这段时间以来, [b]Caldeum[/b]的新一代早已成为了谣言的牺牲品, 关于一个有过失的巫师的谣言。没错，我用了一个十分无礼的称呼，巫师，而非魔法师。看来这些被冠以“开明的施法者”之名的魔法师，在这件事情的观点上显得过于保守了。在我与[b]Yshari[/b]圣所的魔法氏族们的交流中，我成为了极少数人里面知道其中真相的人。在村子里面，关于这个女巫师滥用魔法的谣言早已铺天盖地，真相显得更加弥足珍贵。[/color]
[color=darkslategray]
这个巫师在很小的时候就被送来到这世界上最好的法术之岛,以便于在良好的监护和培育下成长。但似乎在送往[b]Xiansai[/b]之岛的时候，导师们忽略了教授这个小巫师最基本的礼貌行为，而使其变得极为叛逆与粗暴。起初是由氏族中的[b]Zann Esu[/b]教导着她,最终[b]Zann Esu[/b]不得不把其转交给那些以顽固和机械脑而著称的[b]Vizjerei[/b]导师们，[b]Zann Esu[/b]指望这些[b]Vizjerei[/b]导师能稍微对这个目无大小的巫师有点办法。很显然她高估了这些导师们的能力。即便是这些老顽固，也对这个新巫师毫无办法。年轻的巫师天赋造人，她不断地游走在那些危险的法术甚至禁术的边缘，无视任何人的劝告，不断吸取着身边任何对她有用的知识。[/color]
[color=darkslategray]
尽管谣言尚有待考证，但年轻的巫师带着莫名的勇气，只身闯入了臭名昭著的[b]Bitter Depths[/b]——位于圣所地下的深渊.她后来在一间古老的储藏库中被抓获，库中储藏着深渊当中最为古老且危险的符咒，每个符咒都有一触即发的强大魔力。当时伟大的[b]Vizjerei[/b]法师与她见了面，并准备对她问罪时。这个狂妄的巫师又向人们展现了她鲁莽的一面，她选择了明目张胆地攻击[b]Valthek[/b]，而不是乖乖地接受制裁。 在村子里，谣言的夸张程度已经达到了神话级。但事实上，她并不是[b]Yshari[/b]氏族中最具潜力的魔法师之一。在那场与[b]Valthek[/b]的对决中，有许多细节仍然十分不明朗,仍然有待[b]Valthek[/b]的进一步叙述。但有可靠的消息证实，[b]Valthek[/b]明显对这次遭遇战产生了十分大的挫败感，这个狂妄的女巫师稍微用了些小骗术和耍了点花招，就让[b]Valthek[/b]的情绪至今都无法平息下来。还有更明确的消息指出，那场战斗造成了相当大的损失 ，而且大部分都是[b]Valthek[/b]的法术痕迹，年轻女巫师所施展的法术几乎少得可怜，这无疑是对[b]Valthek[/b]的极大讽刺。女巫师在那场战斗之后就逃出了村子，至于逃往何处,无人知晓。[/color]

[font=微软雅黑][size=10.5pt][color=#008000][color=darkslategray]
我的目的并不是警告大家，但我觉得至少应该要有所防范。在这个世界的某处，存在着这样的一个法师，年轻、叛逆、缺乏经验，游走于危险的边缘却悠然自得，不断地学习那些超越她自身的魔法。在很久以前，那些明智的长者为了安全起见，早已经将那些过度危险的魔法从教程中摒弃，但这些禁术却偏偏成为了这位年轻巫师的眼中宝。你能想象一个19岁的少女通过自己的意志而操控时间吗？！[/color]
[color=darkslategray] 邪念才是最可怕的武器。如果可以的话，我希望这个自封为”文明施法”的女巫师不要再涉步[b]Caldeum[/b] …[/color][/color][/size][/font]

From the writings of Abd al-Hazir
Abd al-Hazir is a renowned gentleman, historian, and scholar. He has recently taken up the unprecedented task of investigating, researching, and compiling information about the unique locales and denizens of our world.
Owing to my lack of tolerance for those who would use magic towards their own nefarious ends, many have assumed that I am averse to the practice of the magical arts on a philosophical level. Nothing could be farther from the truth. My quarrel is with those sorcerers who dismiss the ancient traditions and teachings – teachings that have been honed over millennia in order to preserve respect for authority and the rule of law.
Recently the youth of Caldeum have fallen prey to the overblown stories of just such a delinquent wizard. That is correct: I used the uncouth term wizard, not sorcerer. It seems that even the title of a civilized magic wielder is too restrictive for this young upstart. Through my contacts at the Yshari Sanctum of the mage clans, I am one of the few who actually know the truth behind the rumors now sweeping our streets regarding this hellion who flaunts her magic irresponsibly.
This wizard was sent here to spend her formative years under the tutelage of the best mages in the world. Well, it seems they neglected to teach our wizard manners on her native island of Xiansai, for she was a rude and uncooperative student from the very beginning. Originally under the guidance of the Zann Esu mage clan, she was eventually handed over to the Vizjerei in the hopes that their strict and unbending discipline would break her anarchic spirit. Yet even the esteemed Vizjerei instructors were unable to rein her in. She was continually being caught seeking out dangerous and forbidden magics, heedless of the consequences to herself or anyone around her.
Although there is no truth to the tales that she actually ventured into the infamous Bitter Depths below the Sanctum, she was caught in the Ancient Repositories, where the most dangerous incantations are housed for the safety of the public. When confronted by the great Vizjerei mage Valthek and demanded to account for herself, she brazenly attacked him rather than face the punishment merited by her acts. Exaggerated stories of the battle are already being inflated to mythic proportions by the more rebellious of our city's youth, but suffice it to say that she did not actually best Yshari's most powerful mage in single, honorable combat. The details of the encounter remain unclear, as Valthek has yet to regain consciousness, but it has been verified by reliable sources that she relied on trickery and deceit to bring the great man low. I have also been assured that the extensive property damage was chiefly the result of Valthek's magical prowess, not the upstart wizard's. As to where she is now, no one rightly knows, for she fled the city immediately after the encounter.
It is not my goal to alarm, but I find this situation disturbing. We now have a rebellious wizard, young and inexperienced, wandering the world, dabbling in powerful magics she does not understand. Those wiser than you or I determined long ago that certain schools of magic were too dangerous and forbade their practice. It is those magics that this wizard seems determined to explore – magics centered on manipulating the primal forces from which reality is constructed. Imagine, a headstrong nineteen-year-old youth, able to warp time itself to her will! The thought is truly terrifying. It is my honest hope that this self-styled wizard chooses never to return to Caldeum
