Read the first memory shard

I have seen it.
The night of long darkness that swallows stars whole,

the comet which orbited around the North Star.
The countless, blood-red eyes glinting from within.

Quest Walkthrough
Step 1
(You hear something, as if someone is whispering quietly nearby.)
Step 2
Quest Text (The kyve is enormous, and looks exactly like
the kyve held in my hand.)
Step 3
Objective Read the first memory shard
Summary I have seen it.
The night of long darkness that swallows stars whole,

the comet which orbited around the North Star.
The countless, blood-red eyes glinting from within.
Step 4
Objective Read the second memory shard
Summary After lying awake for 7 days and 7 nights,
I was able to determine their expected date of arrival.

However, when 49 rotations around the sun had come to pass,
I knew my flesh would've grown too old and weak.
Step 5
Objective Read the third memory shard
Summary Auto log
...

Forced entry of research facilities.
Black Stone NPC Knowledge Item inventory depleted.

Physical regeneration unavailable.
Shutting down.
Step 6
Objective Who or what are you?
Summary (I am a piece of memory left behind by Rux Maha Dehkia.
The final algorithm to activate when all plans have failed.)

(I'm based on Rux Maha Dehkia's personality,
but I cannot become Rux himself. Just like... you.)

Who am I?

You are Rux Maha Dehkia, probably.
However, you are also not Rux Maha Dehkia.

For he uploaded all of his memories and personality within the kyve.
And rid himself of his flesh that couldn't stand against time.

That body you inhabit to walk with both feet planted on the earth
is but a vessel regenerated from the information saved within the kyve.

Without the kyve, you probably wouldn't exist.
Therefore, if the kyve exists, you too shall exist.
Step 7
Objective What are you going on about?
Summary It would seem there is no algorithm for self-awareness.
Yet a clear loss of memory is apparent. I wonder, was it your narcissism that helped restore it?

However, you, indeed, are Rux Maha Dehkia.
For there is only one of you in this world to serve as proof.

As mentioned earlier, as long as the kyve remains in existence,
you are immortal and shall live for eternity. Probably...
Why did I wake up now?

Rux Maha Dehkia's first life
was dedicated to storing this place with Black Stones.

Without a source of power, Protokea came to a halt.
Up until the White Witch made her way here.

Thanks to her, the trajectories of your first and second lives
never met, which actually was quite the fortunate turn of events, indeed.

No, maybe the timelines would've never merged.
For you are not Rux Maha Dehkia.
Step 8
Objective First life?
Summary Yes. O Edana who opposed the flow of time.
O glorious prophet, who has discovered the very foundation of worldly salvation.

To you, the past is not the cause of the present.
Therefore, the future is not the result of the present.

Only in the time where you live and breathe,
is where your fate breathes alongside you.
Step 9
Objective What are the blood-red eyes?
Summary Your hatred,
your affections,

the very invader who destroyed your life,
and the very companion who saved it.

An invader to you who are not Edana,
and a companion to you who are not Rux.
Step 10
Objective You keep muttering nonsense.
Summary The ancient will of Rux Maha Dehkia...
is together with the will of Edana.
Step 11
Objective The life of Rux is also my destiny.
Summary Memories can be forgotten, but faith is eternal.
The faith of Rux, Edana, and yours transcended time

to meet here in this point and place.
Your hands shall complete the predestined fate.
