## Philosopher of Wisdom
![alt text](spring_in_the_sky/philosopher_of_wisdom.png)  

I commend you for reaching me, chosen one.
My name is Giltoriyo,
one of the Four Philosophers.
I am the Philosopher of Knowledge.

The Mother failed time and time again.
The 1st children could not see for what
the Mother truly longed,
wanting only her powers.
The 2nd children were destroyed in the civil
var of the Giants.

The 3rd children were only interested
in their own powers.
The 4th children were a race of men
in the form of fish.

The 5th children sought the secret
to life and death,
once again begetting a power hungry race.
The 6th children were dolls of clay made by
the 5th children.

Alas, too many were made, igniting a war that
extended all the way to the Surface.
After some time, we,
the 7th children were born of the earth.

We came to know these ruins through and
through, ultimately realizing that we would not
be able to grant the Mother's wish.

Thus ve gave no memory of the Mother to ye,
the 8th children.
We believed that only those who perceived
the Mother as "ruins" could truly defeat her.

The Mother's flesh spans the whole of these
ruins. It is considered impossible to defeat her.
You must attack her soul.
Summon the Mother's soul here, and force her
to take Shape.
The technique has been laid out for you.

It is a hidden technique that we the 7th
children created...
I Shall tell thee how it is done.

Drive 8 wedges into the Mother's body.
Take the Djed Pillar and Magatama Jewel in
hand and recite the mantra.
The mantra has been inscribed upon the
markers.
Drive the wedges from the heels.
## Philosopher of Death

I commend you for reaching me, chosen one.
I am Alsedana, one of the Four Philosophers.
I am the Philosopher of Death.
I will reveal to you one of the mysteries of
these ruins.

We have long slumbered to grant the Mother's
wish. The Mother descended to this land
from the sky.
We do not know from where exactly she came.
But the Mother wished to return home.

The Mother had lost her ability to move,
and so gave birth to many children.
This is the origin of humanity.
Mankind was born to return the Mother
to the skies.

They gained knowledge in these ruins,
departed to the world outside,
and searched for the means to take her back
while themselves thriving.
Yes...
these ruins are the Mother herself.

It is impossible to send the Mother home
to the skies.
If her wish cannot be granted,
the best we can do is to give her
eternal sleep.

## Philosopher of Power

I commend you for reaching me, chosen one.
My name is Samaranta,
one of the Four Philosophers.
I am the Philosopher of Power.

The Mother's soul sleeps within the Shrine of
the Mother.
That is where the last Ankh lies.
The last red light will reveal its true form.

You who have traveled through these ruins--
your strength will put the Mother
to rest.
We the Four Philosophers have been blocking
three paths.
My path has been opened.

Seek Fobos and Giltoriyo for the other paths.

## Philosopher of Life

I commend you for reaching me, chosen one.
I am Fobos, one of the Four Philosophers.
I am the Philosopher of Life.

The Mother's power is to create life.
In the past, there were those that sought this
power, trying to imitate it.
Tiamat, Nüwa...
None could match the Mother.

The Mother's power can be obtained from
the secret elixir of life.
The elixir is in the hands of the pure and
mischievous spirit.
You must visit her.

Recite to her the incantation of life,
Birth.
To those that trick you, recite the incantation
of eternal rest,
Death.

The Mother's powers cannot be obtained unless
you have the true secret elixir.
