[1] I've been wondering about something.
The Tome of Wisdom is my most important possession. It describes the eight Virtues of the way of Paragon. Understanding those Virtues and mastering them leads to enlightenment. Anyone can follow the way, but there is a catch - the Tome is written in an unknown language. Only those who are unhappy with their current state of being, those who seek improvement and guidance, can understand what the words mean.
Anyone interested in trying to read the Tome of Wisdom? You could think of it as a challenge, or maybe a way to find something new about yourself.
[2] [Raynor is busy working on the damages to the Paragon, and while he's doing so, he's listening to another power metal song. But this time, he's doing so on headphones. As a side effect, he's humming it to himself.
If you can call that humming. Not only is it pretty loud, but it's absolutely wretched. His sense of rhythm is awful so it sounds nothing like the original song, and every other note is either missing or a false one. His attempts at lyrics sound like unholy screeching more than his normal voice, and individual words are almost impossible to decipher.
Stop this travesty?]

Enlightenment huh? Sounds interesting.
no subject
[Yeah, Raynor is kinda surprised about this guy, but he's not going to say no.]
Which part do you want to try? The beginning, random page, or a specific chapter? There are chapters on each virtue: valor, honesty, compassion, honor, justice, sacrifice, spirituality, and humility.
no subject
Just... flip to a random page. Just hearing about probably won't do much for me.
[Maybe it was the realization that things were coming to a head for him... maybe he was just looking for a way to get away from those voices in his head... maybe he was just bored. Honestly... there was no telling why he wanted to do this...]
no subject
[The page describes the virtue of Valor. Valor is pure courage, the determination to stand strong in the face of adversity. Valorous individuals will not let fear stop them from doing what they believe in, and won't waste an opportunity because they hesitated to act. Valor dictates to stand strong against your enemies, and escape only if doing so would cause no harm you could otherwise prevent.
Their courage and strength of will grants those who would master the virtue of Valor amazing physical prowess and skill. It's a virtue associated with action, first and foremost.
That's the gist of what's written there. But can Luger read any of it?]
no subject
[He surprisingly enough...CAN. As wretched a person as Luger was... a person can get sick of just wandering around blindly with an acceptance for life's cruelties forced onto him by his illnesses and the terrors from beyond.]
... Gott... is it always this preachy?
