I stood upon the very spot I had first awoke in this new place and stared west out to the sea at the island that held the great stronghold known as Himling, or Himring. This was my favorite spot as it gave me hope in the past and I was hoping it would allow me a clear mind for my next task in life when suddenly my wish came true.
Two figures approached me and I immediately knew who they were and the very thought of it caused me to become almost giddy with excitement, a feeling I had not felt in a very long time.
The Blue Wizards, or Ithryn Luin, introduced themselves and were very straightforward when we talked. Their names in Valinor were Alatar and Pallando, and they are Maiar of the Vala Oromë. They had to leave for the East on a quest but I learned that they came to see me for they had the same feeling of excitement as I did when they heard of a mysterious Red Wizard living in Eriador. We ended up discussing many things and I learned much from this encounter and shall continue to learn as I follow my path they had sent me on. I asked them about my past and what they knew about where I came from and they told me that in my world they were known as Time Mages. I was baffled by their claims however I did not doubt them at all since I knew that such a power did exist as it was the reason I ended up here. I learned that they had none of their old power left from my world but they had been reborn when they used the last of it and became knowledgeable in the new powers of this world. It was as if the scales had to be empties in my reservoirs in order to learn the spells of this new energy. They told me that I had a purpose and they sent me on a quest before they departed for the eastern lands and this mission would take me on quite a journey indeed.
I was told of an ancient being named Jinoa. She was a goddess in a past life and this goddess held the power over an entire universe or clan of worlds. When the sun exploded it destroyed everything but Jinoa managed to use all of her energy to take the souls of her people and bind them to her own before she whisked herself away with no direction or path to follow. Jinoa flew blind until she found a world she could safely allow the souls to be free but in freeing them her own soul was diminished. Yet, was then reborn as one of her people who ended up leading the rest to have wonderfully fulfilling lives. When that person died another was born, and so on and so forth, allowing Jinoa to live on through the ages and allow those around her to have happy and wonderful lives.
Then the Rift came and it snatched her away and was never seen again. The people grew full of malice and hatred flowed until they eventually destroyed each other. The years turned to decades and decades to eons until finally the world exploded and turned to dust.
The Blue Wizards told me that it was learned that Jinoa's energy was felt here on this world and one day she would return to a form and it was to be my job to find her. I didn't know what race she was or where in the world I should look first. They left me with only one last clue before they left and it has stuck with me for ages
