No matter how much you lose, from food, to your senses, to even your loved ones... until the Black Rabbit takes you, you must never give up. I’d been wandering for a long, long time before I found you, because giving up is simply not an option.
Let me tell you a tale, one of a Warren once strong. One of a warren destroyed by arrogance.
My old warren valued strength above all else- if you didn’t have it, you were trash. Does were neglected when food was scarce, for only the Owsla mattered. We were encouraged to actively seek Elil, in the hopes that we could destroy them... our Rah was strong, but he was a fool. The does became weak, and our tunnels were no longer dug. Without them, we could not rest, so all were weaker- tensions ran high, and the bloodlust no longer only ran towards Elil. The rabbits began to fight amongst themselves... and that was why disaster struck. Our warren wasn’t deep enough to save us when the Elil, drawn by the scent of blood spilled by our own warren, struck. It was slaughter- and me? I was simply lucky... even then I was old. Worthless. So I was to be gathering food for others.. when I returned to my old warren, none were left alive. That sight... it will haunt me to the end of my days. The Disaster is why I can See the way I do now. I have knowledge, and ability, but it came at a horrible price... Roo, I hope that I can keep you from making the same mistakes of my old warren.
Do not forget the necessity of balance.
You wish to know more of my actual journey? Well... I don’t know how much I could tell you. There is not much that would make sense to a mind like yours. You see... the Black Rabbit followed me on my journey. She walked beside me as I went, accompanying me after taking the souls of the rest of my warren. I should not have survived that day, and the Black Rabbit did not know that I had, in the beginning. I believe that is why she began to take my sight, although I suppose it is a blessing, after the carnage I witnessed... yet it was not my time. She took my sight mistakenly, believing I had no more use to see on this plane, but realized her mistake, and gifted me with the Sight, to see spirits, to see beyond. She walked beside me as I ventured here, keeping me safe.
While I am blessed, I am also cursed, to both See, and be Blind.
The world simply faded away as I walked on, Black Rabbit above me...
