Ailith on Wombgifts
Warrior: Can you explain where these Wombgifts came from?
Witch: Care to explain these Wombgifts to me?
Sorceress: From where did these Wombgifts originate?
Ranger: Still not sure I trust these Wombgifts. What are they, exactly?
Huntress: I sense there’s nowt natural about these Wombgifts.
Mercenary: These Wombgifts… do I wanna know?
Monk: Though I am familiar with their function, I’ve never quite understood Wombgifts.
Druid: I dare nae ask… but curiosity gets the best o’ me. What are these… Wombgifts?
Duelist: [DNT] Shadow: [DNT] Templar: [DNT] Marauder: [DNT] Ailith: They are not native to Wraeclast, if that’s what you mean.
Ailith: [DNT] Shadow: [DNT] Ailith: The enemy were not always as they are now. The Dreamer has shown us this. They once carried each other across vast plains. Held each other through immense storms. They faced all manner of perils together. The Genesis Tree… Wombgifts… even the blood of the enemy, are traces of what they once were. I do not know how they became what they are now. But I suspect they dabbled with intrinsic details of life best left untouched.
Warrior: You make them sound almost human. It’s hard to fathom that they were once something like us.
Witch: I understand the temptation.
Sorceress: It is hard to imagine them as anything other than the ravenous horde they are now.
Ranger: Meddling with things they don’t understand. Perhaps they’re more human than they look.
Huntress: Just like the Vaal.
Mercenary: Ain’t that always the way.
Monk: I cannot imagine a time when the enemy was so… different. Their rage… their hunger. It feels core to their existence.
Druid: The fundamentals of existence… leave that to the Sisters Three to interpret. Only fools delve so deep!
Duelist: [DNT] Shadow: [DNT] Templar: [DNT] Marauder: [DNT] Ailith: I suggest you not dwell on it too deeply. Whatever they once were, they are something else entirely now.
Ailith: Then take it as a cautionary tale.
Ailith: I agree… but in any case…
Ailith: I wouldn’t go that far, but…
Ailith: And we’ve seen how that ended up.
Ailith: So it would seem.
Ailith: Yet this is what the Dreamer has implied to us. In any case…
Ailith: It appears so.
Ailith: [DNT] Ailith: [DNT] Ailith: [DNT] Ailith: [DNT] Shadow: [DNT] Ailith: [DNT] Ailith: I choose to believe Wombgifts are remnants of better times in their history.
