It would seem abnormal events can weaken the veil between worlds, and tear them asunder. When such rifts appear, men can walk between realms.*"
+90,TEXT_REGLAKSAINTCOINACHSFIND_00113_RAMMBROES_000_104,"(-NOAH Report-)*The mages of Allag could create rifts at will. Dubbing them “voidgates,” they used them not only to enter the void, but also to harness the dark powers therein─the voidsent.*"
+91,TEXT_REGLAKSAINTCOINACHSFIND_00113_RAMMBROES_000_105,"(-NOAH Report-)*The voidsent, however, make ill allies. The fiends have a depraved appetite, and seek this world merely to sup upon the aether it contains. Were they ever to enter our realm in force, destruction beyond imagining would follow.*"
+92,TEXT_REGLAKSAINTCOINACHSFIND_00113_RAMMBROES_000_106,"(-NOAH Report-)*Therefore, any and all dealings with the voidsent are now seen as forbidden. Even the Thaumaturges' Guild, devoted to studying the void, conduct research on a limited scale under strictly enforced regulations.*"

+95,TEXT_REGLAKSAINTCOINACHSFIND_00113_RAMMBROES_000_112,(-NOAH Report-)*Scholars who study the voidsent have long striven to categorize the fiends by brawn rather than species. The result is popularly known as the twelve-tiered voidsent hierarchy.*
+96,TEXT_REGLAKSAINTCOINACHSFIND_00113_RAMMBROES_000_113,(-NOAH Report-)*The voidsent known as the Cloud of Darkness is doubtless in the highest tier of this hierarchy─hence why Emperor Xande entered into a dark covenant with it.*
+97,TEXT_REGLAKSAINTCOINACHSFIND_00113_RAMMBROES_000_114,"(-NOAH Report-)*In both strength and size, the Cloud is unmatched. A voidgate of monumental proportions would be necessary for it to enter our realm. Opening such a rift would, in turn, require a power as massive. Enter, then, the Crystal Tower, and the energy it could produce.*"
+98,TEXT_REGLAKSAINTCOINACHSFIND_00113_RAMMBROES_000_115,"(-NOAH Report-)*Were the Cloud of Darkness to break loose, it would devour all aether and extinguish all light. The world would become as the void.*"

Thus was Allag's lost glory, and the threat it posed the realm, sealed again.*"
+103,TEXT_REGLAKSAINTCOINACHSFIND_00113_RAMMBROES_000_123,(-NOAH Report-)*What was the reasoning behind G'raha Tia's choice? To comprehend this requires knowledge of forgotten Allagan history.*
+104,TEXT_REGLAKSAINTCOINACHSFIND_00113_RAMMBROES_000_124,"(-NOAH Report-)*Although the Crystal Tower fell on the day of the Fourth Umbral Calamity, many Allagans survived the destruction. To them, the place had been a shining beacon. They thus prayed that one day, in the far future, it could bring light and joy to the commonfolk.*"

In closing, it must be noted that the brevity of the adventurers' combat records is due to the fact that I was not permitted to accompany them, thus rendering me unable to provide a detailed account.*"
