Saraxis Kortifex Von List Krafft Bellekar
Krafft explains the nature of Rune Magic to the Special Forces Team.
Transcript:
Krafft: This is Krafft. I want to talk about Dark Aether runes -- those little symbols you see all around you.
Krafft: I first saw them on loose pages from the Tome of Rituals that I tracked down for Die Wahrheit.
Krafft: Then we found them inscribed at all the sites where we found the Dark Aether artifacts.
Krafft: I could see they fit no known human alphabet, but some of my colleagues attributed them to the ancient Aryans. Their reasons were obvious.
Krafft: Von List answers to Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler, whose belief in German superiority is the core of the Nazis’ poisonous ideology.
Krafft: Himmler wanted Die Wahrheit to find evidence the Aryan race invented the hallmarks of civilization -- including written language.
Krafft: But kissing Himmler’s backside would not change the facts: these runes were not Aryan.
Krafft: They were, however, used in mystical rites -- as far back as Egypt’s Fourth Dynasty, and as recently as the 1920s.
Krafft: Bellekar has since explained to me they are the basis for Dark Aether rune magic.
Krafft: She is endeavouring to teach me their use, but I fear I have been a poor pupil.
Krafft: Some runes are associated with specific demons, like Kortifex or Saraxis. Others...? Well, I suppose that remains to be seen.
