=== ''Beholders'' ===
These creatures are beasts made up of eyes and malice. Beholders possess nine eye stalks and one central eye. That central eye is the Beholder’s greatest weapon. The central eye of a beholder can disconnect any creature from reality. While in the eye of the beholder, even Material Gods are often powerless. Only those whose skill goes beyond the world can hope to fight their way out of this death trap. 

However, even if one destroys the main eye, the other eye stalks of a Beholder are deadly. Each one can bend and twist reality in different ways. The arsenal of each Beholder is different meaning that unless a group has scouted the monster, there is no way to tell what exactly a Beholder can warp. 

Additionally, the flesh of a Beholder is incredibly strong and resistant to magic. Only the strongest warriors can pierce the abomination’s thick hide. Most mages cannot even dream of effecting a Beholder with magic. The strongest spells, and only the strongest spells, will do. To illustrate the point, a general once ignited more than 60 tons of dynamite inside a cave that housed a Beholder. After a few minutes, the Beholder turned the rubbled it was buried under to feathers and began massacring the army that had dared to attack it. Eyewitnesses report the create barely had a scratch on it. 

With all this being said, a Beholder is most dangerous when it is asleep. While resting a Beholder can shift the world around it with its dreams. So far it is unknown if Beholders have a limit to this power. Other scholars have pondered the question if people truly know everything that Beholders have warped about the rings. This is a question that many sane scholars, who wish to remain sane, do not wish to ponder. 

Do Beholders have a weakness? If so, it has yet to be found. Empresses save us if they decide to ever unite. The only thing that Beholders hate more than everything in the world is another Beholder. 

It is also unknown what exactly Beholders eat. However, this volume proposes the following theory. There is evidence to suggest that those killed by Beholders ''often'' do not pass on to an afterlife. However, it has been proven by several groups that resurrections are possible after death by Beholder. It seems that this is no coincidence. The theory proposed is that Beholders are partially sustained by consuming the souls of those they consumed. There is also evidence to suggest that people dream two standard deviations less often within one mile of a Beholder than those not within proximity to a Beholder. It is also possible that Beholders eat dreams to supplement their diet.
