 ## 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.
