With Vyers as mediator, the peace treaty was signed. But we learned some startling truths at the conference.
It started off with Christian. Apparently he'd been waiting for this moment, to find out from the rulers of both countries why Hod had been destroyed.
He was about to exact revenge on Uncle and Father (though I don't think he was serious--it looked more like a bluff), but then Emperor Tyler and Emrls revealed the truth behind the destruction of Hod.
It wasn't Kimlasca that had destroyed Hod, but Malkuth, in order to keep Kimlasca from learning about the experiments it had been performing on Hod. Malkuth then used that as an excuse to declare war on Kimlasca. That's just the same as Akzeriuth!
Hod was destroyed through hyperresonance, which was already being researched at the time. They connected a fomicry subject, a child, to a device that artificially generated a hyperresonance. And that child was none other than Master Kyo!
I finally understand why Master Kyo knew so much about hyperresonance, about fomicry. He was a subject of fomicry experiments, too.
With everything that was revealed, it was decided to adjourn the conference for a short time. At least the peace treaty was signed, but still...
We have some time before things settle down and any decisions are made, so we decided to wander around Crystal City for a while. We can find out what we need to do by talking to Vyers when they're finished.
I just hope that the truth about Hod doesn't stir up any new problems...
Apparently the plan to lower the Outer Lands was agreed to at the treaty conference as well, and Crystal City will cooperate with Belkend in researching the miasma. I hope it all works out.
We headed for Sheridan to see about stopping the core's vibration.
