.

With the fall of Ostara a short time later, and the death of Maralaen, her discoveries survived in her writings in the library.

Centuries would have to pass for another Caelfin to pay attention to the mysteries of the Replica.

When Ostara was reconquered in the V century, the writings of Maralaen were found and studied by the Caelfim.

However, soon after, Samanar attacks Ostara again, already knowing of the existence of said writings, and it was Seiya Yaman who fled to Pelintil with the writings to protect them.

When Samanar entered the library looking for the writings, they were gone.

Even without the writings, Samanar went to the Pelintil, and when he touched it, he had a vision of his own fall.

The vision showed that while he was corrupting the Replica, the Caelfim would appear to stop him.

By that time, Samanar had complete control of the continent of Cil-e-Lian.

And through this prophecy is how he knew that the Caelfim must have fled by the sea to other lands, so he decided to pursue them and finish them before corrupting the tree, as a precaution.

When Samanar leaves, Seiya touches the Replica and thus the plans of Samanar are revealed, so she tries to warn of this.

Despite the attempts of Samanar to change his fate, at the end of the VI century, when he went to corrupt the Pelintil, the armies of the lands of Astin-e-Lian, led by Kodamil Kazuya, managed to prevent it, and this is how Samanar had to retreat to his fortress.

Perhaps the visions of the Replica only showed a possible future, or perhaps they showed what was really going to happen hopelessly.

Perhaps if Samanar had tried to corrupt the Replica when he was alone, everything would have been different.

But the uncertainty consumed him, and his thirst for revenge grew as he realized that the Caelfim were not entirely under his rule.

Be that as it may, what the sages seem to be clear about is that Eramila Caemila manifested herself through the Replica, to help them against the growing shadow of the Bearer of Darkness.
