The Tower of Sages, Divide

The atmosphere at the Tower of Sages is odd.

You know that the Cont. Huan is under the guidance of the Sage Procyon, and the Cont. Pastur is under the guidance of the Sage Capella, do you not?

It seems those two have sent word proclaiming independence from the Tower of Sages.

• Independence from the Tower of Sages?

An official notice was sent to each polis with the following content.

As the two Sages have expressed their differences

war in Nevareth is regrettably inevitable.

Fighters must decide their own path of righteousness.

• Do you mean to say that Nevareth will be plunged into war?

Well. I, myself, am still confused.

However, as the Seven Sages have acted for so long as one entity to maintain peace, such a reckless war shouldn't arise.

But, it seems that the Sage Capella and the Sage Procyon will no longer share the same view.

Is it because they have they have changed from Sages to ambitious politicians?

• Surely, their lust for power will not cause widespread war in Nevareth?

Though I don't believe that Nevareth will come to see such bloodshed any time soon,

it seems clear that war will surely break out at some point.

It's said that although the two Sages helped each other to maintain their respective positions as continental leaders, they also engaged in fierce competition at the same time.

All to become the top power.

• To become the top power... (accepts the quest)

As you are also a fighter of Nevareth, you may have to choose the side for your allegiance.

First, just try to go inside the door of the Warp Gate with this official notice

You can hear detailed explanations from Black Bard

You should begin with the previous generation of Sages Sirius, the Sages Rigel and Aldebaran all of whom have disappeared in The Sage Tower.

And now, as the Sages Capella and Procyon have declared their independence, does this spell the end of the Tower of Sages..?

• Receive the official notice from the Tower of Sages.

As you are also a fighter of Nevareth, you may have to choose the side for your allegiance.

First, just try to go inside the door of the Warp Gate with this official notice

You can hear detailed explanations from Black Bard

You should begin with the previous generation of Sages Sirius, the Sages Rigel and Aldebaran all of whom have disappeared in The Sage Tower.

And now, as the Sages Capella and Procyon have declared their independence, does this spell the end of the Tower of Sages..

• Receive the official notice from the Tower of Sages.

As I see you have that official notice, you must have heard.

The time has come. Now, war is unavoidable.

As I said before, this is a necessary evil that Nevareth must face in order to open a true Age of Humans.

I will now give you information that can impact your important choice that may change your destiny.

Thus, please listen with the utmost care.

• Listen carefully to what Black Bard has to say.

The reason why the two have decided to enter this conflict is due to the Legacy of the Sages remaining at the Tower of Sages.

The Legacy of the Sages includes all the various knowledge, wealth, and items left by each successive generation of Sages ever since the time of Saint Valentine.

Capella and Procyon have begun their outright opposition in the effort to lay claim to this legacy.

• Why do they want the Legacy of the Sages?

I'll begin by telling you about Capella's position.

They assert that Nevareth today is plunged in chaos and rife with myriad ambitions.

In such an atmosphere, any release of the Legacy of the Sages would result in the formation of a new privileged class, and fighting would arise everywhere.

In such a harsh world, those who are not of the powerful and top ranks would become alienated.

• So, how do they propose to use the Legacy of the Sages?

The Capella federation wants to take away the Legacy of the Sages and, after sufficient research of it in the academies, to distribute it evenly between the people.

In addressing contradictory claims that that would in turn make the academies a sort of privileged class,

they have refuted it simply by saying that scholars exist for the people and whether something is known early or late, it will all be known to everyone in the end.

Then, do you want to hear the assertions of Procyon's side.

• Listen to the reason why Procyon wants the Legacy of the Sages.

Procyon wishes to use the Legacy of the Sages to mold a single most outstanding leader.

As a leader of superior strength and wisdom, that leader would be the legitimate successor to Saint Valentine and continue the work of the Tower of Sages.

To him, only one strong Sage is needed. Those who benevolently tend to and wait for the development of unfitting leaders are unnecessary.

• Wouldn't a single strong leader be similar to the Lord of Destruction?

Naturally, there has been such confutation.

However, contrary to the pre-ordained birth of the Lord of Destruction,

according to Procyon's assertion, this leader could be anyone who receives education and exhibits the most outstanding skill.

As such, for this education, the Legacy of the Sages would be required.

It is claimed that the subtle feuding among a select few of power, namely the Seven Sages, has caused Nevareth to stagnate without development for a long time.

• As such, what is the justice that they assert?

Capella and Procyon.

It is difficult to say who is right or who is wrong. If it must be classified, it can be said that either both are right or both are wrong.

As they have declared independence, they cannot be called Sages any more.

Will you hear about the leader of the Cont. Pastur, Capella,

and the leader of the Cont. Huan, Procyon?

