Thirty-fourth piece recorded by The Raconteur. The Historical Recordings of the Raconteur, brought to you by The Project in association with the Universal Cohort of Theoretical Histories and the Ecumenical Education Endeavor, will be on a short hiatus after this episode. Additional recordings are being decoded every day, but the difficult and laborious work does require time. We have been eternally grateful to all who have listened, and those who have a thirst for knowledge of the past. Be sure to subscribe to keep apprised of any updates.

“They say it is an unforgivable sin to wallow in despair, for there is always hope when God is present in your fellow man. But what is one to do but despair, when their hope becomes their torment?”

Thirteenth piece recorded by The Raconteur. We here at The Project have been so pleased to be able to share these historical recordings with the public. While there are some schools of thought that disregard the study of history, often citing that ridiculous adage uttered by that charlatan [REDACTED], “Today cannot be lighted by yesterday’s sun,” we believe that without understanding that which came before, we are at risk of falling victim to avoidable calamity. We hope that our efforts can help to stanch the flow of this sadly growing movement, and that our own creed might become the creed of all, “May ignorance never be prized.”

“The construct of society has ever been a choke on the flow of man’s desires. The sad truth however, is that the construct is an illusion, and those who are subject to its limits are those who cannot see the ones who loom above, tugging on invisible strings.”

Twenty-ninth recording of The Raconteur. Our illustrious Curator has come to formulate a theory about The Raconteur, but remains a very guarded and empirically minded individual, refusing to share without proper evidence to support it. While the other members of The Project spend hours in speculative discussion, Curator simply looks on with a sly smirk. But we all can’t help but wonder: Who was the man called The Raconteur? And who gave him that name?

“It’s a remarkable thing how the most generous are always the ones from which the most is demanded. For when they find out that you’re giving, they’ll never stop coming back to take. Even after you’re dead.”

Twelfth piece recorded by The Raconteur. We still know next to nothing about the “Inimitable Masako” to which The Raconteur always refers. We aren’t sure if it was a era, a country, a city, or a person. But it is clear that he had a great reverence for the music they created, which is apt, as the ability to create music has become such a universally recognized requirement for greater intelligence.

“It is natural that a babe should suckle of its mother. For a mother is naturally gifted with the ability to provide. However, at some point, a babe’s thirst must be quenched, lest it begin to suckle more than just milk.”

Twenty-second recording made by The Raconteur. When the satellite was recovered twelve years ago, most antiquarians believed it to date back to the Epoch of Renewal. However, evidence has now led us to believe that a great regression in technology occurred following the end of the Epoch of Profanation. This, paired with the recent discovery of similarly designed technologies within the Profanation Epoch’s stratum has spurred us to revise our theory, and place the launch of the satellite at the tail end of the Epoch of Profanation.

“The course of one’s life can be determined and diverted by so many forces. Some forces interior, some exterior. But whatever the cause, invariably the traveler is left with naught but one perilous question: What might have been?”
