====Welcome to the Trials: The Three Keys====
*"''Welcome. You think you found this place. It wants to be found. There are many like me, and so this place serves myriad purpose. One is judgment. In all its connotation. The weight of it as a weapon. Another is death. Inevitable. Relentless. A third is perfection. Flawless destruction. Three keys to unlock irrevocable change. Welcome, Guardian... to the place where everything dies. And begins anew.''"

====First Platform: Judgment====
*"''You're not like the others. You don't hesitate, as judgment falls upon you like the night. Good. Perhaps you understand. Not like the others, the ones who ask — beg — for mercy. Mercy is broken and bleeding. Judgment stands in its place. Of all your whispered questions, I will say this: I am no "Lord Shaxx." I am judgment. Those i serve have seen to it.''"

====Second Platform: Death====
*"''You're not like the others. You ride with death. Not away from it. But what is death to the undying — except, perhaps, a catalyst for change? Do you remember every death, Guardian? I know you've forgotten at least one. I try not to pity you. You wield cosmic power, and you carry the weight of the past around as a shell of armor. You don't understand. You have nothing. No one does.''"

====Third Platform: Perfection====
*"''You're not like the others. You chase perfection — not as children chase the sun. but as a hunter stalks prey. Good. You're not there yet, Guardian. But most extinguish the spark in their chest seeking what you already have: two keys. Continue to seek judgment. Perhaps the final one is within your reach. I pray that it is. For your sake. And theirs.''"

====Flawless Passage: Worthy====
*"''You found it. The third key. It was in front of you all along. One the edge of a blade. At the tip of a bullet. Burning in your Light. You faced judgment relentless, and now you're here. At the end of all things. You... are worthy. When the time comes, seek us out. Watch for us on the filaments of dark matter. In the hydrocarbon pits of distant moons. Listen. In the direction of the Corona-Borealis supercluster. Pierce the Lightless void beyond the northern skies and meditate in the hissing silence. Or do nothing. We are everywhere and nowhere at once. If you don't see us, you're not thinking small enough. Now, go home. Safe harbor is very far away.''"
