Scribblings about Lephar
Recently, rumors about Lephar have spread all across Sarpan. Few are certain that Lephar ever existed, or is even alive, and fewer still have claimed to see this mysterious figure.
Some say that a Daeva from Atreia met him near Sarpan, while others say the same Daeva assumed the role of Lephar and now leads the Revolutionaries.
Other rumors still state that this Lephar is an Empyrean Lord, though there is no proof for such things.
All the secret projects that the Lepharists undertook in Atreia have come to light. The shocking experiments on the living, the promises of divinity, all of it revealed.
Secret Laboratories, discredited scientists, and weak-willed humans flocking to the promise of Daevic power in droves.
Far from becoming Daevas... the poor souls became monsters.
A large Lepharist base was discovered in the Alquimia Facility, led by High Priest Esras. It was hoped that the seizure of Esras and the destruction of the base would halt Lepharist research, but it only strengthened their resolve.
A new leader, Zapar, arose and started to absorb or eliminate other existing Lepharist factions. Rallied and emboldened, the Lepharists were stronger than ever.
We were wrong to treat the Lepharists as an unruly mob. They are smart, organized, and certainly have the funding and manpower to support their operations. This is no small matter anymore, though I'm not sure it ever was before.
We were able to turn the minds of some of the Lepharists, at least enough to cooperate with us for promises of safety. It seems not every member is as devoted to the cause as Zapar.
With the aid of these former members, both the Elyos and Asmodian Headquarters have sent large military forces to cull Lepharist activities wherever reports begin to crop up.
The true motivations of the revolutionaries are still unknown. Does Zapar still share the same ideals that began the revolution, or is he another beast entirely?
Right after winning the battle against Tiamat, Kamar was attacked by the Beritra Army and thrown into chaos.
The Lepharists have been known to exploit these times of trial to up their recruitment according to reports from Asmoade and Elysea. We must be vigilant in our reprisal of their activities.
The Reians want no part in these mad experiments. Excuse my hastened scribblings, for I am no patron of the arts. I only hope that some sense can be made from this warning.
