[Regis nods knowing how right her suggestion is. It is what he used to do when Cor was still here and it is what he will do once he hears back from Honerva and Ardyn, but they have both been here nearly as long as he has. Perhaps while he is explaining things, not only will something click, but she--as someone who has not been here as long--may put the facts together in a completely different way.]
We first learned of the Winged Lord and his fellow god, the Crawling One, a short time after arriving here when we discovered we could read some of the lore in the books we were helping the natives restore. These scraps were short, vague, and from many different sources, so it was only through research and discussion that we were able to link some of them together. The two appear to be this world's creator gods. First, the Crawling One existed alone. He devoured the earth and through him it became fertile, but had no life. Life only came when the Winged Lord appeared and began the strange relationship they have. Some sources say they merely played while others say their relationship was much more like that of a hunter and prey.
When we tried to ask the natives about these "missing gods" as I called them at the time, the natives either had no idea who we were talking about or realized they may have memories tied to them, only to find that part of their memories corrupted and in need of purging.
Oddly enough, just a few months ago, the natives seem to have discovered the Winged Lord again and held a celebration in his honor though none could agree on what exactly he looked like.
