Lightbearers have always existed, in one form or another. Before the world fell, we could be found anywhere humanity needed us to be. We were the doctors and surgeons eradicating disease, the teachers and counsellors sharing knowledge; guides, benefactors and protectors of the lost, mistreated or oppressed. Then, as now, we held the heart and spirit of humanity as our torch and beacon. Then, as now, we sought to save humankind from its destructive infatuation with technology, debauchery and greed. And we failed. Though without us, the world would have fallen much sooner, and much harder than it inevitably did. Seeker Patrick, 'Diaries of Dusk'
