And lo, Insurgo did mull in the marketplace over the things he had heard, and the things he had seen. Long did he think. He thought of the Sapphire Tunnels sporadic comeback in the war, of the rising of great generals from the populace. He thought of the perfect beings of axiom. He thought the most of the words of Xiuthagurbhahwauhwa. The market flowed around him, but he paid it no heed. He sat perfectly still, thinking for hours, days.
Eventually he reached a conclusion. It was not the conclusion he had hoped to arise upon, but he knew it was what must be done.
He awoke, and called unto Gur'ak, and his acolytes.
"Gur'ak, Re, Tyo-ur, Het, Silent-one. I have decided on what must be done. Alas, I must leave sapphire tunnels for a while- no, do not cry out, for I shall return. Whilst I am gone, you must be as me. You shall teach the people. Teach them what they want, what they need, and what you want them to know. It is vital that you teach them, for the less the gods can over them, the less they can affect them. To aid you in this task, I give you these-" He held up five inferior gems on woven string "-Within each of these gems is portal to the plane of education. Aid the people. Send their cries of help to the gods. Send the most important to me, and I shall hear them. Go forth, my Teachers, continue my work!"
And with that, he dissapeared, leaving the Teachers behind, each clutching an amulet of education.
(Insurgo speaketh unto the Illochicate-Note:Edited)
First he came unto the place where he had seen the Illochicate, and he called unto them. And Iquanova appeared, and he questioned her. He asked of the world, of history, and of the hub. Finnaly he asked; "Can you not come forth to help in my battles?"
But Iquanova sighed, and shook her head. "I may not. We are bound out of this world by more power than you can imagine. Only Our lord Axiom can free us, but he has sworn not to interfere. Even talking to you requires a loophole"
"What loophole?"
"Quantum mechanics- Providing loopholes sine 1962!"
"Er. But seriously, is there no way I can use your power at all?"
"Well, there is a way, but it is dangerous-Our world may be sealed, but the beings of the Hub, they may aid you-"
"I would rather be banished to the underworld (die) a matyr than leave the world to suffer!"
"Very well then, this is what you do-" And Iquanova explained a ritual to Insurgo that would open a portal to the Hub for one fraction of a second. She showed him diagrams, and plants, metals, and gems that were required. Finnaly she said; "Also you shall require knowledge of the arcana- mere gem working will not be enough"
"But the ony source of that knowledge is the Codex!"
"Yes. Yes it is." And the Illochicate dissapeared.
