Cabal of Tranquility
“ | The Cabal of Tranquility can glimpse upon our past. We are the keepers of ancient lessons, listeners of bygone experiences, and heralds of dangers to come. It is fortunate that your Endfield has taken a path different from that paved by the ancients, Endministrator. | ” |
—Xaihi |
The Cabal of Tranquility is a faction on Talos-II. The Cabal is an enigmatic organization dedicated to the study and preservation of ancient knowledge and technologies. Its members engage with cryptic languages and ancient scripts, aiming to unlock and perpetuate the wisdom of the ancients.
Overview
“ | The Cabal would only reveal their research or their latest progress in their great Project Unilingua to those they deemed fit. Most Talosians know of an ancient civilization that existed before ours, whose ephemeral phantom continued to cling to Talos-II. The Cabalists, however, were the only ones capable of conversing with the ancients at great lengths. They would use a language beyond our hearing, each Cabal member serving as a mark that punctuated the land of its ancient existence. | ” |
