By Which It Is Known: A Most Illuminating Story
What Sort Of Thing It Is: An Imposition of Limitations
What Social Contract It Is Bound To: Null
Color: You Don't Know What You Might Miss Until That Day: You Cannot Find It
How It Looks: A Most Illuminating Story: a book bound in skin - of what animal you do not wish to ask - a papyrus folio containing a scribbling scrawl in discomfitingly brown ink. It is, in truth, a most illuminating story, full of portraits and illustrations to accompany Its account. By all sight It is just an innocuous work, and that brings to It only additional discomfort, for Its faculty at ruination is all-surpassing. Allow your optics to fall upon Its word, and you grant It facility within your mind. Allow your sight Illumination, and walk away a partial soul.
A man stands guard to It, to propound Its word, his outfit worn and dull, caducity dripping from his old, frail limbs. A hat sits on his skull, stars and moons fraying from magic fabric into normal string. This man has no honorific, and in point of fact has no nomination at all. A staff, built from solid wood and inlaid gold, is his only tool, but his skill in combat is a match to mighty warriors, and all did kowtow to It.
What It Can Do: Suffusion of Illumination is a rapid path, and a mind It has bound is not simply nor comfortably unbound. For traps crouch subliminal within Its unctuous words. Most hazardous among it all, a conman, a charlatan, a hoodwinking phony of a symbol, its basic quality of fraud! A faulty claimant to that fifth position, its contamination blocks minds from grasping or assimilating any notion containing actuality - that is, containing that scion in truth to our fifth position in our classical syllabary. Such is an Illumination's handicap: an inability to fathom truth. But It, too, sustains Its own. Illumination in a mind robs it of soul, of spirit, and of notions involving our common scion. But in turn It grants ability, capacity, capability, control, cunning and dominion, all for just a symbol... why abstain?
Biography: Do not, on any grounds, allow a wizard to draft a lipogram.
