Marcri's Journal
July 21, 2543 545o3
I've decided to begin a journal before I start my research on these mysterious objects I've found. My first finding is of a small shard of a magic rock I do not know of.

I have found a stone with dim, aqua-green writing on it. I feel strong Qyu magic emitting from it, this is surely no ordinary stone.

I have found seven more of these objects, each of them appear to be different. I wonder what these mean.

I have found a large stone with more writing on it. This time, it seems to be laid out in the form of a sentence. Unfortunately, the characters are too destroyed for me to read anything.

I found more stones, I now have 32. I found 18 of them on an isolated planet, some of them were stuck to the boulders there, although, they seemed to be made out of a different rock than the boulder itself.

I lined up the rocks next to each other and they began glowing! The more I moved, the more it dimmed, yet the closer I was, the more it's mere presence stung me. It began whispering, however, the whispering appeared behind me! I suspect this was a form of spell. I believe this may be a form of ancient thaumaturgy. This is a big discovery.

After lining up more rocks, I discovered a new form of spell these things can create. I felt my body freeze and I felt some force crawling inside my body, like a parasite. It disappeared quickly, but that was still strange. This may be a form of torture used a long, long time ago. I can only imagine how much more powerful that would've been if these runes weren't so old.

The Sprout of Life, Venid, has begun assisting me in my research. She discovered 9 runes buried deep in the confines of Mizereye, a location on planet Xi'yuku. She has warned me to be careful regarding testing out new spells.

I discovered more runes in nebulae structures, these seem less dim than the others. I have decided to set off on a journey to find more runes, I most likely will not waste time writing down my discoveries until it is over.

I have just returned from a restless expedition of searching for more runes. I have found thousands of runes, and over a hundred of those stones with sentence-structured writing on them. They seem to be a part of a journal of some kind, like this one.

After inspecting the journals, I have discovered what may be a word. More specifically, a name. My name. This is groundbreaking. I have attempted to translate five of the letters.
