Samples from the Virtual Archives of the Intellectual Palace of Shu'Jilon
TN: This document translated into english for readability. Shiu historical characters used often in contemporary virtual correspondance have been rendered in futhorc runes, the roles of these scripts being roughly similar. The potential rendering of Jilon as Yilon has been opted against. When translating languages from other existances it is often difficult to render words, but the people of Ephime are human and thus it is strictly possible, so no alternative names have been opted for. Titles of people and works have been similarly preserved in form, including the literal rendering of "Daughters of the Sea" as "Seadottirs," which this translator believes would be the understanding of the corresponding word for its speakers. Concerns may be held these choices are made in simple opposition to the mainstream "University of Chuyilon" translation, but this is reductive, and this translator's full thoughts on this rendering can be found elsewhere.
HN: "VirCon" was at the time of the below document an emerging technology, and has additionally been reformated to be more familiar to our Email, which it is broadly equivalent to. This has constituted shifting it to read left to right and leaving various details above as opposed to below the body of the text. In interest of accuracy, little else was changed.

Well-met Sage Dungan, I am beginning correspondence because I would like to follow up with the extra reading you recommended for this moon in regards to the final years of the dark bronze period.
Is 'Sage Nuatl Ajni's work: Iraner in the final years of the Ohalic Empire' work to be read alongside the same author's companion work 'Influence of first Seadottir contact on late-Ohalic Iraner' or would this be too great a workload? Additionally, can this be cited in assignments or are we only to reference the work in class.
Also, I don't believe the resources on this moon's learning has been placed in Virtual space yet? I cannot access it on I.Palace computers.

Hail and hail well

The role of individuals in the fall of the Ohalic Empire
Whilst the Ohalic empire has long been a focus of history's lens, especially for succeeding empires or modern nations (...) what fascinates more is the figures involved. Though the Draconian faith became extinct by the negative-third century, the role of religion in the fall of the Empire cannot be understated (...) In some ways, the destruction of Shu'Alumi was the unfinished business of the temple crisis 13 years beforehand, and in some ways vengeance for the religiously-motivated imperial efforts in Nojineland.
-LaySage Kumira Aladroi, 'The Nojine struggle, crossing time, from bronze to uranium: A Nuatilian perspective' 1387
Aladroi's position is fundementally absurd. Great powers of individual caused the destruction of the ivory empire. The first city in history cannot be destroyed by mere ideological quarrels and invented material interest. Texts from the time, a time predating paper!, describe fighters who flew wingless into the city and reduced it to the scar it is today. Religion and Anti-empire sentiment cannot explain its destruction as it was not immaterial things that swung the Hell-singer's blood-strong blade. (...) Utter nonesense, bloodless speech.
-Lord Cirtsa, master of the temple mass art, 'Of responses' 1388
"Compare this contemporary perspective and its response. How far do you agree? In your response assess the role of religion and blood arts in the final years of the Ohalic Empire." 45 mark essay. Recieve me this on the 40th.
