(-<Emphasis>Nightkin</Emphasis>-)<Emphasis>I am the descendant of demons; a scion of tainted blood. It is for my brethren born into darkness─for the Nightkin─that I pen these words.</Emphasis>
101 107 97 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_250 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_QIB_BOOK_CONTENTS_6_2 I've just finished slogging through the last pages of the <Emphasis>Nightkin</Emphasis>. There were truths I discovered which made it difficult to continue, but amongst a mounting sense of horror...I found hope. (-<Emphasis>Nightkin</Emphasis>-)<Emphasis>The holy men will insist my teachings are madness─the ravings of a deranged killer. But you shall learn that all I scribe henceforth is eldritch truth, and their faith the twisted lie...</Emphasis>

103 109 99 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_ARYA_000_260 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_QIB_XRHUNTIA_BATTLETALK_07 ...And so this man who wrote the <Emphasis>Nightkin</Emphasis> was not merely some disturbed killer, but a mage who had mastered the arts of the ancients. We needn't tarry in this place. I've breathed my fill of moldy parchment...
110 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_261 Exactly so. A century ago in Ishgard, this monster in mortal guise devoured all manner of forgotten texts, teaching himself everything from red magic to Mhachi summoning rituals.
104 111 100 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_262 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_QIB_XRHUNTIA_BATTLETALK_DEAD The secret to his seemingly inexhaustible power lies in his bloodline: he was directly descended from a Mhachi archmagus who had ingested the lifeblood of the voidsent queen Lilith! I'd hoped to die amongst a pile of books...but not like this...
105 112 101 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_263 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_ARYA_000_200 In fact, it was with this very archmagus that the vile practice of infusing oneself with voidsent blood first began. I believe I told you how the red mages later outlawed these rituals, but the damage had already been done... The book was there, then! Just as Midnight said it would be! ...Oh, but where is X'rhun? You didn't leave him at the library, did you?
113 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_264 ...Lilith's insidious energies had been passed on to the archmagus's heirs. This clan of aether-drinking spellcasters became known as those who were born into darkness─the Nightkin.
106 114 102 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_265 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_210 The revelation which truly shook me however was yet to come. I discovered that Lambard is─was─a scion of the Nightkin clan. And, quite likely, so are you, Arya. You did well in there, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>! I've never known acquiring a book from a library to be such a strenuous endeavor. ...May I see the tome?
107 115 103 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_266 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_220 The book's author was of the Calowise family─a surname shared by Lambard. Yes, the author does certainly seem convinced of his demonic heritage. I can see how the clergy of the time would have passed these writings off as a heretic's delusion, but the spellcraft contained within is aught but incoherent rambling.
108 116 104 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_267 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_221 With no small amount of trepidation, I determined to look once more into your family records...and learned that the Calowise name was also prevalent on your mother's side. This can be no coincidence. Within his memoirs, this mage has provided specific instructions on the workings of forbidden sorcery. Little wonder that Lambard spent so much of his time studying the tome's secrets!
130 126 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_275 He stood unflinching before the fiendish queen he had summoned, and forged with her a bargain of blood and darkness. Once the archmagus had partaken of her essence, however, he entrapped her inside a heavily glyphed box. Her material form thus captured, Lilith was unable to return to her shadowy realm.
131 127 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_276 It was written that her imprisonment on this plane of existence was a necessary act, lest the potency of her blood begin to wane. Do you understand what this means, Arya?
132 128 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_ARYA_000_277 ...I think so. The corruption inside me will last only as long as the voidsent queen remains in our world.
133 129 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_ARYA_100_277 Oh, I see... We need to find that box and banish Lilith back into the void!
134 130 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_278 Exactly right! Defeat the voidsent and the curse upon your blood is lifted!
135 131 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_100_278 Of course, a creature of Lilith's stature would ordinarily present a near-insurmountable challenge. We are fortunate, then, that the summoner bound her essence to a feeble vessel to prevent her from manifesting her full power. Even we few should stand a chance against this lesser incarnation!
136 132 TEXT_JOBRDM650_02585_XRHUNTIA_000_279 Now, it appears the author succeeded in tracking down Lilith's prison. And though the book makes no mention of the event, it is entirely possible that the box passed into his possession.
