"According to the myths of the half-beasts who have made the treacherous journey across the sea, a cursed star once fell upon the land of Atonia many thousands of years ago. They say it killed most of the people who lived there, and fused those who survived with the local wildlife. They do, in other words, believe themselves to somehow be of shared kinship with us, but I see little reason to believe these stories."

- written account by Herok the Historian

"The half-men believe that we are of same birth, Renn and beast, and they also tell of a falling star and a curse that is to have befallen their lands long ago. This, they tell me, is the reason why they have traveled to our shores."

- written account by Eohiss, Court Chronicler to Miria II and Miria III
