Five Visions

World of Origin Nalthis

I saw men who placed themselves above others, and I saw them cast down.

Vivenna quoting one of the Five Visions[1]

The Five Visions were a teaching in Austrism. They were guidelines spoken by the First Returned Vo, as a message from Austre.[2]

They taught the believers of Austre to be patient[3], humble, sacrificing, selfless,[4] understanding[5] and to not be ostentatious [6], selfish[7] or place themselves above others[1].

In following that, every noble or rich family was obligated by tradition to provide one person to the monasteries. [7]
