***This is a free auxiliary chapter. This is the book Jay was reading. You can skip it and still understand the story, I just thought It would be fun to add. Thanks, Aero182***
<- Extract of a conversation between Olmetrec the Masses and Rewlara the Gatherer. ->
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Olmetrec, why do you create the unending maze with no reward? Do you enjoy their suffering? Are you trying to block them?”
“It is not a block on their path, Rewlara, no…”
“Why then?”
“It doesn’t block them, but keeps them going. Their curiosity drives them to purpose, and their purpose drives them to live… for in their hearts, they wish to be deceived, so they will chase these empty dreams, vein philosophy and rumours through my maze until the day they die… ever chasing but never fulfilled.”
“Why? It seems cruel.”
“They would turn to murder those who have, since they have not.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What about the ones with purpose? Those who have eternal purpose without your sacred maze?”
“They are complete, their lives built on mountains instead of on the seas. They won’t be harmed by the maze dwellers who are preoccupied trying to find what the complete have.”
“Why not make the maze dwellers complete?”
“They are told the truth and they reject it; they have been told countless times - no, to them, the truth is an offence.”
