Answer 1

The race of astral trainers in their day was highly developed through art, buildings, languages, explorations and magic, a civilization that through books tries to share its knowledge, but many have been lost and those who remain just another race (Miunir) are able to read . There is an NPC north of Thais who talks about the race of the Astral Formers.

Jogador: hi

Albinius: Greetings, pilgrim. Welcome to the halls of hope. We are the keepers of this temple and welcome everyone willing to contribute.
Jogador: job
Albinius: I find ways to unveil the secrets of the stars. Judging by this question, I doubt you follow my weekly publications concerning this research.
Jogador: astral shapers
Albinius: The Shapers were an advanced civilisation, well versed in art, construction, language and exploration of our world in their time. ...
Albinius: The foundations of this temple are testament to their genius and advanced understanding of complex problems. They were master craftsmen and excelled in magic.
Jogador: temple
Albinius: You already offered enough tomes for us to study and rebuild this temple. Thank you, my child.
Jogador: tome
Albinius: The Shapers have been eager to share and document their wisdom in any way possible. They knew many ways of preserving information, some of them probably not yet known to or even understandable by us ...
Albinius: Right now the most helpful records of the Shapers are the various tomes they wrote. You may still find some of them in the vicinity of Thais, some locked away in old chests, others robbed by feral creatures. ...
Albinius: They surely use them for terrible profane purposes so getting them back would be a service to the Shapers. Furthermore these tomes might contain everything we need to finish the temple.
Jogador: bye

Albinius: Farewell, my child.

"Astral Shapers

The little that is known about Astral Shapers is what NPC Albinius tells us in his lines, and also in 4 books (1, 2 and 3) that can be found in the Isle of the Kings library, and 4, which is in the Port Hope temple library.

Albinius tells us that the Shapers were a civilization well advanced for its time, experts in art, construction, languages ​​and exploration. The greatest testimony and testimony of all genius and advanced knowledge to solve the most complex problems, is the Great Temple known as Halls of Hope, located in the north of Thais where we observe that in addition to masters in art craft, Shapers dominated and stood out also in magic. The Shapers were eager to want to share and document all of their knowledge in any way, and knew many ways to preserve that information, some of which is probably not yet known or even understandable by us. Now the Shapers' most useful records were the various books they wrote. These books can be found around Thais, some locked in old chests, others stolen by ferocious creatures, who certainly stole it for the purpose of using them in something terrible. These books can contain everything we need to finish the temple and learn more about this incredible and mysterious civilization."

Who is the Miunir Breed?

In turn, a race developed in writing, little is known about it, the Miunir were the only ones to copy and "translate" many of the texts about the Shapers. Through my research it was understood that the Miunir race by translating the culture of Shapers ended up introducing their abilities in art, constructions, languages and explorations that in turn did not even share with their close friends and ended up being the only race to understand and translate the Astral Shapers.

"The studious Miunir race was the only one able to read the Astral Shapers' records. The Shapers' records were partially written in the same astral patterns found in other Miunir texts. The Miunir were the only ones to copy and "translate" many of the texts about the Shapers, storing them in vast libraries. Because of the Miunir's belief that knowledge is above all else, they refused to share what they knew with even their closest friends. When the orcs invaded the Miunir enclaves, most of the knowledge was destroyed and lost forever. Fortunately, some of the work on the Shapers has survived. However, the forbidden treasures of knowledge, which the Miunir had collected, were received with much more interest than the knowledge present in these works. Only recently has interest in Astral Shapers revived. Although the Miunir's works are often seen as part of the Shapers' records, the records alone are far more important and full of vital information. After being translated, copied and rewritten countless times, some of these texts, however, are now almost useless. The most useful texts are those written in ancient Miunir. However, since many selfish scientists found it interesting to write their own works in Miunir to show off, texts written in that language are no longer guaranteed quality."
