MCXXIX, forthcoming. Recorded by Underscribe Shipal Thus did the Shadow of Earth slay Cayde-7. Then a visitor approached the throne of the Joyous Emperor and proffered himself before the Generous Host. He was Cayde-7, whose origins are recounted in MCXXXVII. ^ Cayde-7 knelt at the Emperor's feet, and kissed his boots, saying: "Your truest servant is here." And the Emperor was pleased, for he thought that this one would make a very fine Shadow. But the true Shadow of Earth, jealous of the Emperor's love, cut down Cayde-7 where he stood in the Emperor's throne room, and then dealt with his ruins in such a way as to ensure that there would never be a Cayde-8. The Emperor was pleased, and that night there was a great feast aboard the Leviathan. ^ A note to Underscribe Shipal: Entry MCXXXVII appears to be missing. Please reattach it to this account, and delete this footnote upon rectifying this error.
