And every Seer who made it possible

Listen to the echoes
  1. “Each time you fall, rise again stronger.”

  2. “The key that you seek is in your blind spots.”

  3. “That moment of complete despair, remember how you overcame it.”

  4. “Success lies on the other side of the abyss of errors.”

  5. “Make your own path; your Beasts and you are not separate entities, you are bonded by Kinship, you are bonded by Hope.”

  6. “We were entrusted with the will of the people that have fallen and of those that are yet to come.”
