Hey everyone, I'm back again with another lore post! For those who don't know, tis I, the Tree of Ruin. This is my very first master post, and it's focused on Rasputin, the last of the Warminds. Here I will post links to my interpretations/explanations of each Rasputin-related card.

Yeah i know i'll probably be hated for this i believe those original story rumors. That a warmind knew something about the Traveler and the speaker. While i'm not throwing the whole the Traveler is evil thing i just think the Traveler is human and wants to survive. In The Book of sorrows the Traveler helped other species and abandoned them when they were in danger of loosing. I believe the Traveler also helps Species because that's all it can do it has no means of defending itself so it relies on the people it helps to defeat its enemies. So in Rasputin 5 the Traveler is getting ready to leave again and Rasputin see's this and prevents it from leaving by attacking it. I believe this is what the knife having a million blades is a reference to in Traveler 3 card. So this leads me to wonder is the Traveler's sacrifice really a sacrifice or is its dormancy caused by the damage inflicted by Rasputin to prevent it from leaving. The Speaker and the member's of the consensus perhaps could know this a dark secret being passed down through the ages to a select few Consensus members. The warmind rasputin knowing the Truth.
