Isn't the revelations part basically moongazing and seeing the future, seeing as how Muun'Trivazja is actually fueled by the daemon of time.

No. Cognatism has always had this feature. This simply makes it more fleshed out and make more sense, as analysing patterns in things makes things easy to predict things ahead of time. You are not seeing the future, you are making a prediction that can be wrong.

I don't understand fully. Are you bending the Horror to your will, or are you acting as a proxy for it? Why is it providing you power without driving you insane?

Horrors are fed with information. The Horror takes in the information that you give it, being the things you see, read, hear and learn, and due to this makes an agreement with you in order to provide assistance in certain times to help with your learning, indirectly feeding it with knowledge. The Horror takes interest in the particular Cognat and uses that connection in order to learn. As I said above, imagine an audio link wherein the microphone of the horror is disabled. It can talk to you, only when it wants you to do something, and the rest of the time it simply uses you as a proxy to learn knowledge.

So what prompts it to learn things?

A Voidal Horror will always want to learn things. It's stuck in a realm where there is only so much that someone of that realm can learn, and will take opportunities to learn about the overworld. By holding a link with you, it will learn everything you have learned, and continue to learn. It will take in what you hear, what you think, what you read.  Why would something that thinks it knows everything not want to learn what it previously did not know?

It will go through processing via the Lore Team, be discussed in the Lore Mag and a verdict will be issued following that.

      Stein's Final Moments
      Alone, that was the feeling he felt, as he laid on the table in the surgical room in the Hohkmat clinic. Fear made itself  known as well, as he was recently cured from vampirism in that very room. The fear only grew as the restraints seemed to get tighter and the room spinning. Two others made there way in, separate, and at different times. They were once friends, family even if it came down to it. But his actions caused them to forget him as someone good. Hour's passed by as Stein, now called Almer, laid there on the surgical table, waiting for his fate to be decided. The door creaked open and his restraints came loose, allowing himself to sit up. His fate had been decided, the only thing he could do, was make it painless. The choices were simple, die a painful death, or be put to sleep, feeling nothing. The decision was simple, as he took the Nightsap juice given to him.
       
      Before drinking, memories of his life flashed in his mind, memories of his childhood on his farm with his family, that he had forgotten so long ago. Now taking a drink of the juice, memories of his time in Reinmar, the friends he made that grew into a family outside of his original home on the farm. And as he slowly drifted away, his memories were of his new friends, now wishing him dead. The last image that made it's way to his mind was everyone he knew, gathered together. Almost like a final farewell, even though he did not deserve it. As his death drew near a tear rolled down his face, before his heart stopped, his limbs and body turning cold, and his image, slowly fading away, into the darkness, as he drew his very last breath.
       
      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      OOC NOTE:
      Finally, after almost three months of playing as Stein/Njal/Almer, I have finally made the decision to pk him. This wasn't the ending I wanted for him, however this is the ending I am giving him. I am taking this time to thank everyone that was a part of his life, these past three months on the server have been a blast. Stein and myself have made a lot of friends that I hope to keep and play along side them with other characters I make. So for those reading this thank you and to anyone that knows, give a salute as "The Stone Fortress" has finally fallen.
       
      I will now take the time to thank those that have impacted Stein's life greatly @FunkehMelon @melonth @ickyNuN @confusedjester @Rocky_Wolf @SmothBM  @Irishmanmichael  and of course many more that I am sadly too lazy to actually search up and apologize for it. However though not everyone that has impacted Stein's life will be on here, I have not forgotten you and will never forget you. So thank you all for the fun three months, and I will see you all in my next lives <3!
