This page contains content that was removed from ATLYSS.
The Lexicon was a tool that revealed small text excerpts when standing near a specific location. These excerpts gave relative context to the world and lore of ATLYSS.
Lexicon entries could be found across the world, usually through stone tablets that appear to have engravings on them. Players could use their lexicon upon reaching one of these entries. The lexicon would glow and prompt the player to use their
Open Lexicon (T) key. The Lexicon mechanic has been reworked into the dialogue system: lexicon lore tablets in locations like Sanctum and the Catacombs are now signs that can be read with the normal interact key.
Lexicon Entries
NOTE: These entries are ordered by the location that they're found in and the suspected sequence of how they should be read.
Location: Southern Sanctum Entrance
As stray souls fall to the whims of darkness, they will be given another chance to prove themselves again.
Location: Sanctum Tower Library
The creation of this world, "Atlyss", was a divine solution to give the dead another chance to prove themselves worthy to live and prosper. Once proven, they are given a choice to stay or rest eternally.
Location: Sanctum Tower Library
Before the Shattering, the world held the former pieces of the land together in mystical stitches. I must find ways to salvage this form at the best of my ability... Or else no living being here will never find a way to leave where they are.
Location: Sanctum Tower Library
The "Sky Whale", an ancient God of the world, seems to have had some influence in the foundation of the mystic energies that surround us. Could it be possible that the Guardians have formed from it?
Location: Sanctum Tower Library
Mystic Study A1 - "Prism": Ancient beings who pre-dated our existance as Guardians used this method to protect themselves from the evil spirits who roamed during the night. Unfortunately, they now exist as the undead within the Catacombs.
Location: Sanctum Tower Library
Mystic Study A2 - "Imbue": It seems the arcane magics collaborate to form into Spirits when quickly clumped together. These Spirits unleash a tethered boon of power from the Guardian to the Caster. The appearance of the Spirit changes depending on the Guardian's appearance.
Location: Sanctum Tower Library
Mystic Study A3 - "Cross": Volatile arcane magic meshed into an orb of powerful force. I believe this spell was used to disorient foes and make them more vulnerable to the pain of death magic... By ancient scriptures, this spell was a ritual used as an act of discipline.
Sanctum Catacombs Entrance 1
For the souls who have traversed this world, they will reside within this tomb forever if they have both given up and not proven themselves worthy for redemption.
Sanctum Catacombs Entrance 2
The former morality of the dead who rest here spanned the intentions of good and evil. Now they will no longer hear the voices of lawful reason, but only of chaotic madness.
