An ancient scroll left behind from antiquity. It was originally created when the Old Ancestor transformed two immortal vines. Later, it was carried into the mortal world and vanished without a trace. As the stars shifted and dynasties rose and fell, countless years passed before, by a twist of fate, it came into the hands of a monk. After many twists and turns, he once copied the painting onto a scroll and made a grand vow: anyone destined to see it would experience a past life depicted in the painting. Past and present lives, shifting fortunes, changing times, the vicissitudes of the world, its joys and sorrows, its partings and reunions, its rises and falls.

This is how the Elder Scrolls came about, I realized it