If you wish, you can also choose your allegiance now.

• Listen to more about Capella.
• Listen to more about Procyon.
• Choose my allegiance.

Capella is a very shrewd woman.

Based on scholarship and modernism, she negates all the old things of the past.

In particular, she asserts that all the talk of Saint Valentine and the Lord of Destruction must be discarded.

At the same time, she actively supports research into new battle styles.

She says that we must escape from the shadow of the Honorable Age, and that while we may face a time of trial and error, it would all be in the name of development.

• Listen to more about Capella.

Procyon is a very strong person.

He understands all magic discovered to this day and is capable of using it.

In addition, he dreams of a Nevareth led by an exceptional ruler who reigns with an iron fist in such a way that

the people will have no other worries and can simply follow along in order to live well.

• Listen to more about Procyon.

Have you decided? Make a careful choice as, barring any special circumstances, you cannot change sides once your selection has been made.

If you shall not choose now, you are free to take some more time for thought and come back later.

• I shall choose now.
• I need some time to think.

She dreams of a Nevareth where all are equal.

She believes that politics of the people and for the people must arise.

In following, she asserts that the previously privileged Tower of Sages is no longer needed.

As people can live under their own means, making Nevareth self-reliant, she argues that the relics of the past are all unnecessary.

• He's saying that Capella disowns the role of the Tower of Sages.

His basic stance is that the Tower of Sages should be taken over.

However, the ideology should remain in place while a shift in the role would be inevitable.

He believes that the time of chaos and uncertainty can be quelled by a single excellent and strong leader.

That leader should be none other than the most outstanding Sage. As a Sage, he is also a politician and a father to the world.

• Procyon believes the Tower of Sages should be taken over.

She says that the Tower of Sages and the polises should open information previously restricted to the public, and that all people should be allowed to pursue their areas of interest.

In so doing, her goal is to realize an equal Nevareth where all can reap results justified by their efforts.

• An open society in which results are justified by effort...

As for such a single Sage, he states that it can be anyone in Nevareth who has received excellent education and exhibits the most outstanding qualities.

He believes that during the time that power was shared by the Seven Sages, their subtle antagonism and feuding caused Nevareth to miss opportunities for further development.

In following, he is organizing a unified polis government under the lead of a single Sage.

• So, he is organizing a unified polis government led by a single Sage.

In addition, she says that such talk of the Lord of Destruction and all-powerful cores are nothing more than figments of the ignorance rooted in fear of those in the past.

Huh huh... In our current situation, it would certainly be nice if such were all lies. In any case, her assertions are quite aggressive and unconventional.

Her views may even reflect most closely what the people of Nevareth desire.

• He is also saying that she refutes all talk from the past.

With the concentration in one domain of the previously dispersed resources, early and special education programs can be efficiently instituted.

And, as the talent of Nevareth expands through such systematic education, the competition to decide the successor will become more intense.

• So it will be a society in which anyone of ample ability can achieve the top.

If sufficient education to expand the understanding of the Force is provided and logic and reason realized,

she believes that heresy will disappear as its basis on groundless theories and lies packaged under the name of religion is revealed.

• Realizing logic and reason through education...

Though both Capella and Procyon emphasize the importance of education, they differ in one fundamental aspect.

Capella strives for equal education that will promote synergy and subsequent development.

On the contrary, Procyon emphasizes education geared toward developing a single most outstanding leader.

• It seems the approaches to education of the two Sages are quite different.

Her ultimate wish if for all people to be able to freely use the Force.

For this reason, education is a key facilitator for her vision. And for educational equality, the privileged class must disappear.

The most representative of such a privileged class is the Tower of Sages.

• The privileged class, the Tower of Sages, must end for such equality.

Neither can be said to be wrong.

The children who are educated under either vision will surely escape the restraints of the previous information restrictions

to become new talent in a new age.

Of course, this is if the Sages do keep their promises.

Huh huh. Though I may appear indifferent in saying this, I have the same level of trust in both those ambitious Sages.

She states that the Tower of Sages should be dissolved with the various polises uniting to carry out its role instead.

In this way, the efficient re-distribution and sharing of resources and wealth can be achieved.

For this, there is a need for an organization. This organization would be a council of representatives from each polis selected by a popular vote.

This is an expression that shows that there should be nothing more to such a position than the current role of the polis mayor.

• A council of polis representatives voted in by the people is necessary.

To sum things up,

Today's privileged class-based world with such institutions as the Sages, academies, polis mayors, etc.

should be converted to a world where the educated, reasonable people of Nevareth stand at the center. That is the moral code and justice being asserted by Capella's federation.

The reason why the two have decided to enter this conflict is due to the Legacy of the Sages remaining at the Tower of Sages.
