Warring Heaven

Pride-Fuelled Fault

Author's Note:

The character translating to fire was one of the first to be identified when studies of the language began to develop. Its prevalence within the Nightmare Ruins fragments initially led some to believe they were detailing a catastrophe of sorts, perhaps a war, while others posited they may instead be a set of instructions for the forging of metals or tools, explaining their peculiar structure. It was only later that it was established how the inscriptions mainly use the term as a name, a fact which is often cited as evidence by those who believe the inscriptions contain myth and folklore.
