It is with great pleasure that I must set My quill to parchment to
congratulate Elostian in discovering the pleasure and powers that can be
gained from devouring another Elder God whole. Your clever scheme in
devouring Elcyrion, or Lacostian, or whichever way it occurred, was
masterful. In My millennia in the Void, I had never considered placating
the fears of others by simply taking a new name that hides the nature of
what has truly happened. I am, I must admit, impressed at how you have
quelled the masses in New Celest with such a simple charade.

I must not get ahead of Myself in congratulating Elostian so eagerly,
however. To those in New Celest, I offer My sincerest apologies if you
have not been appeased with this simple renaming, and indeed see
Elostian as He truly is - a devourer of Gods akin to Myself. I am elated
beyond all measure that you have openly welcomed this Elder God into
your midst, for I know My own reception was less warm. It is a true
testament that you have cast aside such prejudices that were once
evident against My many selves in such a short period of time. I am
pleased that you have cast aside the reckless principles of the
misguided Goddess Terentia, and that you have no further qualms with Me
and My actions. I will look very much forward to the same welcome you
have shown Elostian, for truly We are no different, and stand secure in
the knowledge that I will soon walk your streets openly, and guide you
with My esteemed counsel.
