Several papers piled up on the desk in Drake's study room. Hope was watching the pile of yellow notes in boredom and disappointment. She never thought that there would be so much to read, and almost everything was nonsense and bullshit.
Hope sighed, grabbing the first few papers on the top of the pile and bringing them closer so she could read. The woman had already spent many days in this study room, trying to find something useful regarding Aegis.
When Hope almost got to the bottom of the pile, there was finally something relatively interesting to read. And, incredibly, it made sense.
-----
The mythology of tribal people identifies Aegis with the future establishment of a new reigning dynasty marked by Hope and Equality for humans, beasts, and monsters. Prophecies state that our world, Sundac, will be destroyed if Aegis doesn't fulfill its duty by defeating the current ruling dynasty and assuming the throne.
